I made a new code

I just created a new code and I want to see if anyone can figure it out. Here’s a short sentence in the code:

1010211121021102010201212000311121031002021010211121002002102110312000020020003101020020110200002020104

let me know if you figure it out. 😁

What is the point of the popcorn button on microwaves if all the microwave popcorn packets tell you not to use the popcorn button?

I can still see how many fingers you’re holding up when I take my glasses off…

“How bad is your vision?”

“I can see about two or three feet away.” (Meaning I can see clearly for about 2-3 ft.)

“Really?” Moves about four feet away “How many fingers am I holding up?”

Lots of people don’t understand this so I’m going to explain it. (DISCLAIMER: I’m not an eye doctor or someone with any real knowledge about this stuff. I have bad eyesight and am just explaining what it is like).

My eyesight is about -3 (I am nearsighted which means I can see things that are close to me better than I can see things that are further from me). My vision isn’t terrible compared to how bad it can be but I can only see clearly for a few feet.

Blurry doesn’t mean I can’t see anything. My vision doesn’t just stop after three feet.

With context (knowing who is usually where, being in familiar places, hearing sounds/voices) I can figure out who is where and what I’m walking towards even without my glasses on. If I’m walking through my living room without my glasses on, I’m not going to walk straight into furniture. I can still see where the furniture is, the edges just aren’t as clear. I’m usually a little more clumsy with my glasses off just because the lines that we use to avoid running into things aren’t as clear for me. I can see where the coffee table is just not well enough that I could read the name of a magazine sitting on it.

Sometimes, if I’m close enough to something to pick out a few letters or to see the vague outline of a word or phrase, I might be able to figure out what it says. Like if you were playing a crossword puzzle and you had some of the letters but you still had to figure out the whole word (I couldn’t come up with a good analogy).

If I’m in a place or situation where I don’t have context (knowing who is usually where, being in familiar places, hearing sounds/voices) I will have a harder time figuring out who someone is or what something is. If someone I know came up to me in the grocery store, stood about 4+ feet away, and waved, I would be able to see that they waved at me but I wouldn’t be able to tell who was waving at me. If I thought about it for a bit and really squinted and stared, I might be able to figure out who it is.

Back to the “how many fingers am I holding up?” When you hold up fingers in front of me, I can see how many fingers there are. You just look like you have some really weird fuzzy fingers.

In the photo, I would be the -3D all the way on the right. I can see (at least for the larger ones) how many letters there are and their rough shape but I wouldn’t be able to actually tell you what letters they are.

My eyesight is bad enough that when I have to take my glasses off for eye tests at the doctor’s office, I can usually immediately say that I can’t see anything on the chart and we can move on.

I hope this explained some things and if you have questions, please ask! Thanks for reading this whole thing (it was probably kind of boring).
