    I was on a multi-week survival camping (no amenities) gathering in the middle of the forest and there was a guy with a perfectly twirled mustache. How vain do you have to be to keep that up under such conditions?

      I know a few guys that would do something like that in the backcountry as a joke. the challenge is most of the fun.

      Baseball pitchers do it to throw off the batter. I saw a pitcher with a monkey tail beard once.

        I had to search “monkey tail beard”, and I’m glad I did.

        Then there’s this guy, he knows this was a mistake.

        What if you start off one side of the mustache as a twirled one like the image, then the other side is a handle bar, down and along the jaw line, up over the ear and down and around to the bottom middle of the back of the head to a rats tail (with a bald head).

          I worked with a guy who suggested something similar to this for a Movember growth.

          He described it as an asymmetrical moustache.

          Can’t even contemplate the confidence on pulling it off whist taking public transport.

      Seconding what the other person said lmao. Mine looked like that for a while because I’d just start fidgeting with it the moment my hands were idle.
