"You turn on your electric hair clipper..."
- You're Bald
You're Bald... (Bald-Is-Awesome!) is an Abnormality taking the form of a white orb with the Korean letter '머'/meo (as in, 대머리/'daemeoli', the Korean word for "bald") in its center, with the upper half of the orb being covered in black, which changes after its ability is used.
Ability[]
Its ability will trigger when a non-bald employee works with the Abnormality. At the end of the work, a flashing light will appear on the employee's head, making them bald. You're Bald will change its appearance, the black on its top half receding like thinning hair, and start to move a bit more. If another non-bald employee enters its containment room and finishes a work, the same flashing light will now appear on the heads of every agent and clerk in the employee's department, making them all bald. You're Bald will now be completely white. If a third non-bald employee finishes a work with You're Bald, the screen flashes bright white, making every agent and clerk in the facility bald. After this, or at the end of a day, the Abnormality returns to its initial appearance.
Regardless of whether they were bald upon hiring or became bald as a result of this Abnormality's ability, bald employees have the maximum Success Rate (95%) when working on You're Bald. There are no added effects other than the change in appearance to employees.
Origin[]
Although the details are a bit unclear, You're Bald is said to have appeared in the facility after an employee, who had an 'amazing dream' where all people became bald, had an "accident" involving the Singing Machine.
Details[]
You're Bald has no preferred work type, only caring whether the employee performing the work is bald or not. For non-bald employees, all work types have a 'Very Low' success rate; for bald employees, all work types have the maximum possible success rate.
Like all Abnormalities, its energy output is determined by the number of PE Boxes (Positive Enkephalin boxes) at the end of the interaction.
You're Bald's emotional state is divided into 3 sections: Bad, Normal, and Good. Completing 0-1 E Boxes will cause it to feel Distressed, completing 2-3 will cause it to feel Normal, and 4-6 will make it Happy. Its usual cooldown timer after a task is around 10 seconds.

Story[]
- "Warning: You have been hit by the baldy-bald psychological attack. If a non-bald person reads this, they’ll be granted the privilege to go bald at an extremely rapid pace. If one wants to stop this from happening, they must be assigned to work on this Abnormality. In addition, if you find 10 or more strands of hair on your pillow in the morning, it is recommended to peruse this encyclopedia article at least three times."
- "Bill: I had an amazing dream today!
- Brian: What, did you win the lottery or something?
- Bill: When I got to work, everyone here was bald! Everyone including you! Maybe even people outside of this corporation!
- Brian: Umm… I think you’ve been pretty stressed lately. Why don’t you go take counseling?
- Employee Bill suffered an unfortunate accident with Singing Machine that day. Right after the incident, Abnormality Bald-is-awesome! appeared in the facility. We all cherish the memories of Bald Bill."
- "If one comes in contact with the Abnormality, they will talk or write about the positive aspects of baldness for about an hour, and ultimately make themselves go bald.
- If you become bald, you can save time because you don’t have to wash and dry your hair anymore, allowing you to be richer than others.
- No adverse reactions will happen if a bald employee is assigned to work with the Abnormality.

- This Abnormality’s goal is to make every single human on Earth bald.
- We won’t need light bulbs in our facility if there are more bald employees, because light reflects off their heads. This will allow us to save a tremendous amount of our budget.

- Did you know that every single noble in Europe during the Middle Ages was bald? They’d change their wig everyday!"
- "We’ve just added some new rules to the company code of conduct:
- + If you ever spot a XXX mocking their coworker with alopecia areata, they will be labeled as a hirsute, and will be banned from using the lounge for an indefinite period.
- They will also be forbidden from joining the company’s debate club “Questioners of the absence of bald Barbies”, the gourmet meetup “Octopi over Squid”, and the environmental protection group “Save the Bald Eagles”. (These regulations will be lifted as soon as the rulebreaker’s hair strand count goes below 1.)
- Lastly, I dedicate this article to employee T.H. who is quietly taking balding medicine next to me right now."
