I am somewhat embarrassed to admit I already knew what a merkin was. I learned it as a teenager reading John Varley’s “The Barbie Murders.”

Somethings, you just don’t want to see.

Where I come from, ‘hair extension’ means just skipping a haircut for an extra few weeks…
Just looked up ‘merkin’. Eeww.
