I remember on some thread a few moons ago regarding the Rant tour, Chuck was bald at one of the events in a pic. I believe it was for a post-tour reading, in fact. The dude who posted the pic said he'd post a summary of events, including the reason Chuck is bald. That flared my interest, but I either never went back to that thread, or the guy never wrote the piece. Anyone have an idea, I just randomly thought of it today, and it's been effin with me.

He shaves his head after each book comes out to symbolize how each book is a new beginning or something along those lines.

Ahh man, that guy ripped me off, he made it sound like there was a story behind it!

Maybe there is, and I'll have to keep searching...

If Hitlery wins, I'm shaving the fro bald and moving to the woods.

He should keep his hair and grow out those lambchops again.

My friend Joe refers to that as "Palahniuk hippie hair".

A) It refers to baldness.

Glasses Many conservatives of the like would join me, so its not exclusively Libertarian.

What the fuck has that to do with Chuck's baldness?

Why do you feel the need to turn every thread into an exchange that goes like this:

You: Imma LIBERTARIAN!!!1!
Dude: *counter-argument*
*repeat ad-nauseum*
Everyone else: Shut the fuck up.

We get it. You somehow equate Hillary Clinton with Hitler, making you exactly the worst kind of person to try to have politcal discourse with, yet you insist in shoving it in everyone's face in every damned thread, where no one will respond because it would mean hijacking the thread. Those are called cheap shots. If you want to talk about politics, start a thread.

Wait, is there a new cult policy that things need to be on topic? That defeats the purpose of a forum like this. Keep real life out of this.

And I can't even remember ever having a political discussion on this site. Wait...there was a global warming thread, but people that was not serious discussion.

Calm down guy. You're being very undude.

I have never met a libertarian who knew what the fuck they were talking about. It's always some variation of: "Yeah, fuck payin' taxes just so the poor can eat and we can drive on roads and stuff! Yeah, and they should legalize weed, too!" After that, they run out of talking points.

To go completely off topic here Chuck said in an interview about his ritual head-shaving:

"It's a way of acknowledging that nothing is so sacred that it can't be made better. Suddenly that precious person who you've primped and worked so carefully to make look good, there's no saving that person. That person is fucked. He's lost his ego. He's lost his identity. He's been humiliated. And it totally frees you up."

I think he does between his first and second draft of the novel, as if to say, again, that nothing is so sacred that it cant be removed...

Hope this help you liberal hippie!

i agree with dan. chuck really should consentrate on the chops over the mop. (and nice find on that real dolls vid)

im really not buying a grown man putting so much ritualistic symbolism on his hair. a guy his age is lucky to have it. maybe something happens to it when he writes his books, like it gets dirtied up or something. stale booze smell is a bitch to get rid of. i bet not even carpet deoderizer cuts it after writing one of his books.

Caligs, it ain't about paying for things, its about being locked up and/or killed. Fell free to converse with me, you'll cease to be able to say they don't exist. I'll make a fidel outta ya.

By the way, John Locke, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson, yeah, they all kicked ass. As does Ron Paul. And I've never smoked weed, nor plan to.

I started shaving my head because I got a really bad haircut at Supercuts and then I realized I look good with a shaved head. It's just so easy to take care of, and it's like shaving your face, it becomes routine and it does feel good, good like pleasurable. Nothing better feeling than a freshly shaved noggin. Makes me feel really clean. Makes me feel sharp. makes me feel in control of my own life, even if I'm not sometimes. Mainly I do it because girls like it and I like when girls like the way I look. Not all girls, persay... just the ones I want to like it. Same with muscles. I work out for the benefit of those who appreciate muscles. If you don't "get it", you don't "get it"... like Nascar... I just don't "get it"... but I'm sure plenty of people do "get" Nascar. I just don't want to be one of those people...

I concur. And Nascrap really pisses me off, the racetrack in NH is in the next town over, and the weekend of the races, the highway is so crowded you can't use it and Wal-Mart becomes a netherworld of beer sales, as opposed to an ordinary netherworld.

I may be joining you in the smooth head club.

Do it but wear a different wig every time, that way you can disguise yourself before each signing.
