I'm apparently too young to have gray hair and too old to have dark brown, so I stick with auburn and touch it up every two weeks. I'm generally discontent.
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

And you'd think they could at least stop by FedEx or someplace before they get in the security line and ship their weapons home. I know that when the bans went into effect, a catalog for needlework supplies I used to get started highlighting a thread cutter that would go through easily (small round with notches that had sharp edges inside).
I once heard someone complaining that a necklace with a bullet pendant was confiscated ... which may be taking it too far.

The batarang budget is bigger than you think. It's easy to lose track of things.

I only feel bad for people who forget about, say, their Swiss Army Knife.
That happened to me on my last flight, forgot a multi-tool. So I got the full pat down and everything. I was too fascinated by the process to be worried.

I'm a bad person. I have a kitchen full of food and all I want to eat is pizza.

Our wings are not tired
so I am now the owner of a new Mazda 3!
That's what I'm driving now. Got it a couple of months ago and love it.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I don't feel bad for those people. I feel bad for society that we have these people.
I wish my hair would just go all grey or white. Pink and blue rinses, baby!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Zen, I think your bar for "bad person" is set too low. Maybe you should go outside and hurl insults at passing cars or something.
I approve of a Rogue streak as well.
My hair is getting steadily more salt and pepper, but I'm not yet ready to go gray. I'm not sure I'll ever be, I've been dying my hair since I was 16. I could see myself stop coloring it the brown I have now, but then I'd probably want some purple or something.
So I had a big talk with my boss yesterday, and the upshot is that I am on the slow road to applying for promotion to full professor. Kind of a big step, but it's gotta be me or the department will start to stagnate. And it brings up a lot of conflicted feelings including imposter syndrome and "do I want this stress in my life?"
