people that own throw pillows on your bed...do you just throw them on the ground when you sleep? what's the point?

I throw them on a chair in the corner, I don't throw them on the floor.

They are just on my bed for decorative purposes.

To throw at your cat in the middle of the night when it wakes you up.

My wife would murder me if I did that.

My cat is 5, yours is 95.

How do you decide when you should pack it in and never try to grow facial hair? Is there a “plow through” phase where you don’t know what will happen but have to keep going?

I’ve had a beard since college so I feel qualified to discuss this matter, but I don’t understand your question. Is this about getting through the itchy period or giving up ever trying to facial hair because it is patchy af?

It never worked for Sid.

I’m Italian, so I’ve had facial hair since I was about four. I’d say 18-20 is probably the cutoff for figuring out if it’ll work for you.

Patch face. How patchy is too patchy? If I have to ask, do I already have my answer?

Postby **NTP66** » Fri Mar 08, 2019 2:59 pm

Yes, you do.

Good for you!

If you were eating nigiri sushi (fish on rice, or rolls),the chopsticks are optional. It's meant to be finger food.
i did have a few nigri pieces and i was told that i could do finger food, but i didn't want to embarrass myself more than i already did. so chipsticks all the way

Fair play.

Any patchy is too patchy. Also say no to neckbeards and chin straps.

I have such a hard time growing facial hair that when I was still playing hockey my teammates used to joke that I needed to start my playoff beard in week 1 of the season. Takes me about six weeks to get to what I imagine the average dude looks like after 5-7 days. For the reference of those of you that have seen recent photos of me, I haven't been clean shaven since late 2016. And that's what I got.

My last two house guests left the bed unmade.

When I stay at my sister's I leave as big a mess as I can.

I tried to do No Shave November knowing my efforts would be pathetic. Got two weeks with the beard and it was so bad, I shaved it off. Left the mustache attempt and it was so sad it made people angry.

For that reason, I kept it until mid January. It never did get much better.

Yeah probably. My one buddy has had some good success filling in little patches with a dedicated beard-patching pencil of some sort...wasn't obvious to me, even when pointed out...

I personally can't grow a full beard...but I keep some scruff around because that's like catnip for chicks...

This was 2.5 months.

Let the mocking begin.

Probably. I would think if you’re self-conscious about it, it’s probably a no go

Oh, it didn’t go unmentioned with my co-workers.

I don't know what 'E85' is or the difference between ethanol and non-ethanol 91 or whatever.
E85 is 85% ethanol, 15% gasoline. Can't really run it in anything not designed/programmed for it.

Normal ethanol gas E10 has 10% ethanol, 90% gas. Non-ethanol is 100% gasoline.

When I bought my current car, I saw on the gas cap that it could take E85. I was excited because it was like almost a buck cheaper. It burned at twice the rate of regular gas, meaning I was filling up again the next day. Waste of money.

my man.

i have barber clippers with no attachment, and just go head to chin every weekend. i haven't shaved clean since my wedding, 9 years ago. i'm reasonably-but-not-totally bald. i can't raw dog it with facial hair. my scruff game is strong. subtle. but not too subtle. i actually think most guys would look better with the scruff. clean shaven face is no way to live life.

I wasn't able grow a proper beard until I was 48 so there is hope for you.
