    Has this not been done about a thousand times at this stage?

    You have beard envy sir. It's not your fault.

    Consider them a warning sign OP other wise you might just find yourself checking out a lot of effeminately dressed men.

    No beard envy here. I sport quite a fetching one thank you very much. I have one due to being lazy however. Shaving is a hassle I don't need in my life. A once a week trim is grand for keeping from looking like a hobo.

    Mumford and Sons are hipsters? And responsible for big beards? And big beards help ugly blokes pull?

    None of these things are true.

    The ones that look like pubes are just distracting,I always think what bits of food have you got in there.

    Yep, because they're an obscure underground band and they invented beards.

    Thread abounds with bearded defensiveness.

    Why are men with beards in tv ads portrayed as complete thicks?

    I've decided to go clean shaven, facial hair has now become too common among the masses.

    My ex girlfriend seemed to think so too.

    I didn't agree, it was a big turn off. Especially the way it hurt my groin when she went down on me. :mad:

    Seen her last week. She's obviously on the immac now.

    I'm convinced I started the trend :)

    People with beards are hiding something and cannot be trusted. Especially men.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,163 ✭✭✭✭danniemcq


    I'll say one thing they are wile handy for scratching your arm or hand when you are busy gaming.

    I mean that alone is enough for me never to shave again

    people had beards before mumford & sons you ****ing moron


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,280 ✭✭✭Davarus Walrus


    I think it's the sudden explosion in beard wearing that might the subject of the OP's ire. It just shows that they don't really suit most men. For every fetching example that is well-groomed and suited to the face of the wearer, there are 5 examples of scraggly growth that look like a nest of matted pubes have been super-glued to a victim's face as he slept. Awful things.

    And that's not even talking about the horrors of the neckbeard.

    Beards are extremely hot. Mumford and fcking Sons have nothing to do with it.

    They kinda suit a certain type of person as well.

    So when you see a young, skinny, fey student type gambolling down the road with a Ronnie Drew face rug, it just looks a bit strange.

    What could you possibly hide with a beard...





  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,512 ✭✭✭Muise...


    After the glorious Conchita Wurst, I think the rest of you should go home and shave. It's over.

    Just seen a post about beards.
    I’m 28 years of age and I can’t grow a beard for some reason, I can get a goatee going but never seem to grow hair on the lower cheeks or locks.
    I always found this odd and I’m the only male in my family with this issue.



    It can be handy as I don't have the shave frequently which is a blessing.



    Anyone else unable to grow a full-on-beard? Do you think it's a medical thing or just genetics?


    (I do have a pair by the way)
