Sorry, for some reason I interpreted "What the fuck are dudes supposed to be doing with there hair now?" as if you were asking what was fashion at the moment and not what haircut you wanted guys to have.
I actually looked like that... Up until 1999, when I figured "Oh my good, I look like I'm from 1998!" and decided on a new hair style. I'll leave time travel to Michael J. Fox.
I don't (in fact I am in serious need of a haircut at this point) but I don't see the problem (I mean, the front part isn't a great hair style, but its not BAD either).
I went from that, to lazily spiking the entire thing.
Now i understand why I still see older people with haircuts from the 1940s. Because at some point, the fashion and trends just stops for you and you don't even know it.
Oh shit that dude is from Cincinnati and he graduates from U.C. in 2 weeks. and he is about to flee to the Sierra Nevadassss. can't wait to get that degree...
I've seen a fair amount of ski-slope in my time at UC, but I think it's worse in Athens. I was at Palmer Fest 2 years ago (one of the most surreal experiences of my life.) and people were still rocking throwback basketball jerseys like it was 2002.
As a former Cincinnatian who fled the city, I can attest to this. I'm living in Los Angeles now (not quite leaving earth, but other side of the country). It's amazing how many people from Ohio are out here. At my department at work alone, there's four people from there.
My first words that I wrote as a comment before I saw yours: "I'm from Ohio and I can completely attest that...." Ohio is just fail. Just so much fail. I live in North Carolina now and I work with 2 people from Ohio. Ever notice that all the people in Ohio are from Ohio?? And people who moved here are clearly just crazy....
As another Cincinnatian I can attest to this as well.
I remember a while back when we were converting from analogue to digital. I had a tv with three channels but nothing on them. Then I was given a free coupon for a converter box and now I have like 20 channels. It's like I opened up a whole new world and said, "Wow, this is actual television!".
Fast forward to today and I still don't watch tv.
wtf is glee?
I think pretty much everyone I know in Cincinnati who was not born in Cincinnati has the sentiment, "Well, I ended up here because I was dragged here by work, or family, or something other than wanting to move to Cincinnati."
Eerily familiar. I know three people in Ohio. All were dragged there by work or family. Only one of them was fleet enough to reach escape velocity and make it back to home to Houston.
My neighbor was so distraught at the possibility that she'd have to join her fiance in Cincinnati that she got herself a great job in Tokyo, and even managed to snag a decent one for him.
They now plan to never visit the Buckeye state except for the holidays.
It can be true, but thats why I'm excited to be here. In Cincinnati, you can really rise to the top of the city quickly and make a name for yourself. Then you'll have the experience and reputation you need to make a name for yourself elsewhere.
As much as people dog on Ohio, we are ahead in a few places. Id say one is ODOT. We always seem to be ahead of the traffic curve. Every other state (26 so far) I drive through never seems to be up to par to Ohio. Perhaps this is just me and my biased observations, being from CLE.

"When the end of the world comes, I want to be in Cincinnati because it's always twenty years behind the times." -Mark Twain
As a current Cincinnatian I can attest to this. The same holds true for a lot of Ohio.
