This was the case for me today, when I saw the phrase "long hair, don't care" being used on Twitter for the 100th time, leaving me in a heap of confusion and feeling very old and wrinkly.
Me: OK. So I have to ask. What the hell does "long hair, don't care" mean?
Miguel: I have no idea what you're talking about.
Me: You lie. It's what the cool kids are saying.
Miguel: Then I definitely have no idea what you're talking about.
Me: Faahhhhk. It's official. We're no longer young.
Miguel: Speak for yourself.
Me: Old! Old and outdated with the hip lingo.
Miguel: Hold on, dude.
Me: Ahhhh. Totally.
For those who don't, I made you a scale.
Give-A-Shit-Scale (From 1-5)
Now we can be cool together! And if someone says you're not, just be all "Long hair don't care, dickface."

I remember 6 years ago when it was IDGAF (I don't give a fuck)
Now *I* feel old. I probably can't get it up anymore...

Your "friend" Miguel is ridiculous and an idiot. Jesus had long hair and he cared. A lot. He even cared about whores like you
Jesus just called....he said that anonymous is a closet gay w/ a just stepped off the ship cut :)oh, and he loves whores too!
Anonymous, if you can't be nice, at least be funny. That was just rude and tastless, using Whore and Jesus in the same comment.
Hahaha! LOVE IT! I have to admit, I too was freaking out a little, okay a lot, because I had not a clue what you were talking about! THANK YOU for the definition. I can sleep well now, knowing what I know! Hopefully, my alzheimer won't kick in and prevent me from remembering to not only use the saying but do so appropriately.
I *am* curious as to who comes up with this shit? lol
The two comments written by "Anonymous" on your two most recent posts really needs to lighten up.
He is being a Debbie Downer for sure.
Next time I'm going to skip the "idc" and mix it up a bit with some long hair.
Next time I'll have to skip the "idc" and mix it up with some long hair.
i knew i shouldn't have cut my hair. i mean, it's still shouldery length. actually, if it's relative to my sex life, i should cut it shorter since awesome husband and i are too tired for knockin' boots most nights. le sigh.
LOL! I just found out yesterday what SMH means. I came up with "slap my ho", but apparently it means "shaking my head". hahaha
Good thing I decided that I don't give a shit anymore.
HOly crap-anonymous is a jesus freak! Lol, that's sorta awesome in that creepy peewee herman way...
This cracked me up! I love the illustrations! I would argue with anon though that Jesus really didn't care about all the stupid stuff we care about. He was kind of a hippie. But I won't really argue with anon because that would just make me dumb. And you just made me smart, so I don't want to counteract that.
I have long hair and I don't care! Meds help, though...
Wow. You really do learn something new every day. Now I can be cool too! Thanks! :)
Really anonymous, Jesus? It's just an expression, stop being offended in Jesus' place, I'm sure if he minded we'd have all been smited down.
I bet you have short hair.
'Hair' says it all. You don't grow old as long as you have friends like Miguel. I think the Ist & 2nd baldie notes have interchanged.
@ Anon: I think you are a phony. Nobody who has Jesus with him would ever be nameless. Get REAL!
I might need to let my hair grow a bit..
And I was thinking about getting my head shaved again. Guess not!
Anon--you never disappoint me with your ridiculousness.
I feel incredibly old when new things come up and I have no idea what they are. I feel older that my 21 year old sister doesn't think that "planking" is freaking stupid and I think it's the dumbest thing to ever be "invented". Oh well. Can't stay young forever. Then again...I could be like Austin Powers "I'm hip, I'm cool.' *does macarena*
seriously....thats what it means? im kind of disappointed...
OK, I'll admit I have never heard that one and will try to forget it quickly. Loved your art though sweet thang.
THAT explains a lot! I've had long hair since I was 5 yrs old and my dad was a hippie! Care-free runs in my family lol. Long hair don't care, long hair don't care, Long Hair Don't care. I love saying that! Jeje :).
Sincerely,
Long Hair Don't Care (LHDC) :)
hahaha i had no idea this was even going on. wow. where do mohawks fit in this equation?
This is one of those times where I'm glad I grew up a little bit and had no idea what this meant. That's just... Neh!
