PoTD: HOW MANY OF THOSE SWIRLS DO YOU HAVE IN YOUR HAIR

[The Hand That Fisted Everyone]

two.

[Sam]

yes, a cowlick
but i dislike that term

A callick isn't the swirl in your hair. it's when a chunk of hair grown ina  direction different than the rest of your hair. Like a random spot where the hair stands up no matter what because it's growing that way. You know?

I answered 0 because my hair is too long for me to figure out where a swirl would be even if I had one. I'm sure I do, I just can't see it.

alright fine you win

In Japanese culture, cowlicks, called giri-giri, are often a sign of if one is a rascal or not. One cowlick means the person is well-behaved, but two or more cowlicks indicate that the person is being naughty or a rascal. Literally, "giri giri" means "at the last second" or "in the nick of time." The Japanese word for cowlick is "Tsumuji" and it is believed that a person with many tsumuji is likely to be a genius.
