Shiny San Francisco Stories: Becoming a cliche

[kellinator]

So my first full day in San Francisco, I was on Haight St. (motherfucking Haight-Ashbury!! motherfucker!!) feeling very cool when suddenly what the rest of y'all already knew hit me like a pillowcase full of bricks.

"I'm a boring person who dyed my hair purple so I would fit in out here!! Oh my gosh!! I'm a cliche!!"

gamgee's response was something along the lines of "Yes, we all knew that, but if we had said it it would have sounded mean."

I thought it was sadder that you want to dye your hair purple, but cannot allow yourself to do that in ATL, you had to wait until vacation.

Dye it!

Yes. Exactly. I have always wanted to dye my hair purple and have
never done it. So there. I am even more pathetic than you. Thbbpt. :P

Keep encouraging me, and I'll throw in a bottle of bleach so the color will actually last longer than a week.

Consider yourself encouraged. Please.

Now I'm becoming very tempted to at least go Scully red... the problem with that is, I can't wear my pink lipsticks. And I like my pink lipsticks!!

actually, the right shade of pink can look gorgeous with red hair. But I advise you to invest in a tube of deep, slutty red so you can work the whole redheaded sexpot look.
