This is with all honesty the greatest pun I've seen in a pun chain.

Canadians wouldn't call you a pussy without saying "excuse me" or "sorry". Must be Russian.

Excuse me, but that's bullshit. You think we're all just so polite, eh buddy? Sorry, that was rude.

No, Canada...

[–]Iggyhopper 38 points39 points ago

I loved taking a handheld mirror, holding it against my stomach, looking down, and walking around my house.

[–]marvelty 15 points16 points ago

Even better: Hold it under your nose (breathe through your mouth so you don't fog it). Try to walk through doors without taking a giant step over the "barrier". This way you don't even have to look down :)

[–]MuuCao 18 points19 points ago

[–]Pays4Porn 220 points221 points ago

Amazon sells them.

[–]deesel18 444 points445 points ago

I can report back on the quality on Wednesday, September 5th...

[–]imitationcrabmeat 114 points115 points ago

Even got the one day shipping, eh?

[–]odigo2020 147 points148 points ago

Sounds like free two-day Prime to me.

[–]frame_of_mind 60 points61 points ago

Labor Day!

[–]Palivizumab 35 points36 points ago

Yeah the two-day shipping from the weekend and Labor Day arrives on Thursday.

[–]rycar88 35 points36 points ago

That's like years in reddit time

[–]Stupidusername3 7 points8 points ago

I'll leave a note for my grandkids to check out this time capsule thread when it loops back around.

[–]imitationcrabmeat 12 points13 points ago

Nah, cause I just ordered something with one day shipping since I need it on Wednesday, and the free two day was giving me Thursday.

[–]AMV_Ph34r 54 points55 points ago

I actually already have a pair. They do what they're supposed to and haven't broken in the few years I've had 'em.

Good for watching TV and redditing in bed too.

[–]adie5 13 points14 points ago

No distortion or some some other issues you can't see from the picture?

[–]AMV_Ph34r 2 points3 points ago

Not that I've noticed. They take a bit of getting used to but there's no apparent distortion or anything.

Edit: Oh, but they are just about impossible to wear over prescription glasses, so if you wear those, contacts are a good idea.

[–]iamapizza 2 points3 points ago

Do you feel disoriented when standing up?

[–]JPSE 13 points14 points ago

For ~20 bucks...

I'm curious as to if you can(have to) read from further or closer and if it blurs it in any way. I'm tempted to buy it too but I'll wait the two days and hope you bless us with a great review!

[–]serafina32 23 points24 points ago

Buying these. Buying them NOW

[–]Kelson4 7 points8 points ago

Just bought them.

[–]Chuttin 37 points38 points ago

Nice try, Bed Prism Spectacles sales rep...

[–]bubonis 431 points432 points ago

FWIW, these glasses were originally invented for medical purposes. Specifically, for patients who had surgery that requires them to lay flat on their backs parallel to the ground. They can't be tilted or have their head raised so to do things like watch TV or read a book with some degree of comfort they have these glasses (in different prismatic angles for different activities, FYI).

I know this because my brother underwent several surgical procedures which required that type of recovery and he had several pairs of these glasses so he could have something to do while he was recovering.

[–]captain_stewart 193 points194 points ago

Used in the movie Bucket List by jack Nicholson

[–]Stevoh 75 points76 points ago

I KNEW I SAW THOSE SOMEWHERE BEFORE

[–]6h057 13 points14 points ago

HIT THE CUTOFF MAN

[–]Gizank 43 points44 points ago

I was just going to say, "I wish I had these when I hurt my back, because then I wouldn't have hurt my neck."

[–]nj12 38 points39 points ago

Used in MRI machines to help claustrophobic patients. The patient can lay down and the glasses allow them to see out the tube.

[–]paid__shill 2 points3 points ago

Not actually designed for that, though. Most MRI scanners will have a mirror built into the head coil, although we use these in the research scanner whose coil is too tight for a mirror. They were sold as TV glasses for laying in bed, though, not from a medical supplier!

[–]orcak 29 points30 points ago

I've used them while I was in hospital when I broke my neck. I didn't like them really, I got nauseous.

[–]Rather_Dashing 41 points42 points ago

Nauseous because you had a broken neck, or were they difficult to read with?

[–]18-24-61-B-17-17-4 18 points19 points ago

Or possibly the pain meds as well.

[–]emomuffin 4 points5 points ago

What is going on with your username?

[–]MojaveRapelord 3 points4 points ago

definitely Russian spy code

soure: I'm not a communist

[–]bpcoxkr 3 points4 points ago

Probably difficult to read with. I had them for spine surgery. If you place them on your face right, its generally ok but it is super easy to get nauseous.

