walter white wtf are you talking about meme

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

I hated that hairstyle when I was a kid too lol.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 6 days ago

Not me. Fierce flowing all the way from birth and having absolutely zero regrets. Damn I was drowning in pussy in my teenage years and didn't even realize it back then. So... suck it, dumbass kids with your dumb little haircuts!

I've never had hair like that, but the pic seems like a pretty normal haircut I've seen from mid-90s through to now

[–] [email protected] 55 points 1 week ago (2 children)

It's basically just a crew cut...AKA one of the most popular short haircuts of all time!

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 week ago

Yeah but the signature of this was the propped up "wave" in the front, I remember that being huge through elementary and middle school in the 90s

The early 90's mushroom haircut trend was worse by far

[–] [email protected] 77 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Once the butt cut was peak hair.

It’s back bay-bee!

I’m just waiting for the other early 2000s hair trends to come back. Frosted tips, insane amounts of gel to spike it up, maybe some pukka shell necklaces? Maybe some Hawaiian shirts? Maybe those big ball chains? Converse? Just bring back third wave ska?

This picture may represent humanity at its peak.

This was the time when rock stars wore heavy makeup, painted their nails, had long lucious curly hair wore pants that cut off circulation

Nobody said they were “gay” or “trans”, they were just rock and fucking roll and whatever they wanted

I'm sorry but this is erasure of the very real homophobia these glam metal bands experienced as part of later backlash.

And the guys in Skid Row tell of going out in public in the late eighties with “their hair stacked to the sky” and fighting with rednecks who called them removeds (Konow 296). While I never had to duke it out with anyone because of my long hair (the extent of my glam look), I did have similar experiences in the real world. Once, when with my mom at Huntington House, a now-defunct furniture store, a female sales clerk came up behind us and asked, “Can I help you ladies?” And on another occasion, when looking at clothes at Joslins in the Westminster Mall, a woman approached me from behind while remarking, “What do we have here? A lady looking at men’s pants!”

Imagine a haircut like this instead. It was all the rage in Brazil back in 2002:

Flex on early balding people by leaving hair only where theirs does not grow.

Battery clipper runs out of juice at exactly the wrong time and you just lean into it.

Speak for yourself, I had frosted and fire tips.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

Billabong sweater, or T-shirt over long arms. Oakleys, baggy low on the hip jeans and (possibly JNCO even if I prefered other brands) DC skateboard shoes. Soundtrack - The Offspring - Conspiracy of One. I would jack back into 2000 in an instant

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Man I lived in DCs for years. Zero arch for my flat feet and they just slipped on. Even good for working in restaurants.

If you can’t bully children for their terrible haircuts, why even perpetuate their creation?

[–] [email protected] 38 points 1 week ago (2 children)

What’s wrong with that haircut? It’s neat and looks good and ladies like it. That broccoli cut is just atrocious.

When I was a kid it was the bowl cut, now that’s a travesty. The haircut in the picture is nice

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago

It's all arbitrary mate

No way, broccoli hair is significantly worse than almost any other hairstyle.

You couldn't convince me broccoli hair was not started as a meme to see if people would make themselves look dumb to follow a trend.

What the fuck is broccoli hair?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago

What do you even ask for at the barbers to end up with that?

Skin fade to pot noodle, please mister?

How about we let people style their hair however the fuck they like. I see all these comments ridiculing different haircuts as if being fucking apes with hair going in slightly different ways at different lengths blabbering on about which way is better wasn’t the ridiculous part.

It is the right of younger generations to confuse older gens with their style and older ones to be confused/offended by them. A tale as old as time.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Teenagers have had broccoli hair for the past 5 years. It's boring. Invent a new fad already, I want a new thing to make fun of

The Suebian knot, a common hair style 2000 years ago. I'll take the broccoli over that.

But I'll like the viking hair styles more.

But I'm just a lazy fuck with a common ponytail because I don't want to visit a hairdresser every few months.

That looks like a fine haircut.

This is not nearly as bad as the broccoli fuck boys although this definitely was the hairstyle of the future fuck boys I was in elementary school with back in the day.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Bad hair? Lemme 'mullet' over.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago

Still a hell of a lot better than that beiber swoosh hairstyle.

Yeah, but you didn't have to go get a perm done for that style. You just got a $15 hair cut.

That haircut is fine. The broccoli cut and the school shooter bowl cut are not.
