You're listening to Away with Words, the show about language and how we use it.

I'm Martha Barnett.

And I'm Grant Barrett.

I was reminded again this week that in English we have a lot of these cute little phrases that we use to exchange words with strangers,

things that we say like hot enough for you or have a nice day. But the thing that they say

to me now, now that I keep my head basically bald, is things about my baldness. I was at an outdoor

concert here in San Diego, beautiful weather, but sunny. So I put some sunscreen on the top of my

head, which is basically bald.

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Good practice.

And a fellow comes up to me and asks to borrow the sunscreen, and then he said to me something like,

what was on top has left and I can't get it back.

What's on my back is all that's left.

To which I replied, a busy road grows no grass.

And then he replied, it's a solar panel for a sex machine.

And so it turns out, if you Google this, there are a ton of these expressions that bald people become accustomed to saying.

Because people can't stop commenting on the state of your head.

It's like it's the male equivalent of being pregnant. They can't not say anything. They feel compelled. Do they want to help? What I should have said, and this is one of my favorites, God only made so many perfect heads, the rest he covered in hair. So there's a ton of this stuff. Well, Grant, are you considering going to the Baldest Beautiful Convention in Moorhead, North Carolina, Moorhead City?

I'm not committed to making it a lifestyle.
