Hey guys,
How strong is maximum strength hair gel? (I'm being tracked, so I can't give out any more details about what it's for or anything like that.
Yup...they are EVERYWHERE.....
Odd question - try it to see if it works in the circumstances you seem reluctant to describe. No one can guess what you want it for.
---------------------
Hmmmmmm, you are being tracked?Hopefully your not a fugitive of justice.Yikes!lol

I would suggest (in a moment of not being tracked) to try some gel and see. (I can't give-out and more details about what.) Sorry. Must leave. Gotta run. Currently being tracked by a robot.! :-0
I am somewhat new here but can someone explain what this person is talking about. ;)
I've seen it hold up mohawks over a foot long, whatever you need
It for it'll probably do the job.
To everyone else: the jokes are rather unnecessary and distasteful. Posting attention to this board it's not too hard to know what he's talking about, so lay off.

Oh come on lighten up as we were only having fun with him:)Geeezz
Normally I'm too serious anyway so now I try and have a little fun
and get called for it.Oh well do have a nice day and keep smiling:)

Proven fact, (or so I've read.) It is far easier to smile than frown. Takes less muscles, something like that.
I wish EVERYONE here at the MLHH at fabulous day!

(If it shows up, that's me above at the moment.) LOL

I get a value of maybe a gram of hair weight per square centimeter of scalp area for a mohawk over a foot long. I had no idea that gel had that much holding power. (I never used it when I grew out my hair.) Hindsight is 20/20 and I almost certainly would have used it during the early growing out process, had I been aware of it.

I have to disagree with you, Jarvis.
1) Humour IS necessary; it plays a vital role in conversation (whether online or face-to-face) as it lowers tension, creates a friendly atmosphere and reduces stress. Stress is a huge killer and humour is one of the best ways of dealing with it (see link below).
2) Humour is only "distasteful" if it is tasteless, thoughtless or hurtful. The humour posted in this thread was clearly none of those things. It was patently warm, friendly and light-hearted - much as one would wink to an old acquaintance.
There would be far less violence and conflict in this world if we all learned to take a bit of friendly banter on the chin and laugh instead of easily taking offence where none was intended.

The link!!!! One of these days I'll forget to breathe! :)
humor as stress relief
Thank you Damon as you put it in better perspective than I myself did.My
comments were not meant to be taken that seriously as I felt it was a fun
response to the users comment about being tracked.Certainly I did not say it
with malice.Some days you just gotta look for an opportunity to get a laugh
out of life otherwise you'll let it destroy you.All have a cheerful day :)

Hi Damon,
Here in the States, we spell the word: "humor", rather than humour... Same with color VS colour, favor VS favour, and probably several other words I can't remember (or is it spelled, "remembour?" - LOL)....
I'm NOT saying that we Americans are necessarily the "correct" spellers here (LOL, everybody knows that we're notoriously lazy!); but what I am saying is... Since you Brits are the ones who first invented this crazy language (and its even crazier "rules" on spelling), why add any unnecessary vowels that probably aren't even pronounced? (or, is it spelled, "pronunced?" - LOL)!

Hi Ken,
I'm a Canadian now living in the UK. We had both spellings in our Canadian school books, the British spelling in the main text and the American version asterisked in a footnote. But in everyday life I grew up *using* and *pronouncing* words the American way: aluminum (instead of aluminium), tomayto (instead of tomarto), bath (instead of barth), washroom (instead of toilets), parking lot (instead of car park), etc. - and I deliberately still use and pronounce them that way just to piss off all my mates here in the UK. I just LOVE winding them up! :)
But yeah, all those extra vowels just give me a headache. I've now decided to do without them altogether - and from now on I'm gonna write like this ...
Wrtng lk ths s mch smplr. Jst hp ppl cn ndrstnd wht 'm syng! :)

FRIENDS, I am a well educated Amerian and I cannot spell, and I never thought it was important if I got my meaning across. An aunt hasseled me all my life, and I credit her with my lack of concern.
But Brit playrite, playwright, offered the best argument for simplifiee spelling.
Too bad he did not get a good hearing and effectivbe response. What GBS could not accomplish, however TXTing will likely achieve.

As I read this I have to wonder if the original poster is
being monitored by parents who are pitching a fit about how
neat (or not neat) his hair is and what he is doing on line?
When I first read this post I wondered what it was about
but then a day or so later it dawned on me.......it was
probably his parents that are on his case about his hair.
After all if I had a dime for every guy who got hassled by
parents for how their hair was i'd be a bloody millionaire. I started growing my hair in 1964 and that problem still lingers
in 2012.
So instead of thinking FBI/CIA/etc. for being tracked think
much closer to home and parental units.
If my school decides to do a search about this topic, then I will be in deep trouble. Not because of my handle, but because they'll figure out the trick and be able to see through it.

Hi .mkl,
That must be some school that would put you into trouble just because
you posted questions about your hair but then I don't know your situation.
With that said I hope you didn't take our friendly jabs too seriously as they
weren't meant to make fun of you.Anyway good luck with the gel as I hope
it works out for you.Cheers

If your school decides to do a search about "this topic", it would mean they already suspect the truth and the game is already up. It would mean they have already figured out the "trick" and seen through it. Why else would they do a search about this topic?
If you are simply worried about the school tracking the sites you have visited (rather than already suspecting this specific topic), remember to delete your internet history before you log off the computer.
If the school computers are set up to not allow that, make sure to use a friend's computer that is not part of the school network whenever you want to visit a site that you would prefer to keep private.

On a serious note I would point out there are schools/employers/etc. who have taken major steps to
snoop on their students/employees to see what they are
going on line. There are also a number of cases
now where schools and employers are demanding that students/
employees disclose their passwords for facebook and other
social media. Thie whole area is now being litigated and
who knows where it will end up. As always the laws on this
many years behind the technology. it could take many yaers
and many court verdicts to sort all this out.
Also there are schools that prohibit their students from
using facebook, even after school and off school property.
Also I would point out there now insurance companies
looking at Twitter/Facebook posts and charging higher
premiums for those users (because these users post entirely
too much information like home address/phone number/
when they won't be home/etc.) Everything a prospective
burglar would love to know.
The internet is a fantastic tool but think long and hard
before posting. Do you really want to tell the world your
home address/phone number or post that photo of yourself
drinking that keg of beer when you're only 14? Remember
employers will search the web looking for dirt on you.
And you may not post it but a friend/relative might.
[**** A warning here: that photo you are going to upload from
your smart phone tomorrow? It contains GPS coordinates that tells someone your exact location.*****]
Welcome to 2012 and the brave new world of technology.
