Kudos to CatWoman for pointing out that Imus has nappy hair himself!

[Catherine Vincent]

So I guess he and his producer thought it would be okay to call the basketball team nappy headed.

And yes, this is the 75th thread started about Imus, so bite me! :)

1. perm

:)

[Catherine Vincent]

4. You're joking?

Men get the perms? :wow:

[blogslut]

6. yes

I rolled up a few perms on men in my hairburner days. :)

Most of the time it was to disguise thinning hair, but not always.

[bleedingheart]

25. my uncle gets them to this day...

he liked the way he looked in curly hair...

and he had a thick mane of hair....it was quite groovy in the 70's...but today he keeps it permed but shorter...

[CatWoman]

2. ROFL!!!

:rofl:

:hi:

I just finished telling Tahiti Nut that I calls em like I sees em :rofl:

[ninkasi]

7. And that, CatWoman

is one of the many reasons you're so awesome! :hi: I can't begin to tell you how glad I am that we're on the same side.

3. That is an OLD photo. The guy is pushing 70 and he has gray, silken, babyfine hair. NT

[Catherine Vincent]

8. Yeah, I guess you're right.

Regardless, it looks awful most of the time like he doesn't comb it. He reminds me of that old creepy looking dude on the movie "Poltergeist". :)

[MADem]

9. He looks younger than he looks in real life in that photo...

14. Thanks! Is Imus off the wagon?

The way that he blows his mouth up like a balloon reminds me of drunks that I have known.

[MADem]

19. 29 plus years on the wagon, so he says. NT

[ChairmanAgnostic]

5. "I'm Imus, and I wanna be a ho"

I think he succeeded.

[durrrty libby]

10. So where did the phrase "nappy headed ho" come from?

Is that something Imus made up?

[blogslut]

12. His producer and he were discussing the Rutger's ladies basketball team

The producer brought up that they were "tough hos". Imus replied, "nappy headed hos". The producer went on to call the women "jiggaboo wannabes".

It was vile.

[Catherine Vincent]

15. How in the hell should I know?

I'm not a fan of Imus like you are.

[durrrty libby]

17. Well you have enough pictures of him. Fan or stalker?

"How in the hell should I know?"


Maybe you should learn the history of a phrase that so outrages you


BTW, I'm not a fan of Imus, just the many and varied guests


Remember, assumptions always make an ass out of you

[durrrty libby]

21. Oh really? Thank you so much for the edjumacation

[blogslut]

22. nice

have fun with that

[Catherine Vincent]

23. I googled two frigging pictures of that ass.

You should do us all a favor and stick to the "I love Imus" threads.

[durrrty libby]

24. You should do your mental health a favor and start with anger management rehab

11. Here he is in 1973

Before the "perm era"

[HysteryDiagnosis]

13. Imus to do the rest of the year in corn braids/dreadlocks, it would

be a vast improvement over that mop he calls a head of hair... truly it would.

[MADem]

20. Now THAT might be a great 'sentence' eh? NT

[shadowknows69]

16. Hell yeah

Imus has had a mad whitemanfro since probably puberty I imagine.
