stephbgI'm thinking of shaving my head. Not in a Brittney Spears kind of way, more an early mid-life crisis perfectly rational kind of way. It would seem to save a lot of trouble.
First of all, thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
krjalk for putting up your hand for a bit of "um, are you sure?" action, and to fredmouse and cricketk for just being you. You can indeed get away with murder if "it's for charity".
I must now point out that this was indeed an April 1st exercise, from which I confirmed, learned or at least may hypothesise the following:
I suck at this
I am a bad liar, even in text. I can deliver a line with a straight face, no regrets and to occasional effect, but I'm pretty sure that uses a different part of my brain than the bit that manufactures and delivers porky pies. Very literal minded creature am I, although there appears to be a loophole for comic effect. Oh for an MRI or PET of one's own.
That would explain my aversion to marketing hype.
Most people figured it out and chose not to comment
So you should. It was a shocker.
It was a bit too close to the bone and in poor taste
I've gone through some rough times lately and perhaps people believed it a little too much to be sure I was joking and at the same time were deeply concerned about my state of mind. sorry
No-one else was I don't think you really read these things paying attention
What??? The horror!!!
Bad brain.
