Mustache May

"Mustache May" is in full swing. The guy's options were: (1) to grow a mustache, or (2) to pour a can of soup down their pants. Bryant was secretly excited to finally have a "legitimate" excuse to grow a mustache, so he ignored the soup option.

He has since gone above and beyond the call of duty. He took "Mustache May" to mean "Mullet and Mustache May." Yikes. Who wears a mullet of his own free will? ...not including Matt Lillywhite, who is allowed to wear a mullet any time he wants.

(In these pics, he still has a goatee... but the handlebars appeared shortly thereafter.)



Hmm.

I was a bit shocked the first time I saw him. Honestly, it took me a while to get over that shock. But I'm okay with it now. It has been character-building for me. I've certainly learned to stop caring about what strangers think. Plus, I've realized how awesomely fearless Be is. Come on... a mustache AND a mullet?! Now that takes guts. I truly do admire that in him.

And I suppose of all the extreme hairdos that Be has experimented with over the years, the mullet is by far the mildest.

Yep. Point taken.

So what's next? The guys have made some plans:

  • "No Groom June" (you can imagine what that entails)
  • "Tough-Guy July" (bald head plus facial hair)
  • "Big Bust August" (they wanted to be equal-opportunity.)

The scary part is that I think they're serious.

Oh goodness, give me strength. Looks like I'm in for some serious "character-building" over the next few months.

Actually, only Russ had the option of pouring soup down his pants.

And I took it. In the presence of two witnesses, I souped my pants. Chunky chicken noodle, too. Mmmm mmmm good!!

I am truly saddened to be missing big bust august. I can only imagine what role canned soups will play in that fun theme-month . . .
