Rant #2,589: Monkey Time



The world has gone mad.
 
It truly is a “A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.”
 
But more than 50 years after that movie came out, who would have known how truly mad this world has become?
 
Remember last week I told you about those neighbors who did not get along, and while one set of neighbors—a husband and a wife—were purposely shoveling their snow on another neighbor’s grounds, and that neighbor came out and shot them before taking his own life?
 
Well, I have one that takes the cake, the glue that broke the came’s back.
 
I am sure that you heard about the woman who put Gorilla Glue into her hair, using it as what she thought was a substitute for hairspray, and now seemingly has the glue permanently attached to her skull.
 
She is now getting a law team together to perhaps launch a lawsuit … for what, I don’t know, since the directions on the bottle of the world’s strongest glue clearly state that the glue is not to come in contact with either the user’s skin or hair.
 
What chance does this moron have of winning this case?
 
And to add insult to injury, she has launched a fundraiser to cover her hospital costs.
 
And how do we know about her self-inflicted predicament to begin with?
 
Well, she did what any self-respected citizen in distress would do: she put up a series of videos on Tik Tok to show what she was going through.
 
Heck, if I were her, I would be so embarrassed with what I had done that I wouldn’t want too many people to see how absolutely stupid I was, but in today’s age, stupidity equals fame, and I guess a book and maybe a movie will come out of this.
 
But she is a moron, isn’t she, and how anybody can have any sympathy or empathy for this woman is beyond me.
 
But what do I know? I come from a generation that sniffed airplane glue, but never put glue in their hair.
 
We had ethics!
 
Look, if the girl was using the Gorilla Glue as a substitute for hairspray, I remember what my mother used years ago so her hair wouldn’t move, and believe me, it would have done the trick in a much safer way.
 
My mom used to use something called Adorn Hair Spray, which came in an aerosol can and was so pungent that whatever you sprayed it on would literally stop in motion—your hair, ants, whatever.



 
It came in this long, skinny can, and would sit in our bathroom on top of the part of the toilet’s tank, because the canister was so long that you could not fit it into a medicine cabinet.
 
It was literally lacquer for the hair, but I guess you could wash it out after you stiffened up your hair.
 
I thought that the product wasn’t made anymore, but lo and behold, I see that you can still get it, but instead of paying $3.99 for it, or whatever it once cost, if you really want this thing, you can get it for $24.99 for a 7.5-oz. can on amazon.

I am sure all of you ladies will now run to amazon and get your own Adorn Hair Spray after you found out from me that it still exists, but at least you will be using something that can be washed out.
 
There was also another similar product called Aqua Net, but in my house, Adorn was it.
 
You cannot wash out Gorilla Glue from your head, and if you ever doubted this, than the woman who put this substance in her hair so it wouldn’t move is proof positive that not only shouldn’t you do this, but that people can be very, very stupid when they don’t use the brains God gave them.
 
Sure, the allotment of brains isn’t always equal, but this woman has already won “The Most Stupid Person of 2021” award, hands down, wouldn’t you agree?
 
Look, people have repurposed popular products for generations—remember how some people had good results after using Preparation H on their faces to get rid of wrinkles?—but to use glue on your head is the ultimate in stupidity.
 
Even Dr. Frankenstein used bolts and clamps to put together his monster, but heck, this dummy who used Gorilla Glue on her head is a real-life human being, so are you more afraid of the fictional monster or are you more afraid of her?
