Building a better Stragbasher

Is it time for a new-look stragbasher?

  • You look like an unruly drugged-out surfy, and it’s time you started to be more professional about your appearance.
  • You are a fine and sexy example of independent-minded manhood. Grow it longer!
  • You are a self-obsessed poser, and no one here gives a toss. Do as you like, and see if we even notice.

It’s coming up on 10 years since I had a proper haircut, and there’s a little voice telling me that it’s time for a change. Am I right, or have I just been unduly influenced by the suave good looks of Prince Charming in the ToeShrek II movie?

Stragbasher,
If you decide to cut your hair, remember to save a few locks for those admiring females who would love to have a souvenir. Actually, I think your long hair suits you.

Wait on. What am I doing discussing hair? :astonished: Fag Alert!!! Time for me to go chop firewood, hunt animals, and arm wrestle blokes.

I’d say those Straggly eyebrows are most definitely in need of a trim. Unless, that is, you’re planning on plaiting them together with your nose hairs to create an exciting new look.

All in a state of stinking inebriation, of course, and without washing or combing your … er… that stuff on the top of your head.

Might want to have that tic removed while you’re at it.

Unless you are a washed-up hippie who yearns for the good old days at Anjuna; an artist who actually thinks he knows what art means; or Jesus, cut the hair.
Long hair went out of fashion years ago. Same with the Tom Sellack mustache.
This is the age of looking sharp. Do you?

I mean look at Alleycat Alan…you think he’s such a chick-magnet because of that pizza cologne and flour in his hair?

Why not see what you look like with short hair before you cut it? hairdesigner.com/

You may just be uglier with short hair. Perish the thought.

Are we witnessing a hitherto unheard-of event? Forumosa’s own straight-up kiwi bloke getting in touch with his feminine side! Or rather, are we witnessing his feminine side struggling to make herself heard above the roaring of the testosterone?

Or is it all a bluff? Is this ‘arm wrestling animals’ just foreplay before ‘hunting blokes’? I mean, he just complimented me on my hair. And when he came to Taipei he declined a ride in a taxi in favour of snuggling up behind me on my motorbike. Is Almas John, in fact, a puff in denial? Is he stalking me?

Don’t worry about it, mate. A lot of men re-examine their sexuality when they get to your age, although I didn’t know that yetis had mid-life crises too. My advice is to consult with the ‘out of the closet’ community here about coming to terms with the new you. They can teach you to love yourself and, er, your fellow man without having to conform to those restrictive heterosexual stereotypes that are giving you so much trouble.

However, I should tell you that you’ve got no chance with me. I’m strictly interested in women, and the occasional sheep. Also, I’m worried that if I get my hair cut I’ll look like Bassman, only younger.

Ew. That looks disgusting. I’ll bet that place is really popular with men who like to collect samples of women’s hair and nails and murder the women just to do so.

LOL. Actually, they just need to be smoothed down with your fingers. Remember?

Why would Omni remember that? Is there something I should know?

No.

Aren’t you worried that you’ll lose all of your, er, strength? Remember Samson :uhhuh:

Don’t get too excited mate; there’s no chance of me batting for the other side. As for the motorcycle ride - it was a bumpy road and that was a normal physical response.

It’s just that I’m moving up to the big bad city tomorrow, so I’m going to have to look out for those creeping metrosexual influences. I don’t want to see myself reading men’s magazines, using hair gel, or following Italian football.

Oh well, back to packing and finishing off my supplies.

The extent to which a man having a ponytail equals ‘sad git’ just increases with age.

OI!

uh…maybe you’re right. :frowning:

Metrosexual.

Or instead of changing the hair, you could authenticate it by wearing little navy and white sailor suits and learn to dance the hornpipe. I’m sure you’d be able to incorporate that into some kind of a striptease routine - just as a little “traditional British cultural experience” for your students. :howyoudoin:
