Groomed Unibrow? What an Oxymoron

frida-unibrowAight so I was on the public bus minding my own business, as I always… (you know what? I can’t even finish that. I was being my usual nosy self), when foolish ish met me. Some dude got on the bus, with a GROOMED UNIBROW. Now, if that ain’t an oxymoron, then I don’t know what is. Having a groomed unibrow is like…

  • Having neatly scuffed shoes
  • Wearing a tie dyed shirt… under a wrinkled suit… to a classy event
  • Graduating from college with a 2.01 GPA
  • Getting a haircut with no lining
  • Being pregnant with 6-pack abs
  • Seeing white folks in weather-appropriate attire
  • Having an event with my beloved African people, where everyone comes on time

Basically, the groomed unibrow is something I don’t expect to see, especially when people with unibrows have them despite their opportunities to groom. Therefore, the groomed uni lacks logic. Threw me for a loop. His unibrow is something Frida would have been jealous of, with a perfect V that looked perfectly thought out. I think I stared at him the whole time we were on the bus together.

I can only imagine what my look said, but I can guess it was 1/2 perplexed, 1/4 mixture of basic, plain, and GENERAL with a quarter side of minor squinting to make sure my slanted eyes weren’t deceiving me.

If only I could have taken a pic of it… you know, if I wasn’t afraid he’d whoop my ass.

    What, you mean scarves in the middle of summer isn’t weather appropiate? But when will I wear them…when it’s cold outside? That doesn’t make sense, the scarves will clash with the flip flops.

    LMBO!! U are a fool, groomed uni’s are not the biz! White people wear wool and leather in the summer, shorts and tees in the winter. It is like expecting a mexican/spanish little gurl to show up at the mall in Blue Jeans…. it aint gonna happen. That baby is gonna show up at the mall or grocery store in a full baptismal dress white patent leather shoes, and those cute lili lace socks!

    Basically MINDLESS, U are a plump ignant ijot!! Rude… Although, this is my fav blog thus far….and dude is a repulsive mind blowing moron!!! Who grooms their unibrow and better yet, what shop allowed this. Their license should be revoked and their store put on blast so everyone will know that only foolishness occurs at such places…..

    Hey Luvvie, this is the first time I’ve been here and I’m loving it. Oxymoronic occurences like a groomed unibrow are the kid of things that make you think that you’re seeing wrong. Don’t blame you if you’re still squinting.

    Japanese cherry blossom…isn’t that the tree that smells like “man stuff”? That’s pretty gross, and funny. Great entry. Applauding you from Starbucks…and I don’t even drink the coffee here.
