Yeah, I mean I'm lucky because I grow a full beard. *I've had
   grown men compliment it. Envy was common from those who can't
   grow [most men can't] but one day, a guy got out of a car about
   20-30 years older than me. Shocking white hair, amazing beard.

   He looked up at me after getting out of the car and said, "Hey,
   nice beard". I replied, "You too, man". He nodded, I nodded, and
   off we went on our separate ways, never to be seen again.

   Brotherhood of the beard I guess. Strange thing. I just grow it
   because I _hate_ shaving and a dog trimmer disguised as a "Wahl
   hair trimmer" for humans is all I need.
