BALTIMORE—Perplexed by the method’s failure to soothe his discomfort, local man Drew Lindstrom confirmed Wednesday that his eye remained itchy and irritated, even after 30 minutes of constant rubbing. “I’ve been getting in there and really working at it with my knuckle, but if anything, it looks even more bloodshot now,” said the puffy-eyed 24-year-old, wondering aloud how it was possible for the redness and inflammation to have worsened since he began intensely kneading his cornea with an unwashed thumb. “Seriously, I don’t get it. No matter how hard I dig my knuckle into this sucker, it’s still not feeling any better. Maybe I just haven’t gone deep enough yet? I’ll give it 15 more minutes, but my hand’s really starting to cramp.” At press time, reports confirmed the pressure had subsided and Lindstrom was feeling much better after he had finally massaged his eyeball hard enough for it to burst.

This is literally my life right now

Trial pair of contacts love good rubs

Haha! I’ve been doing that all night. I look like The Terminator now

For best results, make sure to rub eye after touching a public drinking fountain or the door knob of a public entrance to a heavily trafficked building.

1. Are you rubbing the correct eye? 2. Try rubbing for an hour 3. Use bleach, disinfectant or bright lights 4. Have a viagra (men), create a distraction 5. Ask mom to give you a remedy

If you want to call me out then do it to my face and not behind a passive aggressive article

Wait! That's not how you soothe an eye? We've all been doing it wrong now

PDGAreject the Onion wrote an article about you

Especially if wearing contact lenses, nothing like a scratched cornea to help soothe the eyeball

But it was the best half hour of the day.....

I am constantly trying to rub one out.

I usually find getting a little sand on the fingers first usually does the trick.

Amen... I mean, I KNOW whenever I do this, I am just making it worse... and yet... still... must... rub!! lol

You aren’t wrong lol

It's either an irritated eye or your eye lashes falling into your eye every 5 min

You've gotta rub harder.

CDC Says Possibly 'Less Than Half' Of Positive Antibody Tests Are CorrectThe CDC has acknowledged that antibody tests used to determine if people have previously been infected with Covid-19 are not accurate enough to guide important policy decisions. This from the group who can’t count correctly - and who fails to update Covid data transparently. Anything to reduce the total number of possible infections Haha what a joke this technology has became. First they said we have a pandemic, then they said the testing kits are faulty and have an accuracy of less than 50%, so how initially it was a Pandemic? And now the antibody tests are inaccurate too 😂😂 62% of US deaths during WuFlu scamdemic in Dem Gov States representing 18% of US pop.

About half of the Twitter accounts calling for reopening America are bots: reportAn analysis of more than 200 million tweets discussing the coronavirus suggests 45%-60% come from bots Twitter is a great bot-farm, with few human users. I think twitter and facebook should be held accountable for allowing this kind of influence. They are complicit in psychological warfare.
