I stopped at Panera after going out and it's only taken me a half hour to want to throttle a small child. Gratefully it's only the one, but still. And I can't even hear him thanks to my headphones, so now it's like he's actively trying to drive me up a wall since I apparently have a stronger urge to tell him to sit down than his mother does.

Also, I've seen a clearer picture of Britney and her shaved head. Oh, sweetie. I've seen a surface like that once, but the footage was kind of grainy and I had a hard time seeing it past Neil Armstrong and the space capsule.

Then again, there's a reason why you won't see me shaving my head anytime soon. I've always wanted to do it just for the hell of it, but I've also always known the story about how when I had the chicken pox I had one HUUUUGE one that took up the entire back of my head and I scratched at it like crazy. So you know how they say, "What if you shave your head and it turns out your skull has some hideous deformed chunk out of it or something?" Er, yes. I presume my bald head would look rather like I'd been beaned in my skull with a toaster-sized meteorite and therefore, hair.

Oh god, yes. Never shave your head. I shaved the back of my head when I was at university and discovered a huge port wine stain birthmark. And then I had to spend a month in lecture theatres convinced that everyone in the rows behind me were staring at my head.

*shudder*

See, I have nothing against a woman shaving her head, but she'd better be sure she doesn't have a bumpy skull or a birthmark or a huge scar or something. A guy can pull that off, but a girl ... not so much, unfortunately.

Yeah, but you never know until you try. So really, the best bet for an intermediate step is to get kind of a pageboy cut with it quite short from the nape of the neck up along the back of the skull, but leaving enough hair that you don't have to become Scarf-Wearing Girl for several months while your hair grows back.

Admittedly, though, I'm a guy who's had his head more or less shaved for seven years now. And I have the benefit of a finely shaped skull. *grin*

*blinks* Britney shaved her head?
...
Huh.

*cracks up* Ten points for the snark!

Just remember; you don't get any points for hip-checking the brat unless you call your shot first! *smirks*

I, too, have always wanted to do that... I threatened to do it on my 30th birthday, but never did.

*sigh*

I still can't believe Britney did that. lol. I am still very wtf about that.

And the boy. Whenever I am unnerved by some kid jumping around or yelling or whatever it seems it'S mom doesn't care. It always makes me wonder if I am going to be a very strict mom... So until I figure that out, no kids for me. :)

No, you'd make a good mother. I'm sick of other people's bastards making my life a misery. If i can train my son to be polite and respectful and to behave certain ways in certian places

WHY THE FUCK CAN'T OTHER PEOPLE?!

I was at the National musuem on Thursday and they put on stuff for the kids. SO why the hell was some silly bitch letting her eldest run around screaming, while I was trying to drink boiling bloody tea? And she had one on her hip and one on her hand, so she couldn't control the one running round.

And instead of weakily begging Melandra to stop, tell her once, then grab hold of the little bitch and put her on a seat and hold her there. She's the mother, not a fucking friend.

I'm a firm beleiver in the kid who runs around at three, is going to be on drugs at thirteen because they never learned respect.

My mother grounded my 17 year old brother, who had a full time job and could legally move out, and he didn't leave the house until she said.

My son's the same. Everyone comments on how polite and mannered he is. God people, some fucking discipline.

Take them in hand now and you won't be sending them to Utah ten years from now.

Sorry, I'll stop hijacking your LJ now, but I actively hate other people's children.

I work in a pharmacy, so I get to see the worst of children's behaviour (not counting the sick kids, because no-one's at their best when they're sick). I've worked here for 9 years or so, which means I've got to see the little brats grow up into horrific binge-drinking, animal-mutilating, car-crashing, drug-taking, runaway teenagers. I'm less distressed by lame parents letting their kids run around now, because it's very, very clear that they will reap what they sow. And then they have to pay for the damages.

If you've got the face shape for it (and judging from that Grape Smirnoff pic you do) it can really work. Just be sure your skin'd not prone to breakouts because if it is SURPRISE!

ZIT HEAD!

Incidentally, I looked like Fat Irish Girl Buddha with my head shaved. :)

I could never shave my head. I run my hands through my hair and I know that I have one of those sharp ridges on the top of my scalp. You know, like Patrick Stewart, but not nearly as awesome.