That must be why we're rocking long hair, sweetie. ;)
Does your stylist try to get you to cut yours? Because mine does and I tell her I don't care (<---hahaha) how "cute" I'd look, I'm keeping my sexy long locks.~
I'm old, too. Had no idea. :)
ahh, so that's what that means... good to know! You are so very educational!
I don't expect "long hair, don't care" to last long. It's just a rhyme. You're still cool.
I still want to stab myself in the guts with an ice pick when someone bothers to write "Oh, snap!" on facebook or something.
lmaooooooo! where do kids come up with these things. I feel *super* old, we are not with the in anymore :(( When did that happen?! LOL!!
That's the most ridiculous phrase I've ever heard in my life. What's wrong with a good old fashioned "I don't give a flying fuck"? To put so much effort into coming up with a ridiculous phrase like "long hair, don't care" indicates that you do, indeed, give a care. And the REALLY ridiculous thing about it is that I can't for the life of me figure out why this phrase is pissing me off so much!
Fucking kids.
HILARIOUS. Damn, I love your blog.
I must be especially uncool because I've never even heard that phrase. And I think it might be the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Oh god. I'm like that old person standing in my yard yelling at the neighbor kids.
Balding may not be hereditary. Bald people just worry too much. Their lost hair just crawls over and latches onto a hippies hairy back instead.
I seriously think it sounds hilarious. Because it makes no friggin' sense whatsoever. Try saying it to your boss next time she asks for something ridiculous. And flip your hair while you're at it. It's fun! :::: snorts loudly and spills water onto keyboard :::: I am very easily amused, guys.
We should make up our own, so those damn kids feel jealous of the cool old people.
Either that or bring back expressions that they wont remember, having been in diapers at the time.
I'll go watch Blossom and Full House re-runs to get ideas, you go and tell everyone the plan.... ready? BREAK.
oh... I am SO using this! Like all the time...
See, I count on you to keep me in the loop of what's happening in the world. My grandkids are getting older now so I need to be one cool grandma! Love you sweetie!
I just went though the same bullshit trying to figure out was "SMH" means in Facebook, Twitter, Texts etc. I felt like a complete knob asking a much younger co-worker.....she was like "shake my head, how could you not know that?"........fuck me....
To every rule there's an exception. I don't have long hair & very often I still find I don't care.
That is some of the stupidest shit I have ever heard. Frealz.
What a stupid expression. I will never use it. That is all.
i have long hair and i love not to care
I find Google helps with a lot of these new sayings. The fact that I have used Google on more than one occasion to decifer an acronym just goes to show how old I am. And to think, I used to be cool.
May I just say two words: Urban Dictionary at urbandictionary.com You can find just about any current slang term or acronym there. Case in point, go to http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=long+hair%2C+dont+care
It's an invaluable tool for us oldies. (Sorry to include you in the oldies group...you really haven't reached oldie status yet.)
I thought for sure it was about pubes!!!
Long hair don't care....cause your not gettin any!
short hair...you do care ... cause you are! (so your trimmed)
Bonnie: SMH is one of those things that caught like wildfire and now everyone is using. I didn't even realize that many people even shook their heads so damn much.
Steve: HILARIOUS. That makes perfect fucking sense! :)
IDk if someone already said this cuz really, I'm not gonna read thru 47 comments, but I love this post!!! LOL... I say LHDC all the time and just to add to your knowledge bout the phrase: i'm almost 99% positive it was invented... or at least perfected and made cool by Lil Wayne! Also, it really only works if you actually have long hair, so the "cool" ppl that can say it... totally limited! LOL... I shared this one! FUNNY MY FRENG!!!!
Anonymous needs to go back to church if they can mention Jesus and whore in the same sentence not even realizing that Jesus loves everyone. If you dont like the thread then just keep it movin...
Love the blog mama!!!! BTW thanks for letting me know....i guess i am getting old too :( wahhhh
Psh, I'm only 20 and I've never heard that. Then again I'm not in the "in" crowd >.> But thanks, now I can use it ^^
Very Funny! Love your style!
I'm 19 and I didn't know what that meant, or smh. My boyfriend got a text from one of his friends that said "long hair, don't care" and the only thing we could come up with was that girls usually have long hair, so his friend meant he didn't care that my boyfriend was staying home with me instead going out and partying.
