new thread
I should probably re-title this thread, "Longhaired Plumber's Crack", because the braided portion of my hair is not as easy to see in the mirror as my pants falling down...
For those members of MLHH who are from non-English speaking countries, the term "plumber's crack" might not be a familiar one. I don't know if it's used in the UK or Australia or New Zealand; but here in the USA (and probably also in Canada), it's a familiar term that is part-derogatory / part-humor.
Just imagine an over-weight plumber coming in to fix the pipes underneath your bathroom or kitchen sink, and every time he bends over too far, his pants slide down off his hips, revealing too much of his butt-crack -- not a pleasant image, but great inspiration for many a good joke!
In my case, I am neither as talented nor as handy as a plumber; but have a definite "plumber's crack", as you can clearly see (in spite of the pic being a bit blurry) -- only in my situation, I have a HAIRY plumber's crack!
Next week my partner said he would take a better pic of the braided half-tail (only minus the plumber's crack - LOL)....

I recently told Scott that his photo of his dandruff covered keyboard was one of the grossest hair related photos this forum had seen......I revise that statement...
Your "Butt-crack" expose' and documentary definitely takes the lead !! Ha !
"....I have a HAIRY plumber's crack!..."
MUCH more information than we need, Ken !!
Normally, I close my posts with "Thanks for Sharing"....however, in this case.....???

Hey Walter,
What can I say, other than I felt in a VERY mischievous mood yesterday!
Believe it or not, it all started with me trying to take a pic of my braided half-tail, -- honestly, that was my original intention... but then every time my pants started slipping South, and then it even showed up in that photo, it "cracked" me up (yes, pun intended)!
Hey, at least now people will believe me when I say my hair is approaching butt-length!
- Ken
"...hair is approaching butt-length!..."
Don't try to best Scott. Remember, his is long enough to get it in there when he wipes.

Been there, done that, but only once or twice. I just make sure to keep it in front, which solves the problem.
It gets stuck there when showering. To remedy this, I split it so it hangs on either side, but not in the middle.

That's why I always use a good belt!!!
Lol :)
Looking forword to the new pictures.
What a great way to end my day - I'll probably get nightmares from this(^_^') Thanks!

Hi Ken,
Now I have to admit never seeing this subject posted here so its an original!LOL.It was fun to see what the image was referred to in other counties.At least I now know the US isn't the only nation blessed with Plumber's Crack:)Catch you later my friend.

Now we know where to insert coin to begin C&W dance lessons. :-)
- Oren
Just think of it this way, now you can charge plumber's rates for Dance Lessons. And Oren's coin slot can also be adapted for sliding the credit cards :-).
At least you didn't have to call it half-assed braided as my feeble attempts of giving mine a braid have been. I guess it requires lots of practice, but I just feel completely uncoordinated when I try.
But when the hair clogs the shower I'll know exactly who I'll call.

Well, in spite of definitely embarrASSing myself by posting that pic, I loved reading all of your clever wise-CRACKS in your replies -- even if it did make my formerly prim & proper reputation fall a little BEHIND...
Oren's idea of putting a coin in the "slot" for C&W dance lessons is a definite winner -- although not many dance folks I know would probably ever want to pay up (LOL).... I mean, with a coin slot that looks like that, I'm sure they'd expect lessons for free!
And I definitely loved reading what "plumber's crack" is called in other countries, although I have NO idea of how to pronounce the Dutch or Swedish version (LOL)!!
Thanks again, guys, I loved your responses!
