Movember 2010

Anyone watching Mock the Week on Dave right now? I'll look just like Frankie Boyle by the end of November :D

Just had an email from Papa Johns. Apparently they participate in/donate to Movember.

I'm trying to talk our lass into not falling out with me throughout Movember. We're going away for a few days in the middle of it, and she hates a tache.

One question: can I retain the beard until we get back and join in proper afterwards??

Of course you can - there aren't any hard and fast rules about growing the tash, just personal pride and fairness to your mo-bros.
 
Not wanting to distract away from the thread, but the flavour of my skin is brown. Current times therefore dictate dirty looks and what not when I don't shave and wander into beard mode.

Seriously. :(

Go for it, as far as I'm concerned it's principally about having a bit of fun and also the more money that can be raised for charity the better. As SteveOBHave says it's up to you really how you want to do it hence why I'm going bearded until the final day or two.

Wear a monocle as well then, this should cancel out the preconceptions :p
 
As I lack the genetics to grow a full beard I'm going for the tash with chin fluff.

The only reason why I'm not dreading the comments from the guys at work is because one of the other guys is a ginger lol.
 
Guys, it's supposed to look daft, that's where the charity cash comes from!

I ended up looking like Ken bloody Livingstone last year! The worst thing was going to a work awards event in a nightclub in London, my colleague I went with was also doing Movember so we ended up looking like a right couple of quairs in front of the big bosses. ;)
 
So the idea is to grow a moustache (a 'mo') not a beard. The whole point is to look ridiculous so that people pay you money to give to charity. As the rules say "no beards allowed". It's not a fashion contest. :D

I know... but if I were ever to take part (and I take part by supporting the charity) I couldn't wear a moustache - I know it's the whole point, but that's why I'd never do it. :) Certainly for work, in spite of it being for charity, I'd struggle to get acceptance for it. It's commendable though.

I know it's not for fashion, and that's why I applaud anyone that does it - as much as I'm happy to support charities, and I've done some ridiculous things like wax my legs for charity, and naked skydives etc...

Good luck to all of you doing it though. :)

"But I don't like to talk about those things" ;)
