Black hair: Four men share their beard stories

Never trust a man with a beard beardos the lot of em

"Who actually Gives a Flying Foook ....."

you do

seriously, you care so much about this that you started a thread on a betting site forum.


gawd knows why though??

my guess is that you get some sort of onanistic gratification from being outraged by insignificant weird stuff

The thread is regarding The Shyte that the BBC put up on their Website ,People on here are well aware of what I post regarding that  , and that I think it is a waste of the TV TAX

By the way this is a Chit chat forum ...NON BETTING

At least you agree it is Wierd Stuff , that you May well be paying for . HTH

I don't even understand why people go to the BBC website anymore? Complain about them all day but tune in to them daily. Not just casemoney, most of the posters here do it.

There's no Adds on there , Plus I like to have a Moan

I admit to turning sky on whilst waking up - heard a posh lady with a nice scarf telling us where we voted wrongly  - couldn't find the soccerball preview button quick enough.

bbc I put it on the other day coz there was supposed to be a confrontation only to see the mail and mirror guys
listened to them for 5 and switched off

I sure keep up to date with the televisual propaganda

how did that election thingy go by the way

just got a load more Ipa   and Proper Job in

looks like its going to be a good 'un

Defeating the Object really

Rarely watch BBC on TV do listen to World service

that line up of 4 is it from the hackney gazette or something?

AND  have you seen robbie savages HAIR   - he's a lover  ooooh!!!

Bloke on the End looks like BUM FLUFF

it is a  weird piece  but there are loads of  different pieces on the BBC web pages which are actually quite good on the whole even though BBC produces complete rubbish TV, it's articles are generally top notch

Website Best News site , Content can be Iffy to say the least ..

There is a sizable piece about how an Iranian woman, who drowned while trying to break into the uk, was only coming here to help Iranians. I don't know what the beeb think our reaction should be..........or maybe I do.

Women, gays, trannies, muslims, blacks.  Without them the BBC website would just be a video of some tumbleweed on a continuous loop.

The articles says 'Four black men come together to talk about their beard journeys and the struggles they have had'.

Yes growing a beard is such a struggle, just don't shave for a few days and hey presto you have a beard.

Is the Beard a Dangerous thing ??  The Yorkshire Ripper and Rapists , Lot of beards involved

I loathe beards

And why is it that the younger male generation seems to have them much more than our generation?

I did grow a beard earlier this year, I was a bit shocked just how quickly it grew and how grey it was as well. Some people liked it on me but I just couldn't get on with it at all. Now  2 or  3 days maximum and I have to have a dig in the grave.

i agree with annie. dunno why anyone would make the effort(its a lot more tiresome having one), and cannot believe any woman would like someone whom had one. none of my million lady friends like em either. a mystery to me. the idiotic gaylord narcissism of the hipster crowd is truly tragic. no wonder the interweb and wine bars are full of women moaning about the the lack of decent geezers and the preponderance of wanchors and fairies. there seems little in-between

I don't mind 'designer stubble ' though or 'five o clock shadow'but when it gets to a certain length urgh!

five oclock shadow is acceptable. some people cant help it. any more is lazy or display

women like them ... simples

a lot of blokes with very weak or feminine jawlines  grow them usually to cover up ...   i still say light stubble is the best if you have a somewhat decent jawline

i will wager women dont like you coach. the fact you even contemplate 'light stubble' or 'decent jawlines', anathema to any geezer, suggests you are a raving pansy. and a crashing bore, the worst thing a man can be, according to my legion of lady fans

i am a spitting image of Rhod Gilbert apparantly but haven't mastered his accent  ... a day doesn't pass when people don't mention it  ...but is a good conversation starter

my jawline is pretty good btw

the secret is to look after your TEETH

if they go your jaw will resemble that of a 92 year old grandmother i have it on good authority

I'm in with the in crowd
I go where the in crowd goes

I'm in with the in crowd
And I know what the in crowd knows
Any time of the year, don't you hear?
Dressin' fine, makin' time

We breeze up and down the street
We get respect from the people we meet
They make way day or night
They know the in crowd is out of sight

aside from your inability to spell simple words like 'apparently', using super-gay pop songs to express your teenage emotions rather than your own words is an indication of your intellectual ineptitude

calm down dear !

i could cheat and use spell checker like everyone else 

apparently is quite a hard word to spell  ...a bit like character and phychology

reely? hard to spell? if you need spellchecker for common words you is even more dim than i thought. quite an achievement.

