I found a number of articles about the split-second decisions people make especially with e-marketing. This one seemed to be more reliable than some of the others.

I wore my hair funny last Thursday just to get people's first reactions. It was combed over vs. straight down as I've worn in for years. Here are the comments I received:

"Blank stares...at my hair"
"What a clean boy you are today!"
"What's with the hair, it's not that its's dramatic but it is just crazy"
"Eww...a combover, haven't seen those for a while, are they back in?"
"That's neat, i saw that movie, Pleasantville right?"

These guys are my friends too. I bet the others said things behind my back...yeah i bet they did, yeah


Interesting survey eh?
