Twice a week, you have to shake a few dozen refrigerator magnets out of your hair.
The fridge magnets would be annoying, but think how easy it would be to ride your children on your shoulders now that they have a handle with which to steer.

My kids used my hair to stay on my shoulders… sometimes my ears… I told them both, “If you start to fall, grab anything but my eyes”

“Used to”? Does that mean you no longer have any hair to grab?

“Railroad spike guy” (Phineas Gage) was famous. He should have gotten royalties for all of the neuroscience advancements that came from him. I had a patient who put a nail through his head with a nailgun. He didn’t know it – it ricocheted off the surface he was nailing and went through his cheek, leaving a tiny mark. (It was a 16D or 20D, I forgot which.) I think it was the headaches that finally brought him in a few weeks later. The x-ray was pretty cool. I don’t know if he showed it around at parties since you couldn’t see the nail from the outside.
