I kept my epic beard during the 'demic, n the most annoying thing was wearing a mask n having it leave an imprint in the beard n fucking it all up. Now I just have a low-key boring beard. I kinda miss the ole bushy bastard.
When I was younger, I desperately wanted a bushy beard, had none to speak of, today I’m older, could grow one easily, don’t want one anymore, makes me look old. Shaving is so obnoxious. I guess it’s one of the grass on the other side it’s greener thing. Sigh.
My beard of the past 20 years started falling out to look like this recently. Actually pretty sad day when I decided it looked too mangey and I shaved it.
That was my dad in the Navy in the '60s. The rules were you could have facial hair, but if you wanted to go from clean shaven to facial hair you needed permission and you had two weeks to grow it - if it wasn’t good enough you had to shave.
He couldn’t grow a beard in a fortnight. I can’t grow a beard in a fortnight.
So he applied right before going on leave so he would have 4 weeks of leave + 2 weeks to grow the beard, which was sufficient
A beard is fine. It requires maintenance though. These jungle refugee beards need to go. Plus, if the mustache is hanging over your lip it’s like Jean-Ralphio’s sister, Mona-Lisa, THE WOOORST🎶.
Whenever I see this meme template I can’t help but think about how the girl on the left has a snout. What’s up with that? Is this from some kind of furry thing?
Artifact of a slant of anime style. The ‘cute little nose’ ends up making for fun profiles when there’s supposed to be a little bump out of a nose, but then their mouth is wide open, too. Normally, a little bump of a nose looks totally normal. (as normal as anime, anyways)
I inadvertently switched my thrichotillamania to my beard a few years ago.
I miss it terribly. Shaving is so much work, and while it’s relaxing, inevitably an ingrown hair pops up and retriggers everything anyway when I attempt to grow it back.
I’ve been worried I permanently destroyed it like the guy in the meme, but I had my thumb bound up for 5ish weeks and it came back in nicely before I decimated it again.
I’ve had a beard ever since I could grow one. It hit me pretty hard when I turned 18, just boom, beard, and haven’t shaved it smooth since. I literally have no idea what I look like as an adult without a beard.
Shaving? Haircuts? I can’t stand being in one place long enough to fool with either. I’m pacing around here looking like Jesus Christ right now. I’m almoooossst annoyed enough by my hair to beg someone to cut it or shave it off.
