Because the whole world is sitting home on zoom or netflix or whatever stressing internet's infrastructure.

Me: I wonder if I could sew a reasonably effective face mask myself; too bad I don't really have any fabric
Also me: owns a tote bag full of other tote bags

Anyone else growing a quarantine beard? Never grown a beard because I always hit an awkward patch at week 3 and give up.

Feel like now is the time, since I’ll be home for at least a month. If it looks dumb no one will ever know.

Also curious if we will see a bunch of buzz cuts after this is all over.

I usually have a decent-sized beard and it was a good 2.5-3 inches long going into the quarantine, but I buzzed it off and am using this time to try out a mustache.

I am (trying). I have never made it past the three week mark - which I just hit. So far, it is pretty damn hideous.

I've had stubble for several years. Thinking of going contrarian and shaving daily.

You'll end up touching your face more

Related, but I was overdue for a haircut when we went into social distancing and the place where I got my haircut closed. I usually get my hair cut every month. Now there is a very good chance I will go 3-4 months with no haircut

This is going to get hilarious

It’s not a terrible experiment. I think people get haircuts too often for the most part. Not a big deal and getting an extra haircut is harmless to yourself and society.

But why would anyone need a haircut every week or two if he is not in the military? Seems like a waste of time and money.

 

[Coldsnap]

I'm just gonna wear Carhartt mainline when the whole global economic system fails in a couple months from now. Just a random fashion thought.

In Midnight’s Children, Salmon Rushdie wrote of the ‘worms’ that sprout from a balding man’s head, terrible side hairs that grow several times faster than what’s on top. That’s one reason. Mine can be lopped with a steady hand and the surety of my razor; others aren’t so lucky.
