tail of the swordsman

I don't know if I should laugh this one out. She called me Astroboy.
I've grown my hair long. She's aching to drag me to her salon for a haircut. But I like to grow my hair a bit long for a new look.
SHE: Fly away yung buhok mo sa nape.
It's not that I'm procrastinating. Just give me a few more days and then I'll see if it's a good idea.
She prefers to have it really really short because it's so neat-looking.
Astroboy?
Nah!
My name is Jack. Samurai Jack.
Astroboy, he's no match for my blade. And besides, he's got funny feet.

kids should know that...
Samurai Jack was an Emmy-award winning animated television series created by animator Genndy Tartakovsky that aired on August 10th, 2001 and ran for four seasons. Samurai Jack consistently shows an uncommon moral strength of character, always helping the poor and defenseless along the way, and sometimes even forgoing opportunities to defeat Aku to save or help just one person. His honor prevents him from leaving those who need him. Jack is willing to face incredible pain and turmoil to help those around him regardless of whether or not it matters in the greater context of time and space. (wikipedia)
