A Tale of Two Mullets: Luke Scott vs. Evan Longoria. A self-indulgent exploration by me.

Earlier, the delightful @KenTremendous tweeted: When Luke Scott gets a haircut, he walks into his barbershop and says, “Give me ‘The Mistake.’”

I text this to my friend, noted Rays fan, prompting an insightful debate.

Buddy: The only difference in reception between what he and Longoria do with their hair is California cool and middle Florida, huh?

Me: That’s the general consensus, but I personally hate Longo’s hair. I dig California long hair, but it’s, like, not quite right. Maybe he tells Florida barbers he wants it long, but they only know how to do The Mistake?

Buddy: “I want a three razor on the sides and the Planned Parenthood scrambler on the top.”

Me: You just made me chortle. #CalmDownItsASynonymForLaugh

My brother also pointed out, when asked why Longo would subject us to this haircut:

Because he’s the kind of guy who’s had a Camaro and an assault rifle stolen from him in the last 6 months.

And so on. And, YES, I use hashtags in personal texts for humorous effect.

And, yes, I may have had a choice between a picture that better illustrated Luke Scott’s truly awful hair and a totally goofy action shot. I obvi opted for the latter.

The point is, around 1:30 a.m. Eastern Standard Time, Thursday morning, we broke baseball sociology right open. #YupThatsWhatHappened

Durant backpack + Westbrook Urkel glasses = cutest after school/playoff presser ever.

How to look like Malcolm X: “Fierce politics, but ever fiercer style”

• “His agenda divided the country, but there’s one there we’re all unanimous about: He had a serious look that we all love.”
• “It’s important to take yourself look serious so others will take you seriously.”
• “If I saw a man wearing these [glasses], I would be head over heels.”
• “We’re definitely seeing a Renaissance of ties and tie clips on our men. I think we can thank ‘Mad Men,’ but the originator was Malcolm X.”
• “So enough politics. Let’s get down to playing dress-up.”
• “So I think I’m ready for a political rally or to give some provocative speech.”

Really, I could have transcribed the video in its entirety. It’s all gold.

I was also considering being Richie for Halloween since I have the exact headband. I’m trying to convince my straight-haired, straight-faced friend to be Margot. Obviously, I’d have to be a post-suicide-attempt Richie.

kgtl:

I should definitely go as Richie Tenenbaum for Halloween. All I need to add to how I currently look is the headband.

I really hope I’m not subconsciously trying to do the same thing as Richie with that look.
