misadventures in personal hygiene - The Firearms Forum

I have word from a highly respectable source that one of our beloved forum members has had a drastic change in appearance. It seems this person was a bit careless with a trimmer. I'll let the guilty party confess on their own. Just think, this person loads his own ammo and has guns.

Oh this is war I tell you, war!!! It wasn't my fault that the plastic end of the trimmer fell off while I was trimming my eye brows and didn't know it. Then to top it off the wifey texts everybody I know about it,,, oh this is soooo great. I could not be happier if I woke up with my head sowed to the carpet.

OK 68, I see my wife texted you too. I wish I lived closer to you. Oh, and just great. I suppose I will hear from JLA and T2S also.

I pray this OOPS! wasn't something requiring the immediate application of a tourniquet, and that whatever got trimmed will eventually grow back on its own.

So the story goes,,, I was trimming my hair, mustache and eyebrows out back and talking to my dog, Jake (he is rather intelligent, so we talk a lot cause he thinks I'm smart too). Suddenly my wife opens the sliding glass door and distracted me with conversation. Suddenly I noticed a little black plastic piece on the ground at my feet and realized it was the trimmer guard to my eye brow trimmer. Great, now my eye brows are pretty much gone except for my inner eyebrows. Now I look like I have little horns coming out of my forehead.

My wife began laughing at me hysterically and has text ed everyone we know.

Oh well, I am already bald. How bad can a guy look?

It could be worse. Imagine what would happen if you didn't trim.

I just use scissors myself, us electrical profession guys, (some of us anyway), have an aversion to electricity near our tender parts and eyes is tender.

Oh yeah. We need pictures, highboy!

Dont make us resort to getting Mrs. Highboy or Jake uploading them, cause they may post some humorous and unrelated pictures just for some more fun.
