It usually went like this:

Parents: When are you going to cut your hair?
Endless Soul: Why would I do that?
Parents: Because only bad people grow their hair long
Endless Soul: ~points at the picture of Jesus hanging on the wall~ Well Jesus had long hair, and yet you think he's a good guy (I can't believe I actually used the "Jesus had long hair" argument)
Parents: Yes...well..that's different!

It usually went on and on, with me countering their every argument. I wasn't scoring any points with them, but Niffer always seemed to be snickering in the background.
