As if we need further proof that redheaded folks are smooth, savvy and otherwise generally awesome, one flame-haired fellow in Scotland is taking advantage of his coif’s color by flashing a homemade “Ginger Discount Card” to save on tabs at the bar, restaurants and anywhere he can buy stuff.
It all started when his body made the card for his 30th birthday as a joke, reports The Scotsman, laminating an orange piece of paper bearing his photo and the words “Ginger Discount Card.”
Figuring he might as well roll with the gag, he started trying to use it at local retailers, and was surprised to find many would slash his bill.

Good bargaining. True redheads should get discounts (freckles and reddish skin required).

[ Isn’t that theft or theft of services? ]
Yes it is, but the initial theft was that of brains fromthe PC brainwashed people who accept his fake “Ginger Race Discount” card....

Well ... heavy freckles only happen if the redhead is out in the sun a lot, because freckles are really just little tans where God splotched pigment on us, instead of smoothing it out real pretty like in black folks and swarthy Mediterranean types. I have a lot of 'em ... my shoulders and arms are leopard-like in a collage of freckles. When I was a saucy young coffee shop waitress, lecherous old farts would often give me the old line: "Hey there, young lady, if I gave you a dollar for every one of your freckles, would you let me count them?"
I'd say, "Mister, if I thought you had that much money, I just might!" {^)

Told my bride I’d kiss every one of her freckles ...
Still tryin’ ... I keep getting ...

distracted ...
To: Ray76
Wow. My hubby’s hair was that color when he was younger.
I need to tell him about this!
To: NorthMountain
And if she’s half the woman I bet she is, she still loves both of those things — the tryin’ and the gettin’ distracted!
