Thank you, Specsavers

This is going to be a very short article, but I hope you’ll all agree that it’s rather worthwhile.

I have recently succumbed to the purchase of new glasses. The effort I had to go to in order to actually make a purchase from Specsavers would make me howl with frustration if I even tried to recount it, so I won’t bother. But in the process of finding the new glasses, I became aware of a very special feature on the Specsavers website.

They have uploaded a picture of every pair of glasses they sell, and offered you the opportunity to “try them on digitally” by uploading a photo of yourself and superimposing the glasses over the top. A pointless process, I feel, and immediately open to abuse. Naturally, I abused it. Here is the result.

Well, it entertained me anyway.
