You need to hair!

Jeff and I, along with a small crowd of random people, are standing in a nice carpeted room inside a library, listening to a lecture. Jeff whispers to me that two girls in front of me are "really hot." I see that one of the girls he was referring to is very ugly, with boyish red hair. By reflex, I say, "EW" much too loud, such that the girls are able to hear.

Somehow the girl with red hair knew that "ew" was directed at her, so she becomes offended. She says it "brings back bad memories." I finally convince her that we were talking not about her, but about "eating food n' shit."

We all go out the building into the rain. There, the girl hugs her boyfriend. I am happy for her because I thought she considered herself ugly. The redhead then tells me that she used to be obese. I am happy to inform her that she is no longer fat or ugly at all (which is the truth, because in my dream her face was changed, and she was no longer the same ugly redhead I saw earlier).

Jeff and I start to make our way back towards the building. As I turn back to get a last glimpse of the girl, I see that the rain has thoroughly messed up her hair, transforming it into a great big puffy heart-shaped clump of hair on top of her head. It looks like an elaborate headdress. A nearby girl, in an effort to inform the redhead that she needs to fix her hair, points at the heart-shaped clump of hair and breaks out into a song in the tune of Numa Numa. She sings, perfectly, accompanied by perfect backbeat AND a backup singer, "You need to hair. You need to hair. You need to hair. You need to hair-hair." (the word "you" is on the pickup beat, or to be precise the 2nd beat, on the same musical pitch as "need." "Need" corresponds to the "my" syllable in the original song's "myah-hee." All other rhythm and music is identical to the original Numa Numa.)

I find this extremely hilarious and break down in laughter as I try to follow Jeff back into the library. "bahahahaha.... You need to hair!" I quote, laughing my ass off. Jeff does not find this amusing at all, and is already inside the library. I wake up feeling very amused.
