I see the usuals are burning the midnight oil. Anyone up to anything fun (except Ben who is watching Star Trek or something that went completely over my head)?

I'm being boring and doing some revision. That's what happens if you doss about in the day.

Oh and I managed to have two takeaways today and I haven't been drinking. That was quite pleasing.

I'm having a debate with myself on growing a beard. It'll grow quicker than my head hair. I reckon I could look even more mental.

That would be quite ace. Does your beard go ginger-ish? You could have some crazy two tone going on there.

I might chip off to Asda in a minute and get some munch in. There's sod all in the house and the kitchen is being decorated anyway, so rustling up snackage isn't easy.

Although I could be saved if there's cheese in the fridge.

I'm listening to the 'Up All Night' show on 5live, while trying to decide whether i want McCoys or hula hoops.

Oh, and i'm also growing a beard, week in so far and it's still difficult to see :( I always get to this point and chicken out though

I wasn't going to shave this week, merely because I'm not at work and could. But after about 3 days I couldn't be bothered.

Just thankful mine doesn't grow much or too quickly as it's the stage where it gets itchy and you have to put in more effort to shave thats crap.

To be honest I'll probably shave tomorrow. I think I might get sacked if I don't. My dad wasn't to impressed with my new hair cut, and the fact I was still pissed when I turned up to work on Wednesday morning.

Haha ace.

Wasn't he encouraging you to get a haircut all the time though? Just use that excuse.

I was supposed to get a hair cut. And I think that's why he's pissed off. I sort of did the teenage rebellion thing, but whilst pissed and at the age of 23. Go me.

I'm slowly getting used to it now. Think it's going to look well fucking weird again if I have a shave tomorrow morning. The stubble sort of balances it out somehow.

Im bored shitless and at work. somebody give me something to do.

fetch me a beer.

Fetch me a left handed screwdriver

Fetch me a sonic screwdriver programmed to generate and open bottles of the finest beer that the world has to offer. Oh and a time travelling police box. And superpowers. and stuff.

how about the power to fly?

that levitation holmes.

Lee Holmes can fly? Fucking hell sign the boy up

and he has the power to kill a yak.

with mind bullets.

Our placers struggle to pass the ball about when everybody's on the ground for fucks sake.

We need some everlasting drum beat from the vortex. Would be a good start for a tef band.

I really want to watch my Tenacious D live dvd now, but alas, I will only fall asleep in front of the telly if I do

the D rock. do it.

I like lot's of things still, that even at the time were generally considered student wankness. With Nail & I for example. However Tenacious D are shit.

you are wrong. although the film was crap.

Have you seen any of the television shows they did as well. That's mainly what the film was based on, but the shows are 15 minutes long each and far better imo.

The music in the film was ace though, but again a lot was old songs

the lee video is ace.

Is that scratch I can feel across the bottom of my skull your clumsy hair dressing?

possible. but you didn't take out the insurance premium i offered you.

What did you cut it with? A flip up beard trimmer attachment thing on an electric razor?

yes

Ouch. That's the best idea I've heard in a while. Even more amazing that you did it.

and kitchen scissors to start with.

Must have taken a while. No wonder Ben fell asleep a couple of times

There was a lot of hair. And despite what axeboy said in the other thread, I was battered. Although I didn't really realise it at the time. (I don't hold him responsible though)

I'm starting to like it now, I'm looking forward to it growing back and seeing what happens. I've got some irrational fear that by cutting my hair I've got some sort of wereginger genes or something from axs. Maybe it's not so irrational.

it wasn't a full moon, you're ok.

you didn't seem that pissed moments before, it was only when you fell asleep while i was i was doing it, and by then it was too late to stop.

So did you actually forget this episode or was that just for added comedy value?

Anyway it looks like bed time in 15 minutes. I've eaten some food and the coffee is no longer working

I got a text today (yesterday) that I would have sent to you Ben, had you not lost your phone:

Today is International Disadvanted People's Day. Please send an encouraging message to a retarded friend, just as I've done. I don't care if you lick windows, interfere with farm animals or occasionally shit yourself. You hang in there sunshine, you're fucking special.

That's only half the job - once you've done that you've got to flip it over and clean shave the whole pate. Don't try and wet shave it when tanked though - it's a recipe for a head with bits of wet bloody tissue stuck all over it. And while there is much scope for debate as to whether close cut/clean shaven look good as hair (or lack of) styles, let's be honest the "lumpy bits of tissue stuck on with blood" look is never really going to catch on outside of Davis House (erm, that's as in the wino place, not my gaff)

My mum wasn't that happy when I noisily let my self into the house at whatever time suddenly completely lacking hair. Especially as we both had to be at work at 9am. It was nearly the last straw after my turning up on the doorstep sans clothes a week before. If I'd turned up with a messy bloody head I think I might be homeless right now.

She quite likes the hair now, but I don't think I should do any late night drunken coming in noisily for a while.

How are you finding the bold headness Paul? Are you suddenly finding yourself thinking you're a bit of a nutter? I think it's a psychological thing.

I think axs should have just shaved off a strip down the middle and left ben with two bushy bits either side  :D

Mildly irritating more than anything tbh. And I now have a greater interest in hats than I used to.

Not really - having less hair hasn't made me internally reassess myself as some sort of snarling Phil Mitchell-alike. I suspect that reflects badly on my lack of imagination/dullness, but there you go. Although the guys at work have commented how it enhances my "hooligan" image - which as I didn't realise I had one and didn't want one was more annoying than anything, but I think that's more to do with general stereotyping of "people who actually go to football games as opposed to sitting in their armchairs in front of Sky pontificating about it". So there you go - a complete psychological profile of the effects of hair loss. Which was best summarised in the first sentence "Mildly irritating more than anything". But you did ask.
