(AP) A man sued the New Orleans Police Department, claiming he was harassed by an officer who threatened to arrest him for wearing a black pinstriped skirt to municipal court.

Still have glasses with arms on the sides?? You’re so not with it dude! Really though, you aren’t. Just kidding. Of course these glasses are unique using a bridge piercing to be held up but they really are not practical for everyone. Have no fear though, you can always go with “brain node” glasses instead…
Eh, maybe you glass wearers should just stick to the glasses or those wacky contacts.
