Do you have a patch? Those are rather dashing.
I've actually thought about all the aesthetic advantages of missing an eye, of which there are several, not all involving parrots.
It's supervillain-esque as well. I'd rock the heck out of that like I do my silver streak/witch mark.
Just sayin'
I hope I'm not being too forward, or putting you on the spot. You can tell me to get lost and I won't mind.

I wore a patch when I went out until I was fitted for my prosthesis, and the patch was kind of attention-getting. FWIW, wearing an eye patch and a face mask leaves you feeling like you're looking at the world through a periscope. It does get a little old after a while.
I enjoyed it when little kids noticed. One little girl popped up and asked me point-blank what happened to my eye. I explained to her that I had hurt my eye, and the patch protected it. Her mom was embarassed, but I told her curiousity was a good thing.honey the codewitch wrote: I hope I'm not being too forward, or putting you on the spot.
Not at all. One of my favorite things about [well-advanced] middle age is that so few things embarass me.

I'm early middle age and yet I know what you mean. Life's too short to be embarrassed.
Little kids are the best. They're one of the reasons I get tri-color dye jobs.

I figured someone must have posted the pirate joke before, and sure enough[^].

As a dad, I absolutely ran the pirate jokes into the ground. I think it was the third time I said "I've become a man of singular vision" that my daughter slugged me in the shoulder hard enough to actually hurt.

Curious about the silver streak/witch mark. Picture?
|
|
|
|

I was asked about my witch mark[^]
In case anyone is still mistaken about me being a woman, that should cover it too. 
You don't get a recent photo because my hair is atrocious. I had to dig that one off my google account.

If you ever run into problems with a program that's using custom mouse cursors instead of the windows standard ones, give YoloMouse a try. It's core use is replacing cursors in games, but it should work anywhere since game devs tend to be at the top of the list for doing screwy stuff with the core OS platform.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Does this mean an anal mask in out future?

They're called pants

AKA a diaper. 
(And yes, it might be in many of our futures.  )

Obviously true given how many people are able to talk out of theirs.

""This is a provocative idea and those first encountering it will express astonishment," wrote Caleb Kelly at Yale School of Medicine in an article accompanying the paper."
Karen: "How dare you save my life by giving me anal oxygen!?"
Nurse: "I'm sorry ma'am, we'll just take your temperature next. Now if you will just bend over..."
Yeah, I see butthurt people alright

Could this be the reason many advanced human beings got all the toilet paper from shelves?

I suppose this is one of the reasons why some people like to stick their heads in there so often...

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

While I agree with your last sentence, I have to say that I don't agree with your subject line.
You only survive for that many days on mechanical ventilation. (Fewer the older you are)
And seriously, If the choice is between suffocating or having a hose up my butt, I wouldn't need to think for long.

Yeah ... but think about the tv news pictures ...