[–]Jewdoll_Fiddler 3 points4 points ago

no, you got nauseated

[–]CEQ2 3 points4 points ago

Literally just watched S01E01 of the Soprano's and Tony had them on in an MRI had no idea wtf he was wearing.

[–]drdiddlegg 45 points46 points ago

The reverse is also available for belaying! http://www.upskillclimbinggear.com/products/CU-Belay-Glasses.html

[–]FeebleOldMan 55 points56 points ago

What the hell AUD$139.95 (~USD$143)?!

Just buy the $18.50 book reading ones from Amazon and wear them upside down.

[–]Xandier_101 1 point2 points ago

It costs roughly $50 to ship something from amazon to australia and it usually takes about a month for it to arrive

Most sellers on amazon don't even ship to australia because of this

[–]guaranic 23 points24 points ago

Now why are those 600% more expensive?

[–]OriginalityIsDead 60 points61 points ago

Up costs extra.

[–]TallDarkNStupid 9 points10 points ago

They have to defy gravity...duh

[–]dillzy1986 10 points11 points ago

No surprise that the Australian ones are upside down and cost 600% more.

[–]I_TYPE_IN_ALL_CAPS 5 points6 points ago

$140 WITH NO SAFETY FEATURES? LOL.

[–]Ixilary 33 points34 points ago

That's not lazy, that's efficient.

[–]Hughtub 15 points16 points ago

No it's not. It's LAZY. Now I have to get back to smashing hydrogen and oxygen together to make enough water for my sponge bath.

[–]RecursiveInfinity 4 points5 points ago

Yeah, because smashing atoms is how you get them to bond, right?

[–]Belispeak 125 points126 points ago

These would be great for watching porn in bed.

[–]reddasi 24 points25 points ago

Excuse me Mr.Dick, you are blocking my view.

[–]Chachamaru 3 points4 points ago

[–]Reflextion 21 points22 points ago

i hate it when you want to read in bed but then you have to outstretch your arms above you and when you fall asleep the book slaps you on the face.

[–]Asiansensationz 19 points20 points ago

This was my favorite item from The Bucket List.

[–]Laplacelol 17 points18 points ago

They are generally known as recumbent glasses. They were originally made for people who could not sit up (i.e. after surgery, paralysis, bed rest, etc) many years ago. I recently made a pair for an older gentleman that was in a wheelchair and constantly looked down, so the prism in the Rx displaced the images so it would appear that he was looking straight ahead.

However the prescription version would not be made in this type as far as i know. :)

[–]fanmuch 63 points64 points ago

Take my money. TAKE IT.

[–]Gizank 23 points24 points ago

That is the most like Daffy Duck I have ever seen Donald Duck act.

[–]BassmanBiff 26 points27 points ago

This is the most like the Hulk I have ever seen a duck act.

[–]U_Cant_Touch_This 48 points49 points ago

Wouldn't the mirror make everything backwards and thus hindering your capability to read?

[–]neayaa 63 points64 points ago

[–]Kamikaze_Leprechaun 3 points4 points ago

Good. I was imagining having to hold books upside down to be able to read... hah...

[–]rock_kid 12 points13 points ago

I could be wrong, but I thought things like this worked with two mirrors somewhat facing each other. That allows you to see from a different angle and would double-flip the image so it's no backwards anymore.

[–]feckineejit 61 points62 points ago

No because you are laying down everything would be sideways

[–]534seeds 78 points79 points ago

[–]LegoMyCraigo 7 points8 points ago

I wish I had these to text at night in bed. Holding my phone up above me (I only have one pillow zzz) makes my arms tired, and laying on my side is an uncomfortable posture to text in. T_T

I'm lazy, I'll just see myself out..

[–]Franksters 9 points10 points ago

doing this or redditing in bed (bedditing?) also causes you to drop your phone on your face, which hurts a lot.

Edit: i dropped a "d".

[–]dizzylizzy20 71 points72 points ago

Wouldn't work for girls with big boobs..

[–]tehbau5 156 points157 points ago

Unless they pancake out like a lot of huge boobs do.

[–]xheylove 98 points99 points ago

As a girl with large boobs, I can confirm this happens. Also, buying these now!

[–]my_cock_in_barack 5 points6 points ago

you're buying pancakes?

[–]xheylove 2 points3 points ago

Pancakes are delicious. Why would you question that?

