What they do is (a new thing?) make you come back in 5 or 6 years if they find a polyp, every 10 years if nothing is found. But only to a certain age and not sure what that age is.

I've pretty much always had to do that. Now I have to do it to put my pants on.

I've always sat down to do both those things. I thought everyone did.

68 here and always did it sitting down. Not because I'm older, just always have.

Different strokes.

I just went to a buzz cut. Easier to take care of.

SpeedBuggy · 02-04-2023, 10:19 AM

Yeah, I have graduated to the same.

In the 70's single had long hair down over the shoulder. Periodically pulled back in a ponytail.

In the 80's got married, hair cut shorter, just below the collar.

In the 90's, Kid's came along, career move, hair cut shortened up above the collar and ears.

2000's Marriage, Kids and Job, the hair thins and begins to turn grey, scissor cut trying to leave as much as possible.

2010's Balding on top and even more grey, still getting a scissor cut, but is it worth it.

2020's Awe the hell with it, buzz cut with a #3

garyfried · 02-04-2023, 10:48 AM

I'm 72 and can get my pants and my sox on while standing up, but why bother. I just say I forgot my pants and sox and leave it at that. As for hair the homeless look can work for a while.

Seems about right.

Yup, you can wash your hair with a facecloth.

My haircutter uses a #6 then #4 on the sides and back. Comb it once when I get out of the shower.

I still go to an old-fashioned barber shop that has a barber pole out front.

The same haircutter has been cutting my hair for about 17 years. She's the manager of this place that used to be a Fantastic Sams but now is called Fabulous Cuts & Color. Same place, same people work there, same owner, different name.

Since 1976, I had 5 barbers.

#1 in Halifax
#2 in Montréal
#3 in Ottawa, die on the job
#4 in Ottawa, also die on the job
#5 in Ottawa, told him that he was now my barber because the last 2 bought the farm...

If #5 dies then you'll know you're jinxing them.

Cut an artery??? WTF, I never considered barbering to be that much of a health issue when I did it back in college.
