Last week I got my hair cut, and not a single person said anything.  Not even on the Internet.

Why not?  Because I’m not Jennifer Lawrence.  When you think of JLaw, you probably picture this:

But after a session that I’m assuming probably took five times longer than mine, now she’s rocking something that for some reason really freaked out a lot of people, and led others to rush to her defense.  Check it out:

I certainly am a fan of JLaw’s longer hair, but I am nearly as into this look.  It’s fun!  She’s 23!  I wouldn’t tell her to keep it forever, but as a phase to rock for a little while, I definitely like it.  The few people I talked to about it so far — all girls — have gone through the exact same arc of reaction.  First, they hate it.  Then it’s kind of okay.  Then, “You know, I actually do think it’s cool.”

How could it be even cooler?  When she’s rocking Google Glass:

So to anyone who has a problem, first of all, find a hobby.  Second, it’s hair!  It grows back!  I celebrate that fact about half the time I get mine cut.  When the moment comes that the woman I always go to asks about what to do with my sideburns, there’s frequently a miscommunication in the phrasing of her question and the phrasing of my answer, leading to them sometimes getting chopped off.  Whatevs.  A week later you’d never know.

In six months no one will remember the JLaw pixie cut was even a thing.  Let’s have fun with it now!

Also, let’s get excited for her future appearance in a remake of East of Eden.  It’s kind of a long book, so if you’ve never read it, consider this your push to get going.
