Iowa Eyes

Also Iowa Lamps or Greenhorns. The way rural newcomers and persons from the provinces stare for prolonged periods of time at urban dwellers, usually with a disbelieving, gawky incredulity. The gaze predictably derives not only from the usual unfamiliarity with the pace, rhythms and protocols of city life, but also an unmistakable unlettered and unsophisticated countenance and temperament.
Sari and I tend to avoid certain urban attractions moreso in the summer than other times of the year. Places like the arcade, central fountain and the boardwalk are simply not pleasurable with all those largely rural, out-of-town tourists out and about. They tend to stare at the locals with those Iowa Eyes or Lamps as if we were circus freaks or zoo animals.

blind eye syndrome

Blind eye syndrome is a characterisation of someone who is visually impaired in one eye and visually unimpaired in the other.

When this person interacts with the average person, they close their visually impaired eye. However, when this person interacts with a particular person or type of person, they close their visually unimpaired eye.

If you associate with someone with blind eye syndrome that closes their visually unimpaired eye, when they are interacting with you, this indicates that you are not a high priority to them, and you should consider isolating yourself from them, because their disregard of your well-being may prompt you to expend all your time and energy on their well-being in the hope of opening their visually unimpaired eye, but as your lifeless body stands there with not a single picojoule left to spare, you will discover that there is nothing you can do to be seen by them, thus being possessed by an overwhelming notion of worthlessness and unworthiness of love.
“Why am I the only one that is putting effort into our relationship? You are always begging our other friends to make plans with you. What about me? Do you just have blind eye syndrome or something?”
