Severe nearsightedness is especially bad when skinny dipping in mixed company. Now that I have had cataract surgery, am farsighted, and 72 years old, nobody seems to want to go skinny dipping any more. Getting old has its downsides.

I know what you mean.

Public swimming pool (without glasses):

You can't imagine how many women wear black swimsuits and what it means when this is the only feature by which you can recognize your friend with whom you want to continue small talk.

Thermal bath (steam section without glasses; glasses are senseless because foggy):

It can be pretty embarrassing when you stare at people, trying to focus your gaze to identify your friend. They think it's voyeurism. If only they knew that voyeurism doesn't make much sense with -7 each at two meters away.

There's an app called " Uninstaller" to uninstall apps. Wonder if it will shave itself or not.

I posted this on FB and it was immediately removed as spam because I used the link, not the photo. I did now use the photo on a second try: I'm excited to see whether I'll get into FB jail for it.
