Hair boy is a junior faculty member of our department who uses ken-doll good looks and blow-dried hair to charm his way out of teaching service courses. Hair boy is a shameless self-promoter who will do anything to add a line to his CV, including stealing ideas from his masters-student advisees. I think hair boy's charisma will get him tenure, even though his scholarship is mediocre.

Junior faculty members can use their looks to get out of teaching service courses? No way!
I know several of these guys. We always called them "golden boys". I could go on and on about the wonderful things that have happened to them career-wise (without any publications, no less) but it just gets me too depressed.
