Title: BILLY MAYS HERE INTRODUCING A NEW PRODUCT!

Part of me thinks people love celebrity deaths so they can hear amazing (and probably unsurprising) shit like this.

What gets me when a celeb dies is how much crap they are on.

My parents are self insured and a couple years ago, when they were getting new health insurance, the agent informed them that they had failed to fill out part of the application - the part listing which medications they are on.

They were all like, "WTF?  We aren't on any medications, so we left it blank!"

I thought he was a stereotypical in-the-closet homosexual. His beard was too well trimmed.

I dunno, I chalk beards up to 3 reasons, in no particular order:

1. Weak Chin
2. Gay
3. Lazy (but in this case, beard will not be neatly trimmed)

I freely admit that's why I have a goatee.

Hey, that's cool.  My hair is prematurely gray and I dyed it for 10 years, but I always admitted to being gray and dying it.

It definitely is if one falls in the Christopher Lowell/Billy Mays school of beards.


Also, well trimmed staches are gay. Unrelated Trivia: The actual model for those Brawny logos was Rock Hudson's lover.

4. You look too damn young without it. 

I have a baby face. I look to be about 10 years younger than I am without my beard, and people treated me noticeably differently after I grew it out.

He does. It's a very well trimmed white beard. He also lacks a weak chin. Therefore, he loves the cock.

I don't have a weak chin and I don't look young, I just look good with a beard.

I don't mind scruffy but I've never liked the look of facial hair.  Even when I was very young, even when my father had a beard - which was a lot.  I didn't like God or Santa Claus because of it.

It is a bonus that you look cute with it.  :awesome_for_real:

I like facial hair on dudes if it's well groomed. When I was a very young child, though, I was petrified of men with beards. I have NO idea why. Mustaches were fine (which is good 'cause my Dad has had one almost my entire life), but beards = screaming Sjofn.

No men in my family have facial hair- not one cousin, brother, or uncle.  And I am 100% confident I will never have it, unless I'm a burn victim or something.

5. It's natural.

You don't mock people who don't shave their heads for being lazy, gay, or having an odd shaped head? Silly societal rules ftl.

Post by: Hindenburg on August 10, 2009, 02:18:02 PM
Sky, neatly trimmed beards.  NEATLY TRIMMED. You do not qualify.

Also, yes, we mock people who don't have a proper haircut. We might not do it to their face, but inside? Totally mocking.

I don't even try to grow facial hair anymore. It's patchy at best. Even my sideburns grow out as "normal hair" (err, I guess that's considered feminine, but it's usual in East Asians).

It's not even possible to neatly trim my beard.

Just to clarify.  I might not care for the look of full beards, but I don't really care that much, either.  I still consider all you weirdy beardies my friends and I enjoy the opportunity to mock your faces!  Thank you.

Rupert Murdoch believed this. He used to tell employees at News International in London that they could either come back tomorrow without facial hair or pack their bags. Because he wasn't really allowed to sack people for being gay, his claim was that people with facial hair or dark glasses are hiding something. Oh, and brown shoes were unacceptable too because only gay people hiding something wore them.

Same, it's really annoying to have sideburns like my mother or something.

And hair stylists hardly even know what to do with them, since there's such an abrupt stop between my beard and sideburns.

You like that feature? I can write a search engine in one line of perl that will protect you even more.
