Xbox update online

I'm out Tuesday. Just a reminder that the dashboard for the 360 has been updated. It's a pretty quick update, but you might want to log in ahead of time for about 10 minutes (anytime before Tues) and poke around it a bit. Most of the stuff they added seems to be fluff - but I'm a sucker for creating a "realistic" avatar of myself.

Okay, i did the update. I do NOT like how all the avatars run like toddlers with a load in their rompers. I did Shawn's "realistic version", but now I'm going back to do it FOR REAL.

I am outraged at the lack of avatar hairstyle customization! I demand more nuance in the "baldness" categories to express my individuality! For example, the uniquely awkward "thinning swath down the center of the head, but thick & wooly at the sides" is nowhere to be found. And WHERE is unfortunate peninsula of hair at the widow's peak? There are 15 varieties of "Beatles-sey" mod cuts for Shawn to tweak his realistic version of self, while I must languish in the 1 style of "Hairline: Receded."

Siting this lack of options I am protesting with my personal fantasy-do: cornrows! with designer glasses. Neither of which I wear. Bit I don't have my teeth filed to points either. Screw you for judging me!

Of all the genetic cards I've been dealt - most of which even a fine poker player would discard in favor of a new draw - I'm glad the hair is (for now) sticking with me. I still have acne though. Let me emphasize. I'm a 37 year old man, who still has to deal with fucking pimples!
