HOLY CHRIST!!!!

OK, mine was 800 x 600 (apparently I AM not only BLIND but retarded as well)

.

I switched it to 1024 x 780 and now I need to go and get my fuckin glasses to see the screen.

Just gonna have to go the blind-retard way.

JESUS!!

OK, I also fall into the blind and retarded category....

Just switched to 1024 x 780 as well.........

Now, I guess I need to use the Windows magnifier...

Guess this is what Occular Degeneration feels like!

I like it all tiny.......... besides I think you guys must be sitting too far back from the screen........ I think the correct way to determine if you are is to move your head forward 1cm ................... if your nose doesn't touch the monitor then you're too far away

Seriously though, high resolutions are designed for large monitors........ I used to use 800x600 on my old normal size one.

Just add another name to the Blind Folk from the US group.

I wear contact lenses and usually keep my res @ 800x600.

Hey! *shrug*
Blind and retarded ain't that bad.

It could be blind, deaf, broke,, and retarded.

Of those four things, which would your preference be? and in what order?

I think I'd take broke at the top of the list, since I am anyway.

Then I think it would be deaf.

The last one is hard, but I think I might have to take retarded over blind. I suppose you wouldn't really know any better if you were retarded

But being blind would scare me I think.......... it would just be too weird. (real blind I mean)

Not sure though........ I can imagine what being blind would be like, since I can close my eyes............. depends what the definition of retarded is I suppose.

Definately rather be deaf than blind though....... I think you'd feel less isolated being deaf.

err.............. yeah I rambled

Hmmmm...good points there, Dogster....

I believe I'd rather be retarded first.....then, I'd at least get a check!

Most definetly, I'd rather be deaf next. Not being able to hear the daily yackety, yackety, yack would be <span style='color:#005bff'>heavenly</span>....

Then, I'd rather be broke....but then again, I'd be getting that check....

Finally, the blind thing? I'm with you, Doggy. That would be scary. But scarier to be born that way, or suddenly find yourself that way?

Maybe it does cause blindness.....yep, I'd definetly rather NOT be blind!

DoggyDelicious · Post by **DoggyDelicious** » 18-10-04, 7:01 pm

Definately worse to become blind as opposed to being born that way............still sucks ass either way though

....and don't worry about what they say Mr T

.............. when they say it'll make ya go blind ...........they just mean you'll end up needing a pair of bi-foculs at some point............... you'd have to be slapping that fella 24 hours, 7 days, 52 weeks continuously and strenously for the real "blackout" blind to hit you

I think I'd need the Hubble to view pages at that resolution!!

That's only coz God doesn't need to see the stuff on his screen.
He can feel the force.

...or some such shit.

...What order.... ?
Gosh that's haaaaaarrrrrrd.

Functionally retarded would be at the top. Then I'd collect money from SS, and other agencies AND be able to work.

I HATE being broke, and seldom find myself that way, but if it was just a matter of very low {critical} funds while between jobs... That'd be No.2 with a bullet.

Deaf would be 3rd in any event. I would miss hearing my family members voices.
And I'd have to watch every movie I see twice in a sitting. So I could catch the dialogue and the action and put it all together to make the film.

Blind would be a B.I.T.C.H. No ifs, ands, or buts.
Definitely worse to lose sight after having it tho.

But think of it.
With 3 of the 4 choices, you get money from a few government agencies to cover all your living expenses.
From clothes to transportation and everything in between.
