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

Looks like a bee stung her lip.

[–] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 14 points 6 months ago (3 children)

My friend describes plastic surgery as grabbing the back of the face and stretching it really tight then using a baggie clip to hold it there Like that one episode of the Simpsons where Homer lost a ton of weight and had to deal with the stretched skin

[–] SteefLem@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

Thats basicly what they do with a face lift

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

[–] mean_bean279@lemmy.world 39 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Duranie@literature.cafe 14 points 6 months ago

I have very strong, mixed feelings about your post.

Well done mother fucker!

[–] Donjuanme@lemmy.world 7 points 6 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@lemmy.world 9 points 6 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@lemmy.world 15 points 6 months ago

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

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.

[–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 8 points 6 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.

Billionaire: gimme the friar cut

Barber: got you fam

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

[–] 667@lemmy.radio 18 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

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

But fr tho that hair is wrecked

[–] Beardsley@lemmy.world 17 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 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

[–] WaxedWookie@lemmy.world 18 points 6 months ago

That's some reeeal old money phrenology.

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

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

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

[–] TJDetweiler@lemmy.ca 16 points 6 months ago (11 children)

So are we only standing up against body shaming for ugly people? We're okay shitting on attractive people that might have had cosmetic work done? Are we a bunch of hypocrites that stand for nothing and only react when our own feelings are hurt?

Boo Lemmy. Y'all can do better.

[–] alekwithak@lemmy.world 14 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (4 children)

The rule is not to punch down. When someone is a billionaire nothing* is off the table.

Yeah, why does humor exist anyway 🤔...

Mu real concern is that you have more upvotes than downvotes.

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@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago (4 children)

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

They look like terrible plastic caricatures of humanity

[–] AFC1886VCC@reddthat.com 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] Zannsolo@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Not me, she paid money to make her face look like THAT, GROSS. No way I would want to date someone that was so modded up, I'm sure her personality doesn't reflect it AT ALL. Not saying single me wouldn't have open to a hookup but I could never be in a relationship with someone that vain.

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

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 8 points 6 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.
