    No, not at all…you’re insulting someone about baldness. What if I’m bald and take great offence to you basically saying fuck bald people because they are bald. These little insults are no different then calling someone gay as an insult, or a retard. It’s insulting way more people then you might actually think AND it creates this societal norm that baldness, is wrong and you should be ashamed of it and hide who you are.

    You, are being a problem right now by insulting people based on things they cannot control. All it does is reinforce some weird bullshit stigma that baldness is inherently bad.

    If the guys a racist prick, call him that. Don’t insult him because he’s bald, has big ears, wears glasses, etc…

      If I talk about Donald Trump’s tiny baby hands, I’m not insulting all people with small hands. I’m insulting a guy who is very insecure about the idea of people who think he has tiny baby hands.

      But I apologize to all of the members of the highly-oppressed bald community for my previous posts.
