Uncertainty is the nature of the beast.

I've caught a lot of abuse from people who tried to return CDs/DVDs that they've spent a meager amount of money on, knowing full well that there's no guarantee that the disc is perfect. If our production associates took the time to listen through/otherwise QC every piece of media that gets put on the floor, there'd be no time for actual productivity.

(Besides, at 1.99 for a CD, 2.99 for DVDs, 99 cents for cassettes, LPs, and VHS ... it's not a huge loss. It's really not a huge loss.)

$1.99 for a CD? A CD at the thrift shop I mentioned costs 20 kroner, that's $3.34. At a normal record store the price would be 99 kroner if you're lucky, that's $16.70.

Kicking off over a quid/2 quid

I've been bothered for awhile by my eye alignment, and maybe I just now really noticed it, or it's become more prominent. I think I might have Strabismus (wall eyes), and it's not doing any favors for my self-esteem. I noticed, especially from this photo that my eyes are seriously not lining up. I wish I could not get bent out of shape about this, but I'm kind of upset.

I don't think it's a big deal. My eyes are at different horizontal positions. Sometimes it looks silly in photos but not everyone can be perfectly symmetrical.

Mate one of my pals is like this, he is a bit cross eyed and gets stunners. Nothing to worry about.

I genuinely would not have noticed had you not said.

You've got a nice head of hair also. I'm 24 and balding.

We don't get to choose stuff like that we are born with it so don't feel bad instead own it, make your peace with it and be alright with it, i mean, what else can you do?

I know this is easier said than done, but if you are good person ppl will like you regardless if you feel self conscious about your eye.

I have strabismus as well. My left eye used to turn inwards so badly when I was a kid that I had to have it surgically fixed when I was about 10 or 11. It certainly didn't help me make many friends in elementary school.
