To be highly pee'd off with dh for booking the fight in 3d when my parents here visiting and dad cant watch 3d!!how rude!

[highhopes2010]

in a nutshell.parents visiting us tonight and dh has just booked the harrison fight in 3d when my dad cant watch 3d!im really pissed off over this.i told him while he was ordering it my dad cant watch 3d for long.can be switched over to normal but my dad wont say if its affecting him.i just think its one night,get over the 3d thing for 1 night ffs.

Sounds like 2 issues - not being listened to by DH and an over developed sense of responsibility for DF. DH should have been more thoughful, DF should speak up for himself. It's not a big deal though - come on Haye

hmm agree actually now ive calmed down a bit.my df normally will speak up for self just keeps things to himself bit more when at other peoples houses.

and yes come on Haye.

Just out of interest why can't you Dad wathc 3D?

not finding it a big deal now either thanx pixie.

I don't understand.

Are you talking about television?

yes over.its dh's new toy,so he cant stop playing with it!

haye and harrison fight in m/r now.

Come on haye

He is UTTERLY gorgeous though isn't he!?! salacious

I was really upset when my dh booked the cinema in 3d and he knows I can't watch 3d, it gives me a migrane. My dd1 can't watch it either

Not being listend to and people who are close to me forgetting things that make my life hell does upset me, but it doesn't change anything

Wow!

Omg he won that well quick

woo hoo haye

Woo hoo indeed and wee wee wah wah

want my 15quid back!

now am upset at paying that for 3 rounds!just told dh he has to watch it for a week to get monies worth!

have you heard the crowd!

Memoo - I can't watch 3d either (unfortunately as it's cool) it makes me feel sick (like motion sickness).

sorry memoo my df eyes go funny with it

Think you need more wine - calm down and enjoy the half-naked Haye fest

agreed pinkie.

Some people can't watch 3D (when I say can't, as in can't get the "benefit" of it) if they dont have binocular vision.

Binocular vision is where your eyes are working together, making a sort of panoramic shot of the world. If you dont have binocular vision, each eye sees separately and your brain sort of makes up the bit in the middle.

One of the reasons opthamologists try and "correct" young children with a squint is to achieve binocular vision by a certain age. If you dont have it by age 3 or 4 I think then you never achieve it, apparently.

The actual lazy eye thing can be fixed (generally) with surgery to tighten the muscle etc but a truly successful outcome gets the eyes working together.

If you dont have binocular vision, it doesn't really matter, but those 3D pictures which are loads of dots but with a picture "hidden" in them, mean nothing, parallel parking can be difficult, and you will probaby never be a ping-pong champion!

I dont have binocular vision, they never managed to achieve it, but my eyesight has improved so much since I was a little kid that I dont really care. To be able to live life with both eyes pointing in the "right" direction, and see perfectly with only the help of normal contact lenses in a fairly "mild" prescription is truly liberating compared to my original prognosis.
