Noticing other bald guys
« on: February 01, 2014, 12:06:18 AM »
Greetings.  I think this has been raised before (not sure where), but it seems that bald guys truly are everywhere!  I'm shy about speaking to strangers, but occasionally I say to another sly guy, "Great haircut!"  Today, I encountered (in a good way) two bald men.  One was a young guy, I'd say 20-25, with a 0 buzz.  I saw him as I ate my sub at a local shop.  I didn't realize it when I got up to leave, but he was directly behind me, so when I saw him, I held the door open.  He thanked me (which was natural, but not everyone does it), and then added, "Have a great day!"  Not sure our both being bald had anything to do with it.

This evening, when I bought a bottle of wine at the liquor store, a woman (no, she wasn't bald!) was giving out samples of tequila.  I said, truthfully, that I didn't care too much for tequila, so she mixed me a miniature tequila sunrise.  That was my experience with that drink, and I liked it!  I said, again truthfully, that I couldn't taste the tequila.  As I was sipping it, I heard a voice behind me say, "Is this the bald head line?"  I turned around and saw a gent about my age (61) with a completely smooth scalp.  I turned to him and answered, "I guess SO!"  I forgot to tell him, "nice haircut."  One of the sales clerks was sly, and the other three were almost so.  Interestingly, I heard the woman with the tequila say to a couple of other guys, "I need to see an ID before I give you this."  She didn't "card" me or the other bald guy!

I have this strange urge to hang around other guys with shaved heads, sort of peer support.  Maybe I'll volunteer at a fire house or an army base!

Yes. once you are sly you certainly notice other bald guys and there are plenty of them out there.

I have occasionally made comment to other bald guys eg at the gym I have said 'all this gym work doesn't make your hair grow" and that has led to some interesting conversations.

A real brotherhood.

Had dinner at Fuddruckers with my wife and daughters. At the next table was a very sly bald guy with his wife and daughter. I just had to say something.  Had a nice brief conversation.  Two bald guys at adjacent booths.

That just goes to show you the Brotherhood that comes along with the Bald lifestyle, I personally follow the Bald code and say hi and nod my head to every BaldGuy I see, well, in general you should be polite and courteous to everyone, that's just good old fashioned manors, but talking specifically Bald related it's a brotherhood that is growing daily, it's a great time to be Bald!
