Astounded by mullets?

I'm on holiday at a very British all inclusive abroad type holiday destination. It's all new to me, I've never had this type of holiday before. I'm astounded by the huge average BMI and lack of clothing of the majority of guests. The entitled poor manners is shameful. One man I was behind in the queue to the bar was aggressive with staff over their lack of understanding of his instruction of "no ice" but the issue was he was too drunk to understand there were 2 bar staff and he thought there was only one. I'm getting used to all of this poor behaviour but what has surprised me the most is the 3 generation family who all have matching mullet hair styles. That's male and female. I've never seen anything like it in real life in the 2000s. AIBU to find this all very unusual?

I thought they were called SHULLETS Confused

A cross between a shag and a mullet

The funny but is the OP decided to go on this holiday. So they has plenty in common with all the scummy people the OP doesn't want to be on holiday with. That's the issue - they remind the OP of something... themselves.

Was it very painful- that sense of humour bypass surgery?
Im Irish and regularly have a giggle at paddy and mick jokes, still not all of us can laugh at ourselves I guess. Seriously, unclench.

I think they perhaps missed the reference!

Mullets are everywhere, have been for a while now. I’m a lecturer so spend a lot of time around teens/people in their early 20s and I’d say there’s at least one person rocking a mullet in each lecture.

Aaah yes that’s possible - I tend to forget how old I am!

Did they travel in shell suits? Do they keep saying “calm down calm down” ? Do they have scouse accents?

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

There is an adorable slightly-bigger-than-toddler-sized child with a mullet, who is a regular visitor to the library not a million miles from Shoreditch. So cute!
