Hey everybody, it's Movemeber! (http://www.movember.com/)
Also fun is this more fundamentalist site. (http://movember.org/).
Unfortunately I heard about this too late to have the SO participate, but I think it would be fun for next year.
Here's to all the fine, mustachioed men out there. (Yes, I'm looking at you Paul.)
-
I can't participate in this because I am not going to shave my moustache. Also, the month is more than half over already.
-
I've been giving some thought to let ol' Wispy out again...
-
Somebody I follow on Twitter calls it Beardvember. I'd be more likely to participate in that. Shaving is so lame. That's how I ended up growing a beard in college.
-
yes there will be no shaving of the mustache regions.

Mo'vember. The glottal pause is necessary. My local radio Morning Show has been participating, and follows up any mention of Mo'vember with "Check your nuts and butts" as a men's health reminder.

HAHA THAT SOUNDS LIKE A ZANY ZOO CREW TO ME ROFLOL
-
Pretty much. They make me smile though.
-
Fun name for a lady's genital health program: No smirkin' -- check your merkin.
-
ive been growing my entire face out since the first week in september. technically i dont qualify, but i dont even care. in my mind, the health of my no-no area and my facial hairy-ness have no correlation.
-
Oh god, all you hairy-faced men need to PM me your pictures. NOW. I love beards. Oh my god. Fingers in beards, FTW.

I didn't read the link but if we're posting facial hair pics here you go.

Sadly I only possess sideburns and hate taking pictures of myself, as I am self-conscious on the topic of my weight.
I am not really super-fat in any way, I'm just portly but it still bugs the hell out of me.

Why do you think I only posted my beard? It's all downhill from there, folks. You're not missing much.
-
Oh, I so picked the right forum to hang out in. Big guys with beards and dark hair? My personal preference, by far.
-
To be fair, the internet is made of big guys experimenting with different kinds of facial hair.
If that is what you are into, there isn't an incorrect forum for you to be on.
They are all that.
If you were to crack open your computer, you would find a tiny Brian Posehn inside, operating a series of pulleys and switches.
-
I really wish I could grow facial hair other than sideburns and some patchy stubble. My father had an awesome full beard for 30 years of his life, yet none of his 5 sons can grow anything respectable. WTF is up with that?
-
How hard have you tried? You may want to try harder.

Don't worry. Somewhere out there is a bearded dude who is looking for a crazy-looking owl to hang out with.

With you there, man. My Irish and Danish genes do not lend themselves well to significant body hair of any sort, really.

i have the french pattern. with attention and effort i could be a musketeer, but i will never have a viking-like cheeksmane, and it saddens me.

From about a year ago. That's a winter beard -- there's much less of it (and of me) at the moment.
-

the correct name is NOVEMBEARD
You must be unhinged. Why would it be called Novembeard when the whole point is to grow only a moustache?
-
I used to have a beard, but lately I don't want one at all.
a few years ago I had a beard like so:
(http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-sf2p/v71/39/80/1401570082/n1401570082_30102524_6752.jpg)
about a year ago I had a mustache for a few weeks, before I chickened out:
(http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-sf2p/v649/102/1/3113515/n3113515_34015784_7825961.jpg)
I had not realized I looked so bleary-eyed when I drank. Hoo boy.
-
Oh, Dan! You are cute with a beard.
Me & Blue, we share proclivities.
-
Something about Inev's stache makes it look kind of 70s to me.
-
Yeah, the beard looks fine on you, Danevitable.
The mustache... is somewhere between "mailman" and "on a sex offender list in Montana".
-
yeah, i was pretty happy with that beard.
Since then my hair has grown out some, been cut, grown out again, etc. My face has also filled out some, which is nice.
Also my facial hair has started coming in much redder. I don't know what's up with that.
the mustache is not a great thing for the long term. I think this picture was taken before I trimmed it a little more and made it look less... 70s.
It is a cool look, I actually kind of like it, but it made people assume I was one/all of the following:
-a pedophile
-a douchey hipster
-trying to look like a dad or something?
-
You must be unhinged.
Bobby? Unhinged?
Naww.
-
With you there, man. My Irish and Danish genes do not lend themselves well to significant body hair of any sort, really.
Well apparently English and Danish genes do. But I can never get much past the first 3 weeks of not shaving, so I'd trade my beard-having ability for a wee bit less body hair.
-

awww! your little lady is cute like you!
How hard have you tried? You may want to try harder.
if he tries too hard, he'll pop a blood vessel in his eye. or an o-ring......

are you implying a triliteral arabic root M-B-R meaning "facial hair" ?
-
this is from this past april, i think... :
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/inmyskittelz/vanity/fbeardlil.jpg)
i shaved it all off shortly thereafter, but now my beard is back and in even full-er effect. ill post new a new pic soon because my hair is newly shortened.
-
awww! your little lady is cute like you!
Yes, she is cute EXACTLY like me.
Someday I will get around to posting baby pictures of myself to prove it.
Not only does my son routinely mistake photos of me as a baby for my daughter, so does my mother-in-law.
It's kind of wonderful, especially after having a boy who looks exactly like his father.

