It's Earth Day, Pimp Your Dreads


Earth Day comes but once a year and brings with it an overwhelming amount of pressure to make a show of caring about the environment. The thing is, I don't. Mime my mom and call it selfish between wringing your hands and yelling about "the fate of your grandchildren, oh god!" but yeah, it won't sway me. By the time the earth is going down in a great ball of flames, I'll be long dead and, if my life goes as planned, I won't have any progeny to suffer the consequences of the water I waste and motors I leave running.

But like I said, it's Earth Day and I should at least look like I give a damn. For decency's sake and whatnot. So here's my plan: dreads. It's foolproof because everyone knows you don't have dreadlocks unless you're a full blown hippie with earth hugging tendencies the likes of which normal humans can barely comprehend. I found some instructions here and I've already gone weeks without washing my hair, so I'm basically half way there. Looks good, right?
