Wearing hats inside is fine, but agree about the sunglasses.

I think away from the beach or pool full stop you shouldn't be topless, particularly if you are either a scrawny and pale or fat and covered in tattoo's Englishman.

I wear glasses and have prescription sunglasses, it is a pain having to swap and putting the pair that you aren't wearing in a pocket but I don't want to go the surgery or contact lense route and definately don't want reactalights (sp?) as only weirdo's have them so even though having two pairs and swapping is a pain I will happily do it.

Idiot.
Not really when it's happened to me.

I can't see if my glasses are off and often just have prescription sunglasses on, especially when driving.

I've been asked to remove my sunglasses because "it's rude" but once I explained, and showed the thick lenses, they apologies and all is well.

I came through Heathrow yesterday and the amount of 'Hipster' pricks wearing sun glasses indoors was amazing, I don't know who they think they are!? Unless you're Slash you can't get away with it.

I am probably the odd one out as sometimes I have to wear sunglasses indoors due to a problem with one of my eyes. Some days its very sensitive to light , even ordinary office lighting so I have to wear sunglasses indoors.

I'm thinking of having a sign made up to hang around my neck as I'm sick of all the comments and having to explain it over and over and over.

But 99.99% of people wearing sunglasses indoors are tts I assume trying to look important. And failing.

Anyone wearing sunglasses anywhere that sunlight is not out, is an idiot. That includes drives wearing them when its not even sunny!
That'll be just about every single female Range Rover driver then.
I always wear my sunglasses when driving I find it easier on the eyes, but then I do drive a Range Rover (so I am obviously a Tw@t anyway). I was not female the last time I looked though.

Do you wear them indoors?

These aren't paedo. I've got similar Oakleys, although I take them off when in the vicinity of schools and play parks, just in case.

Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder?

Also, wearing a hat inside if you're a man proves you're an oaf.

Yes, they're fine.

What's not fine is the Lycra you probably wear whilst riding in the middle if the road hitting cars for being too close. On the road.

You probably kill animals in your spare time.

I used to get bad migraines. This often helped reduce the onset or severity if I was out and about when it started.

I think sunglasses in a shop is fine, if you are feeling sick/hungover or simply just want to shop and not interact with anybody else. People aren't always having a good day!

My dad used to wear them for his Macular Degeneration.

Towards the end of his life he was registered blind, but still had a car and a driving license. biggrin

So beware!

When I was in the Army I heard a good sunglasses story, knowing who was involved I would say it could very well be true.
A mate goes on leave, he goes to another soldiers home, they then proceed to go on a several day bender.
One night they go into an unfamiliar pub, there was a strange looking bloke wearing sunglasses, hanging around the pool table staring them down, after a while my mate has had enough, he walks to the gents and on his way passes sunglasses, where upon he throws his pint of Guinness in sunglasses face shouting 'whose fking staring now'.
Turns out the bloke was blind, my mate caught a fairly severe beating for his trouble.