Did Daddy pay for your private schooling ?   bless

Don't tell me , you have a really dull job in IT ,teaching or accoutnacy  maybe 
intelligence doesn't really have anything to do with spelling though does it ,Einstein ?


and even  more bizaare ,why all the attacks on me ?  are you some sort of mental case ? 

accountancy ...before you pipe up again 

now go run  and enjoy the evening with all your Daily Mail reading  friends on here 

you actually sound like Alan Partridge 

i wouldnt nomrally bother with such asinine bollox but the assumption that anyone critical of poor use of language is middle-class, and to be derided, is central to the decline of english teaching.

fyi i left school at 13, and never went back. never sat an exam. wanchor

'asinine'   wtf  ?   

that's a new word on me ...are you English Mr Grappler ?

Spot on annie with the propensity for so many men to wear heavy growth these days.  What is that all abut?  Two days growth is more than enough for me before it's uncomfortable and I feel like a slob.

well i'm glad you have found success  .

fyi I am also a pro -gambler albeit  with modest gains  but still make enough to survive ,but only since around 2005  ....  I used to run a small business but failed  and before that ,  a Postman .

I'm still not sure of all the attacks though ...this forum is littered with atrocious  English ..so why pick on me ?

'the idiotic gaylord narcissism of the hipster crowd'

you sound like an intolerant bully grappler ...you fit in well on here

what is narcisstic about wearing a beard ffs ?  not that i am a  hipster you understand ...i am a normal run of the mill bloke

'full of women moaning about the the lack of decent geezers and the preponderance of wanchors and fairies. there seems little in-between'

surely then that's to your advantage ?  otherwise that's their problem ,not yours  ...why are you so worried about pleasing women ?

as far as i'm concerned attractive  women will find their own way in life  ..they're (generally) more interested in a mans wallet/career then anything  ...but maybe you haven't noticed

only pu$$ies wear beards  - or those seeking to convert or just blend in with what the shifting demographic is creating

happy winterval ( while we are still allowed it)

i nearly posted a reply to this garbage.

you're a funny man grappler

i reckon some bearded gay hipster in a trendy bar tried chatting him up this weekend  and he hasn't gotten over it   ...bless his wee cotton socks 

Jonathan Meades  ...that's the bloke i was trying to think of   ...YOU'RE busted Grappler  ...  it's you isn't it grappler ?

admit it grappler

Jesus Christ, Geoffrey Capes, Ian Botham, Brian Blessed, Anne Widecombe, Gandalf, Osama Bin Laden....

Your boys took one hell of a beating.

blend in to the background  but make sure you know a few quotes from the book

or just simply convert

will save a lot of hassle in the future

Beavis and Butt head wore beards for one episode  .... well , stuck on pubic hairs,  in attempt to impress the ladies . 
  'Beavis , remember we have to act interesting or they will think we're all looks' 

where's grappler  ?

we  want grappler
we  want grappler

when do we want him ?

now

come back grappler

Jesus Christ, Geoffrey Capes, Ian Botham, Brian Blessed, Anne Widecombe, Gandalf, Osama Bin Laden....

Yabba Yasmin, the Abbottapottaomos

Grappler, we love you
Grappler, we do
Though you may be far away
We think of you
There's no one quite like Grappler
And I know you will agree
That he always is a friend to you
And he's a friend to me

There's no one quite like Grappler

relax bonkbuster. im back now, and laggo again. jonathan meades indeed. i like him. never jnew what he was on about cos i am unejucated but he sounded clever to me. sadly, the beeb isnt interested in him any more, so he decamped to france. i last heard him on r3, and he made some peculiar choices, as you might expect

(wags tail)

Meades was OK , watchable just  .. a bit too pompous though ,he seemed to like upsetting people ,everyone  in fact .

I didn't know the meaning of half the words he used tbf but still easily managed to follow his narrative  ...you would know what the words meant by the way he used them and how they fitted  the sentence .   

He was probably good at crosswords .

still on the iplayer. off now to terrorise the helots. be big
