Problem: Article: Give the tap a minute or two to heat up—the water needs to be pretty hot in order to soften the plastic frames enough to make them pliable. Run enough water to completely cover the bent glasses.  Intense temperatures can melt plastic frames. If the water is too hot to touch, chances are it's too hot for your glasses. You also have the option of holding the glasses directly under a stream of hot water or using a hair dryer if there are no suitable containers around. Lower the glasses to the bottom of the container so that they're fully submerged. There, the heat of the water will begin to act on them. Let them sit for at least 30 seconds before removing them and patting them dry with a clean microfiber towel.  If you’re using a hair dryer, hold the nozzle about 6 inches (15 cm) away from the frames and wave it back and forth for 30-60 seconds. Handle the glasses carefully. They’ll be even more fragile than normal when warm. Hold the glasses steady with both hands while you use your thumbs to work on the most misshapen areas. Apply pressure a little at a time, holding the frames in the desired shape for a few seconds, then letting them relax. You should feel the plastic flexing under your touch.  Avoid placing unnecessary stress on the frames, especially around the arms and nosepiece. If you try to bend them too much, they could easily snap. If the frames start to cool off before you’re finished, give them another 20-30 seconds of hot water or air. You can repeat this process as many times as needed. Once you’ve got your glasses looking good as new, leave them to sit out at room temperature for a few minutes. This will give the plastic a chance to harden back up, making your corrections permanent. You can then try them on without have to worry about them warping or breaking. Keep in mind that plastic frames can be harder to fine-tune than metal ones. If your glasses still don’t fit exactly how you want them to, it may be a good idea to take them back to the retailer to have them repaired professionally.
Summary: Fill a shallow container with warm water. Dunk the glasses in the water for 30 seconds to a minute. Bend the frames into position delicately. Allow the glasses to cool before wearing them.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: If you are giving a planned toast at an event, spend a few moments discussing the toast with the bride or groom (in the case of a wedding) or someone closely involved in the planning. Ask them what subjects, if any, they would like you to discuss in particular as well as any subjects they want you to avoid. They can also give you some insight regarding who will be attending the event. You can also express your reservations to the toastee if you would like to participate but are too nervous to do so. Just because you are asked to give a toast does not mean you have to, especially if you suffer from social anxiety. Find out when you will be asked to speak and who will be going directly before you, if there will be a series of toasts. If you are giving a spontaneous toast then you don’t need to worry about order and will instead want to look for a good time when you can get everyone’s attention.  Rehearsal dinner toasts are usually informal with the hosts generally addressing everyone followed by anyone else who wishes to jump in. At a wedding, the best man and maid of honor offer the first toasts followed by the bride and groom. The parents then have a chance followed by any of the guests.  At a casual dinner party it is best to wait until the dinner or first course plates are collected before you offer a toast. Short toasts are the best toasts. A wedding toast should last for right around 3 minutes. If you hit 5 minutes, you have gone too long. It is best to keep a dinner party toast at a minute or less. You want to keep your audience curious for more, not begging you to wrap up. Make sure that both the content and how you deliver the toast suits the occasion. It is okay to make a few jokes, but don't include anything too lewd. It’s also a good idea to avoid cursing so you don't risk offending random attendees.  If you are really worried, run your toast by the bride or groom to gauge their reaction and ask for feedback. It is hard to establish a clear line for lewd humor, but most people find discussing sex or the wedding night to be in poor taste. Toasting practices vary across cultures, so if you are planning on giving a toast at an unfamiliar locale you may want to research the norms beforehand. Even the placement of your glass matters. For instance, in China you try to keep your rim lower than others in order to show deference and respect.

SUMMARY: Talk to the toastee. Know the speaking order. Understand any time constraints. Be aware of the atmosphere. Know the local customs and etiquette.
