late night solipsistic musings (or, why I learned to stop worrying about the bomb and love me)

At lunch today, a friend of mine told me she is “frightfully concerned” that a nuclear-armed Iran will eventually be the turning point that “leads to the ultimate downfall of the West.”

Which, sure—that’s all well and good.  But would it have killed her to tell me how nice my hair looks?

    Well, Iran and the bomb could lead to a Nuclear Winter.

    So maybe Laurie David, Cheryl Crow, and Gore will shut up.

    And your hair won’t frizz in that climate.

    Me?  I don’t have any so I could give a rip.

  2. cthulhu says:

    “Hey, Jeff—nice abs!”

  3. Scott Crawford says:

    Well, since I’m mostly bald, the concept of your having hair, however nice, is, quite frankly, immaterial.

    What was that about Iran?

  4. His Frogness says:

    Gimme that Z—-O–L–O–F–T

    Gimme a grip

    Make me love me

  5. McGehee says:

    Your hair looks nice, Jeff.

    Whereas mine? I can’t do a thing with it.

  6. Tai Chi Wawa says:

    Does she only care about the bleeding crowd?

    How about a needing friend?

    Have you tried radiation? I hear it works wonders.

  8. Sticky B says:

    Lunching with the elite academia crowd again, huh? Those worry warts.

  9. Dan Collins says:

    I believe that’s “worts,” Sticky.

    If Jeff’s hair were shaggier, I’d say Bush fatigue.

  10. Rob Crawford says:

    I believe that’s “worts,” Sticky.

    You sure? A “wort” is unfermented beer.

  11. Great Mencken's Ghost! says:

    Your tired talking points about an Iranian connection to your hair have been thoroughly debunked, wingnut.

  12. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says:

    Not only am I a member of the nuclear, er, hair club, I’m the FREAKING PRESIDENT!!

  13. B Moe says:

    A “wort” is unfermented beer.

    So is that the root of “worthless”, then?

  14. McGehee says:

    Have you tried radiation? I hear it works wonders.

    “Wonders” is right. I had to let the hair grow back to hide the third ear.

    “Wonders” is right. I had to let the hair grow back to hide the third ear.

    Even since my therapy, my one testicle is much larger than the other two.
