      9 times out of 10, I get my hair cut just for the wash / head massage-y.

      I went to a random cosmetology school to get my hair cut a couple weeks ago. They had massage chairs I could lounge in while I got my hair shampooed. It was a revelation. I will be doing this again.

      Wait.
      Wat.
      Hol' up.

      Massage chair.
      Plus hair shampoo.

      I need this in my life.

        The Unicorn Frappucino is mango-based with a sweet-and-sour syrup and sweet and sour dust on top of the whipped cream. I am pleased to report that it is tasty! And apparently only available for five days.

          I tried it as well. Pretty damn good, I'd say.

          This may or may not change in the future.

            I wanted to try it but I don't like mango.

              I am with @Catsmeow here. Mango is just not my thing.

                  I'm very glad I looked that thing up online before buying, because I would have been Displeased if I hadn't known beforehand that the unicorn was caffeine-free.

                  Still totally trying it, of course.

                    Taking a younger friend to a Korean BBQ place for the first time and informing them that they have to pour my Soju with both hands and look away when I am drinking otherwise they'll be breaching ancient rites of Korean restaurant etiquette. I swear if you've never done this you've got to try it. Endlessly entertaining.

                      First tier!
                      My idiot son just scored top tier in a nationwide combined prize examination for maths, Chinese, and English.

                      Maybe he's not quite the idiot I thought he was….

                        Seriously though, congrats to your son.

                          Saturday my son makes me proud and on Monday I get the fruits of being a (bush league) patron of the arts.

                          This is my third crowd-funding backing on Modian (a sort of Chinese Kickstarter but for creative projects only) and my first that's directly related to the arts. So far I've not even been mildly disappointed by the projects I've backed, but this one blew me away with its professional production. (The music is good too but probably not to anybody's tastes here.)

                            The art placards at the bottom are REALLY nice.

                              @Bobotron Indeed. Each is the title of one of the songs, has a work of art seemingly related to the song, and even has the title in English (in very small type).

                                  So, you know, we've been going through this spate lately on these forums where people are "but that's a sucky idea and you should be ashamed of having it" kind of responses for people looking for input.

                                  I'm just going to leave this here, because it's awesome:

                                  Next time you're afraid to share ideas, remember someone once said in a meeting: Let's make a film with a tornado full of sharks.

                                    My office just went to the bar during office hours to drink and talk about who they're shipping in what shows.

                                          @Pandora Mostly it's random anime characters than I've never heard of. They were also making fun of a recent session at a conference about fanfic that they said didn't even touch on the basics, which I understand, one of my coworkers had been sorting a fanfic zine collection that had been donated recently, so they're particularly invested in the area. Libraries be weird, yo.

                                            For the first time in 18 years I have had two blocks of time where I am the only human in my house. I have been able to get the most essential part of decluttering/purging of unused belongings in huge chunks rather than small progress per month almost done.

                                            I am a (people loving and social) introvert homebody with 4 kids and a work at home spouse (who's been out of town on biz all week). It is so wonderful to finally have my truly-alone-and-at-home energy recharging for the first time in sooooo very long!!
