Grow a beard or don't, but please refrain from sculpting your facial hair like a bad porn star's pussy a la Prince.

I have rocked a mustache as well as a porn-flavored mustache, but I always go back to the beard.

With the beard, you are more like the bear. For me, the ladies, they like the beard and so do I.

The mustache, it excites. For me, the ladies they like the mustache, and so do I.

This goatee (or other facial topiary work)is only acceptable for halloween, like when I was Ming the Merciless. I do not wish to be wearing of the Halloween facial hair outside of the halloween. That is Crap. The ladies, I assume do not like this as well, frankly I hate it enough to never find out.


Fuck you, Goatee. If only one in three hundred hombres looks good with ye, why must you sully so many the chins of our less than perceptive bretheren?

CRAPPY.

The goatee, she is crap.

Yes, I have sported the goatee, but is really, really crap. Look like a TV beatnik.

Beard or No beard? These are the choices for the facial hair. Now it is winter and I am wearing a Grizzly Adams beard, so nice in the cold weather. Probably to shave it off soon, though.

there is a massive exception to the goatee=crap rule

men of color. note that i am not afraid of saying 'black men,' and that is only partially what i mean. i mean 'men of color.' kerble, you have a little color to you. i can imagine you having a passable goat. i can easily imagine you having a crap goat as well, but you know. my friend ryan r., he is similarly complected, and he has had upon his face a non-crap goat.

many men of color have rocked the goat with style. at the very least, a goat is not normally crap on a man of color, and the darker he is, the less crap it tends to be. this is the midgett rule of goats. generally: crap, but etc.

mine own flirtation with the goat (i prefer the blunt 'goat' or the classier term 'van dyke') was done on tour, so partly excusable, and under the influence of someone saying i looked like a white malcolm x, with horn-rimmed glasses and such. of course, this was probably an insult, and yet it planted a tiny seed that grew itself out as a crap, white man's goat. the best thing that i can say about it is that it was square on the end, so that when i turned sideways, it etc. etc.

so, goats are crap, but x's goat? not crap. dr j's goat? n/c. thelonious monk? one of the greatest goats in modern history:

the finest present-day goat that comes to mind is that of vladimir guerrero, when he has sculpted it according to the monk model. it's a fine goatee, fit for the AL mvp and a man who does not use batting gloves.

but, in the end, due to all the white men w/goatees, some of whom are my friends: crap.

By the way, that mingus lp is probably one of my top 3 all time favorite jazz records. It melts/slays faces.

I'm no fan of the goatee, but I think we should be differentiating between an actual goatee and the recent craze with the chin-goatee's. These are the goatee's that are grown just on the chin. No moustache part. These are so very CRAP. They are for nu-metal dudes, often pop-punk dudes, and apparently, the christian-rockers too. Go to your local college campus and observe the horrors of the chin-goatee.
