being mean to animals, not washing hands habitually, littering, leaving the shopping cart out, buzz cut / crew cut and variations thereof (for dudes, some chicks can rock it), having no weird behaviors at all. refusal to be emotionally honest (oh no, its me i'm sorry)
I just like my hair short and not in my face. :(
right? i mean, i'm balding and i find the alternative of growing the little hair i have left far more unpleasant than just having a buzz cut. but hey, that's just preferences.
I'm glad you think so, honestly, but most people don't give a shit about being mean to animals. That's a hard one to find a like-minded person on.
Fr? Maybe it is just the people I hang out with but I dont know anyone who is outwardly mean to animals. Atleast I haven't seen it
It depends on whether you think the existence of livestock is βmean to animals.β
Ah, in that case everyone I know is cruel. I suppose what I meant was that no one I know is cruel beyond the societal standards.
I would use the same definition as you, but thatβs the only definition I can think of that would leave one thinking many people engage in animal cruelty. Unless your entire circle of friends is an illegal dogfighting ring.
Buzz cut for me screams "I'm an NPC and I have no personality." At least that's the first impression it passes to me.
Eh, some of us are just balding and it's the least bad option.
I guess. Though if I ever start balding I plan on going full on egg bald, it looks better to me.
If you've got the head shape to pull it off, go for it. You don't really know until you try it. I tried...
I'm gonna find out soon enough, and I'm worried. I already know I have a couple small bumps on my head (they feel like pimples/ingrown hairs, but I've tried squeezing them to no avail), and I'm almost positive my head is shaped differently than normal.
Buzz cut to me screams βI have so much social anxiety, have been bullied so badly, that I donβt trust a barber to give me a good haircutβ
To me, it looks more like social camoflauge. "I'm just a normal guy, i have normal opinions, trust me bro" is the vibe I get. I get putting it on for things like work, but if you decide to blend in as your preferred look, ehh, i dunno, maybe I'd rather hang out with the bear, you know?
It's a fucking haircut. You sure are reading a lot into a person based on their haircut.
i'm probably in the minority w this, but blending in is comfortable as hell, as someone who doesn't really enjoy being social.
Long after the pandemic was under control I was still using a mask, partly due to health concerns back home, but mostly because with a mask, cap, and glasses, I could walk by people I know but would rather not strike up conversation.
