I’m saving your comment, as you have succinctly explained it better than I ever could. 👍

Yes! The bottom left, I got 2 pairs of those from eBay for $7.16 USD.

They’re not suitable for everyday wear, but if you lose your nearsighted glasses, it’s better than nothing. So, a glovebox item…

They’re called pinhole glasses.

Nah, I just don’t want others around me. It’s a wonder I ever had a cameraman a few times…

Damn homie, you’re even more nearsighted than I am. I start losing focus about 18cm from my eyeball, but can see stuff up close almost like a microscope!

Here’s my collection of corrective lenses…

I find the bifocals in the top right best for me.

You lost the game… 👌

My natural vision is like 20/500, very nearsighted.

I’m pretty good with BMX flatland bicycle balance tricks, so good in fact that I can do a number of them blindfolded, as it allows me to focus not on my vision but on my balance. So that to me is mostly natural, and doesn’t even require much visual input on open flatland.

But to play a 2 player game, where my vision requires a moment to adapt my vision and focus from near to far and back, plus not get confused by the shear lines from my glasses as I turn my head, then it’s not so easy to get that natural sense you speak of.

Sigh, bad vision sucks, even with glasses…

LOL!

Put it this way, I refuse to ever again work for any company that insists on gambling games to assign job duties.

At least that first company adjusted their tactics for assigning duties and eliminated the gambling factor.

Wait wait, you wear underpants?

Well this is a real game changer!..

Yeah, every single time I have encountered someone that insisted me to play the game, they can’t and won’t hold their hand sign long enough for my eyes to even focus on.

They could just as soon use that nearsighted eye refocus time to change their hand sign and always win.

20/500 eyesight sucks, glasses or not…

I’m loosely familiar with that game too, but damn that would just make hand signs effectively impossible for me…

Ultimately, because both me and another skilled tech felt uncomfortable in the same fast-paced way they’d play that game, they ended up shifting away from RPS towards something like a round-robin 2 week schedule for miscellaneous job duties.

Hey, in such a small shop, I get it, it seemed like a fun seemingly simple way to assign job duties across ~8 to 10 employees, but me and one of the other experienced techs just couldn’t process the game at the speed the managers demanded.

So we ever so politely requested they change the method they used to assign the dirty job duties. We ultimately figured out how to balance the workload more towards which employee was better at what, like I’m better with heavy loads such as trash, another employee better at cleaning the toilet, and new employees got the vacuum duty.

Interesting approach, which I just briefly tried.

Apparently I have dyslexia of the hands, as whether I think Paper or Scissors, I’ll just end up throwing out an incomplete arbitrary hand signal with 3 fingers…

I dunno, my mind just isn’t geared at making nor recognizing arbitrary hand/finger signs. They serve no purpose in my mind.

Now when the hand is actually doing something, like turning a wrench, grabbing a bottle, tying shoes, well yeah I totally recognize what’s going on no problem.

But hand signals in the air make about as much sense to me as trying to transcribe some dude playing air guitar into actual sheet music. There’s nothing there, the hands are moving without a purpose!

It probably is categorized as some sort of disability, one which I’m sure the great USA wouldn’t even recognize.

My vision without glasses is extremely nearsighted, like 20/500 nearsighted. And I didn’t get glasses until age 8, which means I didn’t adapt very well to recognizing detailed anatomy such as facial expressions or hand shapes quickly.

Its not that I can’t, I’m just too slow at recognizing such features in motion to be of any everyday expected practical use.

I don’t have to look at either my nor your feet to walk though.

However, I do have to look at the hand sign you threw out in RPS, interpret that into the associated word, make sure I didn’t mix up my vs your hand signals, interpret the logic, determine if it was a win/lose/draw, and keep count?

Put it this way, short of the middle finger, peace symbol, or thumbs up, I’m absolutely worthless for anything even resembling sign language.

Umm, yeah, that’s how they assigned toilet cleaning, trash, vacuum the floor duties, etc.

It was a tech shop, we had a grand total of like 8 employees max.

Work managers played in like 3 seconds flat to assign job duties.

I threatened to quit if that’s what they expected of me. They ended up finding other ways to assign job duties.

I’ve had work managers request me to play before, to assign job duties. They’d play in 3 seconds flat, and wouldn’t slow down for you.

I refused to play, just because how quickly they expected the game to go. I wasn’t the only employee in that slow RPS boat either.

I have the right to wipe my ass with a pinecone.

You have the right to tell me that’s not the right thing to do.

So, which of us is right? 🤔

💩

China invented gunpowder.

'nuff said.

No no, you fell for my bait. You need not apologize, I’m just a dipshit that can’t remember when to stop eating mushrooms.

Have confidence in yourself, and don’t eat the freaky weird shrooms…
