bald jokes
Chrome dome teasing
Bald jokes are humor targeting hair loss, typically male pattern baldness.
The jokes range from gentle teasing among friends to mean-spirited mockery: He's heard every bald joke in the book.
Common formats include comparisons to shiny objects, references to cue balls, or wordplay on "hair" and "bare." Like most appearance-based humor, reception depends heavily on the target's comfort level.
