SL/Encounters in Welcome Area pt. 16/Hair Loss

Soy was admiring the guy's hat. It didn't look like a regular cowboy hat, it looked more like a Mexican gunfighter's hat. "I will buy that from you for $20L," he said.
/
Before he had a chance to put it on, though, he was handed a hat by someone else, and when Soy wore it, it turned out to be pink! Adding insult to injury, it didn't really sit on his head right; more like it hovered over his head--like a UFO.
"Or a dipping tray," someone laughed. "Fill the bottom part with chips, the top part becomes dipp-able."
"Yay! Someone used the word dipp-able in front of me" Soy said dryly.
As it turns out, it was the 53,777th utterance of the word 'dipp-able' in the history of the English and non-English world. Soy was so pleased he got himself a beer.
"Is this how you wear it?" he asked, once he got the beer. When no one laughed, he said, "I'm preparing to get drunk, but I'm not sure on how to make it happen."
Someone said, "Wear it between your lips."
"Ahhh," Soy said. Then he said "arrrggghhhhhhhhh" when he couldn't stand holding it between his lips any longer.
The worst part was when Soy removed the hat (or the UFO)...and the beer bottle: He discovered he had no hair left, or at least none that mattered: the bushy part was gone.
"My essence is missing," Soy alased.
All wasn't lost, though. He spotted a lass who had just turned her back on a non-responding boyfriend and was Editing Her Appearance.
"Ma'am, I hate to bother you, but look," said Soy, "this is kind of an emergency. That hair you're wearing. Do you need all of it?" Soy took a huge gamble that she wouldn't disappear.
"A handful is all I'm asking for," Soy pleaded when she didn't respond.
Ma'am was too involved in Editing her Appearance to care about what Soy was yammering about. Until then, there had been no practical reason for Soy to have sheep sheers in his Inventory.
"Good thing I save everything," he remarked.

SL/Natural Selection

The evolution of Milo is not only involving his hair style--which I told him today resembles more and more Hollywood movie mogul Robert Evans'-- but also more subtler things like his height, and lips. Indeed, Milo handed me a photo of his real life self today and announced his intentions of turning himself into himself. Milo wants the world to know he is preparing to become Milo.

Overheard...

Shouted at outdoor Event:
"Will the person I was making love to under the canopy please report to the Information kiosk, center sim?"

Amongst ex-zealots:
"My religion forbade me from eating with my lips."

Drag racing for the masses:
"When the tires smoke you can get a wonderful buzz."

Worker at SeXpo:
"I have perky computers."

Branded:
"I still have remnants of last night's slap mark on my face."

Play Locally:
"Instead of an Englishman saying it, I want a redneck to say 'You're a Wanker.'"

SL/I say this as a straight man

My next trick is to invent a bong so realistic it looks like a penis is growing where the lips usually go.
Men will have a choice: to not smoke, or take the best bong hit ever.
Normal men will likely take the hit.
It will be fun watching their lips form around a penis (for the first time).
