And women have no chin.
One shot to the face and they fold like cheap napkins.
Other than that yo-....Wait. No, it's still a flawed argument.
If every day you had to take a blade TO YOUR FACE instead of makeup, creams, and fucking eyelash lengthening fucking nonsense you might have a more valid reason to be moody.

I agree. I do it for my team if they qualify. But now there are all kinds of people trying to rip off the tradition, people doing it for no reason like this. Baseball fans doing it when the players aren't even doing it. High school teams grow out their high school wispy mustaches. It's silly. It's a hockey tradition and should stay there in my opinion.

Perhaps you should check out Movember and you'd see that it is not "for no reason".
From http://us.movember.com/about/
A Mo Bro starts Movember – the month formerly known as November – clean shaven, and grows a moustache all month long, garnering support from friends and family in the form of donations. What’s more, a Mo Bro is a walking billboard for the cause as his new look opens the door for him to talk about cancers affecting men – making the moustache a symbol, much like the pink ribbon is for breast cancer.
This Movember, the money raised in the U.S. will be split between the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the Lance Armstrong Foundation.

Side note: Me not shaving for a month will probably look like most of you after a week... its a blessed curse.

I have not shaved since September 9th and can still get dates. In fact, I remember reading a while back that chest hair and beards are attracting more women in this economy as they perceive a man who possesses them as being more likely to provide them with security.
Of course, my beard comes in full. I assume that most women don't find the patchy beards that scream "I've got mange" to be all that appealing.

You forgot some food in there.Believe it or not, that shot came not five minutes after a shower. That's not food (or anything else, thanks for not taking it that direction), it's just patches of grey.
I've had a goatee for years, but just a patch on my chin - you can tell the hair is much longer there. Haven't had hair right above or below my lips since probably 2005. I thought it might come in a little salt-and-pepper, and unfortunately I was right, although it's weird how it seems to be targetting specific spots.

I did the No-shave nonsense. It worked out great. Had a sweet beard, then I decided that wasn't enough.
Went ahead and shaved myself a set of handlebars...but I had about 5 different chicks I know tell me to shave them, so after a good 10 days of handlebars, they're gone.
RIP Handlebars.
But I'm growing them back next month for sure.
