Think about it

(Cue old timey radio announcer's voice) "Nine out of 10 people wear sunglasses to hide their dead eyes."

Or at least that's the theory I'm going with, as I waved across a 4-way stop at a burly man in shades to make his turn before me. He just sat there with a dead expression until I threw up my arms ("I trying to be nice here, even if I call you every forbidden, four-letter Anglo-Saxon word in the book while I'm being nice").

Hollywood types, government agents (you're not conflicted about mortality if you're willing to take a bullet for a politician) ... What are they trying to hide with those shades? The Hollywood types can easily afford surgery to fix cataracts or whatever damage the sun inflicts. Then there's the guys wearing 80's style mirrored sunglasses. Most of the ones I've known tend to live about a decade off from the real world, so I really don't want to know what they're hiding.

So what about you?
