Movember

Good morning.

You failed to write anything, again!
It's the second time in what, two months? You can't keep doing this.
We're writing this together. And if we're going to be writing this together, we have to both write.
So get it together!
I don't have a lot of time every Tuesday either. Like today. I have to be at the university in an hour and a half, and then sit there on lectures until half past eight. (Then again, I have nothing at all tomorrow, so maybe I can't complain.) But I still always write something, because that's what we agreed. You haven't even done any extra posts, and we're still waiting for that one Cinnamon-illustration-extra-one that you had to have up months ago.

Ok, to the point.

It's November again, and it's been November for long enough that you really start seeing people having moustaches. Because someone somewhere has decided it's a good idea for men to grow moustaches in November.
And I can say, I really don't like that.
Before I go any further I want to note that when I'm talking about moustaches, I'm talking about just moustaches. A moustache with some kind of a beard is a completely different matter.
Ok, so my point is this: moustaches do not look good. On pretty much anyone. Well, on anyone. Of course, if someone has a moustache always, you get used to it so it's not so bad any more. But as a rule, if you're thinking "should I grow a moustache?" (and yes, I realise that you aren't capable of doing that, but you get the point), the answer is always NO. You should not grow a moustache.
I actually saw on facebook, that someone had done a study about facial hair. They had taken three pictures of the same man, one with a beard (+moustache, obviously, and not a huge beard), one with just a moustache, and one clean shaven. Then they showed the pictures to groups of women. I suppose only one picture to any woman. The results were something like this:

The clean shaven man was most commonly seen as trustworthy and nice.
The one with the beard was thought to be sexy.
The one with just the moustache was creepy.

And that was all the same guy.

So yeah, science says don't grow a moustache. Unless you want to look creepy. Or you grow a beard to go along with it.
Of course there are people who a beard doesn't suit either. But I'm not going to get into that, because the question of if someone should have a beard, and what kind of a beard, depends so much on the person, and what kind of a beard will grow if they do start growing one.

But yeah, I don't like moustaches.

On another note, I'm a little confused about the fact that for the first time in almost two years my hair is starting to be so long I have to actually brush it every now and then.
I don't like that too much at the moment, because it's starting to be so cold that brushing the hair makes it all electric and stick to my face and hands and everywhere, and I ran out of conditioner some time in the summer and haven't bothered to buy more, even though I know what would help.
Because apparently I don't at the moment have any bigger problems in my life. And that's kinda nice.
