I tell them "I don't need them. No one can tell what I am thinking anyway." That really annoys them.

I prefer to say nothing at all. Generally the mockers of people wearing sunglasses are usually bigger tools than the actual sunglass wearers. [/ QUOTE ] |

Re: need more smart-ass comments to say to posers with sunglasses
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] A guy playing 1/2 NL at Foxwoods on Thursday kept looking at his cards for 5 minutes, finally I asked him if he could see his cards through the glasses and that he could take them off if he needed to because I already made the bet. He didn't like it too much, called, and lost. [/ QUOTE ] This whole thread sucks but on a moderately serious note if someone is taking a really long time I just look at the dealer and say "time" and the dealer will tell them they have X long to act. Cardrooms have actual limits for this kind of stuff, dealers work on tips, and winning players want to be dealt as many hands as possible. I could not care less at this point if someone is wearing sunglasses at the table, but I go out of my way to keep a game moving. [/ QUOTE ] I agree that I don't care, but it still cracks me up, especially when they play bad. I try not to, but I just can't stop laughing sometimes. |

Re: need more smart-ass comments to say to posers with sunglasses
I wear sunglasses some times for two reasons.
One: bright lights hurt my eyes and they've got freakin police spotlights on the tables where I play. I find I can play well longer with them. Two: It pisses people off. I don't were shades so dark you can't see my eyes, just enough to take the edge off the glare all around me. Still, nealy everyone at the table gives me [censored] about it. Sometimes I'm in the mood to do it just to bother people. I also often take my mp3 player with me. Some of the time I use it to listen to the morning news while I'm playing. Most of the time it's turned off so I can hear people making comments at me. I just like to pretend I can't hear people. It works out because I often have a song in my head anyway, and I'm bobbing my head to the beat. Without the headphones, I just look insane. I try hard to be pleasent at the table, alot of times I even converse with everyone even with my headphones on. Really, the head bobbing without the music making me look crazy is the biggest reason I wear them. "Nice glasses you homosexual poser. Why don't you take your glasses off, I can see your eyes and you are a smelly stupid doofus." "Keeping glass between our eyes keeps you from putting thoughts into my mind." |

Re: Sunglasses arent bad
[ QUOTE ]
I dont know why people give such a hard time about this issue. I dont personally wear shades myself, but last friday I wished I had. I was playing 10/20 and was sitting next to a player who consistently failed to protect his cards. 4 out of 5 times when he checked his cards, I had a clear view of them from the corner of my eye. This went on for 6 hours. I could almost always tell the rank, and most times I could tell the suit. Although this guy had horrendous body odor, I didnt ask to change seats because of the tremendous advantage I was getting by seeing 4 cards prelop. I wished I had my Oakleys with me because I thought my sidelong glances were too obvious. [/ QUOTE ] This opponent could certainly become less odious by showering and using deodorant, whereas your character-driven odiousness is probably not amenable to any such quick fixes. |

I've played with lots of guys with glasses that act like "normal" people. It's the guy who sits motionless after he acts with glasses on that kills me. |
