Nothing.  Pick your hair style, folks.  With all the people adding silly colors to their hair, how are dreads any big deal?  You want to spend the time to do them, at least do them well.  That, of course, is an admonition that could cross all social lines.

I have always taken very good care of mine. I wash them frequently. And until recently, I have always kept them ripped, er, pulled apart and neat and tidy.

Lately, I have stopped caring and stopped ripping them apart at the roots. I have tons of congos, locks that have grown out together with hydra ends. I have this "Crazed Lord of the Forest" look going on right now, which I have become quite fond of. Even my mustach has locked up.

And I am sorry for all my sound and fury, but this is one thing, one of the very few things, that I take seriously. I can't stand that the pop culture movement has adopted locks, and the abominations coming out of salons now, synth locks, dread perms, etc. All these people walking around with Lee Press On Locks, stupid, vacous, insipid, just bugs me. They are going for a look... Some sort of weird industrial grunge rock something or other sort of look. Or when locks are put on the stereotypical villian, like the White Witch. Well, for lack of a better way of explaining it in more delicate words, when people do stuff like this it really offends me. It's like somebody coming in and pissing on the altar of a church or something or somebody burning a sacred book. And I can't bloody stand it when some snotty faced little twit half my age comes up and asks which salon I had my locks done in or asks if I am trying to make my self look younger by having locks like "all of the rest of the kids" and then laughing in the most insipid way you could imagine. I grow tired of all the idiots that have embraced lock culture that have spread the most vile untruths you could imagine as this vast collection of idiots tries to make themselves look cool, and all of the lies they spread, which only further causes bad stereotypes of locks in general. Like people saying that you must start locks with toothpaste or peanut butter, or that if you have locks, you can never wash your hair. Or that people with locks are somehow dirty and have lice, and that dreadlocks are actually lice nests, or any number of lies out there. Because there are all these ignorant twits out there spreading these untruths, and they don't wash their hair, and become filthy and nasty, people like me are made to suffer for something that we hold dear.

I am sorry for all my ranting, but the fact that Disney has once again made quite a statement is upsetting to me in a sort of "Song of the South" sort of way. I am really quite offended. Pissed. Angry. I don't expect people to understand... A lot of folks couldn't seem to understand why so many people were offended by "Song of the South" either. But some things just rub folks wrong.

:angry: People should be more respectful :angry:
