Eris will seriously distort your sense of good taste

[Wishfarple]

Some of us might like to think that because we're in her fan club that we'll somehow be spared from making asses of ourselves.  Not so!  In fact, I get the distinct feeling that she gets a particular kick out of kicking her followers.  

I usually cut my own hair, considering I don't want to pay thirty bucks to some young lady who's just going to use the same clippers I got for $10 at Target.  Needless to say, this results in a lot of let's-try-the-3/8"-guard-this-time! buzz-cuts.  The back is almost never perfect, but since I can't see it it's cool.  Just like how my back doesn't need shaved because it's invisible.

Well, Saturday night the goddess must have been bored, because I tried something different.  I had just buzzed the sides of my head, and noticed that it almost looked kinda cool that way, with the top still somewhat longer.  So, I did as best as I could with the back, showered, and drank until I passed out.  

Next morning I throw some laundry in and head out to pick up a video game I've wanted to play, not noticing until I get back that I look as though I stepped straight out of MTV circa 1985.  Like, remember the weinery guy on the couch near the beginning of Pulp Fiction?  With the Flock of Seagulls hair?  I made him look butch.  Seriously, I was on the verge of taking pictures of myself naked to sell on the internet as lesbian porn with this hair.

And I'd been out.  In Public.  

In retrospect, it's not surprising that the guy at Gamestop gave me the box with the elf on it, instead of the orc.  Fucking patriarch.

This is precisely why I go to high-priced salons.
Ever since I began doing so, my 'do has never been anything other than sexy.

I'm positive that Eris reserves Her special pranks for her fans.

I'm not sure when I'll cut my hair next. I'm going overboard after years of short hair because of swimming.
And it could be unrelated to converting to Discordianism, but I've been noticing myself becoming slightly more chaotic lately.

I'm sure that becoming more chaotic is totally random and unrelated to becoming a Discordian.

Sometimes I let my apartment go all to hell.  
What do you think? Is grunge in?

Are you asking the guy that wore flannel shirts tied around his waste for a full three years of his life in the late 90s?  Or the one who thought fanny packs were the height of fashion when he was a child?  Or the one whose idea of dressing up is a really *nice* Hawaiian shirt?

If so, yeah.  Grunge is all good this year.

hawaiian shirt.......

[Horab Fibslager]

i'd wear more plaids if i could find decent prints in short sleeves.  

anotehr year of clothes shopping and anotehr year without plaid.

goddess has forsaken me.

[Wishfarple]

Sepia: Hawaiian shirts are generally button-down, short-sleeved, and have garish floral prints.  Like so:



But that's actually a lot classier than the kind I usually wear.

[Horab Fibslager]

are you a big fat party animal or homosexual?

:

[Wishfarple]

Yes/yes/no/no and no.

Mainly it's just that at some point in my life I must have expressed that I liked them, so everyone from then on bought the fucking things for me.  I'm too lazy to buy my own clothes, so I just wear whatever I have.

[Cain]

I dont think I have any taste to ruin, in fact I may gain more taste in clothes.

[saint aini]

Grunge is in for those who want it to be in.

[Z³]

I havent worn a flannel in years, I used to wear them a lot and I'd always light my sleeves on fire when I got bored. I also had long hair, and lots of torn up jeans...

I remember being sixteen.

[agent compassion]

You're not the only one, Llama. A few months ago, I gave myself a haircut. I wanted something that was different from my usual all-one-length do, so I had dyed it black, and cut fringe into it on the sides in a couple of different lengths...and one day I was combing it and realized that I had accidentally given myself a "Monica."

You know, like Monica from "Friends." That show that just would not die, whose stars' haircuts were instant trends, and thousands of women dragged magazine clippings to their stylists to get the current "Rachel" or "Monica" even if it didn't have a hope of fitting their face.

Eris must have known I hate trendhopping....

Anyway, I fixed it.
