Wait til your menopause comes…your hair will thin out and you’ll start seeing a lot more hairs trapped in your comb. John will laugh at you – rightly so.
I’ve heard the average human loses 100 strands of hair per day. That doesn’t bode well for those of us with hereditary hair loss and thinning. I’m talking both men AND women. (I come from a long line of bald old women and I am VERY worried about that!)
Here is another pun Lynn Johnston can use. If Michael and Rhetta are having dinner, and Rhetta’s brother balks at being served liver and onions, Michael and his friends can use a punny song:
John worries? That is new. Considering how much worrying his wife has done about money, about the kids, about their lot in the life she had made a mountain of diarrhea.
People’s hair is always falling out and being replaced, losing one’s hair just means new strands aren’t growing not that old strands are falling out all at once.

A man’s home is his castle.
Turns into
A man’s comb is his hassle. Hilarious because changing words makes it funny. Other choices that were considered and wisely rejected were:
A man’s dome is his detassel.
A man’s chrome is his vehicle.
A man’s gnome is his vassal.

Actually, 100–150 hairs per day is normal.

I stopped counting hairs in my comb when I stopped having enough hair to comb. …it still falls out.

Is John sure that he counted correctly? Sixteen hairs would have made a big diff.

Or, could it be John now lives in a home that is dominated by females? A sure cause of stress and increased hair loss…. “A Sexist Would Say”…. LOL

John, you’re not losing your hair, your mind maybe, but not your hair.

I know it’s all “repeats” since going into syndication, but, sometimes it’s fun to revisit and get a laugh … Thanks so much.

Did you know that about 90% of bald men own a comb? They just can’t part with it! Ha ha

My hair is past my shoulders and my brush is always filled with hair. It’s natural to shed the old hair while new hair grows in.
