Yesterday I passed a barbershop and saw ads on their wall outside of men with beards and short hair. It is a revival or saving electricity ?
Again?
Hides my fat face.
I’m a unix-guru.
If I were to shave I’d get a -5 penalty on my bash magic.
If I skip showers for a month I can interface directly with any device in /dev
What do you mean men are growing beards “again”? I haven’t noticed any trend between clean shaven / bearded. Some do, some don’t.
Yeah, beards have been common since at least the ‘hipster/lumbersexual’ memes which were about 2008 or so. There’s not been any particular drop off since then. It’s just accepted that some people prefer or look better with a beard.
Yeah, I haven’t been clean shaven since I could first pull off a beard. Last time I saw my naked face was 15 years ago.
That said, I have started to put more effort into my beard to try to keep up with trends. Growing it out, oiling it, shaping the edges. It’s fun, but I still find myself trimming it down after too long just to make it easier to manage.
Why do people on the internet think you don’t have to shave if you have a beard? You’re just shaving less area.
For me, it’s sheer laziness. Can’t be arsed to shave more than once every 6 to 10 months.
Do always find it funny when folks react strongly when I do shave. It’s hair growth, not a personality.
My step dad is 50 and never amounted to anything in his life so his big thing that he has is his beard. He takes pictures and grooms it and its so so so stupid and it bothers me so much because he’s overweight and has done absolutely nothing worthwhile with his whole life but here is like oh yeah my beard is looking so great noone can grow the kind of beard I can. Like alright Dennis how about you go back and finish grade ten and get a real job other than selling pills.
Brother beards have been in for like 10 years.
More like 70 years.
Same reason I wear a brown onion on my belt
Because that damn Keiser stole your word twenty?
The question is: why are you shaving? Why are you so afraid of looking like yourself?
When you have a beard, people respect you. They listen when you talk and hold doors open for you. I have a hard time trusting a man with a clean shaved face, because our interaction is starting off with a lie. I feel the same way about makeup and fake eyebrows and plastic surgery.
copypasta?
An OC Rant with some light trolling in the form of toxic masculinity. Sarcastic but with elements of truth.
A fine cuisine. Pairs well with a nice Riesling.
Beards are great. Shaving was the greatest crime of Romans.
Right up there with Carthage
??? Carthaginian men did not had that custom, most wore beards.
I think they meant the destruction of Carthage something I am still sore about
Yeah that too, if the Carthage was not destroyed it would serve as counterbalance to Romans at least for a time, and the vile shaving custom would not spread as much.
