Goggles!
 
Won a pair of goggles similar to these today. :D They've got opaque welding lenses so I'll need to get those switched for regular sunglass lenses by my optician - fingers crossed it doesn't cost too much.

I remember someone asking where they could find sunglasses with the metal sideguards - these are they. They're the same ones Doctor Steel wears. Ebay has 'em. Searching for "vintage goggles" and trying every week will get you some.

sweet, my boyfriend would be so jealous

Saphyra Runa 07-19-2007 06:37 PM

Hmmm, I have seen something like those at a local gun show in a military surplus vendor booth. Now I shall keep my eyes peeled.

biohazard 07-19-2007 08:55 PM

Very nice goggles. Do you sue them instead of glasses? I have to use glasses, but I sometimes use transparent contact lenses.

c130 07-20-2007 03:21 AM

Nah. I want them as sunglasses and mad scientist apparel. :D

the-broken-harlequin 07-20-2007 11:43 AM

They are really nice.
Damnit! All I have is these shitty goggles.
And yes, I got them free with a subscription to a science magazine.

the-broken-harlequin 07-20-2007 11:54 AM

You have reminded me of this spy gear toy (http://www.spygear.net/images/toys/spyLightHand.jpg )
It may be a bit cyber but I still think it would look good.

Solumina 07-20-2007 11:56 AM

...what does it do? o.0

maggot 07-20-2007 12:02 PM

It has lights on your fingers. It's something a 12-year-old would like.

Yeah, but I would just like wearing it and not using it.
Maybe to blind angry rednecks though.

maggot 07-20-2007 12:27 PM

A cheap plastic thing with rubber tubes?


If anyone other than a kid wore it, everyone would make fun of them.

If a kid wore it, all their friends would make fun of them.

Oh how you amuse me :D

Underwater Ophelia 07-20-2007 01:47 PM

I totally had one of those. And it was COOL.

You don't need a kids toy to look like a 12yr old, btw. You do a fine job of it as it is.

Ugh. Just because I thought it was cool doesn't mean it was.

Jesus, don't use my words to try to prove your point. I'd swallow them up and piss them out so you couldn't quote me.

c130 07-20-2007 02:54 PM

Guys. Shut the hell up. NONE of you is looking terribly mature right now, in any of the threads I've poked my nose into recently. Please, drop all this stupid bickering. You're all old enough to know better.


Anyway, back to the goggles. I wanna see what goggles you folk have. Photos and lots of posing please!

Two more LED lights, longer tubes and some black Under Armor type gloves could lend to something better.

And nooooooooo, broken-harlequin, this does not give you the right to gloat.

Clockwork 07-20-2007 05:56 PM

Mighty fine goggles you won there, c130. IMO, they look a bit bland, but shaded lenses should work wonders on them I think.

Aaroneet 07-20-2007 06:41 PM

I have never seen goggles like those. Nice :).

maggot 07-20-2007 09:46 PM

Dude. I fucking LOVE bickering. You have no clue.



Especially because of the court shit coming up.

Edward Strange 07-21-2007 04:01 PM

"Court shit?"

Anyway, goggles are AWSE! I can't really pull them off because of glasses and things..
But I would just love to have a pair of funky steampunk goggles.

I look quite young on the internet but I look about fifteen years old in real life.
And why thank you Vyvian blackthorne for such wonderful compliments. See you in the afterlife!

Tha Duckman 07-21-2007 04:32 PM

I have black bug eye goggles, a white pair with spinning red swirls on the lenses and and ancient pair of Wilson welding goggles.

ROFL!!! That's so cute!

You could wear those to a rave or something.

maggot 07-21-2007 09:06 PM

At the military surplus store today I saw awesome goggles for 25 bucks. Time to save up. :3

honeythorn 07-22-2007 06:13 AM

Ooooh I like those C130 :) Steampunk is slowly infiltrating me I suspect.

Saddiction 07-22-2007 09:35 AM

I only have 2 pairs of goggles at the moment.

The first pair I bought from an army surplus shop:

The second pair are safety goggles that I bought off ebay for like $12:

Underwater Ophelia 07-23-2007 08:51 AM

The whole cyber thing escapes me. The goggles, the plastic hair...all of it. I'm not putting it down, you see, it just confuses me.

c130 07-23-2007 09:16 AM

Live and let live.

Underwater Ophelia 07-23-2007 09:58 AM

Right, right. That wasn't what I was saying. I just don't "get it."

maggot 07-23-2007 11:24 AM

I don't get the weird plastic goggles and plastic hair either >>


If they were actual goggles, it would be cool, though.
LIKE WHAT SOME RIVETHEADS WEAR SOMETIMES.

Let's see yours, jerk.

maggot 07-23-2007 11:33 AM

I'm still anticipating buying them :P

I DON'T HAVE 25 BUCKS BECAUSE I'M SO POOR.
I need a job.


But they're awesome :o

Only one pair happens to be plastic btw :P
$25 that's it? Yeah, you need a job, or mug old ladies for their change purse.

maggot 07-23-2007 11:43 AM

That works too. :p


I have a bunch of checks to cash, though, so hopefully I'll be able to get them soon. :O

KontanKarite 07-23-2007 12:37 PM

I have a pair of black ones (made of metal), and a cheap pair of silver ones that I happened to like cause they looked rather sleek.

Oh, and cyber always rules, especially when it's mixed with Victorian style. :D

maggot 07-23-2007 12:52 PM

Neovictorian can be pretty cool.

KontanKarite 07-23-2007 12:54 PM

Yes it can.

c130 07-23-2007 01:54 PM

Steampunk's cooler tho.

maggot 07-23-2007 01:57 PM

Your mom is cooler.

c130 07-23-2007 02:15 PM

Cool as ice, maggz.

maggot 07-23-2007 02:16 PM

My father said "cool as a cucumber" once. I laughed at him.

Solumina 07-23-2007 02:48 PM

hehehe parents say the silliest things, especially when they are trying to be cool

c130 07-23-2007 02:54 PM

"Help! Help! I'm being chased by a monster who's trying to relate to me!"

Solumina 07-23-2007 02:58 PM

*giggle**bounce**giggle**crash*
damn you, you made me fall off my chair

c130 07-24-2007 01:49 AM

Apologies. :P

c130 07-25-2007 03:46 AM

Yaaaaaaay my new goggles arrived. :D
