At 35 I find the occasional grey hair now and then. At least I still have hair.

I'm 36 and I have been getting the random grey hair for years. The grey hairs are gaining ground though :(

You know what makes me feel old. We have an au-pair in the house and when I explain to her what Galaga is and then I realize she wasn't born when I was playing games on those machines.

It depends on what kind of cheese.  It COULD have been born when Galaga was still in the arcades.  But I didn't think cheese really played games.

I'm 34 and have had slowly encroaching white hair for 10 years.  Started at the temples and has been going back and up ever since.  (safe here because we're dorks reference: Reed Richards) (hbo reference: Pauly Walnuts)

The weird thing (at first anyway, now I'm used to it) the brown hair was curly.  The white hair that I assume is growing out of the same folicles is straight.

All quite mysterious.

I'm gonna be an awesome Santa as soon as the beard stops being red, brown, and blonde.

Please resume your discussion of cheesecake.  Sorry to have interrupted :)

I shave every monday.  As I've got blonde hair, I don't see grey.  I'll go bald before I go gray.  But so far it's haning in there. 

being blonde is nice because for the most part our facial hair doesn't grow very fast.  I love shaving once a week.

I'm 39, and got quite a few grey ones.

But I'm not worried....

After a week, I've got pretty much a full beard.

Yeah my hair started getting lazy as it didn't want to travel to the top as much. So it's starting to come out the ears. I bit the bullet a few months ago and shaved the dome. I wouldn't have minded gray hair but I refuse to walk around with a hair horseshoe. I'm only 31. Say cheese  :P

Same here, which is why I stopped trying and grew the beard.  My skin doesn't deal well with daily shaving.

Well you know, being the lazy slacker that I am, I'd love to quit shaving and just grow a beard, but it starts to drive me crazy after about two weeks, by the time I've had it for a month I can't take it any more and shave it off.

I also turn 41 in march.

I have a scattering of gray hairs, but no bald spots, and only a slight receding at the temples.

You know what, I don't care.

I can't do anything about my age.  I could do something about the hair, but I'd rather spend the money on other things.  If it starts to really fall out, I'll just shave my head.

My health I do care about so I am working out three or four times a week.  I have a Karate class once a week plus practice at home three or four days a week.

....I try not to fret about the fact I'm 37 and my hair is thinning.

I'm going to a "gentleman's club" tomorrow w/a co worker.

Getting drunk with a 19 year old on your lap always feels good and makes me forget I'm almost 20 years older than these "dancers!"......  :P

I don't think Ive ever actually planned on going to a "gentleman's club" - I just somehow end up being there drunk past midnight.

well...when you're married....you go when you're wife is going out with the ladies!.....
Seriously. Will it fit in my basement or what?

Watch out for the "stripper smell" and the glitter.

Gentleman' Club ...  I seem to end up at a dive titty bar.
A buddy of mine will tend to spill gas on himself afterwards to get rid of the baby power smell.  (Yea, my buddy isn't the sharpest tool in the shead)

Amateurs.

You come home covered in glitter and stripper smell and then eff your wife until her teeth are loose.

That way she doesn't mind when you hit the nudie bar.

Baldness (or lack thereof) is an X-chromosome dominate trait - in other words, if you want to know if you're going to go bald or not, look at the men on your mom's side of the family.

I started losing my hair at 22 (yes, my mom's side men were all bald, dammit!). So now that I'm 35, I'm finally starting to look my age since I've looked 35 for the last 13 years. On the upside of hair loss, easy to get ready in the morning since I have the shaved thing going. Roll out of bed and look like you're going to look the rest of the day, bald.
I've got a fever...

When you can't see your own junk you really, REALLY need to lose some weight.

Unless, of course, he means he hasn't seen his wife in four years, in which case, congrats.

Unless, of course, he means he hasn't seen his wife or his junk in four years, which may or may not mean his wife left and took his junk with her.

She probably came to Oklahoma. If I see her, I'll send your regards.

This is somewhat of an "old school" belief that isn't entirely true.  Seems it is more complex than that.  I always questioned it just because I have seen so many father and sons with similar balding.
