Funny/Not Funny




While traveling in Europe last time, Husbie grew a bushy beard. I was cool with it, since that's what vacation is for, right? Sleeping in, eating out, growing beards. At the beginning of week 2, he ducked into the bathroom to shave it off, but emerged a few minutes later sporting a thin, creepy, flamboyant John Waters-looking moustache. Um, no.


He proclaimed that it was "stylish" and "hilarious" and "good looking." It was the creepiest thing ever, and I spent the next 4 hours trying to drive home just how gross it was was, and how I didn't want to spend the next week looking at his stupid 'stache. He claimed I was over-reacting, and trying to "stifle his creativity and fashion sense." After arguing for hours, he begrudgingly shaved it off.

Since we're on board to go to Germany for 2 weeks in the Spring, he has decided, once again, that the familiar 'stache will be making another guest appearance on his mug. I think he's just testing me.

I'm not exactly anti-stache. Why can't he just bust out the 'G. Michael??' Is that too much to ask?

So, dear readers, please let me know your thoughts on the John Waters 'stache. Funny or not funny?

uh...not funny. He will have to find something else to show off his fashion sense.

It's funny. Creepy and funny. But I know L isn't creepy so it's most certainly funny. I'm jealous you're going to Germany.

Brett!!!!! That's not helping my case, dude.

I'm all for beards. I'm all for goatees. I draw the line at the 'stache. I know it's kinda funny but creepy and so nasty. They look like out of work porn stars.

I'm sorry but it is sort of hilarious. Of course, I'm not married to it.

Eeek! No Lance - NOOOooooo!!!!

and it looks like the consensus is funny. Brett sums it up perfectly. Let's just be happy we are going to Germany and can join in the Eurofest. Don't make me break out my sparkle shirt!

The Mostess said...

Update--I sent the sparkly shirt to DI, along with your dumb gold chain. Sorry sucka!

barf-o-rama.

if i caught a guy making eye contact with me looking like that, i'd kick him in the junk, run fast, and then call the cops.

oh, and then look in the police blotter of santa clara weekly to make sure they cops really did respond.

and ps- if you find this at all attractive, then yes, you're definitely right...we so have opposite taste in men.

OK...I have to clarify... It is funny - but only for ONE MINUTE. Then, after that, it is creepy, nasty, sick, and wrong. No man, in this day and age, should have a 'stache.
