  • Beard every fucking time. I recently made the mistake of shaving mine off after maybe 5 years and barely recognise the face looking back at me in the mirror. The beard is coming straight back, and this time it's going to be a great big bush. I'm gonna grow a beard fit for a Spartan and push people down dirty great holes. It's gonna look like the Amazon has been uprooted and landed on my face

    Seriously though I honestly feel the process was emasculating and confidence draining. I'm like Samson after the bitch Delilah did the dirty on him.

    If you have a beard keep it, if you don't have one, get one

  • Spartans were famously scrupulous about full body waxes and shaved chins...
    How the fuck did I know that

  • I looked like a mentally ill tramp when I grew one. Great big grey patches on either side of my chin that, from a distance, looked like holes in the beard. Got a picture of me and my teenage nephew when I had a beard and frankly it's like something off Crimewatch. Never again.

  • On the other hand, If a beard is good enough for Tom Cruise...

  • no wonder that girl wasn't interested..

    weirdy beardy!

  • Mentally ill trampist!

  • Ever seen The Front, a film about McCarthyism starring Woody Allen as a beard for Hollywood film writers?

  • Jimmy Fingers outed: Dave Lee Travis...

  • One of John Peel's most familiar stories was of when he shaved his beard and the face staring back at him was a "cross between my mother and Mussolini".

  • Ever seen The Front, a film about McCarthyism starring Woody Allen as a beard for Hollywood film writers?

    About the last halfway decent film he made, IIRR...

  • no wonder that girl wasn't interested..

    weirdy beardy!

    That did have something to do with the reasoning behind it. That I was curious to see what my face looks like. At least I got that out my system. Bird or beard? BEARD!

    And I was referencing the 300 filum, so apologies for the historical inaccuracies. I shall be riding the bike in nowt but a loin cloth too

  • About the last halfway decent film he made, IIRR...

    making me fucking google acronyms, grumble, overgrown teenagers, can't fucking rite proper anymore, fucking grumble

  • whatever happened with that girl anyway?

  • I looked like a mentally ill tramp when I grew one. Great big grey patches on either side of my chin that, from a distance, looked like holes in the beard. Got a picture of me and my teenage nephew when I had a beard and frankly it's like something off Crimewatch. Never again.

    Grey not yet a problem, ginger is. Hair is a very dark brown, eyes hazel, but a distinct coppery hue to the beard. Riddle me that one batman

    Anyway, just get yourself some

    and join the ranks

  • One of John Peel's most familiar stories was of when he shaved his beard and the face staring back at him was a "cross between my mother and Mussolini".

    Following your recent, 'famous people who have told me off' list; I give you: 'Posthumously near-canonised lazy DJs who were in fact well pervy and tried to fuck my 19-year-old girlfriend when I was in my first year at Uni.'
    1) John Peel.

    Actually, fair play to him, at least he hadn't given up on life...

    EDIT: He has now... ;-D

  • One of John Peel's most familiar stories was of when he shaved his beard and the face staring back at him was a "cross between my mother and Mussolini".

    Seriously I know what its like to have a car crash, have reconstructive surgery and wake up to look at a face you don't recognise

    Actually I have no idea whatsoever what that's like, but it just doesn't look like my face

    as for the girl, she simply never replied. I did call her and no answer so number has been deleted. Only knew her five minutes and fell pretty hard. Still lessons learnt and all that

  • My brother shaved his beard after a boozy lunch (we made him, family pressure and all). My sister in law had only known him with a beard, she hid her tears afterwards. My niece just stared at him, she kept repeating "I've got a new dad"....
    The beard grew back.

  • beard are great, the only problem is that there's some people who can't grow a beard properly (tuff of hair in sporadic place around the bottom part of your face so to speak.

    I shaved my beard off recently after having them since I was 17, needless to says I look like I'm 15 after I lobbed it off (I'm 23), and not surprisingly enough people seemed to respect me less.

    and God it was so cold! I've missed the warmt of my beard!

  • ^bless...^

  • On the subject of facial hair, anyone growing a soup strainer for Movember ?

  • Beards are for lazy people who can't be bothered to shave.

    I'm mighty lazy with a razor 6 wet shaves in 10 years.

  • Grey not yet a problem, ginger is.

    Not a problem in my book.
    Been sporting a ginger beard for a good 8 years or so. But then my collars and cuffs match.

  • I'm of the ginger beard persuasion as well. Dirty blonde on top (what's left) though.

    And, obviously, beards are awesome.

  • Beards = right on.
