Beards!!!!!!!

[ArDee]

i did the beard thing when i was in late teens , great fun you save all those food bits for ron in it !

wouldnt be allowed now though

I also grow mine in my late teens; I got feed-up with being asked in pubs if I was over 18. X years later, where X is a large number, I don't think that would be a problem now. But Mrs ArDee likes breads, has never seen me without one and won't allow me to shave it off. She says that she prefers it that way, she'd be able to see too much of my face without a bread!

[QUOTE 2267761, member: 1314"]“I’m growing a beard.” I told my boss on Friday.

“Oh no you’re not.” she said.

That’s me told. 4 day stubble shaved off this morning.[/quote]

Is she Ross Perot?

Save your pogonic efforts for a holiday period and present it as a fait accompli.

I did that when I turned up at school after the summer break with a beard, gelled hair and an embryonic pony tail. I had every intention of shaving and having a hair cut that evening, it was a training day, until the prim and proper power dressed deputy head mistress approached me and hissed

'I trust that your hairstyle is a temporary measure'

'Nope' was my instant, defiant and succinct response.

She didn't speak to me for three months until I got bored with the haircare routine and turned up with a clean shaven face and number three cut.

Excellent advice, exquisitely worded.

Tell her if she's allowed a moustache why can't you have a beard.

Did anyone else wonder what bear gel is and whether it is legal for a moment?

Ooops

Now corrected to beard, gelled hair......

 

[BigonaBianchi]

why is it that clean shaven is accepted by corporate hitlerdom, as is a beard, but wow betide the unshaven stubble clad masses.

 

[Sca1ey]

Because it looks like you can't be bothered.

Hubby has a beard. He shaved it off once and just left a dodgy moustach. Horrendous couple of weeks before the beard grew back.
He used to have a nice Van Dyke, but of late he has been depressed so the beard has become the full Captain Haddock. Very un-appealing. I have asked nicely, I have nagged, I have left the clippers out with a nice #40 blade on (.3mm, fine for getting the bulk of the fluff off). Now I am just really irritated by it. He is rapidly turning into David Bellamy and its not a good look.

I beg to differ.

Beard can be cool (especially with a few shades of grey). Shaved/waxed chest can be cool. Shaved/waxed legs can be very cool..*



* Exemptions apply..

I think I can claim two out of three.

Is that the part we guess, or the part you confess?

C'mon.. I'm in a listening mood tonight!
