No Rule frfr

On a serious note, have any of my US friends noticed how thick ol Washingtons neck has gotten on the newer quarters? Got rid of his braid too.

Yeah, people with a more natural haircut are more ridiculous than dudes with powered wigs and whatever dumb fashion GW and the guys in the 1770s had.

Benjamin Franklin had a skullet/mullet and creampied menopausal women.

  Goals
- Why were the wigs powered?
  
  To allow atmospheric flight and quick traversal of complex palace interiors
  
  It is what gave them their white colour. Powderless wigs were quite the improvement.
  
  They just fall off when unpowered.
I see this hair cut on a lot of people.

Are the curls natural?
- Could be on some but for most, it’s a perm.
  
  Haha, oh man, back when I was a kid (around the time of the Russian Revolution), getting a perm would have been social sepukku.
  
  My grandma had a perm, for instance, and slept with rollers in.
  
  That said, this gif is painfully accurate

Can someone explain to me what 'no cap' means?

Is it like... no capacity limit... unlimited?

???
- It means "no lie" in English (Traditional).
  
  Oh, so, 'truthfully' or 'verily'.
  
  Welp. Sure, ok. Uh...
  
  How... wtf is the etymology on that? I have no clue how cap = lie.
  
  Last time I talked to a Gen Alpha I literally could not understand 70% of what they were saying. I look a bit younger than I actually am so I had to say look I'm in my 30s, talk to me like I'm a boomer.
  
  Then they dropped the lingo, after rolling their eyes and pouting.
  
  Hooooray for being old. And autistic. Now I'm going to pout.
oh my god he's MEWING
Is that General Mattis with a broccoli cut?
The interesting thing is this was apparently the portrau=it that won the original design conpetition in 1932.
