mustach + no beard = one of a few things...
balding child molester
stuck in 1975 aging ex disco/porn king
fat hairy biker dude with an origional black sabbath concert t-shirt almost covering his beergut
creepy 80s guy who still tries to pick up 18 yr olds in his brown camaro
cop
I do not approve of any of the above. Either cut it all off or grow it all out. one or the other means you spend too much time worrying about it in the mirror like a girl.
ALthough you do need a certain physical presence to pull it off.
One day I hope to be able to pull off the 'Kaiser Bill'

I tried in vain to grow a beard and moustache combo over Christmas period but failed miserably. I think I am destined to be one of those unfortunates who are never able to express their fondness for facial hair.
Shame really because it is one of the fundamental tenets of the Chap manifesto:

Sometimes the stupidity/humor of certain facial hair style is half the fun. It isn't like it is a permanent alteration
I find it an interesting observation that on a forum in which some many people where/are so quick to defend tattoos (some of which are just as cheesy/stupid as any mustache or beard pictured here) and poo poo anyone who objected to them that we have people this up in arms about facial hair (which can be removed or altered in minutes).
Does not compute.
IF you want to grow a silly/stupid/massive mustache or beard, go ahead. What is the harm really?

I kid Since i avoid bushlands that is But we're not that bad... are we?
Mustaches tend to look creepy on almost anyone in this day and age.
Goatees are horrible and should be reserved for evil twins only...to avoid confusion.
I usually rock a well groomed beard through the winter months as I get crazy razor rash that I haven't found a good way to avoid, but it gets too itchy and drives me crazy after a while
If it didn't drive me crazy I would rock the beard all year long

For sure!
I've been rocking this one for a couple of years. Once people understand I'm not too serious about it it's a source of fun.
Sorry to shatter your world. But you look like a profile stereoypical sociopath.
Deliverance anyone?

Sorry to shatter yours avatarform but I think he already stated that he knows it is silly and that is the fun of having it.
Lighten up....
The fun of an intentionally bad mustaches is to grow the cheesiest/silliest WTF inducing one possible and watch the reactions of people like yourself. The stupid things that people say about them and the fact that they don't get the joke is half the fun...
I grow a beard, then shave it about once a month. Despite being in my 30's I cannot grow a decent stache, I am half native american and am lucky to have any facial hair at all!

Except that first impressions last...
Others who see him for the first time will immediately attach similarly negative connotations.
It may be fun for him, but it may also lead to missed opportunities and negative consequences... eg. legal profiling.

Trust me, in my line of work it's actually a benefit.
"Who was that weird dude with the moustach on the meeting?"
"Oh, that was <name>, the graphic designer."
"Ah, figures. Artists... "
Don't worry, I'm a grown up man and can handle any negative connotations the 'stasch gives.
First months was kinda weird though. I had no idea that the trucker-stasch had such effect on people. Now it's pretty easy to see which ones are weirded out by it and defuse any "Are you a sociopathic serial killer?" stuff. (Or enhance it when teen-girls are freaked out by it. I'm going to hell >_<
I wouldn't recommend having this type of facial hair if you are working in sales though. And trim it down before the first meeting with important stuck-up clients. The Lemmy-look doesn't go well with financial types. (Or just let your creative director do the talking)
ETA: Burt, although he had awesome facial hair in Deliverance, didn't have a 'stasch going below his mouth IIRC?
