You need a "depends" button. Because long hair on some men is incredibly hot, and on some men incredibly skeevy.

Depends.

Agreed! But I find that a lot of people completely adore/hate it all out of proportion to its objective measurable(-by-me) hotness.

Speaking of hair, how's your no-poo experiment going?

I'm having some success with tricomin and folligen. My hair's significantly longer/less breakage, the texture's gone back to soft from strawlike, and I'm losing fewer hairs in the shower and when I brush.

Woot!

Hey, I was just going to post about that! It's been up and down, but mostly up. My hair is softer and less split-endy and easier to manage, but I've had to move down to less and less frequent vinegar/baking soda washes to keep it that way. These days, I shower frequently but really do a v/bs wash every... 2 weeks?

It's on my mind because N had a (very minor) case of head lice last week, and so I had to shampoo for the first time in months. Then I had to do it again a week later! I'd already forgotten how bad it was. How can my hair be dry, oily, and lame all at the same time? At least it's not enough shampoo to make it start falling out again.

But now I'm interested in the Tricomin/Folligen thing, especially if it's working for you! I tried Minoxidil for a while but I couldn't keep it up every day for six months in order to see a result. I think I made it for three months and saw nothing so my enthusiasm petered out. I'm bad about that. But you're liking it already?

Snow is totally context-dependent. Hate the black leftovers on the side of the road, and the bad drivers in snowy traffic. Love the white fluffy stuff, esp. when I don't have grown-up responsibilities to fulfill.

This, esp. for the snow question, though I would have liked some qualifiers for a few of the others (e.g. bagpipes first thing in the morning Notgood, long hair on balding men Notgood, etc.)

Embrace the senseless tyranny of radio buttons! :)

Clearly you should add a question about love/not-love/hate radio buttons. Perhaps with checkboxes.

Ah, bagpipes: relatively frequent, live, and consistently *startling* in my life these days. Which is a new.

One of the bagpipe majors at my alma mater decided it would be a good idea to practice at 10pm on Halloween while a thick fog rolled across campus.

I've never walked so fast in my life.

For snow, I wanted to say "love" and "hate" but not "do not love."

moominmolly October 1 2010, 14:27:11 UTC
I wanted to say that for The Giving Tree.

me too! i was going to complain that the buttons need more nuance. and that "do not love" was too negative.

Strange but true: ketchup used to be made of anchovies.

That sentence sounds machine-generated. What? Crazy talk!
