  3. Remember this is probably the type of person who screams for “free” university. You know the type….the ones with two tattooed sleeves that cost $5000 and paid for with a student loan.

    “snarky sean says… it’s not like she’s breeding schnauzers.”
    i didn’t understand purebred dog breeding until back in the
    1970’s when my then girlfriends parents started selling
    bulldogs to guys in japan for more than i was spending on
    buying cars.
    i think it’s called “laughing all the way to the bank.”

  7. Sadly … it’s only slightly more fussy than the average EPL footballer’s coif.

  9. It is kind of cute. OK for a teenage girl or sassy young woman, but you’d have to wonder about the sanity of any woman over 25 who’d wear this style outside of Halloween or cosplay.

  13. It’s not a tattoo.
    I’m with you there. Remember when the only tats you saw were on sailors and guys just released after doing hard time.
    When I see a pretty girl with her arms completely covered with some kind of juvenile picture I just shake my head. Does she have any idea what that is gonna look like in a few years after that starts to fade and smear?

  14. We don’t need a famine because she has that haircut. We need a famine because that sells newspapers.

  15. I saw the story about the lady raising her cats to be non gender specific, at least in how she talks about them, and thought we really do need a famine.
    When I was young I too thought only carnaval workers, sailors and prisoners wore tattoos. When I see all those tattoos at the local pool I think what a waste of all that young beautiful skin.

  18. Tats, piercings, bling, rainbow hair colors, outrageous costumes, etc. are all indicators of people with serious insecurity issues crying ‘look at me, look at me’. They’ll almost always suck your energy and ultimately cause you more trouble than they’re ever worth. Those are all good signs to stay well away.

  19. Just a fad–will disappear like the Hula-Hoop or the Cabbage Patch doll!!
    Could be worst–they could be getting their hair styled like Trudeau!

  20. If that is the way someone wants to look and spend their own money I’m OK with it.
    I personally don’t like the look, but I understand that people have the right to look and spend their money however the choose to. It’s called Liberty.
    Oh, and I don’t like cats, I’m allergic to cats.
    Cats give me hives from the cat protein in their saliva that they lick onto their fur and it also makes it troublesome for me to breathe.

  21. No problems with this – kudos to the artistry of the stylist, it’s creative, it’s not permanent, it’s novel and innovative, and I don’t really expect to see high school girls and college kids wearing buttoned down business suits all day. Some times you guys need to loosen up a titch…you all sound like Pastor Cruz.

  22. Imagine this: in another 40 or 50 years (long after I’m gone), seniors homes will be filled with tattooed grandmothers with names like “Muffy” and “Britney”….

  24. A few years ago, a certain young lady would come into the gym of our apartment complex. She was quite pretty and I noticed that she had tattoos not just on her arms but over her entire back.
    She was quite attractive with just her natural looks alone. The skin art did absolutely nothing to enhance them. I could only shake my head in bewilderment and wonder what possessed her to do that.

  25. With a “tramp stamp” tattoo faded and stretched, at the hem line of their Depends.

  26. seniors homes will be filled with tattooed grandmothers with names like “Muffy” and “Britney”…. … and perky fake tits.

  28. So a teen has a crazy haircut? Ugh? And? Sorry don’t quite see the issue here. When I was her age I used to have a Mohawk to go with my army jacket, ripped jeans and counterfeit dr martens… a look just about as ridiculous as hers… amazingly enough it didn’t made me a commie or a prostitute.

  29. Lance made us very tolerate of those people that aren’t Lance or Gord.
    I don’t want to criticize the girl – but I would have preferred a German Shepard yellow/black hair color with a dog figure cut in.

  30. I know people who spend tens of thousands, upgrading new trucks, or like me, collecting multiple guitars(I can only play one at a time) so for me, this doesn’t even rate a one on the degeneracy scale. What you do with your money, is your business, besides, you are only young once, and I remember when tie dyed shirts, bell bottoms, long hair, big hair, padded shoulders for women, mullets, and dozens of other things were the rage. This too, like disco, will pass, and young people will think of something else to shock their parents. As for disco, I know fifty year olds who still love the stuff, no accounting for taste, good or bad.

  31. I’m going to file this one under fauxtrage, there’s definitely a level of useless anger here.

  32. I can’t believe the insensitivity of this comment. Are you not aware that all across this country young single mothers, particularly those who are taking out students loans, have to struggle every day to decide whether to put food on the table for themselves and their children or get a new neck tattoo, a lip-piercing, a dye-job, or a night out at the club?
    Shame on you, Joey.

  33. fauxtrage? useless anger?
    Which post is that?
    So an individual may cultivate a look that raises the middle finger to convention but those observing must not peer too closely or heaven forbid have an opinion on what they are seeing?

  34. No kidding! The way all these judgemental commenters dress today would have been considered radical and unconventional at one point. So sad that conservatives would waste their time on such a shallow and useless subject when there are much more pressing issues to be discussed.

  35. ‘So sad that conservatives would waste their time on such a shallow and useless subject’
    Probably true, but that’s the point right? If your unconventional appearance hasn’t illicited a response from the squares, is it time to get back to the drawing board; pun intended?

  38. I consider myself to be a reliable curmudgeon but I have two personable Siamese cats so I see this defacement as less permanent and offensive as piercings and tattoos.

  39. Not sure how this anymore a problem then the poodle skirts, leather jackets or long hair of previous generations. All old folks complain about what youth is upto these days. Next someone will complain that thier music stinks and will not pass the test of time.

  40. This is the kind of nutcase who rides a bicycle in the middle of traffic or on the sidewalk then gives a nasty gesture to motorists and pedestrians

  41. I willingly accept Kate’s admonition and promise to retreat into the expected reliable curmudgeonry on future topics. Apologies to all SDA denizens. 🙂

  42. The whole Zoolander II movie poster on one head.
    But maybe I’m still angry I didn’t get a full mohawk when I could have….

  43. Living in a state of perpetual outrage is exhausting.
    I’ll save it for something more important than someone’s choice of hairstyle.
    Article says she is Russian, dah? It’s a nice contrast to the bellicosity of Putin’s government.

  44. Who say’s its a girl?
    Tattoo’s & Piercings, to each their own, to me it’s all self mutilation and a sign of mental issues at least to some dgree, but whatever.

  45. Smoking, excessive drinking, and eating fast food are self mutilation. I guess between that and the tattoos the entire population has mental issues.

  46. Creative, cute and it will grow out… it’s hair for crying out loud. Besides, she’s young and not looking for another place to hide the needle tracks.

  49. I think I could consider this do a reverse Mohawk
    No one wants to culturally appropriate a tonsure

  50. Let me fix that headline for you……
    “Coming soon to a gender nuetral washroom near you”.
