How would you go about persuading someone to shave an arm ?

[Easy 10]

If you had to persuade a complete stranger to let you shave all the hairs off one or both of their forearms, how would you go about it ?

I think I would firstly try appealing to their sense of vanity, and suggest to them that they'll get a much better, more even tan on a bald arm than they would if there were hairs in the way. If that didn't work then I'd try a health and fitness approach, and tell them that a more streamlined forearm will create less drag (if they are jogging, or out having a brisk walk for example), and would allow the skin to breathe. Failing that, I would have to try to think of a tangible use for the shaved hairs, but other than forming them into a miniature duster for a keyboard (not a GREAT selling point I grant you), I havn't really managed to come up with one yet.

Its been driving me mad, this one.

Thats not persuasion though Lokki. It has to be persuasion.

"I think you would look less of a c**t if you shaved one of your forearms" Works for me every time.

The direct approach. I like it.

I think you'll find they will be easily persuaded afterwards.

I'm sorry, but the person being unconcious while you shave their arm doesn't fall under the persuasion bracket, whatever way you slice (or shave) it.

How about buttering them up with a light trim first, just around the wrists. See if they're ok with that before going the whole hog.

Semantics.

And you won't look like a c**t at all if you let me shave both your arms.

You could "accidentally" spill hair dye on their arms, maybe a comical green colour. They'd be BEGGING you to shave their arms then.

Okay, where can I sign up for this?

Easy10, you could hack their arm off swiftly with a machete, then shave it at your own leisure,

I've been thinking about doing this for YEARS, Easy.

You've finally persuaded me to shave my left arm. Obviously, being right handed, I have to leave the other arm untouched.

Unfortunately the finished job now looks plain stupid. And the rash ... why didn't you mention the risk of a rash?








Bastard.
