― vacuum cleaner (electricsound), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Markelby - no. It will suck the youth out of your face.

How did anybody ever understand one word I typed back in '01?

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Markelby - let's have a race!

Why 19 days?

My beard is a curious ginger colour.

leet, so's mine. i'm part tabby, obv.

― g-kit (g-kit), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:22 (eighteen years ago) link

I like beards. Matt's is flourishing these days. Not sure about beards with bald heads though, all unbalanced. So, no.

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:24 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm thinking about ditching mine. I will canvass lady opinion first though.

― Tag (Tag), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:25 (eighteen years ago) link

Peter, Sgs gets back from the US in 19 days time and she does NOT like beards :)

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:26 (eighteen years ago) link

everyone always says "oh, my girlfriend hates beards, i'm not allowed one" or "i want to know what teh laydeez think of beards lol" and stuff.
which always makes me ask one question: what the fuck to ladies know about beards?

logic, innit?

― g-kit (g-kit), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:29 (eighteen years ago) link

YES.

― toby (tsg20), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:32 (eighteen years ago) link

Well, I'm all for men making their own facial hair choices, but on the other hand g-kit it should be remembered that the ladies closest to the man in question will most likely have his face in close proximity to her own and probably to other body parts too. So she does get SOME say.

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:34 (eighteen years ago) link

If anyone else likes it, it's a bonus...

― Tag (Tag), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:36 (eighteen years ago) link

aye, i'm only kidding.
but without going into any detail, oh no, i never demand that any ladies shave... anything.. that... i might... put.. stuff... near...

k thx bye

― g-kit (g-kit), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:44 (eighteen years ago) link

I am glad the pendulum of opinion seems to be swinging back in favour of the noble BEARD.

― Tom (Groke), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:46 (eighteen years ago) link

i feel like i have been rescued.

― g-kit (g-kit), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:47 (eighteen years ago) link

Haha! Well, it's not a case of demand so much as 'have a discussion over something that affects both parties'. Like having kids. Er.

― Archel (Archel), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:50 (eighteen years ago) link

yay for the beard. mine is a joke at the moment, and may require some grooming.

― Ste (Fuzzy), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:52 (eighteen years ago) link

i have a can of worms right here, but i'm just gonna throw it in the trash.

there, all gone.

― g-kit (g-kit), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:52 (eighteen years ago) link

> i have a can of worms right here

As a beard? What are you, a gorgon?

― Tag (Tag), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Markelby, my encouragement was intended for a BEARD FOR LIFE, not until 'er indoors gets home. She'll get used to it! She's only afraid of the excess masculinity it deontes.

Tag, grow it long and wild.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:54 (eighteen years ago) link

Anything to stop the Anthony Worrell-Thompson comparisons.

― Tag (Tag), Thursday, 13 October 2005 11:56 (eighteen years ago) link

I am contemplating beard removal. You can have mine if you like.

― aldo_cowpat (aldo_cowpat), Thursday, 13 October 2005 12:03 (eighteen years ago) link

Shave your head, Tagsworth.

― Markelby (Mark C), Thursday, 13 October 2005 12:17 (eighteen years ago) link

AND DESTROY MY LUSTROUS GOLDEN LOCKS??? I will do no such thing!

― Tag (Tag), Thursday, 13 October 2005 12:28 (eighteen years ago) link

i already have a week's growth right here. is that cheating?

― g-kit (g-kit), Thursday, 13 October 2005 12:47 (eighteen years ago) link

wow i shaved mine all off

― Ste (Fuzzy), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:19 (eighteen years ago) link

i did eventually grew a beard

but now i go entirely hairless

― strng hlkngtn: what does it mean? (dubplatestyle), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:20 (eighteen years ago) link

markelby, grow a MOUSTACHE. they're cool.

(even though mine is now long gone.)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:38 (eighteen years ago) link

It would take me, based on careful analysis of family patterns, approximately 3.4 years to grow a beard. Unfortunate un-hairy genetic combo to blame.

― The Obligatory Sourpuss (Begs2Differ), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:48 (eighteen years ago) link

Yes, Markelby. The Peacock Johnson look is just right for you!

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:51 (eighteen years ago) link

it took a surprisingly long time for my beard to grow in to any satisfaction, especially considering what a thicket the rest of my body is

― strng hlkngtn: what does it mean? (dubplatestyle), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:52 (eighteen years ago) link

T- six months until my beard comes off. Three years will be enough. I'd shave it now, but it's nice to have a beard in the winter.

― Pleasant Plains /// (Pleasant Plains ///), Friday, 14 October 2005 13:58 (eighteen years ago) link

I am planning to grow the second annual Beard of Winter.

― Jordan (Jordan), Friday, 14 October 2005 14:13 (eighteen years ago) link

Mark, we'll be able to make a more informed decision if you draw a beard on with permanent marker so we can see what it would look like.

― Mädchen (Madchen), Friday, 14 October 2005 14:56 (eighteen years ago) link

There you go:

i want to grow a beard but apparently puberty hasn't yet set in for me at 30. actually its settled on my chest.

― bingo (Chris V), Friday, 14 October 2005 15:44 (eighteen years ago) link

Don't bother growing a beard. You'll look like a lego pirate with the hat missing :)

― jel -- (jel), Friday, 14 October 2005 15:46 (eighteen years ago) link

that picture is getting a lot of mileage today! (xp)

an ex had a stubbly beard, and now when i see corny indie fuxors in half profile with stubbly beards, i think this is sexy. individuals conditioning our sense of what's sexy, c or d?

― carly (carly), Friday, 14 October 2005 15:46 (eighteen years ago) link

i want a zz top beard.

― bingo (Chris V), Friday, 14 October 2005 15:46 (eighteen years ago) link

You gonna scalp them Bingo?

― g-kit (g-kit), Friday, 28 October 2005 09:20 (eighteen years ago) link

Is that ginger?

I am jess in the first post, not shaved for a week and thus I have a "beard".

― knife (nordicskilla), Friday, 28 October 2005 15:23 (eighteen years ago) link

How does one trim a beard, and trim it well?

― knife (nordicskilla), Friday, 28 October 2005 15:24 (eighteen years ago) link

buy a beard trimmer and practice practice practice

alternately, go to a bro salon

― strongo hulkington's ghost (dubplatestyle), Friday, 28 October 2005 15:27 (eighteen years ago) link

i am seriously considering growing one again

― strongo hulkington's ghost (dubplatestyle), Friday, 28 October 2005 15:27 (eighteen years ago) link

I have done a 180 on this subject and think that everyone should go the grizzly adams route.

― So so Krispie (Ex Leon), Friday, 28 October 2005 15:27 (eighteen years ago) link

awwww, thanks for picking me as your gold standard.

― F.R.I.E.N.D. (nordicskilla), Friday, 28 October 2005 15:29 (eighteen years ago) link