[–]xtfftc 32 points33 points ago

Please report when you get the glasses if the view from them is as awesome as I suspect it to be.

[–]xheylove 24 points25 points ago

I certainly will!

[–]RPrevolution 16 points17 points ago

Pictures would help

[–]Dave0312 2 points3 points ago

With pictures.

[–]MasterAardwolf 5 points6 points ago

Not sure if boob joke or genuine interest...

[–]herp_n_derp 4 points5 points ago

Going to need photographic evidence of this one.

[–]I_TYPE_IN_ALL_CAPS 17 points18 points ago

PIT WARMERS.

[–]eire1228 2 points3 points ago

not fake ones

[–]trixter21992251 2 points3 points ago

The word on Yahoo is real boobs pancake out when lying on the back, while implants don't.

[–]Who_Sharted 3 points4 points ago

Mmmmm...pancakes

[–]LakeRat 12 points13 points ago

Sure it would. Built-in book holder!

[–]skatehardaf 23 points24 points ago

or works even better for girls that have big boobs and like lookin at big boobs in a lazy manner.

[–]timothypjr 76 points77 points ago

You spelled "awesome as fuck" wrong.

[–]FartyNapkins 339 points340 points ago

Your own?

[–]Hughtub 18 points19 points ago

Would you fuck me? I'd fuck me.

[–]my2penniesworth 5 points6 points ago

My brother had to wear these to see his school books and dinner plates when he broke his neck. The cast they put on him went from his chest, up his neck and then around his forehead & had his head tilted up so he could not look down. I put these on and they were actually pretty cool.

[–]dougman82 5 points6 points ago

Gonna be honest here: I have NEVER been able to find a position in which I can read for any length of time. They ALL leave me with a stiff/painful neck or worse. What I have tried:

  • Sitting in a chair with the book down near my lap
  • Laying down with my head propped on a pillow
  • Laying on my side with one of my arms set elbow-out with the hand propping up my head
  • Laying on my stomach and propping my upper body up on my elbows
  • Sitting in a chair, twisting to the side with the book propped on the arm-rest
  • Laying on the bed on my stomach with my head/arms over the edge, holding the book below my head

I swear I will never be able to enjoy reading without a painful neck. If I didn't need prescription glasses to see, I would buy these things in a heartbeat

[–]stannyb 12 points13 points ago

I'm gonna look through these so hard.

[–]apostrotastrophe 40 points41 points ago

How lazy is it really to lie down instead of propping yourself up 45 degrees higher?

edit - from the replies here, it seems everyone has read this in a tone that gives the opposite message... I don't think it's any lazier. I would buy this.

[–]Pays4Porn 131 points132 points ago

Heart works harder. Lazy people know this.

[–]Hughtub 14 points15 points ago

Yeah, duh. It's like he's never even tried to be lazy. I mean, jeez. He's so lazy he didn't even try it out. Perhaps he tried to be lazy once, but just didn't have the work ethic in him to finish it.

[–]tehaleks 65 points66 points ago

If you're reading as you're falling asleep, those 45 degrees are not necessarily conducive to sleepiness.

However, if you're laying flat on your back and you raise the book in your hands, your hands start to get tired, sore, and fall asleep after awhile. Laying on your stomach to read sucks and is uncomfortable, and reading on your side is near impossible.

So for those of us who are avid bedtime-readers, this is great! No more flopping around while you continue your book and maintain the blood flow in your hands.

[–]joshjje 30 points31 points ago

Yeah I hate that. Have to turn every 10 minutes from being uncomfortable / various limbs falling asleep, then end up falling asleep on three propped up pillows and wake up feeling like I was hit by a truck, lol.

[–]lady_serenderpity 36 points37 points ago

I have neck and back problems and I tend to get sore from being propped up. I actually think these are an awesome idea.

[–]Chasmosaur 10 points11 points ago

As noted by bubonis, these are actually for medical purposes. If people are in recovery and need to lay still and flat, they use these to read or watch TV.

[–]mrdank 3 points4 points ago

I'm surprised there has been no mention of Elvis owning a pair of these.

[–]ChicagoBulls1984 5 points6 points ago

This would make video gaming in bed much more comfortable.

Wouldn't you have to hold whatever you're looking at upside down?

Lazy? It's fucking hard to tilt your head up while reading, and it aches like a motehrfucker afterwards. These are practical as fuck.

[–]naveenr 2 points3 points ago

not sure if i have my optics right, but wouldnt that give an upside down image

You can just turn the book upside down. If it were mirrored, that would be a problem.
