the former is stubble, not beard.
If I were to shave I would spend far less time and it would much more simple. a good looking, well trimmed beard means a hell of a lot more commitment and skill than just shaving.
Like clothing, facial hair popularity comes and goes. Beards seem to be on the rebound. I find civil war pics very amusing for the fact that everyone has wily facial hair as opposed to current military trends.
I can do that in a day.Quote:

About twenty-five years ago when I was in a cabin in the woods with Beirut, I went about a year or two without shaving. I had a beard you could hide chickens in. It was glorious. :disguise:
It's official: Beirut's beard has become a sentient life form and is now posting on the .org.Quote:

Speaking of truly awsome facial hair...... where's Kukri?

I only wear a full beard when I've been too lazy to shave for a while, usually in the winter when it's (arguably) fashionable.
Currently I have a moustache with the triangle under my lower lip, pirate style. I think it suits me, and so do those whose opinions of my appearance I consider to have value.
I used to add the chin hair with the above (without the sides under the mouth, which would make it a full goatee), but that has turned 50% gray, so I don't usually wear it that way anymore.
I used to wear a full goatee often when I was younger. It looked ok but got to be quite a cliche, so I started doing the pirate thing. This pic, which is buried in the Family Photos ... thread, is of me about a decade ago, with a full goat, and my bro, with his baby face:

Oh, and Vuk - I'm not sure people thinking a person look intelligent is the same thing as looking attractive.
I once had a salesman tell me I looked like an engineer. It was correct, but not exactly encouraging - the stereotype of engineers is not of attractive, well groomed people.
It does seem like goatees are very popular nowadays. Seems like I'll stick with my beard (or, really stubble - I likely won't grow it out again until the winter).

Rabbit - you write posts like an engineer.
:sneaky: :balloon2:
I wouldn't be surprised if Vuk was attracted to Gerard Butler :wink: .
Or Billy Mays for that matter.
:wink: Isn't :wink: that :wink: right :wink: Vuk :wink: ? :wink: :smug2:
Nah, Stallone is more my type. ~;)Quote:
