A Shave And A Haircut

When your hair gets in your ear and starts picking at your brain then it's time for a haircut.

My barber is this guy called Salde. I'm not even a hundred percent if that's his real name. He's been my barber since I was about five years old or maybe even less. He can probably pick me out of a crowd by my hair or just feel the shape of my scalp and he'd know its me. He's one of those old kinds of barbers. He just stands there cutting my hair all quiet, stoic even. Maybe we'd do a little small talk. Maybe. He cuts the hair exactly the way you tell him. I'd tell him different ways of cutting my hair sometimes just to mess around or tell him he can't use a razor this time but only scissors. No problems.

Barbers today aren't even called barbers. They're self-styled stylists. One time when I foolishly had my haircut in one of those "salons" instead of old Salde's chair, it was horrible. The stylist, all of them are gay by the way, (no exceptions) just ruined everything. My hair was all long on one end and thin on the other. He was trying to make it look like I had bangs or something. It looked like a pile of horse dung. Why would I need to look like some emo faggot? That's what he was going for I think. Where are the old manly barbers? All we have are gay stylists now. (all stylists are gay) Where are the old barbers who would twist your head at an angle to forcefully, yet gracefully, cut that tangled mess of weeds you call hair? The pussification of the modern male continues.

I blame that "Queer Eye" show. Damn them.

Nut Washer 2010

I was listening to the car radio the other day and there was this ad for something called a "masculine wash". I thought to myself, "Masculine wash? That doesn't sound very masculine at all." I've heard about feminine wash but not masculine wash. I listened some more and then it hit me. Masculine wash is exactly what you think it is. It's a care product for your privates to "ensure a fresh feeling of confidence from morning to evening." Yeesh.

I can understand feminine wash. I mean, I think it would probably need more care considering it's internal and that's where, you know, babies come from? But honestly, why would you need masculine wash? A penis isn't a complicated instrument people. You don't need a manual. Yet, it seems we need a special little bottle for it now. You neanderthal lumberjacks with the soap have been doing it wrong all this time.

I like to think of feminine wash as more of a medicine really. The commercials for it on TV always tout the science like PH balance and antibacterial benefits to the product. In the commercial for the masculine wash however, it mentioned "confidence and fresh feeling" and all that hoopla. Masculine wash is a damned cosmetic product! Did society turn upside down while I was away that we are now selling cosmetic products to men and no-nonsense products to women? How much more metro can a man be? What's next, a pubic hair styling conditioner?

I swear, the pussification of the modern man is reaching critical mass. It has to stop.
