He's not going bald; it just takes him longer to wash his face

My favorite magazine, THE NEW YORKER, runs small stories at the bottom of columns, with funny police stories ("Constabulary notes from all over") and my favorite, "There will always be an England."  That's where they showcase bits of life in the UK, such as this.  It didn't happen in England per se, but it was in South Wales where Jermaine Taylor, aged 21, from Newport, violated his parole.

He just got out of prison in December, but he just could not behave. 

The Gwent Police Dept (South Wales) took to Facebook to ask for help from anyone who might have seen Taylor.

I tell you, if you had seen him, you wouldn't forget it.

The picture is below:

Taylor had been sent up for a three-year bid in September of 2018, having been convicted of supplying drugs - specifically, cocaine.

The story I read does not say whether they got any worthwhile tips as to Taylor's whereabouts, or if he were ever rounded up.

But the police had to go back on Facebook, after the picture garnered 13,000+ shares, 10,000+ likes, and more than 81,000 comments, and ask that people stick to the topic of finding a bad guy.

Most of the comments were jabs at Taylor's rapidly expanding forehead:

"Looks like his hairline is on the run too," said Nick Sleek Meek.

Callum Duff said: "His hairline goes back further than my family tree."

and so on, until the police had to warn people not to break the law about a lawbreaker:

"Please remember that harassing, threatening and abusing people on social media can be against the law. Our advice is to be as careful on social media as you would in any other form of communication," police wrote. "If you say something about someone which is grossly offensive or is of an indecent, obscene or menacing character, then you could be investigated by the police."

So there you have it. No one is safe on Facebook, even a hardened crook on the run. The jokes about Taylor's hair were wearing thin, just like...his hair. And when someone told him his balding noggin looked like a hairy light bulb, he was incandescent with rage.
