Fun With Facial Hair (or... A Farewell to My Beard)

Half the fun of growing a beard is shaving it off, so I thought I would shave out some big chops and keep the fu-man-chu (?) thing and look tough. Never done that before. Turns out I don't look tough, I look like an idiot with no chin. Wore it to hungry tonight like that and was told "oh, wow...", "that's sleazy", "you're so dirty", "you look like Earl from that new tv show", "you look like a used car salesman", and "you look like a pirate". I think there were a few more that I happily forgot. Then I got home and decided to try a handlebar mustache.
