Life Lessons with Stalin

DerekJohnson

When you're getting a haircut in a Vietnamese salon, it's not a good idea to bring up the Vietnam War.

Let this be a lesson for you kids out there.

I can't contemplate this wisdom while we are at war with Iran.

Derek, I have the hat IRL if you want to wear it next time. Got it years ago for Halloween. The costume never panned out though.

If by 'salon' you mean 'massage parlor' and by 'haircut', you mean 'rub and tug'.....yes, I see your point.

To paraphrase Freud, sometimes a haircut is just a haircut.

When I get my haircut at the Vietnamese salon I like to tell them that $5 is all my mom allows me to spend.

I went on to bring up the Vietnam-China war from the late 1970s, and the whole place went silent.

Why? It’s a good life lesson, but it’s a weird topic while getting your haircut anywhere, let alone a Vietnamese salon.

Agreed, but I have known her for 11 years. We were talking about different wars, and I was like "hey Vietnam had that war with China in the late 1970s. What was that like?" And the place goes SILENT.

My buffoonery actually reminds me of Race Bannon's joke last year from the thread where we envisioned Softy broadcasting live from a homeless camp.

"Hey pal, thanks for hopping on. So, how long have you been homeless?"

Enough about the awkward story telling. We want to know if she loved you long tim.
