Cyclists with large heads and/or abundant hair please recommend me bike helmets. I have both a large head and an abundance of hair.

It'll probably depend on the shape of your head: my large but long and narrow head fits quite well in a POC helmet.

It works best if you go in to try them on”

That is a person with period appropriate makeup.

So much of the humor for me comes from the question I posed though… is that basically a wig and a helmet? Is that mannequin bald?

Your suggestion was, in summary, “look at the sizes and try them on in the store” do you not hear how fucking condescending that is as a reply? You truly believe that I asked the question without ever having walked in to a store? You think *I* insist on being an ass after reading your half of our exchange? You’re telling *me* to fuck off but you, dear, are the one replying to me. I *told* you I have time today. I will make clear your nonsense.

Did I piss in your cereal this morning? Do I remind you of an ex? Is this you awkwardly flirting? Why are you HERE? The basic premise of my original toot really does imply that, for me, it has not been as simple as “Walk in to store. Ask for large helmet. Try helmets. Buy helmet.” That you failed to infer as much is—I promise you—about you, not some basic failing of mine. I am happy that your helmet buying experiences have been smooth. Truly.

This is an unhelpful response. I would venture a guess that you have neither a big head nor an abundance of hair based on this response. 1 star.