Inev, definitely the beard. Definitely only for irony the mustache. ;)
AWest; very nice beard! Distinguished yet jazzy.
-

Hands down the best photo ever taken of me. Elsewhere I resemble a dandy-esque stalker.
-
Here's (http://www.flickr.com/photos/pmcd9/2843641310/) an old picture of me with a beard.
-

Pic's almost 10 years old now, but I'm still pretty much the same. Gray in the beard used to be red. Got Lasik, so the glasses are history, thank God.
-

Haha awesome picture. You seem to take as much pleasure in eating sausage as I do. In fact I think I will cook up some chorizo with fried onions for dinner tonight.
Since this has turned into a picture thread I feel the need to take one showing off how little facial hair I'm capable of growing.
-
I do not now nor have I ever had facial hair, so no pictures. The closest I've ever come was not shaving for two weeks 'round about 1992. I looked like crap, so that experiment ended.
-
And this, kind people of the internet, is why I should be named Best Newbie of 2009. Look at all these handsome men with glorious beards, and occasional phallic meat eating, that would not have been here without my exhortations! (wait, campaign time is over...damn.)
-
guys we better stop i think bluemoon's ##### are about to explode
-

Dinner is served:
(http://i49.tinypic.com/33lh821.jpg)
Sausage inna bun, w/ spicy brown mustard, red onions, sirracha and jalapeno slices. And a can of Boh of course.
-
I was with you until the jalepeno slices. But only because those looked pickled and I only like the fresh ones. Oh, and my favorite band's logo is a feminized version of the Natty Boh guy. Their first album was based on the can, as well.
-
I have seen a lot of beer in my day, but I have never seen that kind of beer or heard of anyone drinking it. In fact, I think the picture is shooped, or you imported that beer from like 1973 Chicago.

I hear you only need one eye to see a good beer.
My brother-in-law lives in Baltimore, so I have had the personal pleasure of Natty-Bo.

National Bohemiam aka Natty Boh is/was the local cheap-ass beer of choice around Baltimore. Now it's made by PBR. It was originally made by the same people that made Colt 45

Nothing is pure anymore. Lone Star was owned by a Canadian company at one time. I don't know who the hell owns them now.
-
A Brazilian company owns Budweiser. The times, etc.
(also, why the fuck didn't I get a picture taken when I had a 'tache? Fuck.)

I also have the brown hair/red beard issue.
(http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa134/rowboat77/riverrob-2.jpg)
It's pretty much the only reason I don't rock a full-on one more often. The longer it gets, the redder it gets. Waiting with bated breath for the gray to come. Then it won't matter. As of now I have two gray strands near my right temple. Two down, nine hundred ninety-eight thousand to go!

Grow the hair just above and in front of your ears long, if it isn't already, then hold it in place against your cheeks with spirit gum. This style shall be known as the femutton.

What's the problem with a red beard? My partner has the same angst, and I just don't understand why.

Never mind the beard - what a great photo. That is a Serious Adventurer.

Bonus points also for Rowboat including a rowboat in the self-portrait.

yes. yes, someone did.

I am appalled that so many attractive men are wasting their lives here on the internet. The internet is supposed to be for ugly people. All of you are too cute to be here.
Please don't leave me.

It's like wearing mismatched clothes. It just doesn't look right.

Some boys wanted to be astronauts when they grew up. I wanted to be Captain Willard.
Bonus points also for Rowboat including a rowboat in the self-portrait.
Believe it or not, it is purely coincidence. It was just the best beard picture at hand. For the record, I'm not a canoe (or rowboat) enthusiast, per se. "Rowboat" is just kind of a riff on my given name.

From now on I'll assume your given name is Knut.

It...It doesn't? But, I have brown hair and a red (OK, formerly red) beard. Uh oh.

A Belgian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anheuser-Busch_InBev) company, actually.
InBev is the result of a merger with AmBev, which is Brazilian, together, they bought bud.
-
My beard isn't exactly ginger, but it ain't quite brown, either. The longer it gets, the darker it appears, but there's still a lot of red in it. If anything, the beard gives my sandy brown hair a slight reddish tint by its proximity.

Yeah, and they don't even need to look very far, Minotaur.
