Two Euphemisms I Invented this Morning in the Shower

Don't say, "He trims his beard." Nope, he "engages in scissors-facilitated picking."
Nobody shaves. They just "engage in extreme trimming."

Is there any way you can make it that one can subscribe to comments without leaving a comment?

Or is it possible to get comments in google reader?

Just like a guy said...

You can get an RSS feed of the comments.

Just like a guy said...

Or else I can change the settings.

i feel for you boys who have been attacked by children. it's a lot easier for a girl to get her hair out of reach. but then again, you don't have to be worried that some child is going to grab your earring and then just keep pulling... ooh, that's not a pretty sight.

All goyish children are afraid of my beard. All frum kinderlach like my beard. Children of fried-out parents like my beard proportional to the validity of their mother’s Jewishness.

(I think I should provide my services to Israeli rabbinate. But then again…)
