I got a haircut last week.  That's not usually a big deal, but this was an especially bad haircut.

Let me back up.  I usually keep my hair pretty long.  Five or six inches is normal, and combed back.  It's all most of my co-workers and many of my friends have ever seen.  A couple weeks ago, I came down with an impressively bad case of dermatitis

I managed something similar last time I shaved.

The most unintentionally memorable one went thus:

them: "Whoa, you shaved?"
me: "Nah, it just migrated south for the winter"
*mutual pause*
me: "Wait--" them: "eeeeeewwww" me: "--ahhh fuck. I'm not living that one down am I."

Yeah. Uh. Whoops.

Now you've done it.

I'm using that one on purpose the next time.

Because *I* always win, that's why.

I still liked my answer when I got my first real look at you the morning after.

"You look like you lost a bet."

Tact, thy name is mine.
