The Mustache Thread

[singlewedge]

What is a basket ball mustache?

[Pyment]

five on each side

Here is me. Freshly waxed and ready to go to work. I never smile except when I get a new blade or my kids do something cool.

[syslight]

so do all you guys drink your coffee and tea from "mustache cups"?


and are you simply compensating for the fact that your wife's 'staches are manly than yours?

[singlewedge]

My wife has no stache.

And with Oregon Wild hair I need not worry about melting staches.

I've been wearing this for about 25 years. I have forgotten what my top lip looks like...

I am trying to grow a mustache without my wife noticing until it is there and she can't do anything about it lol. Funny thing is, back a few years ago, I had a full beard and I shaved that off and kept the mustache. She fell in love with it and thought I looked like Johnny Depp with a Mustache and couldn't keep her hands off me. Every time since then, I have tried to get one back and she insists is looks dumb. How is that even possible? My face didn't change any, so how could it be amazing a few years ago and now look lame and stupid? Ugh!



All I know is I hope when she sees it it has that Clark Gable effect on her like it did the first time.

I think it's because Johnny's mustache, and indeed any facial hair he ever grows, looks dumb. It's always scraggly. I do think the easiest way to grow one is to do it how you did the first time; just stop shaving all together and then lose everything except the mustache. Or, if you still want to shave, do a goatee (mustache and chin). Having other hair on your face helps draw attention away from the upcoming mustache (which always looks bad...).

Was she then your girlfriend, and now is your wife?

That would explain it.

That's the ticket, laddy! At least for people who are partial to facial hair, which is ironic as I'm pretty sure most of us here at SRP are not.

I'll admit that not every man can pull off the stache, ESPECIALLY if you're under 40. Or maybe 35. And if you can pull it off when you're under 30 then you're either a true rebel or a redneck, but I digress...
