The Aussie blokes I mean. Why do they think it is cool do wear these big long ZZ top style beards scraggy as you like all over the place while the top of their head is as bald as a baby's bum?

They look like bloody idiot's.

I work with a few of these specimens and they are ok blokes but they just look weird.

Ick sounds horrible! Is this in a capital city???? Or are you in the outback?

tiredwithtwins

suppose its for the same reason uk blokes do it.
its their 'thing', like being a goth or a rocker or a mod.

go with the flow mate........grow one yourself.

Its the "herding" instinct (or should that be flock?). Those with sheep brains feel they have to be seen as part of a flock.

Just like having to buy the "right" car, wear the "right" clothes.

It's that Aussie equivalent of the shaven headed pommie with the football shirt and the Burberry baseball hat. Get em everywhere.

I too have noticed the bald heads and long scraggy beards, i have also noticed alot of MULLET haircuts :scared: not sure which is worse

Welcome to Australia. The land of the "buisness at the front, party at the back"

Sounds like I'll fit right in!

The pic attached was taken a couple of months ago (I'm front centre) so I've had time to grow mine since then, I've got to about 2 inches below the chin at the moment.

Check out my boss, front left, glasses. Biggest incompetent bullshitter I've ever met!

Another common Oz facial fungus is the long pair of sideburns shaved into bizzarre shapes, yuk

cadman

I seem to remember when that was your avatar and you denied it was you?

Or the flavour saver "imperial" beard just under the top lip.

renth

I don't think I ever denied it was me. Apart from if I was trying to impress a female, then I'd deny it's me.
