SUCH SUBSTANCE: Romney discusses how he handles bad hair days (seriously)

In a Reader’s Digest interview Mitt Romney is asked about how he deals with a “bad day.” Romney responds by telling the interviewer how he deals with a “bad hair day.” I’m not making this up.


RD: Every leader, executive, every person wakes up some days and just has a bad day. Just can’t be happy or get pumped up. Do you have a trick or a strategy that you use to get your energy up? Do you have a theme song?

Romney: If I have a bad hair day, I just think, Well, it will be an OK hair day tomorrow. Just put your head down and go. Life is a bit like being on a roller coaster, which is, You get on and there’s no stopping along the way. There are some days when you feel like this is pretty tough, and there are the days that are exhilarating, but you just keep on going.

but he is, without exception, the most boring man on the face of the planet. He can cut steel by talking to it until it falls apart. He can stop wars just by speaking to the enemy until they fall asleep. He can execute the most hardened criminal by talking him to death. He is a superhero for no time--Boringman.

Don't look for his comics on newsstands. They're even more boring than he is.

My hair is ALWAYS a bad hair day, so I don't really have anything I can call worse. I just comb it back and sometimes throw it in a ponytail. The beard is a couple of used brillo pads held together with super glue, so it doesn't really count. But the damn mustache goes EVERYWHERE some mornings.

Still, it beats shaving.
