As a cockeyed person, it doesn’t bother me. People rarely say anything. Sometimes you can catch people being confused about which eye to look into but it’s brief.
I did have a kid say to me one time, “Wow, your eyes are like, seriously crossed!” I acted surprised and said, “Seriously? Oh my god! Do you think other people notice?” She felt bad about it and said, “No! No! It’s just where I was standing. I doubt anyone ever seen it.” :p
My eyes are nowhere near as bad as biggie’s though because my sweet mother got me surgery when I was 5 years old. I still thank her for it regularly.
That’s understandable, it’s definitely not on the level of like a racial slur or anything. But if my niece or nephew blurted that out about someone I’d want to put a stop to it pretty quickly, you know?
And oh my god, that story about the kid is hilarious and adorable!
