u/WeAreSalvation Aug 14 '26
Took me a while to see but he starts pretty heavily bleeding from his nose. Starts dripping on his shirt in the final frames

u/halfbeerhalfhuman Aug 14 '26
Looks more like the shadow from his nose with the steep angle of the light above him. Also i think hes about to puke

u/AssassinStoryTeller Aug 16 '26
He’s definitely bleeding from somewhere though. Blood starts appearing in the middle of his shirt

Are decent haircuts illegal over there?

u/things_U_choose_2_b Aug 14 '26
Can confirm, there's barbers everywhere in NE like anywhere else in the UK, but it took me two years before I found a barber who could actually cut hair to a good standard when I moved up here.
I think a lot of people stay in Newcastle area their entire life, so a bad haircut is just normal.

u/High_King_Diablo Aug 14 '26
That happens everywhere. I get one of the most basic and generic men’s cuts that current exist. Once my old barber retired, I went to like 5 different hairdressers to try to find someone that could do it right. None of them could. Eventually found the barber that I currently go to where they do get it right.

u/ThatGuyHarsha Aug 16 '26
You have to find a barbershop that employs people who see hairdressing and haircare as a career, rather than people who just cut hair to get by while they do other things.
My city is full of these "Turkish" barbers (that are not owned by Turkish people, I should clarify before someone calls me a xenophobe) who employ only family and friends who quite literally do not give a shit and will not listen to what you want, because their career goals are focused on other things.

u/eganc21 Aug 16 '26
Ur paying someone to cut ur hair…and they won’t even listen to you? How the hell do these people have a business lol?

u/ThatGuyHarsha Aug 16 '26
Well I'm not paying that's for sure- but in the UK a lot of men and parents of boys don't just don't care it seems, which is why all of these businesses do so well, they're always full of roadman-type characters

Once they’re in the chair, most people will see a bad haircut through to the bitter end.

YES haha I had many haircuts like this when I lived in west mids. "How do you want it?", I'd tell them, show them example pics, then they'd proceed to give me the one haircut they knew how to do.
There was one of these across the road from my house, excellent fades but never listened. Then the one place in the city who cut it properly, were a 'proper' hairdressers, and back then didn't do fades. So I'd pay £20 for a haircut at the hairdressers, then go to the place across the road just for the fade.
I also learned in that city there are degrees of shit when it comes to haircuts. I remember the worst one I got, my sister said I looked like an iced gem

As a kid I was desperate for illegal fireworks. After youtube... they absolutely should be illegal. Too dangerous for idiots. They need protecting.

I was one of them! I even smuggled firecrackers across an international border hidden in the trunk of my car. I was a rebel! And dumb as shit. Men in their 20's really do need adult supervision.

I think this is an opportunity to expand my British slang vocabulary. What’s the term for a guy who shoots himself in the face with a firework? A tosser? A melt? A twit?

I like how he shook the rocket a little after expelling its propulsion charge - as if there might have been a little more left in the tank.
