Dull Men's Club

A facsimile of the popular Facebook group of the same name, but in no way affiliated.

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

**6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an "Africa, by Toto" option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.

I booted up my Great Clips app and found that I was signed out for some reason. I went to sign in and couldn't remember my sign in info. Did I use my Yahoo email address? Was my account through Google? I checked the site via Chrome to see if login info auto populated. No such luck. I checked my raw text note with a bunch of login users and passwords for not sensitive stuff to see if I put it in there. Nope. I checked to see if I could just check in for my haircut without logging in. I could have, but I'd have to give them my phone number and they'd text me spam, plus I'd have to tell them in person what I wanted instead of them telling me what I got last time and asking if that's what I wanted again today. (Of course. I have gotten the same haircut for ten years.)

So I put in my Yahoo email and hit "forgot password" and reset it. I got logged in and it had my correct info, and I put my login info into that note I keep. I checked in online and sipped on some coffee and surfed Lemmy while waiting.

I went in, had a great haircut, and learned about some kind of membership card or something. Idk I wasn't really listening because I'm moving to a new town tomorrow and idk if I'll have a Great Clips near me there. I saw a Sport Clips near the new house, but my general impression is that it's like the Hooters of haircuts and I don't really want to pay more for a haircut just to have a little bit of flirting thrown my way. Am I way off or is that about right? Because even my basic no-frills haircut at Great Clips is $21 before tip these days, so maybe it wouldn't be so bad to have to find a new place.

Haircut is 2 on the back and sides, medium cut on top. I use a kind of messy look paste to style minimally coming out of the shower. Dull, but tidy.

I bought a Wahl clipper over ten years ago for about $20. My wife cuts my hair, so I get to flirt with the stylist for free.

My wife offered to cut my hair. I told her no. She's a very clumsy person lol. I also have a Wahl clipper, but it's for trimming my beard.
