Man buns.

I've only been back up a handful of times over the last couple of years, and never saw one in the town (apart from footy players at the Vic). I'd like to think Hartlepool would be the last place in the country where one is spotted on the streets. There's so much wrong with them, I don't know where to start.

Haha there's a poster on this thread with one. Wish I had enough hair to attempt to grow one

People who say " I`m stoked" or " wrapped" and are not even Australian.

Serious question about 'man buns'. What is the difference between them and ordinary buns that women have had as hairstyles for centuries? As far as I can see they're just a way of keeping long hair tied up and are just buns whoever they are on.

Just asking because I've always fancied having a massive '60s beehive but haven't because it could be seen as a women's thing. I'm wondering if it will be OK if I call it a 'man hive' and maybe don't wear the false eye lashes.

...purely as a comfort thing?

Not sure the pink city is ready for that, like.... bbolt

True, they never saw Coronation Street so they won't understand that I'm channeling Bet Lynch. Which sounds a bit rude anyway.

Probably need a footballer to wear the man hive first. If Billy Paynter had one he'd look like Amy Winehouse and get an advantage at corners as long as he used a lot of extra-hold hairspray. Might write to the club suggesting it.

Just the same. But with it being on a man it's a man bun.

Also some men shave the back and sides. Long on the top in a bun. Not many women do that. Maybe butch ones

My hair is long enough to put it in a man bun/top knot, I actually tend to tie it up when playing football or going for a jog. Getting it cut tomorrow though so might not be able to going forward.

I think LGBT already cater for such types Yubep

What pisses me off is those pour caps they build into spirit bottles these days.
It takes bloody ages to fill a half pint glass with vodka. And they make refilling for other uses impossible.

I suddenly feel really old and out of touch now.

I'll be in the shed, waiting for my Saga magazine.

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Fri Oct 14, 2016 2:31 pm

I've been for a haircut and sadly my hair is now no longer long enough for a man bun/top knot. Sorry Yubep.

Just want to add to the pissed off list.

Dickheads who add "High Importance" to emails when it's completely unnecessary, same goes for read receipts.

There is definitely a market for Mam cards, if somebody just printed a shed load of cards that say "Happy Birthday Mam" in big letters on the front and blank inside, they would make a fortune.

Just get a pen and join the two points of the U up.

I'd have one of them.

My mams not the best, I just want to say happy birthday n nothing more.

Buying a bottle of beer at a weddiing to find out it was £6.50 a bottle.

If you are aware of any friend or relative about to get married at wynyard hall tell them to stop being pretentious c unts.

And this was my first day back on the drink after 4 years teetotal.

And dancing.

Not that I partake in this extremely poncey activity but plenty did at this wedding which drew looks of displeasure my way as I refused to join in.

I judt dont get blokes that enjoy such activities.

The apprentice.

I can't think of any sane person that would employ any of the fuckers that go on that shite.

I would only employ them as human bait in a shark tank.

Alan suger must be a fucking loon.

Imagine if the process was full of straight up people with brilliant business plans without a single bellend in sight.

That would make brilliant television wouldn't it?

As it happens I reckon it is still consistently of the best things on tele each year but this current crop so far do seem particularly thick, the Indian bloke is comedy gold.

You get your first, uninvited Saga mailshot on your 50th birthday. That pissed me off!
