Though I am all for the smoothchins, I found this sentence entertaining- "'Wow, that clean shaven guy looks manly as feth', said no one ever."

In my opinion, when it comes to facial hair, you've either got it or you don't. If you do, go out and rock it, if you don't, don't try. Like "jazz goatee" guy, just shave. Freddie Mercury guy, don't shave.

Allergies to metal on my skin means no watches, I use my little Nokia as a modern pocket watch, but an actual pocket watch would be cool,.
