For love of the bun

[masraum]

No, not this one


Not these


Not even this one (which is pretty darned awesome)


No, I'm talking about these.


Ken Doll with a man bun.




What I want to know is WTF is wrong with young men? Hahah, the man bun has got to go.

Unless you're this guy, and you can "take care" of anyone that makes fun of your doo like he would...


Or the man, Toshiro Mifune.


And just to prove that Toshiro was the Japanese McQueen and end this post on a slightly less ridiculous note.

For Mifune, it would be culturally appropriate. For Ken, it is appropriate also, 'cause he still doesn't have even a hint of genitalia

Buns and scruffy faces...
Must be what women want...who knows?

Was Mifune in the classic Chinese movie The Seven Samurai?

Yes. IMDb.com is very handy for questions like that.

Toshirô Mifune - IMDb

Also, check out IMCDb.org for similar quizzical queries about vehicles in movies and TV shows.

I thought he looked familiar.
We watched that film a few times in an ISLS program years past...did the whole critic decipher deal with classic movies, etc.
Another classic movie was Ikiru...1952 Japanese.
In college.

OK, back to buns.

[WPOZZZ]

I really don't get the manbun.

[Geronimo '74]

Fck the bun.
Flower beards are taking over!

[oldE]

Ok. That explains why the other day I saw a guy with pieces of moss in his beard.
I was afraid he might have been eating a tree.

Buns are very metrosexual, add a pair of capris and you have the perfect girly man. Tim

No I believe hat "women" don't like this look, but maybe "girls" do.

[timchar]

Hey, now that I think about it, if I were to wear one, it would cover up my little bald spot...Not in a million years! Tim

Yesterday I was driving along and saw some geek with TWO man buns on it's head, like in the old days you would see a girl with two ponytails, this geek had TWO, one on each side of it's head.

Seven Samurai (七人の侍 Shichinin no Samurai) is a 1954 Japanese epic historical adventure drama film co-written, edited, and directed by Akira Kurosawa. The story takes place in 1586 during the Sengoku Period of Japanese history. It follows the story of a village of farmers that hire seven ronin (masterless samurai) to combat bandits who will return after the harvest to steal their crops.

Samurai = Japanese

Shaolin Monks = Chinese

Correction- handlebuns

I hate man buns. I feel embarrassed for those stupid enough to demascluinize themselves with one. Samurai get a pass. They were no doubt badazzes.

[DanielDudley]

You can always get a hair cut when you come to your senses. Tats however, are permanent.

[WPOZZZ]

Damn hipsters!

[JD159]

Went to the Canada vs USA rugby match today. Good game. USA boys got lucky

Saw a couple guys on the field with man buns. I wouldn't question...

[Tobra]

Tats can also be removed.

I had a ponytail when I grew my hair to donate to that locks of love deal. It sucks more than a little bit to have long hair, like having a second job almost.
