how come all common wans want to be a hairdresser

If I ever do a course and there is a "wan" there their is almost literally a 50 percent chance of them saying I want to be a hairdresser.

Why is this?

How did you mess that up?

Because they eventually want to end up on Big Brother.

However if you get Executive Barbie your little princess will be an accountant.

They have to make do with hairdressing as we do not have the same demand as England has for WAGs.

How is "common" defined? Would an inability to distinguish between there and their be part of it?

WAGs stands for Wives and Girlfriends. The way you used it makes no sense. You're saying they want to be "wife and girlfriend"?

Get your sh*t together before you try to be smug with abbreviations.

Get your sh*t together before you smugly throw phrases around that you don't even understand.

Do you also say "ATM Machine"?

Oh please, wag is the term everyone uses and you're just being a pedant

Relax there superstar

Because you don't really need any smarts of good schooling to be a hairdresser do you, so for many it's the only viable option. The pay is awful though. If not hairdresser they do some kind of beautician course, these commoners.

If it was changed to Wives Or Girlfriends, it would be better, but the people using it would be considered racist.:o

Jeez, I know that. I heard a bunch of inner city kids being interviewed and some of them wanted to be pro footballers, hairdressers, pilots and one girl said she wanted to be a WAG.

I didn't write the first post...

And why are the ugliest girls in the world the ones who want to go into 'beauty'?

My name is URL · 05-09-2010 05:31PM

Why not? It's not a terribly low paying job once you're qualified.. and most of them do work on their own time too.. There's not many other occupations (where a high level of education isn't required) which gives you as good a prospect of being able to set up your own business after a few years either

What's the singular of WAGs?

If one girl aspires to Wagdom, she can't be 'girlfriends' plural. I deem his use of the term to be correct.

Pedantophiles. You gotta love 'em.
