Final Sale:
Mustache Panache: “So this will be final sale, is that okay?”
Customer: “Yeah that’s fine. I really like your mustache.”
MP: “Thank you!”
Customer: “I’m sure you get that all the time.”
MP: “Actually, it’s been a really long time since anyone has said anything about it.”
It’s true. There has been a real dearth of mustache-related interaction recently.
Fixie Perfect:
Finally got my bike back from Kelly today. Riding up the walkway from the Esplanade to Mass Ave., a big group of bros walk by. One exclaims apostrophically, “Sick ‘stache!”
PS I’m on the phone with Allison Janice.
Last Week of Undergrad Edition:
On Wednesday, I turned in my thesis with Katie, and we went to the Sweetwater to have a drink (and a meal). A couple sat down next to us as we were about to leave. The man, whom I did not recognize, said, “Whoa! Your mustache used to be really long!” And then, totally crestfallen, he uttered, “But you trimmed it…”
I looked at Katie, then back to him. ”How did you know that?” I asked.
Man: “How could you not know?”
Ah yes, a very compelling argument.
Katie and I left. A few seconds later, she asked, “Was I…was I just present for a blog moment?”
You sure were, Katie. You sure were.
