I have never heard of hair chalking, but it looks super cool. I think my hair would look weird, because I wouldn't be able to do it as well as all those folks did!
This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Are you guys all doing this [link] and I didn't know because I don't see pictures on Facebook and stuff?
No but Franny showed me a hair chalking kit in an ad and told me she wanted it for Xmas, so there's that.
I am too sick to stay up and keep grading. sigh. I feel like a loser, but I'm going to bed anyway.

I've not tried the hair chalking thing, but I've been told that the powder will transfer onto anything your hair touches, it makes your hair feel like a gunky straw broom when the chalk is in there, it could permanently stain your hair, and will probably damage your hair anyway.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If you aren't willing to step up for permanent damage for the pretties, you can just hand back your girl card, stat. Come ON now.
And, clearly, I'd be the guy painting "Rodman®" spots on his scalp.
No fun!

Oh! Oh! Alcohol test rape guy told me I was internalising prejudice about pretty geek women, because I said a chick in lenseless hipster glasses and an R2D2 swimsuit was faking her cred.
I subsconsciously judged her. Mofucker! That was not subconscious!
I walked through the coding of the posing and composition and left the bit of it being a porn star photo shoot until the end, but seriously--is "internalising" such a buzzword now that we're not allowed to make decisions about what we see anymore?
Whether or not that woman has the Han shot first laserdisc ripped to her iPod or not--that's a clearly a manipulatively posed picture.

Oh, I totally agree with you! (Which reminds me, I need to bleach my streaks tomorrow night.) But I've seen the hair chalking thing touted as a temporary hair color, Fun And Quirky! TM thing on various blogs with no mention of the possible problems. So, caveat lector.
(Of course, I've been known to punch up my pink streaks with blush and a quick coat of hairspray. I just have a different level of Quirky Temporary Color habits.)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Happy birthday, ChiKat! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderful year!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
the hair chalking thing
On Crazy Hair Day at school, a lot of the kids and teachers do this so they have rainbow hair that doesn't last.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Birthday Happies ChiKat!
