3D printable "look of disapproval" glasses turn you into a human emoticon

These "Look of Disapproval glasses" from Thingiverse gives you a 3D-printable option for turning your face into an emoticon. They're the first contribution from user Plasma2002, and the Makerbot folks have put out a call for the entire spectrum of human emotion to be captured in 3D-printable glasses.

Here’s what I’m thinking for an emoticon glasses challenge:

* Be the first to upload any kind of emoticon glasses to Thingiverse with the tag “emoticonglasses“.
* Be the first to upload a particular kind of emoticon glasses to Thingiverse with the tag “emoticonglasses“.
* Be the first to tweet a picture of yourself wearing emoticon glasses at a bar with the hashtag “#emoticonglasses“

Anyone who completes any of the above three challenges gets 9000 internet points and everlasting online fame!

Emotive Glasses… and a challenge!

  Tom Bailey impersonator?

• [Joseph Francis]

  I need these in polarized stereo

• [edgore]

  Wouldn’t simple paper printable versions be more accessible?

  • [Joseph Francis]

     I need those in anaglyph stereo.

• [Madeline Ashby]

  -.-;; plz.

• [Donald Petersen]

  I kinda miss the beagle-ears, but otherwise I… well, approve.

     Some compromises surely had to be made to get it to work, but it does seem that they didn’t get the design particularly correct.

    To which I say:

    ಠ_ಠ

• [damiro]

  If I wanted to actually express an emotion, I might consider arching my eyebrows instead. “Excuse me while I put on my emoticon frames…”
  That being said, clever.

• [wibbled_pig]

  Over 9000, over!

• [Pedantic Douchebag]

  This feels like the SKYNET moment, but for memes.

  These are great. Why isn’t there an optiker shop somewhere that will let me design and print my own glasses frames? I know exactly what I want (small ovals, slightly tilted up at the outside corners). You can order frameless glasses in any shape–why not the frames?

  Oh, my daughter needs these so much. Then she could stop saying “shifty” or “awesome face” at random points in conversation, and just swap out her glasses instead.

    They’re up for sale at 
    http://www.etsy.com/listing/95261983/look-of-disapproval-glasses now, if you don’t have a means to make your own.

  These are knock offs of the original Look of Disapproval glasses done by Tim Saylor: http://www.etsy.com/listing/79821028/look-of-disapproval-glasses-shipped?ref=sr_gallery_2&sref=&ga_search_submit=&ga_search_query=look+of+disapproval+glasses&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_ship_to=US&ga_search_type=handmade&ga_facet=handmade
  This makes me sad.

  I designed these back in September 2011 have sold about 300 pairs on Etsy.  Sarah bought a pair from me and appears to have made minor modifications to the design.

  And here’s my first post on Reddit about it: http://www.reddit.com/r/shutupandtakemymoney/comments/jqodd/look_of_disapproval_glasses/

  Thanks @facebook-1140534447:disqus for your comment pointing this out!

    My husband actually designed them completely from scratch to fit his liking. We didn’t have a laser cutter at the time we purchased them (for a friend), but now that we do, we figured we could print our own. No reason not to. We had no intention of selling them. Brian put his design up on thingiverse for others to print/cut if they wanted. However, people who didn’t have a laser cutter were wanting us to just sell them a pair, so we did.
