During some recent correspondence with a monied gambling enthusiast on a popular networking site my attention was drawn to an unabashed picture of the individual concerned sporting a mullet. This particular mullet had obviously been professionally coiffed at great expense, of pocket and dignity, and could even induce a cringe across the entire east German football team.


What concerned me further however was that this person seemed to be proud of the disaster sitting upon his bonce. I'm not entirely sure how long this episode in the young gentlemans furore into the obscene carried on for, but thankfully it is no more.


So if your attention is accosted by a similar monstrosity then write in to tell us about it so we can share the humour. Although you must adhere to the strict discipline of catagorizing the haphazard hairstyle.


1) The Fe-mullet. A female mullet. Often sported by women with large rimmed glasses as well as a shell-suit jacket who can be found shopping in Iceland.


2) The Mullet-kid. By far the cruelest form of parental neglect that's often tapered of into a 'rat tail'. Actually, if you witness this contact social services.


3) The Skullet. Sported by 55+ men who were never let in on the joke. This object of humour see's their chrome-dome jacketed by tiresome locks that have greyed a bit.


4) Midget Mullet. By far the rarest of combinations. Last seen on Conan The Barbarian. Although it's rumoured the guy who operated R2D2 had one.


5) The Afro-mullet. It's extensively groomed. This mode of mullet is set aside for the dedicated 'chosen few'. It's curly yet almost smooth in it's sheen with no characteristic sharp edges found on the common mullet.


6) Business in the front, party at the back Mullet. Most common with the eighties band/groupie kids. This is unsurprisingly the most untamed form of mullet that has many knots and gnarls through lack of grooming.


Over to you.

I remember a piece of comedy gold from the Beastie Boys' fanzine Grand Royal about 10 or 12 years ago where their "correspondent" got his long, metal style hair cut into a mullet as a piece of social reportage to assess if he was treated differently by people he encountered. I didn't stop laughing for about a week.


Admittedly some of it was shooting fish in a barrel, like going into guitar shops and the staff making the assumption that he was after some sort of flying V style monstrosity, but it was just the mundane business of the guy going about his life and general business that made it so funny. He described various people's instantaneous response to his ludicrous Barnet as running the full gambit of reactions from bewilderment leading to over played normality and attempted polite indifference, to mirth and disgust.


It really was very funny.

      Chicks and ducklings

      By malumbu · Posted

      Hmmm, millions of animals are killed each year to eat in this country.  10,000 animals (maybe many more) reared to be eaten by exotic pets, dissected by students, experimented on by cosmetic and medical companies.  Why is this any different? Unless you have a vegan lifestyle most of us aren't in a position to judge.  I've not eaten meat for years, try not to buy leather and other animal products as much as possible but don't read every label, and have to live with the fact that for every female chick bred to (unaturally) lay eggs for me to eat, there will be male that is likely top be slaughtered, ditto for the cow/milk machines - again unnatural. I wasn't aware that there was this sort of market, but there must be a demand for it and doubt if it is breaking any sort of law. Happy to be proved wrong on anything and everything.

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me.

      If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

      I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.
