Default My beard was getting unruly...

The moustache was beyond controllable and was like a tarantula under my nose. So I decided to groom it, even though I'm opposed to shaped beards and moustaches. So there it went, getting trimmed and trimmed to the point that I was looking like a goth/emo biker - like there's any other type of biker -

I'm already missing my face tuque.

This picture is true.

That's funny.

My beard is approaching full face fro crossed with hisidic jew.

Your cartoon represents me perfectly.

There is a nice feeling after you shave it off...freshness...then regret and the process begins anew

There are lot's of different bikers. There are wannabes, posers, weekend warriors, old school, and finally the real kind.

What kind of bystander are you?

Started working on the big oil sites this summer, and having to be clean shaven is something I absolutely hate!!! I had a beard for 9 years before that! Was devastating when I had to shave it off! Didn't realize how fat I'd gotten, till I made my face bald! Ha ha! I've had the whole month of December off, and I'm sporting a nice goatee, but come January 5th, I'll be baby faced again! Dammit!

I was told by a barber that those who shave often have more taut skin because they are continually irritating it. Whereas bearded people who all of a sudden shave it, are actually looking at healthy facial skin.

My face has the roundness of a bowling ball.

HATE SHAVING, hate hate hate!!!!!

If you are of Polish descent, you were doomed from the start. I married a Polish lass and they made me aware of the bowling ball heads stemming from Eastern Europe. I went to a Polish mass one time and was amazed at the truth of that statement.

Better than a cube headed German.

How do you get a Polish gal pregnant?
You blow in her ear.

Yes I'm of Polish descent.

Nah, you been watching too many second rate tv shows, and it appears you are dumb enough to believe it.

What kind of biker am I? Got my first motorcycle in the 60s, My first Harley in the 70s, which I still have, got three more since. I bought my last one in 09 and put 83k on it in five summers.

I find it curious that you start a post on facial hair and take a big left turn and takes a cheap shot at a totally unrelated subject.

So why do you feel the need...did a biker take your lunchmoney once upon a time...did he smile at your girlfriend?

Why don't you go back to watching Sons of Anarchy

The two guys bickering over a difference of opinion in this thread is the exact reason why my post count has substantially dropped in the last year. Just agree to disagree! Stay on topic, or don't post.....it's really that simple!

Back to the topic.....shaving sucks!!!

When you base a stereotype on a TV show or a bunch of misconceptions, some things need to be straightened out.

If you wanna follow a stereotype, shouldn't get upset when you get stereotyped. If you wanna be or look like a biker then be prepared to be treated as one. Real Newfies don't give a rat's patout. Real bikers don't read AO. Real blondes don't know your making fun of them.

I thought my face looked leaner when I shaved after my 3 month break between jobs a couple years ago.

As a real newfie, I enjoy the newfie jokes. But if you're going to crack one, at least try to make it original. I've always said, if you can't laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at. Buy, please, if you are going to crack a newfie joke to a newfie, make it a good one, cuz we have heard them all. We still laugh, but its more at you than with you.

Ever since I started wet shaving I love shaving. Kind of wish I could do it twice a day.
Weird I know.

I am not following a stereotype, I made the stereotype. Thirtyfive years ago, if you were the one standing on the street corner watching the bikers go by, I was the one with the long hair and beard riding the chopper.
