Why is it that you can find mullets in just about any country in the world?

I can't stop laughing about this... One of my best friends, Elaine (currently living in beautiful Italia with her stud of a boyfriend Marco), entirely against her will, was given what she dubs a "euromullet." I'll let her tell the story:


OKAY, for ONE YEAR now I have been going to the same hairdresser. Every time I go there, they try and persuade me into getting this euromullet haircut which is this high fashion haircut for females that so closely resembles BUSINESS IN THE FRONT PARTY IN THE BACK that every time I see it I nearly have a heart attack. For those of you who have been to europe recently (keely, jessie, kathlene, emily) you know the one I'm talking about. However, after working in Milan for over a year, I have seen more mullets than I saw growing up in Tulsa (believe it or not) so it has basically become a normal part of life here. So today, when I mentioned I wanted to 'try something new', they explained to me a cute 'layered look' that they've been dying to try on me. Suspecting that they were trying to secretly give me the femullet, I asked to see a picture of this mysterious layered look in order to be sure. So they show me this picture which is completely normal-looking, and I was too tired to ask them to elaborate any more so I let them go ahead with the haircut. The BASTARDS won this time, because as hard as I have been trying to resist for one year they finally succeeded in giving me a freaking mullet. I have attached pictures so that you can understand my pain, and that so perhaps you can pray for me.

I need encouragement, bigtime.

Angry, mulleted, offended, and embarrassed,
Elaine
