If your eyes are also slowly moving across your face you might want to spend less time lying on the sea bed.Originally posted by EternalOptimist View PostWhen I was a youngster, my eyes were situated on the sides of my head, like a guppy.
This was excellent, because it gave me good all-round vision, making it very difficult for bullies or other ne-er do wells to sneak up on me and attack me. I could spot danger from nearly 360 degrees.
But as I have gotten older (and more bulky) I have noticed that my head is getting fatter. This has led to my eyes getting closer together, therefore making me more vulnerable from the rear.
On the plus side, I now look more like a focussed predator with stereo vision, but I cant help feeling that someday soon, the burglars will notice my weak spot and take advantage.
