Is this a Halloween thing or a permanent thing? I can probably use post-breakup makeover as an excuse for the hair color, but what can I say for the eyes? I have the eyecolor of an albino bunny.

I wouldn't even choose to have hair the color of candy floss in the first place.

Pink. It's all pink.

My hair is pristine and un-dyed (I think), and I will not let any harmful chemicals touch it.

That, and I don't want to dye my eyebrows.

then shave it off

Ew! No! Not when naturally thick eyebrows are finally trending.

what??

I will not shave my eyebrows like some punk or a grandmother who's having a hard time fitting in with the old rich.

I meant you should shave your head too not just your eyebrows but why is that a punk thing? do eyebrows actually matter?

Yes, they do. They frame your face. It sends a message that you're put together and so is your life.

I thought bangs framed the face and these rules are stupid how people look doesn't mean anything about their life

Those rules exist even in nature. Even animals instinctively judge each other by appearances, and so do people.

okay but it doesn't mean anything? some idiot told me I look homeless but I'm not I pay rent by myself

I suppose there are advantages to looking homeless. But you can partly influence how your day goes by dressing for it.

okay so what will pink hair and eyes do to your day

It makes me look soft and squishy and cute. People will try to touch me. They will think that it's okay.

ah

[This is a problem he can identify with.]

black thrift store hoodies with holes and a slouch

dark dark red lipstick

I don't own any of those things. I do own a beret. I could try to slouch. Maybe I'll wear shades.

I don't think a beret will help

[...after a few minutes, she'll get an email letting her know that she's received a $40 gift card to Hot Topic.]

[ give her a few minutes and he'll get a wordless reply and that gift card back. ]

I don't need to look edgy

And I am not a teenager who buys her clothes from the mall.

they have an online store

[ it takes a while for her to reply ]

I'll consider it.

do you want it back

Keep it. I can buy my own clothes.

do you know anyone who shops there because I don't think I do

[WHAT IS HE GOING TO DO WITH THIS...]

No. My [nonexistent] friends have good taste.

Why did you even have the gift card in the first place?
