Hexagons are the bestagons, after all

[–] ThrowawayPermanente@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They tesselate so fucking hard

Hexalo Bill: I'd tesselate me. I'd tesselate me so hard.

Came here to say: Hexagon bestagon.

Did someone say something about hexagons in here?

A football is made from hexagons and pentagons. The dude in the picture is all hexagons.

While hexagons are bestagons on a 2d plane, they don't really fold well over inflated 3d space.

I'm impressed that the barber solved that on a ball shaped head anyway.

I like the cut of your jib

[–] abfarid@startrek.website 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

His haircut misses the pentagons though. Not regulation haircut.

[–] Tlaloc_Temporal@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

It's as bad as England's football signs!

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 month ago

Am I the only person that thinks this really isn't bad at all? I like the style. I have seen some absolutely wack haircuts in my time and this one, I think this one is not only not bad, but is actually good.

Barber: I put a hex on you

[–] 10_0@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Its meant to be a football but ok

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Footballs don't have just hexagons 😤

Saving this stand-up mathematician angry about balls on street signs for later.

Also, a little tracker delete for you.

Reiner Knizia haircut

[–] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I always wondered do people go to the barber weekly?

I mean that style would get shaggy quick?

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

There are a lot of people who do, yes. Especially people who are public figures, with high pay.

[–] troyunrau@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

Can't see the back, so maybe they used pentagons there to make it work. From this angle though, it's quite nicely done actually.

Galapagos Tortoise shellmet.
