Plaited beards. WTF?

To the man sat opposite me on the train this morning: Plaiting your beard and putting coloured beads in it does not make you look edgy and cool. It looks fucking stupid. That is all

Very grumpy indeed. It his beard, let him get on with it.

So now we're slagging off how men choose to look just the way we slag off women. I guess thats equality of sorts. Hmm
Hope you checked with the other commuters that your look was acceptable, OP.

It's a bit of fun. Why not.
Live and let live.

Ok Ok, I got out the wrong side of bed this morning. I think it's an age thing but I seem to increasingly becoming irrationally angry about silly things.

There are so many things worth getting angry about in this world; plaited beards don't even make the top 100 thousand for me.

Nothing wrong with it! I'm a biker and some of the guys have been doing this for years...when all the hipsters are gone, the bikers will still be doing it, and fair play to them.

well it is his beard you know!
one of our bus drivers puts a little plait in his and fixes it with a loom band.
it looks nice.

Sorry - somehow missed off my last sentence! I originally suggested that you channel that anger by going online and signing a petition or something about something that might actually allow you to purge some of that anger by achieving something, however small it is.
