LOL... I have officially given up.... I'm going for the laser hair removal treatment to remove the rest of it. I look more sexier without hair anyway....

I clip what's left very short. I look at it this way: there's two ways you can disguise baldness - either with long comb overs, or completely shaving or removing any trace of hair. If you clip what hair you've got left short, that shows you don't give a **** about being bald.

…must…get…off…LQ…
I didn't mean it in quite that way. I don't drink alcohol or smoke or even drink coffee. I'm saying that maybe you should go out and see the world, observe nature, take a vacation, etc. It will help your way of thinking. You're thinking too much inside the box ... perhaps because you live in a box ... I don't know tho.

One of the two most essential things to have to be intelligent - Think outside the box, and being open-minded.

I know, I was referring to the fact that (yet again) people are telling me "you need to get out more"…

You could say I "think outside the box", but probably not in the way you're talking about. Discussing it probably doesn't belong on LQ…not because it's inappropriate/NSFW or anything (well, depending on how you look at it and if you buy into a certain stereotype, maybe it is ), but because it would probably just turn this thread into a giant pity party over my personal opinions/problems, possibly along with ridicule/trolling.

As to "being open-minded", yes, that's definitely something I prolly need to work on; do a post search for my username and the keyword "determinis(tic|m)" and you'll know exactly why.

I have a feeling that it was either a response to the ongoing discussion about "thinking outside the box"/"getting out more", or it was something to bring this thread back on track. I think the former is more likely, though…

None of them MrCode.

It was something you said about waiting one more year to legally drink beer.

Anyway, In the post where it says EDIT, I wrote I tried beer at age 18. I decided to remove it because it may influence younger members to try drinking before of legal age.

You made a wise decision to wait until your age of 21 to try drinking
