If I lived in Perth, had a trivia team and had an empty spot you'd be first in line mate

I shaved my beard down to a dodgy mo a couple weeks back, safe in the knowledge the general public would not be exposed to such a horror lurking beneath my mask.

Full beard back now, all good.

I’ve noticed a few people do that and I have giggled a bit when they pull their masks down. Some blokes have great beard growth and look so bloody stupid when they go with the mo

At least you don't get charged an extra $40 for haircuts just because of your gender.

Yeah but for some reason I get charged double for my waxing appointments!

You do if you get your beard trimmed. Can't imagine that's a problem many women face

Just GI Jane it.

Too soon?

Nah, we prefer to trim it ourselves mostly.

 

[MKMatty]

I’ve let my beard grow cause masks and what not

I’ve shaved mine down because of masks. I can’t get a decent fit around my face otherwise, and the itch is insane.

Balding hard and have been the last five years. Still thick on the sides not much at the top. Think Burnsy but thinner at the top

 

[Dazzler9]

If I ever went bald I think I'd just shave it all off.

 

[Truckosaurus]

He scalped Milhouse for that toupee, didn't he?

 

[ashley12]

Nah just have that Fremantle unjust sense of self belief in that the results will improve soon enough with no rhyme or reason.

 

[Keys]

Just GI Jane it.

Too soon?

Slapstick comedy

do you you moisturise your face?

Great you guys made Keys wear a cap.

TIL that young earth creationists like to claim legends of dragons as evidence that dinosaurs co-existed with people, and have gone to quite some lengths to justify this belief:

Coming soon, to a Jurassic Park franchise near you!

...you've been reading $someone's$ blog again haven't you?

I don't mind the grey in my beard, and I reckon I could make it work in the hair too. Bald is another matter entirely

I was raised in a church/church school that believed and pushed this stuff, not dragons but things like mentions of Leviathans in the Bible and the descriptions matching Plesiosaurus.

It's kind of interesting cuz I fully believed this stuff and read all of the apologetics and had all of the arguments and due to a cloistered upbringing it wasn't until uni that I really had my faith tested and I lost my religion over time.

You can have these really semantic and in-depth dialectics with otherwise smart people about topics where the entry point necessitates a belief in an interventionalist God, a young earth or other prima facie absurd beliefs.

Was pretty humbling at the time and why I have a bit more empathy for people who believe crazy stuff.

My dad knew a dude growing up who inherited a heap of $$$ from his dad’s market garden lands in what is now Cockburn.

Gave it all away to be some sort of JH type but in a convent on a farm or something.

Strange stuff.

So my youngest daughter has covid along with her boyfriend she’s a fortnight away from moving in with

She’s already moved out of home so no need for me to isolate so I’m good

Kinda weird how commonplace it seems now when only a month or two ago we were stressing about 5 cases a day and the media were reporting breathlessly about who tested positive and where they’d been

 

[THE A5]

I've gone out a few saturdays since cases skyrockets and I'm surprised I never got it. One place I went to a few eeks back was like covid didn't exist

 

[FKASC]

Me too, everytime someone says I should get a haircut I just say I want to wait until covid calms down a bit

During the two big lockdowns in Melbourne I went like 3 months without a haircut on both occasions. It was kinda cool because everyone else on zoom looked like turd as well.

Or that poor security guard who got it in the hotel Feb last year. There was panic stations and a mini lockdown and he got hounded for going to so many places and even had the media camped out the front of his apartment block he lived in.

Have you tried identifying as another gender?
