So...

with my newfound image. I feel I have infiltrated the baldie subculture. Weird, I know. But hear me out:

So, long story short, as most of you know I have been slowly fighting the fact that my hair has been thinning and thusly, balding. I bit the bullet and shaved my huge excuse for a human head on Saturday night. After the customary oohs and aahs, I slowly realized the existence of the bald guy culture. Not only among my coworkers, but the public in general. The guys at work, both coworkers and guests, all "welcomed" me to "their side", in a weird cultish welcoming type way. Almost like when I just had my first communion into the catholic church.

It was far more noticeable in the following days when I roamed around the city. After walking out of (and thoroughly enjoying) Batman, I got several chin-up head-nods from fellow bald guys. Almost as if they knew that I was a new recruit in their bald-army. It was eerie. I knew it wasn't just me, because my partner in crime for the day also noticed the odd head nods from fellow baldies.

I then also noticed the 'different' looks from the fairer sex. Not that I didn't notice the looks from when I did have my superiorly spiked hair, but these looks were something totally different. It was definitely cool.

Sup ladies...

Anyways, everyday I notice more and more people looking. I don't know if its all in my head, but I do know what I see. I also know that I am a proud owner of a very sizeable noggin, therefore the looks are understandable... but still.

I feel I should be getting a membership card in the mail or something. Maybe a secret decoder ring. Hopefully a discount on head accessories. I dunno, but this change is fun (so far) and quite entertaining.

Plus, my head looks like a freshly shorn scrotum, it's no wonder why girls love to stroke bald guys heads.

Hello again ladies ;)
