Reply to: People with 'young' faces who grow beards

[Zero Liability]

I'm not entirely convinced everyone is born in the way you and I think. I think some people were rolled out of a production line as ready made 50 year olds.

That would apply more to the kids who tend to try grow these beards, based on the "retro" fashion sense that tends to accompany it. They usually look awful. Well groomed stubble or a 5 o' clock shadow suits many men; beards don't. There's always people who can pull them off, but usually not the kids using them to conceal a baby face.

I still don't get this one with the (usually male) yoot of today. Tats, piercings, not my bag, but yeah whatever.

But wanting to expand your ear lobe so large when you take the wagon wheel sized "washer/small alloy wheel" out of your lobe you are forever adorned with a dangly piece of er...ear lobe.

No better or worse than a large indelible tattoo really. I think using your body as a canvas is either something you get or something you don't. Certainly not for me and I admit I find such things a bit weird.

I still am young

So yes then

...yoot of today. ...

(I agree on that one though)

or worse a fookin stoopid big hoop in their ears trying to look like something out of a 1980's national geographic publication

One guy I work with looks fairly normal with his beard. He shaved it off for charity and looked like a 16 year old girl due to his soft complexion and weak jaw line. We understood why he was anxious to grow it back quickly but he hasn't lived it down. Admittedly, this week we have been calling him Conchita.

thing is I have nothing against people with Tats, piercings etc etc

It is just these people seem to be like 'Hmm if I stroke my beard it will make people think I am older and more proffesional'

It is this fookin assumption that annoys me almost like - well I have a beard and therefore what tulip pours from my mouth is worth more than someone else who does not have a beard

for me if you have hair around your lips you are a tw@

True. 'Gits' was the operative term I believe.

I guess anything to annoy the old twats. I've tried a few times already. I can't get past the 'looking like a bum' stage...

Indeed. Annoying grumpy old gits should be the ambition of young people every day. A day without making some bang his fists on the table and shout 'in my day' or 'the youth of today' is a day wasted.
