"hair" news and stories

If there's one piece of advice I always give people it's this: never argue with someone who serves you food and drink.

Of course, the customer at this Texas Roadhouse didn't even argue with the waiter or cook when his steak was overcooked, but he still got a nasty surprise when he cut into it: the cook's hair! The steak was overcooked, and when it was sent back to the kitchen, the customer was offered another steak to take home with him. That's the one the cook cut open and placed his hair in. A co-worker in the kitchen told authorities that the cook said "these are my pubes" (yikes), though he's only charged with putting facial hair in the steak.

The twist to this is that the customer wasn't even going to complain about the first overcooked steak, it was the restaurant manager who insisted that he get another ribeye.

We already know that creepy ads must sell more burgers, but can they sell candy, too? Skittles newest ad features a man with what appears to be a magical beard. The several foot long beard moves of its own accord, picking up Skittles and popping them into the mouth of the hirsute beard-owner. As disturbing as that image is, the worst it yet to come. The whole scene takes place during a job interview and when the man doesn't get the job, his beard feeds the woman interviewing him a Skittle and then strokes her face. The image of a mangy, hairy mass feeding Skittles to a woman is, quite unfortunately, now imprinted onto my brain. Good job, Skittles. This ad beats out the creepy king ad.

The entire video of the commercial is after the jump.
