Heading home from work at the end of what was an especially hard Monday, a junior lawyer has received another kick in the guts after seeing just how much his hair loss has progressed by spying himself briefly in on a bus’ CCTV monitor.
Nathan Singh, of North Betoota, said he was shocked at first by how thin he was on top but wasn’t at all surprised.
“I typically wear a hat leaving work just in case someone from the office is on my bus, I don’t want them to recognise me and feel obligated to have a chat,” said the 31-year-old.
“But today I didn’t bring one because I am an idiot. Anyway, that’s beside the point. What the point is – is that I just saw myself on the bus security monitor thing and it really took my breath away,”
“Is that what I look like from behind? I’m not ready to shave my head. Why did this happen to me? I’ve got no family history,”
He stopped himself.
“No, I don’t care. Fuck it.”
Speaking candidly to our reporter as the G34 from the Old City District wound it’s way down the hill, across the mighty Diamantina and up to the northern suburbs, Singh admitted that he was just tired and a bit emotional.
“And seeing that didn’t help,” he said.
“Sometimes you just need these reality checks from time to time,”
“At least I’m not a Liverpool fan. Get a real goalie, you fucking losers!”
More to come.
