This website is inane, juvenile and has no real use. And for all those reasons I love it. Kudos to HN for being a place where I can find things that just bring some silly fun to my life. I remember in the early days of the Interwebs, there was so many sites just like this one. You didn't have to go to FB, IG or some other content mill to find them. Plus, when you did find one, it had the same feeling of excitement as…

Made me think of:

Adding my useless website to the list: http://magickeyboard.io - it’s fun to build one-off random sites and put them out there :)

what the hell is this??

I don’t even pay $30 for a haircut…

Even cheaper if you cut your own hair. I've already recouped the cost of equipment many times over. Works best when you're not going for some fancy look though and just want something clean and simple.

I give myself a buzzcut every two weeks. 21mm on top, 5mm on the sides and back, slanted cutter on 5 in the trasition zone. If it goes bad I can always do 5mm all over. Hardest is to catch the whispy fuckers around the bald spot.

I also do my kids hair, though the girls keep theirs long so thats just a matter of brushing it real neat and make a straight edge. The boy is too small to take to a hairdresser anyway.

I also do my wife's hair. She is the only one where some thought and planning is required. I'm amazed that she lets me.

I’m mostly scared of clicking shady links these days…

Idk if I’m being too paranoid but my google mailbox is full of phishing attempts…

Does not work well using a mouse on an Android phone. Choose your UI events wisely, guys!

A mouse on an Android phone? Does your phone not have a touch screen?

Why not? An external keyboard & mouse with the android phone as a display should be allowed

I kinda wish I could test going the full bald shaved head thing… before doing it.

If you go for a very short buzz you'll have a good idea of your head shape, and whether it'll help or hurt if you go hairless. I've heard that shaving it is actually a lot of work, so investing in some good clippers and buzzing is likely easier.

Yeah I imagine it’s a pretty big process. The skin up there is sensitive and prone to cuts I imagine.

Don't think it's useless. There are some activities you like, but you really shouldn't like them, because you have zero talent in them. The "shouldn't"-part especially true when acoustics come into play.

Or to quote Mike from Gamefromscratch: "I'm here to make your ears bleed." :)
