Hat Hair

Thanks to the weather turning ridiculously cold, I am now dealing with a case of hat hair. To those of you who are unfamiliar with hat hair,  below is an unofficial definition: Hat Hair – (n) Hair that has become mashed down, frizzy, or some other variation of f*cked up after the removal of a [...]

salad

Hairmegeddon

The other day, I bought a salad from a restaurant I’ve never been to before. I ate 2/3s of it, and openly proclaimed that it was outstanding. The taste gave me the urge to grin like an idiot, but I thought to myself “Leon, act like you been there before” and wisely kept my cool. [...]

She HOT!!!

Literally AND figuratively! I probably shouldn’t be laughing at someone’s weave catching fire, but the ballerific nature of that whole scene makes it hilarious.
