Dear Lord, I look like an idiot

Hello! As some of you know I'm 'growing' a 'tache for charity this month. I look like a freak.

Anyone that's donated will get to see a photo if they want (PM away) or I will post it if I get to £200 on my charity page.

Give! Give! Give!

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 14:29

Whew! Ace gave 50.00 squids! Nice one

Grim... · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 14:31

He did, and it was very kind of him, as indeed it was of everyone who gave money.

myp · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 14:37

I meant to do this earlier, but waited for payday and then forgot. Done now.

me and my friends once all of us grew 'taches for the new years eve. Not for charity, just for stupidity.

MaliA · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 14:39

I has no monies. Sorry.

Hey, you've put the target up. That's just greedy.

Grim... · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 15:38

If I hit the £250 target I'll make it my Facebook photo.

I've seen the pic! Best tenner I ever spent!

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 15:40

I has no card and things to do transfer

Maybe if Mr.G is nice I can give him the cash and he can whap some monies on for me

I'm keeping the wallet clamped shut until the full month is up and I see the resulting pic, although I'd be more inclined to cough up without prejudice if this wasn't you just letting yourself go for a month

Grim... · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 15:42

Shaving with a 'tache is hard, man. And I don't know how to eat.

DBSnappa · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 15:54

I might be tempted to cough up if you grew bugger grip sideburns as well, but just a 'tache. Cripes, in certain parts of London they're almost trendy nowadays.
the swimming pool at Oasis and most bars on Old Compton St spring to mind

myp · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 15:54

Seriously, that is one of the funniest picture I've ever seen. Keep donating, people!

Yes, that's excellent.

Doctor Glyndwr · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 32624

I might put that pic on my iPhone and assign it to my entire phonebook as their contact picture.

grim, people don't necessarily look like idiots just because they have mustaches. They have to have a tendency to look like idiots. Some even look cool with it, e.g. Tom Selleck and my dad

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 16:06

The pringle man and Alan Rickman also *swoon*

At one time a mustache was even considered fashionable:

DBSnappa · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 16:16

It's a cultural thing in this country
Moustaches have been out of fashion as a standalone facial adornment for nearly 30 years here. Van Dykes and goatees have replaced them, though I think they're both double chin merkins, personally

My Dad grew a von Hipper. He actually looked quite smart.

Monies paid!

Curiosity · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 16:47

Grim... is going to bring all those things to Shunt hidden in his moustache!

I spent 10 minutes choosing my facial fuzz in Fallout 3. God alone knows how long it'd take in real life.

RuySan · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 3542

Mustaches are having a comeback in this country since 2/3 years ago among the vintage/alternative crowd. I wish i had the guts to grow one.

There are an astonishing number of face-fuzz configurations in Fallout 3.

Did you finally decide on the Freddie Mercury 'Cock Duster' in the end?

MrChris · **Joined:** 1st Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 30498

Massive Manchurian effort in the end. I wasn't planning on dusting cocks in the game - I do that enough in real life. etc.

Grim... · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:03

£201?
Oh dear...

Aaaah - who do you remind me of there? Famous person.

Cras · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 49239

Reminds me of David Arquette.

EDIT - The 'tache does, not Grim...

Do you have a mirror on the wall in front and behind you?

JBR · **Joined:** 2nd Jun, 2008 **Posts:** 3290

That is some impressive growth. And beautifully trimmed - now you have a new life-skill, or something.

Cras · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 49239

Actually, yeah! Didn't you start growing it 3 days ago?!

MrChris · **Joined:** 1st Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 30498

He was starting with a full goatee, though, right?

Here's a clue:

Jill Dando

Cras · **Joined:** 30th Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 49239

I'm fairly sure Jill Dando didn't look much like that at all.

GazChap · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:16

Reminds me of:

I DON'T NEED NO GUN, JOHN.

I'm sure I've seen a film (comedy I think) with a guy that looked like Grim...in it
I'll try and see if I can find it
EDIT: Is that plaster in your hair???

Malc · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:21

Daley Thompson?

If you squint?

lots?

Malc

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:22

It actually suits you. Mercury.

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:26

Found this guy
He's no the one I was on about-but still, if grim... gets a beard this is him

Rufus Hound is his name and he's a comedian

Dimrill · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:27

That man is blonde. And also all over Dave at the moment. (Not MrDave, of course.)

Grim... · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:27

Oh God! Gareth Hale?

No. Big office, no employees.

Plaster in my hair? Er... No?

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:29

He's got a lovely face though

Ah, I think it's the screen...

Malc · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:30

If it's not plaster it's either highlights, dandruff, or artifices in the image...

Malc

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Nov 04, 2008 18:31

Ah, it's not just me then! I thought I'd buggered up the laptop then....Gaz would kill me

Hmm, I think you've just set up mirrors to impress clients during tele-conferences.
