I'm leaving the Escapist.

Shit, man.
I was going to come in to say the whole "kthxbai" thing but... shit dude. Hope your eyes get better soon.

I stopped reading half way through. I don't have to come up with any research. I have enough research on my plate for my dissertation.

There's a quantity of research just at the other end of that search bar at the top right of your screen. If you're interested, go find it.

You're a year younger than me, which would also put us equal at the early years of our graduate school education. Unless you've managed to skip a few grades (in which case I would question your devotion to this pseudo-scientific nonsense despite your obvious intellect), you are in no position to write a dissertation just yet. And if some prof does allow it, kindly tell me how, as I've evidently picked the wrong university. And yes, it is absolutely your job to justify your claims with solid evidence. Shit, a single paper showing explicitly what you stated (varying degrees of red/blue light contribution to the overall emission spectrum of a light source have distinct physiological consequences, more specifically insomnia and similar sleep disruptions) would be sufficient to get me to shut up...

Yeah, I'll resume reading more those abstracts on sleep cycles. Before you complain, I'm not saying those aren't interesting observations. My problem the distinct establishment of causation over correlation, which is lacking thus far.

If he really is going to watch this thread until its conclusion, maybe we should let him go guys

Seriously though, good luck with what you've got man! Live long and Prosper.

What are you talking about? Did you even check the flag? I live in the UK. I don't know how it works in America so I can't pass comment, but here.

I'm 21.

Most people go to university at the age of 18. A 3 year honours degree requires you do a dissertation in your third year. I'm in my third year of university now.

And if I were having a full on debate with you, I would source it. But I'm not going to go rounding up sources for something as unimportant as this. I've got enough to be doing.

Ah, gotcha. I've only heard dissertation refer to a doctoral thesis, not a simple bachelor thesis. Pardon my confusion here, but I hope you can see how outlandish your previous claims look from my point of view.

 

[TheRightToArmBears]

That sucks... I would hate for that to happen to me...

But good luck for the future Hope you get better!

Anyway, when my mother and the optometrist were talking to each other, I overheard the word "astigmatism" being thrown around. So is anyone's wondering what exactly I have, that's the best answer I can give you.

Now here's a fun fact: light from monitors is not different from other light sources, at all. If staring at the monitor is going to make you blind, so will staring at the sun, a lamp, car headlights, digital clocks, candles, etc.

Fix'd.

Make more sense now? And I'm pretty certain an Optometrist knows what he's talking about.

Maybe just turning to brightness down would do a lot of good.

Well so as the the internet ways go, people meet, only to never see them again. Well goodbye, have a good life, and live in peace.

 

[Blimey]

I have never seen a porno in my life, let alone masturbated to one.

That's probably one of the things you should try before going blind.

Oh my god, best reply of the day.

Also, sorry to hear about your eyes. Get better soon and all that.

Laser surgery is not extremely expensive,and many health insurance companies cover it.

When I say severely, I mean from 30 hours per week minimum to 6 hours per week maximum.

you could sped 15-30 mins a week on here. that's all you really need. It's just about time management mixed with priorities.3
