First time ever; hair hairstylist offered to do it. I will ask my wife if anything looks different about this cut.

if you bet before I get home at 3 PM Eastern, it will be a true, honest to God prediction! On the assumption that not many people will see this in time, I'm leaving it open for a week before I reveal the outcome. Obviously I won't bet.

Not only did gently increasing prompting fail, she explicitly said they didn’t look different when I told her directly!

I’m 99% sure I felt a eyebrow hair fall on my cheeks while the stylist was trimming, so it wasn’t a total scam, but we now have a hard data point on the (in)effectiveness of this aesthetic intervention.

Now there are two reasons it would be a dumb EA cause area!

Oh and the biggest thing I learned is that this market i idea-to-execution-ed while walking home was more successful than all my others combined. I think people like tangible, relatable, and quick-to-resolve.

I’m hoping to do some more intentional experiments via Manifold, with enough forethought to get feedback on the design.

predicted YES

@MatthewRitter no disrespect but your wife is pissin me off here! i just lost 55mana!!!!

But will you raise and lower your eyebrows as you ask the question?

Extremely important clarification: my eyebrows also looked perfectly nice beforehand, thank you very much
