Daily Weird #34 A hairy situation...

David Davis, better known as “Fro Dude”, was sitting in the barber chair in Stamford, Connecticut, minding his own business when a suspicious character approached. Fro Dude knew this guy was up to no good when he saw the man was wearing a cloak. Cloaks are only worn by bad guys. Fro knew this and jumped into action.

He raised up out of his chair, slashed the bad guy across the back and then ran. Police believed he ran because he knew he shouldn’t have slashed the bad man in the cloak, but I believe he ran to find an appropriate place to change into his super-hero outfit. There are no telephone booths anymore, and he couldn't just go running around slashing people without a cape and underwear placed properly on the outside of his clothing.

Due to the lack of hero gear, Mr. Davis was arrested and brought to jail on charges of assault. The matter would have ended there if not for the untimeliness of this encounter.

It seems that when he ran, his barber was only half way finished with his hair. So, half of his hair was in a braid, and half of his hair was all Einstein-ed out. This made for a really, really, really interesting mug shot. This also made for some pondering on my part.

As I pondered, I thought. It happens that way sometimes. Pondering usually turns in to eating chocolate, but not today. Today there was thought. This thought in particular...Was there anyone else out there who had a mug shot worthy of a Daily Weird? I can be lazy, and today, being a no chocolate day, is no exception. I did a little research and added a few more “lovelies” creating a Daily Weird full of a collection of winning mug shots.

First up, we have Marcus. T. Bailey who thought it would be a great idea to sell drugs while getting his hair done. Again, he was hauled away before the barber could finish. These guys really need to start getting their hair done at jail. Do jails have barbers??

Next we have David Jonathan Winkelman. Don’t let the three names confuse you, he wasn’t an assassin. He was just a regular guy who thought a radio station joke that promised a six figure prize to anyone tattooing their call letters onto their own forehead was real. A tattoo and red face later, he realized he had been had. Those dang ol' disc jockeys with their wily ways. Months, maybe years later, with the tattoo still in place, Mr. Winkelman (seriously, that's his name) failed to appear in court for a misdemeanor charge …. and BAM his ugly mug is all over the internet where he cannot hide from his moment of stupidity.

Then there’s “Silver Man” who, although, apparently already in his hero outfit, was still arrested by police. Our men in blue need to start working together with these fighters of crime. This is why people are asking, “Where are all the heroes? Silver heroes in particular." Don't cry Silver Man... we believe in you!

Last, but certainly not least, I found this gentleman. I did not find his name, and am not sure I would repeat it to you if I did. Poor thing. Can you imagine? His girlfriend probably told him he’d get lucky if he dressed up like this for her. He did NOT get lucky.(I'm assuming this, but I think I'm pretty safe to do so) The only thing worse than this, is if he would have gotten pulled over and hauled to jail while wearing a Mankini.

So, in conclusion, the moral of our Daily Weird is… wait a second. I never have a moral. This isn’t that kind of hub.

Go. Dress up. Have fun. Wear anything you want, tattoo anywhere you want. Just don't get thrown in jail until your hair cut is finished or you've changed out of that embarrassing binkini! Hey, is that a moral? Dangit.
