i once over heard my little sisters and there friends chatting; the convo was as follows:

"oh my god i cant believe she likes a ging boy, i hate gingers (laughing) they're all so ugly, they're like orangatangs, but i have to say your sister finnola is actually pretty.... ...for a ging"

it amused me.. haha

......well it's not being patted on the head as a kid, being told by some blue rinse, " what wonderful hair i had" lol

 

For me it's not what they say, it's more what they do!

The second look of a girl as she is walking down the street,  

The standing by my side when i'm going toe to toe,

My wife saying "i do",

My Ginger son wanting to grow his hair long,

Sites like this..........it's all good

This is the best forum post i've ever read anywhere!  It actually made me a little moist, well done sir!

Run, run, as fast as you can. You can't catch me, i'm the ginger head man!

I never really got a compliment until i came here; when i was a kid (when I was about 6 i think) one of my parents friends used to tell me to wash the fly shinolae off my face (my frickles). I got so paranoid about it i asked my mum how i could get rid of them. she proceeded to tell me lemon juice would do the trick but she wasnt going to buy me anyway =[ Then in junior school it was the old carrot top (along with being called stewbag, name being stuart =/). Highschool was the worst as there were maybe 3 redheads in the whole school, used to get a fair amount of abuse for it. Usually being 'cussed' by about four people at once. Even on the way home on the bus haha. makes me laugh now how shallow some people can be. Anything to make themselves feel special hehe, well you obviously need it if you need to resort to name calling =oP

No matter how much I struggle and strive, I know I'll never get out of this world alive!

and see, I was gonna post something smart-ass like "my mom tells me I have pretty hair" but after mr. goat's post, smart-ass just isn't as funny.

Yeah I can't think of any one thing anyone has ever said either. But that might be because I am in the depths of coffee-withdrawal. But through the haze I have a vision of lots of pretty girls smiling at me.

duhhhhh. my brain is useless right now. ignore this post.

I was once told that I glow; that was nice.

The world was made for those not cursed with self-awareness. The rest of us are fucked.
