Basically, the main character in Final Fantasy X.

 

I wonder if we'll have punch an emo day this year.

I only have a blond mohawk because of bad genetics.... see I have thin(fine sounds better) I have fine hair and it's really straight, so it looks like I'm going bald, but I'm not, it's always looked like that. So I get it blonded so it's less obvious (illogical, but it works)I used to have reeeeeeally long luxurious hair, I could sit on it. It took a bit of getting used to going from 3.5 feet to near bald. I cut it off and sold it to a wigshop in Oxford street, so it was probably used by some drag queen.

What is a postmodern hippie? Are there postpostmodern hippies? What of minimalist hippies, and abstract hippies? "You abstract hippie!" Sounds funny.

 

Actually, I

Yuck!

I don't have any particular problem with emo haircuts.

Its because you have one.

 

Yeeees. I'm sure you can all see me getting very into my own hair.

 

*Thinks: nuts. They've found me out*

I am a pasty geek who will never be understood because I am on the fringe, I am really just a dull little turd who nobody understands because they couldn't give a toss about my pathetic little troubles. So for attention, I mean to express my inner torment I dress like this, and write crappy non-rhyming poems. I can understand why people wouldn't like me, I don't like me.

^^ That looks like the ones. stupid teenagers. Whenever I see them, I just want to go up and cut their hair. With a chain-saw.

 

What

Relax.

 

Really. (You are sounding insecurely emo.)

 

 

That first paragraph wasn't meant to come off as serious. It was meant in a joking way. My bad for not using any smilies, or making it clear enough.

 

I have nothing against teenagers, per se; (though as a sweeping generalisation I guess it's not too bad ), just the ridiculous fashions, like the emo haircut.

 

Put it this way, they

While I have nothing against the hair I do object to whiny spoilt brats slouching around pretending they've got problems I should care about.

I also can't stand the trend to wear trousers / clothing of the lower part of the body with the belt several feet below the appropriate position, i.e. the waistline. I wonder how many actually know this started off as an imitation of the ex-convicts who had had their belts removed, hence their pants dangled around their thighs.

 

 

Still, I guess I wore baggy jeans ... and now I see that flares have returned to vogue, after almost thirty years in the wilderness ...

Pull your pants up you look ridiculous.

 

I had a pair of flares, and I'm not old.

 

Grunge was daggy, dreadlocks look like dog turds, the fauxhawk defeats the purpose of a mohawk, and the updated mullet makes most look retarded, so was there ever a youth fashion trend that wasn't rubbish? Of the 20th century?

 

To answer the question: blond, or brunette doesn't matter. I prefer shaved bald.
