Back around Thanksgiving I was going to head into a Claire's Boutique to get a couple of holes shot in my ears. By coincidence there is a waxing salon right across the hall from the CB so I decided to get the old man hair situation resolved so the piercing tech wouldn't have to part the hair to shoot the studs into my lobes. So, initially I was going to get just the ear hair yanked out but then I realized that the bug filters in my nostrils had become quite dense so I decided to get that ripped out, too.
There were two young women (probably 17-18) sitting in the chairs to my right and they were intent on watching my process. When the waxing lady depilated the nostrils it made a noise that sounded like tearing a bedsheet and one of the girls said to the other "Did you see that? He didn't even flinch!".
Old guys ROCK!
