Thanks for the comments. Only thing that kind of sucks about having long hair and a beard is the world is full of judgemental ###### that'll take that as a sign of anything from me being a lazy bum to being a druggie, and when it comes to getting a job, that can really suck. I've already had to turn down 2 jobs because they don't allow beards and nearly had to quit one for my long hair. It's frustrating, because a lot of places only allow hair above the shoulder line on males or so, but have no regulations for female hair length. I know this is a bit more extreme, but in regards to man workplaces not allowing beards, even neat and well kempt ones....how would women feel if they were told they had to shave their head to work where they wanted, otherwise they wouldn't be hired? Personally I'm suprised jobs are able to regulate something such as facial hair to that degree. I can understand it if I'm going to work at Best Buy and be a salesman representing their company not to have a big, bushy hippie beard, but I don't see why an evenly trimmed, neatly groome dbeard should be a problem. I simply don't ever want to shave in my life again, except on rare occaissons.

Don't worry about callin me good looking, I appreciate that from a guy, straight or gay, as much as I do from a girl.

Metro...I saw the picture of the guy from smashmouth and I was just gonna say, wow, you look like the guy from smashmouth. Then I read your post. Hahah.

Anyways, thanks again. It's nice to hear people tell me my long hair looked good (And these people not being 15 year old girls trying to impress me by dressing gothic and listening to metal bands they think i listen to) as opossed to what I normally heard. I don't recall a day going bye that I went to school without someone saying something negative about my long hair.

I hear ya. I want to grow a beard but sometimes the future employer would just take one look at me and say I couldn't get that job. And I kept my beard well-groomed. Also, I had long hair in the summer but since then I worked in one play for the University Theatre and had to cut it but that I did because I know long hair wouldn't have fit to my character's profile.

Aaanyways, here's the latest pic from me, we had a party last night and that's me with my friend. I'm quite drunk there already, as you can see. :p

Heh, nice picture.

Yeah, I'm the type to stand up for **** I feel needs to be stood up for, like I think it's ridiculous that shaving is even something schools and workplaces can enforce to the degree they do. Hell, I'm the reason we can have facial hair at my school now, so I know change is possible. There comes a time however, when I'll have to choose between working at some local computer repair shop or a career as a networking puppet, and the latter might require shaving. If I'm going to be supporting a family, which I do plan to do, then some beliefs will just need to be compromised I guess.

Dude, Raum...

Long hair is badass and it fits you well man. If I could grow long hair I would but when my hair gets a certain length, it starts to curl and look really bad. I don't have the stereotype that people with long hair are buttrockers and what not. In fact, I am a hardcore buttrocker and probably don't look like one. I rock out so hard and listen to tons of different metal, thrash, hardcore, etc...

Some people just look better certain ways, and long hair is your thing dude for sure. Rock on.

    • The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.
    • It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
    • Microsoft, totally not confusing /s 25H2 - Current for non-Arm based Windows 26H1 - Current for Arm based Windows 26H2 - Only for non Arm Windows
    • After I installed those, my older but capable Win 11 laptop (16GB RAM) reported it as 26H2 26300.8697. Then I installed it on my big laptop (128GB RAM! Hehe sorry), it reported it as 25H2 26220.8690. Ugh. Do I have to switch Insiders channels from Release to Beta?
