or, Overheard at the Barber Shop:

Patron [looking down at bib]: What the hell?

Barber: {snip snip snip}

Patron: Where did all these white hairs come from?

Barber: {snip snip snip}

Patron: Is that the sun bleaching my hair?

Barber: {snip snip snip}

Patron: I mean, it's the sun, right?  That can't be my hair turning white.

Barber: You want to know the truth?

Patron: Not when you put it like that.

Barber #2:  You're old, man.
