Probably because the plastic surgery of her face is so tight she cant see any clear pictures anymore

One has skin way too loose for his face and another has it way too tight. Amazing

I could believe she had no idea he was a billionaire, and just had like 50+ million.

Usually billionaires at least splurge for $20 hair cuts. That man is obviously still using a bowl.

It's also believable the smile is the only thing she could convincably lie about

You don’t get to that level of wealth by getting haircuts from a stylist. He pinched every penny, got bowl cuts while his friends got specialty cuts, skipped the avocado toast and drank water instead of $5 coffees. Then his rich parents just gave him a small 10 million dollar loan and sent him to a prestigious school where only other rich kids went.

Honestly, respect to him for the shit tier haircut. At least he didn’t try to fake it like Elon.

I have very strong, mixed feelings about your post.

Well done mother fucker!

[–] Donjuanme 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The story I read, decades ago, said he goes to the same barber (shop?) that he went to as a young person.

I... Guess I can understand that, but if they're telling him that haircut works, I mean keep your clients happy, especially if they're clueless multi millionaires.

[–] givesomefucks 8 points 2 months ago

That explains it, dudes in his 70s it looks like, the barber would have to be 90s.

And he's so rich, he probably hasn't heard an honest opinion about himself in decades

For the record, as the resident Raider fan of Lemmy, this lady was sat next to MD at one of the games. They aren't dating, and she's currently pregnant with another man's baby. The media already tried to say it was his baby. She denied that and said the father was some baseball player.

You know who has a haircut like that? People who are surrounded by nothing but sycophants and yes-men who never give a true and unsolicited opinion like "Dude, you look like your mom whipped out a flowbee and a bowl?"

[–] Raiderkev 15 points 2 months ago

You'd be surprised. Marks hairdresser is on the record saying she's tried to talk him into literally any other haircut

Billionaire: gimme the friar cut

Barber: got you fam

TbF I also haven't heard of the raidersmark Davis. With that haircut I would have assumed probably not a billionaire and it's a pretty good smile.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Do you think it’s pronounced raiders-mark, or raider-smark? Ugh, if I meet him I’ll just guess and then mis-accent billionaire to see if I can pass it off as a joke.

They are both fucking weird looking

[–] Anticorp 8 points 2 months ago

Hell yes. I hate those injected balloon lips that have become popular thanks to Instagram and Kardashians.

how you gonna be a billionaire and still use a bowl for your hair

go to a damn barber

hard to make that flesh sack look good, but it could be better

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

You don’t become a billionaire by spending all your money

But fr tho that hair is wrecked

[–] Beardsley 17 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Yeah! You become a billionaire by disproportionately profiting off the backs of people you exploit!

Also, a ton of other unethical and sociopathic tactics!

If I was a billionaire I would have a trainer, a chef, and a stylist.

that's the face of a guy who surrounds himself with people he pays to tell him he doesn't look like a gone-horribly-wrong high school science experiment involving bumphead parrotfish and hydrofluoric acid

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Apparently his father was a pretty cool guy, advocated for civil rights by refusing to play in cities with segregation.

That's some reeeal old money phrenology.

...you know - because of the obvious rampant inbreeding.

So she's greedy and has no self-respect. Good to know.

Just crunched some numbers. This dude is worth 2.3 billion. If he spent HALF of his money on $100 haircuts, he could afford 11.5 million haircuts.

[–] PlantJam 7 points 2 months ago (4 children)

If he got a haircut every minute, it would take almost 22 years to get that many haircuts.

Lol at the comments talking about how awful she looks. The shallowness aside, I'd be very happy to have a girlfriend who looked like that.

God, I am so enticed with his smile, the elegant gap between the top fronts, the subtle off-white coloring...

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

I'm drawn to his smile because his haircut is herding me away from the top of his head like a cocaine-fueled collie.
