An unscientific but still somewhat assiduous study of the bouffants boasted by most Japanese men would almost certainly suggest that baldness isn’t as big a blight on the nation’s blokes as it is back in my native Britain.
Or there again maybe, just maybe, wigs are a well used but equally well kept secret, with a rug being as readily donned as a raincoat. However, while that is very much open to debate, what isn’t is that just like the latter, wigs do wear, and this poor fella’s equally poor hairpiece,
is possibly now about as hirsute as his head.

Thats one well defined parting!
Hachi says
Hey, maybe it’s not a wig but his actual hair and he has a battle scar there? You never know with japanese middle aged men…

Every time, EVERY SINGLE TIME, that someone calls a toupee a “syrup” I crack up. Thanks for the laugh!
Do you read Viz?
Lee says
Glad it made you laugh Eric. I haven’t read Viz for years now, but I used to be an avid reader. In the days when it was good!
Eric says
Of course Viz is “not as funny as it used to be” ® but it still beats most anything else. They’ve stopped spotting syrups, but the profanisaurus alone is worth the cover price.
