The Folk Prophet Posted April 29, 2019 Report Posted April 29, 2019 21 minutes ago, Vort said: I'm secretly jealous of guys with beards. One of the things that discouraged me is I'd been growing mine for 8-9 months and my brother in law came into town for a visit who'd been growing his since around Jan: So ashamed of my lack of manliness. (Full disclosure: this picture of him is actually from the previous time h'd grown a beard in 2015 but is a good representation of what his looked like. I didn't get a pic of him this time around).

NeuroTypical Posted April 29, 2019 Report Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) Three bishops ago, the bishopric had a beard growing contest in prep for some youth trek or other. 2 weeks into it, one counselor was a manly lumberjack. 6 months into it, the bishop was showing a tad of peach fuzz, which could be detectable by the human eye if the light hit him just right.

Yeah, you'd think that, right up until you meet @pam and @Just_A_Guy in the flesh and realize exactly who you're dealing with. Trust me, it's not TFP and me that you need to be worried about.

Tip for anyone meeting up with @Just_A_Guy for a meal in the future: Bring a pocket dictionary. Or at least have Google read on your phone. Of course I didn't want to look dumb, so I just pretended to understand all the words he used. Thank goodness for context. To be fair, it was a bit hard to hear sometimes (as can often be the case in restaurants). So maybe they were normal words and I just didn't hear them right.

askandanswer Posted April 30, 2019 Report Posted April 30, 2019 Is this the same eating place where other thirdforum meet-ups have taken place? From what I recall of other pics of similar events, the setting looks quite similar. Quote

Apparently I'm neither sage enough or hipster enough when push comes to shove. You look just like a friend of mine who visits us every week or two to play D&D. He only has a 16" beard. Yes, I measured it once. He may have trimmed it a few times. But it is hecka long. Quote
