Oh, eclaires! LOL

[FloFTW]

I'm researching plane tickets so I can show up to this and let them buy me craft beer.

[pixy0stix]

I can't stop laughing.

[FloFTW]

I am SO THERE for this trend. Add in tattoos and my panties are across the room.

[ijack]

I'm sending to my coworker

Mmm yeah

I love the look of a nice beard, but I can't get down with one in real life. I just can't. I want my husband to shave off his "winter beard" SO BAD.

[oliverboliverbutt]

I legit lol'd, out of a combination of ridiculous and i'd hit it.

My husband is always saying he's growing out his beard for the "harsh Tennessee winter".

Also, my husband has looked like this for forever! Before hipsters took over this look lol.

[mominatrix]

that's my H...

except he won't drink beer. he drinks hard cider, though, so that kinda makes him more a bar snob than craft beer drinkers.

[FloFTW]

I've never seen my husband without a beard. We've been together 11 years. Rar.

[msmerymac]

Finally, a trend I can get on board with.

All of the above describe my husband. In winter, at least.

Mine is just lazy and hates to shave. 

I told him that if it's still on his face on March 1st I'm going on a shaving strike. Lol. 

[pt716]

That list sounds like about 75% of the guys I have met in CO.

[pixy0stix]

This describes my husband not one bit. LOL!

[caramia]

My husband wants to be this guy but doesn't have the facial hair genetics. Such a sad situation

[lexxasaurus]

I'll be in Old Town in a few hours, I might have to stop by for the eye candy!

[darnkatz]

My husband is a lumbersexual. But you won't catch me ever saying that to him. LOL. He hates stupid fad terms.

He says the beard keeps the motorists away when he is cycling. I guess it's more intimidating. He's had more than a few people say that to him.

No. No it doesn't. It makes him a sad person who doesn't like beer.

The other predominant group of guys in this town are more like my H, enginerd extraordinaire.

We have a couple of crosses of the breed, and it confuses me. A lot. 

[2curlydogs]

H has had his beard for going on 10 years now. He grew it out in 2005.

He occasionally wears plaid but it's not "a thing" for him.

He enjoys craft beer. And occasionally brews his own.

He enjoys the outdoors. Don't know how rugged, but he hikes and shit.

He would look at me sideways if I called him a lumbersexual though. LOL

[Deleted]

My H had a beard for the past 15 years and never stopped wearing flannel since its heyday in the '90s.

He said he'll shave his beard when I shave my bush, so I guess the beard will stay.

Omg it sounds like this is my H's natural habitat. He's an enginerd! Lol.

That's a weenie little ax though, isn't it?

[ringstrue]

My coworker has a beard and wears plaid and has hiked. Does he really have to do craft beering too? Is there more criteria?

[mbcdefg]

MH has a beard, occasionally wears plaid/flannel, drinks/brews craft beer, and builds furniture.

I'm going to say, "Hey, Lumbersexual" when I get home tonight and see how he reacts.

[Chirp]

FI has a beard
He wears plaid on Sundays (church shirts)
He drinks beer of various sorts
He's outdoorsy... hikes, plays a bunch of sports, works outside

And he has hair like this (this is not FI... his beard is shorter and he's like twice that guys size):


I wouldn't call him a lumbersexual though. To me, they usually look like hipsters with beards and plaid instead of bowties and glasses. FI is no hipster.

There is a dude at work with hair like this. He's about my height, maybe an inch shorter, thin, pretty eyes, and dude, I could probably break him and like it lolol.
