^ It's basically a concise and very rough approximation of the growth rate of a function.
< For instance, n, 100n, and n + 50000 are all in O(n) because they increase linearly; while anything with an n^2 and no n^3, 2^n, n!, or anything else that increases faster is in O(n^2).
v It's often used to classify the efficiency of computer algorithms when you really only care about how long it'll take to run when you're using arbitrarily large inputs. Quicksort and mergesort, for instance, both run in O(n log(n)) time and as such are pretty equivalent. One may take, say, ten times as long to run in some particular implementation, which is a significant difference, but nothing compared to bubblesort, which runs in O(n^2) time.

^ Is incorrect
< Is nearsighted, although not very much; and as such has to wear glasses pretty much everywhere except at the computer (I wear them then too because I'm too lazy to take them off).

^ If you're nearsighted, that means you can see fine up close, but not far away. You sound farsighted to me.
< Can wear sunglasses if they're the fancy kind that fits over my normal glasses
v Is tired of all this talk about sight and glasses
