Robots aren't real people dude.

Humanist.

I really liked the comment from The Big Bang Theory when theyw ere telling Sheldon he was a robot. That made me laugh. And then Sheldon said, later, I think, about how if Howard were a root, he'd have to power down day a week. It's everso well written.

Blokes paying £30 for a haircut? Did Beex get replaced with Be Metrosexual To Each Other?

I generally pay about £15 (even when I lived in London), and that includes getting my head rubbed by an attractive young lady (a vital part of a haircut). I'd be pushed to find anywhere near here that charged north of £20 for a bloke's haricut.

Most I ever paid was £11, and that was when I was a student and wanted highlights :spew:

I bought the same clippers governmentyard uses, and have a mix of doing my own, and getting a trim.

Heh, you pay women to touch you.

Followers of my sartorial style will wish to know I've opted for the gray suit, white shirt and a dark blue tie.

I can't find my red tie.

Thanks, all, yo. See you at 1pmish.

For something I get done every 5-10 weeks, why not? The difference when you don't just have a generic short back and sides between haircut quality is astounding. And nothing makes you feel shit like a bad haircut.

You should find a better barber.

My side of my face feels fucked today, swelling not really gone down yet.

If there's a poll, I'm another one for "cut my own". Perhaps you can tell. Though perhaps there should be a separate "cut all my own off" group, as that's quite a different thing.

A lot of settings on the store tills are controlled by a riva.ini file. I am grabbing a load back for analysis, and keep grinning because the folder is called Rivas, and I keep saying in my head "It was Reavers."

I need help.

Thought it went OK. Didn't leaving thinking "That was a BELM!" thing to say. They seemed impressed at my knowledge of the company (gleamed from reading the annual report) and my ability to reel of efficiency savings that had been put into place, and so on. On leaving, one of the youths in the 'Community Payback' bibs shouted he wanted to have my tie, so I was clearly dressed smartly.

Also: On the way out of Bingley, there was some fucking dolt wearing a dressing gown, with a painted face walking between the lines of stopped cars shaking his bucket for Children in Need. On my return trip he was in Shipley, doing the same fucking thing. Idiot. I hate Children in Need.

Ta, I often have two sentences in my head as I'm typing, so they get confused in my excitement to disemminate the inutae of my life in a web 2.0 form.
