    Baldness implies thinning or lack of hair, especially on the head. In humans, baldness generally means androgenic alopecia or "male pattern baldness" or its variant "female pattern baldness". This syndrome occurs in adult male and some female humans and other species. The degree and pattern of baldness can vary greatly; it includes male and female pattern alopecia (androgenic alopecia). This syndrome is also called androgenetic alopecia or alopecia androgenetica. An older term is alopecia seborrheica, used primarily in Europe.

    So...yeah, not a hair style, but an affectation of normal body works.

  • Thanks Juan.
    I think this metaphor is well and truly worn out now.
    Point being that Black is NOT a colour. It is the lack of colour.

  • Till shade is gone, till water is gone, into the Shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath, to spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the last Day.
    color is srs bsns

    If you're into aesthetics like me, yes, very much so.
  •   Colour. 
  • Useful Note: Syndrome isn't the disease, rather it is the signs and symptoms of the disease.

    I never said disease. I said "affetation of how the body works"

    Because it's obvious it isn't a disease good and properly.

    For the record... I'm sitting in black pyjamas on my black bed, typing on a black keyboard with a black mouse, looking at a black monitor between two black speakers. Nearby is my pile of clothes, consisting of black boxers, black trousers, black belt, black shirt, black jacket, black wallet, black card-wallet, keys on a black keychain..... next to a roll of gaffer-tape (because duct-tape isn't black). My bag is black, my shoes are black, my XBox 360 and all its controllers are black. My glasses-case is black (and has sunglasses inside for when I go outside), my wireless adapter is black, my watch and my TV-remote are black.



    My mousepad is not black. It has pictures of kittens on it <3 ... and it is on top of my copy of the D&D 3.5 Player's Handbook... also not black.

    Also my next bath towel is blue and white... but I didn't buy that. Most of my other towels are black.


  • I am Dr. Ned who is totally not Dr. Zed in disguise.
    ^ But is your skin black? If not you aren't trying hard enough.
  • Nobody has black skin. Nobody.  Probably half the reason brown people get called "black"... either that or people on average are too pigshit-thick to know the difference between black and brown.

    Either way, I'm caucasian, paler than average due to hiding from the sun, and don't particularly relish the idea of having my entire body tattooed black.
  • I am Dr. Ned who is totally not Dr. Zed in disguise.
    It is complete body tattoo black or nothing.

  • I come from a long line of third-option-takers. We predate Batman by centuries.

    Every time someone comes on with a vague comment about problems or self-depreciation and they go on posting over and over until I or someone else asks what's wrong, and THEN they say they only want to talk over PM with their buddies rather than share it with strangers like myself, I have to resist a serious urge to reply with "OKAY GO FUCK YOURSELVES THEN". I never do, because that's insensitive and they may have a genuine problem, but it's so tempting sometimes.
  • Weird. Strangers are my favourite people to share my problems with... as I know they can't / won't bring those same problems up later.
    Back when I was a teenager, I used to log into Phantasy Star Online as one of my female characters when I was upset, pretend to be a girl and use it to get sympathy from strangers. It was very warped of me... but y'know... no regrets. ^_^  ...
  • You can change. You can.
    Agreed, Ninjaclown...


  • ^^^^ It's convenient. To many people, it'd be awkward to just drop a PM saying "I feel like shit and want to talk to you", particularly in a place where it's hard to parse how close people are to you. In that sense, saying "I feel like shit" in a public space, and wait for them to say "would you like to talk?" is generally more comfortable.
  • You can change. You can.
    While I can understand that, I just feel that it's kinda...well, sometimes you should be open to more people. At least, if what you need is advice.
  • Then how come every time I come back to TVT, random tropers I don't care about keep sending me weird PMs that I don't feel like responding to?
  • Woki mit deim Popo.
    What do they PM you about anyway?
  • It was a joke, silly.

    But seriously, I can't say or they'll probably see this and get mad at me and I don't want that to happen for some reason, I guess. :<
  • #1. Make long, sharp icicles in the freezer. Ensure they're super sharp, then stick them in thermos flasks.

    #2. Hunt strangers at night and stab them to death with the icicles.

    #3. Apply hot flame to the icicles to simultaneously remove the murder-weapon AND denature genetic evidence.

    #4. ????

    #5. Profit!
  • I get peeved because they whine and moan repeatedly in an open space, then when I ask what's wrong they tell me directly they don't feel comfortable. If they just wanted to PM their friends, then...JUST PM their friends. No need to make a public nuisance of yourself.
  • Well, if they complain too much about being uncomfortable, stab them more until they stop complaining. It is quite simple.... and besides, nobody ever said an icicle in the gut was supposed to be comfortable.
  • Any specific examples. ninjaclown?
  • You can change. You can.
    I don't think the rules would allow that, Don.

    That said, I've seen them a lot myself and I get how that feels, but...Noimporta raises a valid point anyway.
  • I suppose. Maybe I just don't like rejection when I'm right there willing to lend an ear, you know?
  • Clean your room little Billy

    Y'know, I think I can count the number of PM's I've sent in my time on the forums on my hands. I think it's a side effect of staying out of the Insecurities thread most of the time.

  • You can change. You can.
    I actually used to PM a lot more when I didn't visit that thread...don't know what that says, really.
