5 Things You Shouldn’t Do While Wearing Lady Gaga’s New Polaroid Glasses

These Terminator-style glasses are the result of Lady Gaga‘s year-long collaboration with Polaroid, and –surprise! — they look like something nobody but Lady Gaga would ever wear. The glasses display video on little screens underneath each eye, either uploaded via an SD card or shot with the glasses’ built-in camera. Which is cool if you’re a robot in a Sci Fi flick, but terrible if you’re a human being trying to actually accomplish tasks. Here’s a list of things you should definitely avoid doing while wearing these Polarez GL20s:

1. Walking: Unless you want your next video to be a POV shot of smashing concrete.
2. Eating: Stained t-shirts kind of ruin the whole chic shades aesthetic.
3. Watching television: Video-on-video? That sounds like a recipe for epilepsy.
4. Having epilepsy: We’re not doctors, but we’re pretty sure anyone prone to seizures should stay the hell away.
5. Crying: Think you found a good way to hide that you’ve gotten teary-eyed over the demise of Swyllenhaal? No go: you’ll get the video screens all wet.

The one thing you don’t have to avoid:
Having sex: These glasses are basically a tool for getting off, right? To watch video of someone hotter than your mate, all while keeping your dude from suspecting anything. Hmm – maybe you done good after all, Gaga.
