It's Moe Tucker! :D

they have money for hair transplants.

I guess they can look at their fathers and see if they were follically challenged.


Ha ha, my friends with bald dads have latched onto the utterly bollocks wive's tale that baldness is passed down through your mother's side. Thats utter bollocks of course, but it obviously makes them feel better.

balkd people ar efunny

i don't know about passing baldness... your friends can wear fancy wigs later! or get a combover.

Ah, the classic history teacher comb-over look. Brilliant. (Must go with a grey tie and beige courdroy trousers)

i had a latin teacher who looked like this when the wind came out of the wrong (or right, according to his students) direction:

HA HA HA! Thats awesome, LOVE the picture too.

I'd rep you if I could.

yeah it was funny... he looked like he had some kind of antenna. really not a lucky man when it comes to looks: his skin tone (pink) clashed with his hair color and he had an awful body odor. i actually got sick after sitting in frotn of him for two hours (exam). glad those days are over!

Yeah. I intend to bring some MUCH needed style to the teaching profession.

you're going to be a teacher?

Yeah I hope so. I'm going to spend a good few years after uni working as an artist, whatever that may entail, but yeah, I intend to teach eventually. But 16-18 year olds at college, becuase I love young people but HATE children.

cool! i'm studying illustration right now but i'd love to teach at one of these academies here later (the kind of art school kids can take in the weekend, for three hours) i already teach private drawing classes to a kid living in my neighbourhood. it's fun.

Does sound fun, but as I said, I don't 'do' kids. Where do you live anyway, aren't you a mainland European of some description?

i live in antwerp, belgium. mainland europe indeed!

this kid isn't really a kid btw, he's fourteen. he doesn't want to go to one of these academies for some reason so his parents pay me a ridiculous amount of money to teach him. you won't hear me complain!

No it does sound like a cushty deal indeed! You speak immaculate English by the way, yet all Belgians do i suppose. My grandparents lived in Belgium for a bit, but hated it because they lived in a really snooty area where the residents often refused to speak English.

thanks! we start learning english at the age of fourteen. most belgians speak at least one extra language, especially in flanders, simply because no one else in the world actually speaks dutch. an english person can get away with knowing only one language, we'd be screwed.

also, belgium has three official languages, it would be stupid to know only one :P

and indeed, it depends on where you are... i love the cities but the countryside is bleeergh. there's absolutely NOTHING there and most people living there aren't that clever.

one funny thing about flanders is that our dialects are so different that we can't understand each other when speaking them. my stepmother's family lives by the coast, which is a two-hour ride from here, and i don't understand a word of what they say.

It hammer's home my own ignorance when speaking to people from other European countries. I don't speak a WORD of another language, and sadly I don't need too on these shores. In my defence, there is no compulsary sylabus of languages in English schools whatsoever.

that's too bad... well language education here is getting bad too, i learnt most of my english and french from actually speaking it. i've been taught german classes for almost four years, but never used german so i don't speak it. same with spanish (i took classes for two years and learned to speak more in one week in barcelona).

so just get your ass in france and stay there for a few months. you'll learn ;-)
