The worst kinds of people.

I'm not sure what they are to be honest , like a fake hipster i suppose . The worlds littered with them . Not sure what all those beards are about . Dubai Marina's like a fu**ing giant real ale festival !!!

Italians look pretty cool without socks not Estate Agents from Slough !

back on topic - I am pleased to report that 1762 does a cream tea.

I go from sporting a beard to being just stubble. I'm rarely (read: never) clean shaven...mainly because I'll look like a fat 12 year old.

But anyone who puts wax or special oils or cares for their beard to much is definitely a massive knob jockey.

Same here but thats because a) i'm a geologist and so I can get away with looking scruffy in the office and b) because I'm massively lazy.

I do quite like getting my beard / stubble shaped when I have a hair cut tho.

Oh goodness no, I go for trims separate to hair cut when it's too long to be arsed to do it myself. But never get the shaping done, just cut down to length and I tidy the edges for myself. Got it done once and a cabbie asked if I was Syrian. It was a low point.

Ha ha ha! I am constantly asked if i am lebanese, and as my lebanese ladies are all immaculate and groomed beautifully, I take it as a compliment (except for the weirdo who shouted at me in arabic because they thought i was lying when i couldn't speak it and help them).

Fine. The truth is this; cabbie asked if I was Syrian. I said with a smile, No. Before I could say British, he nodded knowingly and I instantly assumed he was going to suggest something like Lebanese or something very similar and close.

Nope. Next he suggested, believe it or not that I was, and I quote (roughly); "Afghani/Pakistani". Caught me by surprise.

See mines generally stubble short anyway (too long and its a mix of ginger and grey ). As such, i'm quite partial to a shaping. Thankfully there's no confusing me with a Syrian.....

I get confused for German every now or then, which pisses the hell out of me.

Is it because you speak aggressively:

I get confused with being British, annoyingly I have to tell them I am English. No inbred Celtic in me

It's my hair. Apparently I have German hair.

I blame it on my Swiss great-great-grandfather.
