I have lots of hair.

My new job,(as of three weeks or so) doesnt like it.

They say I have to stuff it all under a hat.

Problem is, I have a lot of it.

If I cant be bothered to do an hours worth of gimmickry to stuff a lot of hair under a hat everyday, should I get it cut?

Ive had my hair long since I was 14.
But jobs arent exactly easy to find these days.

They only get 40 hours of your week, why should they dictate how the other 128 are like? Why do they get to make the big choices...keep the hair, dammit.

Whatever is on sale, if it doesn't work, I'll buy something else. I'm not picky about my hair.

Currently Suave.

Have you always been a megalomaniac?

When did you stop beating your wife?

What is the sound of one hand with the clap?

If you strap a piece of toast to the back of a cat, butter side up, and you drop the cat, how does it land?

If a tree falls in the forest, will granola-loveing eco-kooks ever learn hygiene?

What is occasional irregularity?

If every fourth child in the world is born Chinese, and you've had three kids...

Does the existential vacuum come with attachments?

Why is the word "liver" so damn funny?

What happens if you ask someone with multiple personalities "who do you think you are?"?

And finally,

Why?

I'll take my answers off the air. Long time listener, first time caller.

I feel the same way, but ultimately if they make me choose between supporting myself, and having long hair, I'll have to make a choice.

The good news is that I will only have to cut enough of it off, to stuff the rest under a hat.

I WONT cut my hair short for what they are paying me.

Have you grown mutton chops yet?

When do you plan to start growing mutton chops?

Are you planning on growing mutton chops?

Why aren't you growing mutton chops?

You really should grow some damn mutton chops.

What is the sound of one hand with the clap? The sound of a one fingered snap

If you strap a piece of toast to the back of a cat, butter side up, and you drop the cat, how does it land? It hovers

If a tree falls in the forest, will granola-loveing eco-kooks ever learn hygiene? Irrelavant

If every fourth child in the world is born Chinese, and you've had three kids... Kinky

Does the existential vacuum come with attachments? On request

Why is the word "liver" so damn funny? Because it is Revil backward

What happens if you ask someone with multiple personalities "who do you think you are?"? The current personality will give an in depth explanation of exactly who it thinks it is, and why it is not the other personallity, and why the other personallities are not it.

And finally,

Why? Because

I had a long hair boss once who wore a wig because they wanted short hair. I've walked from a few job opportunities over my hair. But, you know, bottom line crap that I could just as easily find and keep my hair, so it's really not that noble...we'll see how big my talk is this summer after I finish grad school and start needing work. I'm not going back to a job I could have done when I was 18...

When do you plan to start growing mutton chops? When my mutton chops will grow

Are you planning on growing mutton chops? My facial hair is currently having an identity crisis (like whether it exits. I try to grow it and it quits, I try to get rid of it and it is out of control)

Why aren't you growing mutton chops? Read last answer

You really should grow some damn mutton chops. Opinion duly noted and ignored

Don't make me come over there... *hides* Please ignore everything I just said and admire my mutton chops

why does CToaN want you to grow mutton chops?

Will he settle for me growing mutton chops whilst I still have facial hair? (that's before I start on the Estrogen, nyuck nyuck)
Would he pay me double for keeping them even after I start?

oh, and Squatches, keep the hair. Long hair is like some kind of anatomical segment of a dog that sounds apt but also like an insult.

oh, and perhaps most importantly.

why the HELL did I pay £6 for a mouse mat, when I have an optical mouse?

Triple even! Mutton chops for all! It'll be like a secret handshake for NSers, it'll be how we know each other-"Are those mutton chops? Why, I do believe that there is a NSer!" and then we can totally get them to help us cover up our wrong doing....

wait, I got off track somewhere...

Are there any NSers you really can't stand? Not really so much anymore. I really wasn't a big fan of Johny Wad or Jesusaves. But they aren't around it would seem.
similarly, are there any you'd like to have children with, if you know what i mean? If it did not conflict with my belief system..... yes. I will currently neglect naming who.

Here are three questions for you to answer to determine your IQ:

Two trains leave their stations at exactly 12:05. One is going from Baltimore to Pittsburgh at 72 miles per hour, the other is going from Pittsburgh to Baltimore at 45 miles per hour. How much is the lunch special on the second train?

What is the meaning of life? (Yes, there is a right answer!)

Determine the order of the line: Amy is standing behind Claude, Tina is in front of her boyfriend, Jim is sixteenth, and Danny is behind Amy but in front of Claude.

Two trains leave their stations at exactly 12:05. One is going from Baltimore to Pittsburgh at 72 miles per hour, the other is going from Pittsburgh to Baltimore at 45 miles per hour. How much is the lunch special on the second train? They are not currently serving lunch.

What is the meaning of life? (Yes, there is a right answer!) 42(And I actually have reasoning to back that up)

Determine the order of the line: Amy is standing behind Claude, Tina is in front of her boyfriend, Jim is sixteenth, and Danny is behind Amy but in front of Claude.They are either standing in a circle or a random lump, otherwise The relationship Amy Claude and Danny doesn't work.

What made you think a 12:05 train doesn't serve lunch?! Your IQ is 0. (Actually, just kidding. I have to give you partial credit for #2. You tried anyway.)

The correct answers are:

#1—$7.75
#2—Life, n. The state of being alive; the quality that makes living animals and plants different from dead organisms and inorganic matter; also, a living being, especially a person, often used when referring to the number of people killed in an accident or a war (usually used in the plural).
#3—1 is Tina, 2 is Charlie, 3 is Paul, 4 is Claude, 5 is Amy, 6 is Jacob, 7 is Rachel, 8 is Goth, 9 is Viktor, 10 is Samuel, 11 is Mr. Capitalidoro, 12 is the janitor, 13 is Rex, 14 is Calvin, 15 is Emma, and 16 is Jim.

One of my favorite things to do is administer faux quizzes to people, in which the questions are impossible to answer. Don't consider yourself the only victim.

Not that I disagree or anythingI think it's from "The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy" or something. A character feeds the question "What is the meaning of life?" into a computer, which responds, "42."

I know it's from Hitchhiker's Guide, but he said he has actual reasoning which I assumed not to be just the fact that Deep Thought said so. I was just wondering what his reasoning is.

I see life as the battle between good and evil. The number for good is traditionaly 7 and the number for evil is traditionaly 6 (hence 666 being the trinity of evil, the beast). So good vs evil=6x7=42

Have you ever killed anyone with your bare hands?

Did you eat their heart or liver?

Did it taste more like chicken or pork?
