A friend and I have decided we did so many cool things in college and grad schools that to shock and disgust us our kids are going to grow their armpit hair out and braid it, and string little bells on it. That’s the only thing we could think of that we thought was as gross and disturbing as our parents thought our hair and tattoos and piercings were.
