yes, that's the number of eyes you have
ahahahaha
if you have good eyesight you haven't spent enough time hunched over a monitor
Can't tell if typo or Gabe being like a child and being cutesy...
It's deteriorated just enough that I can have them now and I see that I was justified. These things are baller.
Also this isn't a Mike story is it? Maybe some weird reversal of him going for LASIK?
Not that I was ever going to be those things anyway but I would have had the opportunity to fail at them for reasons other than eyesight!

Also, not wearing glasses is how I've managed to fly under the radar. Cool girls don't find out I'm a geek until it's too late.
Our kids don't need them yet, hope they won't.

I liked that book, it was better than the movie.
Indeed, I here they're all the rage these days. Glasses have become a fashion statement.
I'm with you. I think they've been heading in a direction for the last few years that isn't really my favourite type of comedy, but this strip is right back in my wheelhouse.

Also, hooray for never having glasses/contacts! I'll take any kind of derision bestowed upon me to not have to worry about that every day. The idea of using contact solution and putting things in my eyes gives me the creeps...

Lasik as the name implies uses lasers to adjust the shape of the cornea which can correct bad vision in some cases. The last panel implies that Gabe squirmed around in his seat so that the lasers mangled his flesh.
fucking lasers, how do they work?

Its almost certainly a Tychpo.
And I just wanted to chime in and say that this comic is wonderful too!
Anyway, that was cool.
These days? For the last few decades at least.
... the humanity ...

The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun.
I meant that it's crudely drawn and just superimposed over his normal hair, resulting in an image that just doesn't work for me.

Superimposed...what are you talking about? That's a laser burn that's burned his hair away.
The way the long bottom curve of the hair cuts in under the scar is kind of distracting in a biology/physics-defying way. (Unless Gabe uses a gallon of hairspray, although in that case his hair would be flammable and the last panel may have had to have been censored.) It's over-dramatic to suggest it ruins the strip, but I do see where she/he's coming from.
You know how some people are overly bothered by tangents? (Winky face)
