Want to Know How Much They Are


There are many bar code guys in Japan. They lost hair on top of their head, so they bring their little hair of the side to the other side via top of the head. Of course, it is not enough to cover all of their head, and seem unnatural. So, it's look like "bar code".Therefore they are sometimes called "バーコードオヤジ(bar code man)" or "バーコードハゲ(bar code bald)". However, you must not say the "bar code" when a man who has the hair is beside you. He may get shocked...or angry and you would involved in a trouble.

Most people who have little hair look that they don't have confidence about their looks. Maybe they think only if they had lots of hair...bla bla bla. Why do I think so is because a lot of people who don't have hair is trying to hide it by making their head like bar code. It may be a good way to hide their skin of top of their head, however, so UNNATURAL. Hair like kappa (it is a imaginary living that lives in rivers, and has a plate on its head) looks poor, however, bar code hair is so too. At least, I think so. Bar code hair makes us pay attention to his head. Think that a man who has poor hair on his side head, washing it carefully and setting the hair with a hair spray to bar code shape. Hmmm....looks soooooo poor. :S To people like that, it is better not to mention about hair. They will get upset. :( I would think that it is better not to hide the bald head, if I were a man, and noticed that my hair was decreasing. I'd rather shave all of my hair than hiding it with making bar code! Isn't it sportsmanlike? lol.

One day, I saw a man who has poor hair on the train. I was surprised his skin around his hair was so red. I thought that he tried using some strong medicine for growing hair. Of course it is not sure...but I thought people can try so hard like this when they want to take their hair back.

By the way, I want to do one thing to バーコードハゲ. It is...READING THEIR PRICE WITH A BAR CODE READER!! Do you think that it is possible? How poor he is if he were only ¥100? He can be sold at a 100 yen shop then. :D I'm sure that I'm too naughty and rude in this archive. What I have to say is...I'm sorry for bar code people all over Japan. Or all over the world, if they exist out of Japan.

ばれりー, I never knew you had it inside you! You're a true comedian! I couldn't stop laughing after reading this post. I must admit, after glancing at this archive's title and its corresponding image I was expecting a totally different plot. Oh boy was I in for a surprise. Cutting to the chase, people with the aforementioned hair deficiency reside all over the world, so it's not restricted to Nihon I guess. Naturally I'd try to cover my bald spot as well granted I had one. Meh, it's an unfortunate deficiency if I must say. I know I'd hate to be bald at a young age. Gee, your comparison to a bar code was totally classic nonetheless. *High Five* You've got quite the imagination, huh? XD~

der.. I think someone's been hitting the books a wee too hard.. @_@

so.. what happens when in 40 years you become バーコードおばあさん? mm.. I bet you just jinxed yourself too.. :P

but anyways.. dunno what you expect from society these days.. there's a bit of vanity in everyone.. though if you're into fashion then even more so.. hairstyle's not all that different from how people dress.. one man's trash is another man's treasure.. bar code guy might be a turn off for you - but who knows, maybe it's a turn on for the おばあさん next to you.. :P but whatever, you can let me know in another 40 years, lol

sides, bar codes aren't the worst.. I've seen brillo pads, wreaths, and gorbachev birthmarks that are way worse..

so.. what's with all the hand warmers? O.o

I don't have so interesting humor. :S I wish I had a skill enough to entertain people...At least, don't want to bore people. But anyway, if you enjoyed my archive, I am glad. :P

Hmmm...yeah, maybe my taste(?) will change in 40 years. But, I won't be a バーコードおばあさん. :P Women don't become bald because of woman hormone. There are many things that make people not looking good ne. :S Sucks. I want to be as pretty as I can however I get old. :(

Yeah, your archives are certainly fun to read. I wonder how you come up with the topics. O.o Bah, as for me, I can barely come up with topics worth writing about. X_X Anyway, please keep writing fun stuff, I sure can kill off some of the boredom after hours of studying at school. XDD

Hmmm...but I will lose my topics to write, lol. Have to find something interesting and write it down. :P
