The Mysterious Hair Pile
This morning I actually got to work early, ready to write about how I became involved in human trafficking. But when I arrived, I found a pile of hair sitting on my desk.
This beats the cryptic and terrifying note I once received from a student. It simply read: “I hope you like things that burn.”
I’m afraid to ask how this hair pile landed on my desk. Any theories?

It was my 25th wedding anniversary and my redhead and I wanted to try something new. Sorry for the mess.

Last words of person leaving that tuft: “Look, Ma — no hands !”

Sounds like a hairy situation. I will get back to you later with instructions.

At first glance, I thought it was the Star Trek episode, “the Trouble With Tribbles.”

Student with a hair ball. Your desk was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

You hate cake? But like cake doughnuts? The donut gods have left a symbol of their displeasure on your desk. That’s my theory.

Maybe it’s a pile of shaved pubes left by your missing boyfriend. Perhaps he is frolicking around, leaving you treats here and there.

It’s toupee-squezzin’s! Hope you can find it in your heart to donate the tuft to locks-of-love…

Maybe the kids are taking up a collection for Locks of Love and they want you to be the hair-keeper?

Somebody LOVES you!

Somewhere there’s a Wookie with a bad mohawk running around feeling lucky….

Normally I would say it is a term of endearment, but considering you’re a teacher…I’m not so sure.
Its funny because it reminds me of (oh wait, I’m going to save the rest of this comment for one of my own posts..)

I think those little rascals are hinting at another lesson on pi, or perhaps it is a simple case of hairassment .

Do you work at a barber school? Because if so, I think the answer isn’t too terrible.

I know that keeping a small part of someone’s body leavin’s (hair, toenails, molars) can be a sign of endearment, but does it count when it’s presented to you? I mean, sure I gave one of my teeth to a boy I had a crush on, but I already knew he wanted it. And he gave me a dreadlock in return. Hmmm. If you see any teeth on your desk, let me know and I’ll tell you where he lives.

Who knows why this pile was left for you … perhaps a vodoo doll not yet completed?

that’s really scary andrea. REALLY scary.

I’d say a giant cat got into the place. But then there are always people wanting to knit hair into sweaters like knitting from wool and will frequently use this said excuse to not vacuum, even if their vacuum is a sucky Volta model from the 90’s.
