    Yup, it’s just more pronounced, much thicker. Guess I should have said it takes me a couple weeks to get a beard length to where it takes other people a couple months? But I didn’t think it was necessary?

    But since you’re just chiming in to be picky. Men do grow beards at different speeds, mine is on the higher end is what I’m implying.

    Average beard hair growth = ~0.3–0.5 mm per day, but some men’s can be as low as 0.2 mm/day and others 0.6 mm/day or more.

    A fast grower can have visible stubble by the evening (5 o’clock shadow).

    A slow grower might take 2–3 days before stubble is obvious.


  • I’ve had a beard almost the entire time since it sprouted. Briefly shaved for a few weeks because I was curious and realized it was horribly difficult my genetics make it to stay clean shaven. I’d grow stubble back at the end of the day.

    I have big hairy men in my family none of them could go beardless. I’m just glad I didn’t inherit the back and upper arm hair.




  • If your life is boring, it’s because you are living in a manner that isn’t enjoyable to you. Quit your shitty job and find a better one. Move to a different area if your current area it’s not pleasurable to you.

    That line shows a lack of experience. I find happy moments in life, but it’s certainly not all sunshine and rainbows. I’m currently living my life for the betterment of my family, to provide for them. I have to work a job I hate and I given up most of my free time for them. Do I hate them for it, absolutely not. Do I struggle mentally because of it, certainly.

    I can’t move because I can’t afford to find a home where I can move my family to. My mom lives with us, which makes it more complicated. Not easy to move from a low cost area to anywhere else and find the same space typically beyond my means.

    I can’t switch jobs, because I’d have to take almost a 25% to 50% cut in pay to do what “I want” which is a big hit when you’re just getting by already. I stick with it and keep it mentally as a thing I have to do to provide for others.

    I question this every now and than and my own well being is less than those around me. Sucks a lot, I make the best of it. Let me be negative about life it’s one outlet I have left, I keep myself going by taking my suffering and altering it into a form of dark humor to lessen the blow of reality.

    If you are able to do whatever you want when you want I envy your youth or your solidarity. You’ve obviously not had to make a sacrifice yet or you have been very fortunate. Don’t punch down at people who can’t make those choices.
