    What's the point in them? They look weird & are only worn by;

    - Sinn Feiners
    - Taximen
    - Trade Unionists
    - Members of the Village People
    - Brandon Flowers
    - Willie O'Dea

    So why would anyone wear one? :confused:

    You forgot Hitler, Stalin and Barry McGuigan. Not sure if that last name should be associated with the other two though...

    The oul moustache is a bit 80's really isn't it? In most films in the eighties theres a lot them attached to mens faces.

    Who was the last cool tv/movie actor to have a moustache? Maybe Tom Selleck?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 314 ✭✭Mr Cawley


    They're 'badass'. five weeker on me now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,499 ✭✭✭Sabre0001


    Movember IS the reason...

    All other times of the year is just practice for Movember :D

    Not as utterly pointless and ridiculous as the soul patch. And I'm speaking from experience.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,554 ✭✭✭✭alwaysadub


    Don't like moustaches. They tickle.

    Just watched an Irish movie tonight-'Anton' where one of the guys had a killer moustache. 'Chopper' was on yesterday which was all about the moustache and Miami Vice with Colin Farrells cheesy moustache is on tomorrow.

    Grow a moustache if you are man enough to pull it off. It can make you look hard as nails or as gay as Christmas depending on the man!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,739 ✭✭✭✭starbelgrade

    Your balls, when you're in a 69 position with Willie O'Dea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 553 ✭✭✭NoHornJan


    An aunt from the midlands told me that "A kiss without a moustach is like eating an egg without salt"
    To me it has no rhyme or reason, but I heard her say it on more than one occasion.

    Oh, well, i don't put salt on my egg,and i don't like moustaches, so maybe she has a point. In a very strange way. :D

    Thats disgusting.

    I would never do the 69 position with Willy O'Dea.

    Missionary or nothing. :mad:

    Simple explanation - she was mad as a potato without cheese.

    The poor woman is long gone to her eternal reward, God rest her.
    She had a litany of old sayings and I can only remember a few.

    She was far from mad and I'm sorry I didn't write down or tape all the things she told me during her lifetime.

    The "mad as a potato without cheese" comment was just a play on the "A kiss without a moustach is like eating an egg without salt". Nothing bad meant by it.

    Lots of Catholic girls have them, too. Ask Frank Zappa, he knows!

    I keep a stick-on moustache in my wallet.Comes in handy when you'd least expect it, as do my fake spectacles.

    That's what After Hours is all about. If I was easily offended I shouldn't be here. At least you didn't pull the grammar nazi on me for spelling moustache wrong.

    Do the glasses have a nose attached? Could make all the difference..

    too unrealistic.No, a simple David Niven Tache, a dollop of bryll cream,some bergamot cologne,cravat,tip cigar and my club blazer is all I require to charm a certain type of laydeeeah.The sort of dear thing that cannot be wooed by my usual attire of sweatpants and fleece.

    A little further south though, and different lips.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 262 ✭✭Awful_Bliss


    I shaved my beard down to a mustache once to see what the other half would think. She wouldn't even look at me she was so disgusted at my 'nose neighbour'. You could probably get away in the 2010s with a handlebar mustache.

    "Thou shalt not cut off the hair that groweth below the line of the jaw, but will cut of anything above the place whereof I have spoken, but only up to the point, and inclusive of, the nasal hair - on no account shalt thou cut off thy eyebrows, both of which pleaseth the lord."

    Sounds like something out of a Monty Python sketch. :D

    Anyway, don't bash the 'tache.

    I now want to shave my eyebrows, just to spite God.

    That's not funny. In 2009, I was diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer. Since then, I have had two thyroid surgeries & radiation treatment. So far the cancer has abated and I am hopeful that it will not return, but your "joke" is something which I find highly insensitive.

    I understand that you were unaware of my illness, but that's besides the point - you shouldn't make jokes about serious illnesses.













































    Bet I had you there for a minute! :D
