Gee, thanks.

I had finished my grocery shopping this afternoon and pushed my cart into the center of the aisle of parked cars. There was a pretty normal looking man loitering around there, waiting for me to finish with it.
He grabbed the cart and looked at me for a minute and then said, “Looking at you, I realized that I really need a haircut.”
What the HELL does that mean?

I think he just meant that your hair is short.

You look so sleek and shiny and he realized that he wants to be like you. It was a badly put compliment.

Who cares, he’s probably just an old nutter. very few people can pull of a short do like yours cause its all about the face. And you have adorable features. Yay for freckles from a fellow redhead, paled skinned lass. Bethany

He has hair envy. He obviously took one look at you and realised his poor excuse for a hair cut just didn’t cut it. It’s definitely a compliment
Or he’s a nutter.

That is damn funny. I think everyone is right - he is envious of your fabulous hair.
September 27th, 2005 at 8:20 am
Bwaaahhhhh. What a wonker! Means your hair looks great, obvs.

Weird. You should’ve come back with “Looking at you, I realize that I REALLY need to become a lesbian.” I agree that he’s just jealous of you hair. Isn’t everyone?

weirdo.
you have great hair.

Is that why we haven’t been seeing that many posts from you? You’ve been busy talking to weirdos in the grocery parking lot?
I think it means he’s insane.
And he thinks if he gets a haircut, you would go out with him. You should’ve sneezed on the cart handle.

His ambiguity is his charm.

I hate random people talking to me. I probably would have cried.

Heh, this sounds like the sort of ting that happens as the store in Central Square. I was in there a few weeks ago and got the creepy feeling like something weird was about to happen. It didn’t, but I felt uncomfortable.
Like the others said, you looked great and this made him feel bad about himself needing better grooming. (Trust me, I’m gay. LOL)

When in doubt, always take these things as a compliment.
September 27th, 2005 at 7:18 pm
I would have to say ditto on all the looking fabulous comments.
Hmmm…what if his comment meant nothing. What if his saying you reminded him that he needed a haircut was the equivalent of a normal person saying (for no particular reason) “Your hair is short.” Well DUH!!!
September 27th, 2005 at 8:52 pm
Weirdo. People say the strangest things.
September 28th, 2005 at 3:27 pm
Well, I think he meant he needs to spiff up a bit because obviously all the human race are becoming cute knitters. I personally would have maised (spelling- spell check is not happy with that attempt)his ass and ran like a freaking out psychopath.
Ok, that was extreme, but it was a compliment I am sure. But practice up on your fast comebacks for this sort of situation. Or carry your knitting needles like weapons!

Your hair looked so fabulous, it SHAMED HIM into realizing he needed to do something about his own craplicious appearance
September 30th, 2005 at 2:14 pm
Means he’s got the case of crazies! Or he sees how perfectly coifed your hairdo is and feels like his shaggy mop needs a cut.

So lovely.
