in conversation during my regular High & Tight last night, says “I can always tell when a guy has a yappy wife”.

me: “His ears are bleeding?”
Joe: “No, hairy. A guy has a wife won’t shut the fuck up, his ears are hairy as a french woman’s armpits.”
me: “Really!”
Joe: Yeah. I been a barber 50 years and it’s always true. A guy has hairy ears,I ask him, you got a yappy wife? Every time he says ‘Jesus is she ever!'”
me: “Joe, you’ve done a great service to science.”
Joe: “I don’t know about that. I just know the body is smart, and it tries to close off those holes where the pain is coming through”
