    I've just pulled out an errant beard hair that is ginger for only the top half, then a small gradient to white.

    This after a friend stopped dead in his tracks mid-conversation and exclaimed unsympathetically (he is somewhat on the spectrum) "Christ, you have the largest grey hair in your beard!".

    Yesterday I wrote, then didn't post here, that I'd been horrified to find a centimetre-long hair growing out of my ear. Not inner ear, my actual fucking ear, half-way up.

    • I get the random side-of-ear-hair too. I usually moan at my wife for not telling me its there. Sometimes it ends up being 2-3 cm long fine hair!microkorg

    • trimming ear hair is a part of my routine now. I hate it.section_014
