This is a great clip for Alan. He's right on the mark, and pretty sharp about it too!

Part of the amazing experience of being a teenager is the fact that we don't have many responsibilities during that age. Everything is provided to us; no need for a job, to cook, clean, pay bills, etc. If we were thrust out into the world after elementary school, I reckon we'd skip the teenage stage of life and go straight into adulthood.

With copious amounts of alcohol, I find that remaining in the teenager mindset is very much achievable. I'm 33 and still a 16 year old brat!

@TheyreAllAmazing People in general are afraid of being "different" - And in their minds, not shaving the pits is quite different indeed. Hence you see these mainstream-lot who're wandering about as a zombie-like creature, who'll mimic eachother, making sure they're not unique or 'differen't because that will only be a way for others to pick on them of being different ;). I agree with you, if the ladies prefer not to shave - let em', hahah.

What the fuck is with all of these wankers getting in an uproar over some chick who doesn't want to shave her pits? That's her bloody choice. There's nothing gross about it, so stop being such narrow-minded sods. Also, for the men out there getting their knickers in a knot about this who have never been shamed into shaving their own pits, go piss on an electric fence.
