DISASTER! I went to the barber today and now I have the most ridiculous haircut EVER.

Give me the hairstyle of a noble Roman hero, I demanded as I sat down.

The idiot then clipped the top of my head totally bald, and brushed the hair from the back of my head forward.

What are you doing? I asked.

Giving you the hairstyle of a noble Roman hero, he said. Julius Caesar, to be precise. He sweeps his hair forward to cover his baldness. He also wears a crown of laurel leaves to distract people. You should probably get one of those on your way home.

 

I cant walk around with leaves on my head, I said. Everyone will tease me.

No one teases Caesar.

Of course no one teases Caesar. Hes Caesar. He could wear a curly wig and a dress and no one would tease him.

Well, its too late now, Dorkius, said the barber. Youll have to be clearer next time.

Like theres going to be a next time. Id rather grow my hair long like a stinky barbarian than go back to that loser.
