WTAF?
Is this a new thing? Do people know how absolutely ridiculous they look? (Seen people wearing them on tv.)
I thought false eyelashes that make women look like Bambi were bad enough..

I don't understand the issue. Presumably people are wearing these at home and not 'out' in public?

Thanks a lot, I'm going to be giggling when I'm trying to sleep now! ;-)
(it would be an awesome name for a pub, though..)

I'm assuming it's about those false eyelashes that are like a caricature of false lashes. They look more like caterpillars than slugs, imo, but I agree that they're hideous. I'm entitled to my opinion, and so long as I don't tell someone they personally look ridiculous, I don't see a problem with that.

I've only seen them online, and I imagine few women actually wear them.

I suspect the op might be talking about the under eye patches meant to help puffy, tired eyes. If not them, then I’ve no idea what they’re on about!

Are you referring to eyebrows?

What on earth are you on about?

Regardless, though, it’s irrelevant whether you happen to like or dislike the way someone looks. Whatever ‘eye things that look like slugs’ are, people aren’t obliged to look the way you want them to look. They probably aren’t keen on your personal taste either, FWIW.

Not seen these? What are they? Can you link to something?

Let's put women down about their appearance yet again!

Yawn.
