Three girls are at the front of the bus, talking to the driver.

(Balding) Driver: I had to wash my hair last night.
Girl 1: Wash your hair?
Girl 2: What do you do? Just scrape your head?
Driver: No! With shampoo and conditioner and everything. My head’s as smooth as a baby’s bum.
Girl 1: Well I’m sure that’s not right. I don’t think babies’ bums have bristles.

I was looking through a magazine with a friend. There was an AIDS campaign advert with different celebs in it.
