A Close Call

I was walking to the train station yesterday when I saw a man with a wire coming out of the back of his shirt, up his neck and disappearing somewhere beneath his hair plugging (presumably) into the back of his head. Hello, I thought, an android. Or perhaps a cybernetically enhanced human. Now I’ll have to fight him. Just what I need on a weary Thursday afternoon. I readied myself for this battle against the metal creature from the future, preparing tactics to combat the morphing abilities and advanced data read-outs and weaponry to which he would no doubt have access and then, just before I threw the first punch, I realised that it wasn’t a wire at all, but a tiny grouping of hair running down his neck and what I thought was the plug-in bit on the wire was in fact a very tightly wound tie-up thing to keep those thin little strands of hair in place. So, of course, I punched him anyway.
