For whatever it's worth, Doritos and Oreos are Vegan foods.
I commend you for helping to save the planet.0 -

Since the kids have been off school I no longer feel the need to have convenience snacks in the house. We have been oreo free for two months! π’3 -

okay, I've always been pretty proud of my hair.
I have dark, healthy hair and there's not a lot of grey peeking thru (thanks mom / thanks dad / thanks God).
anyway, for the last couple of decades it's been - good haircut + clean shaven; that's just how I am.
Covid hits and I think: 'No client meetings, no social interaction.... why not just let the beard grow.'
10 weeks later, it's been trimmed, however make no mistake, it's a full beard.
Barbershops everywhere are closed and my hair is getting a little shaggy (like most everyone else).
I have hair trimmers with a variety of attachments.
Three weeks ago, the TrophyWife gives me a trim around the ears and neckline. No worries, it looks good and I'm happy.
Flash forward to last weekend.
I ask her to do the same..... only this time, I screw-up.
I give her the trimmers with the wrong attachment. It's the close one, the number #1.
She does a quick pass and utters "Ut oh..."
I look in the mirror.
This isn't good, but I think it can be salvaged.
She trims more on the sides and the back.
Then some more.
She says: ' You need to take a look at the back, it's not good.'
In the mirror, I take a look at the back; she's right, it's not good.
I think: 'I can fix this; I damn sure can!'
The Trophywife gives up and leaves not wanting to inflict any more carnage. I don't blame her.
I'm right-handed and I'm using my left hand while looking into a mirror that's looking into another mirror while trying to repair a haircut on the back of my melon. The odds of success are slim.
However, I make a pass and think: 'Dang, yeah... this is okay.... just one more pass up just a little higher and I'm good! "
I make the last pass with the clippers. Complete Disaster.
I looks like mange on a hyena. (with apologies to hyenas everywhere.)
Okay, man... think.... what to do?
Semper Fi
Yep... clippers on the closest setting. I ran that *kitten* front to back with about 12 passes to level it all out.
The last time I had a cut like this, I was in the second grade playing little league baseball during the Summer months.
Family reactions were:
'Well, that's different.'
and
'Cool, I like it.'
and
'You screwed up, you should have opted for the mohawk.'
anyway.... from clean shaven and longer, styled hair to full beard & buzz cut.
That is all
..... carry on.

the buzzcut occurred on Saturday.

I'll eventually pull them all together.
