First the Chinese Government found a way to make me wear shoes and now – admittedly after my wife used the wonderfully manipulative statement, “I’ve never seen your real face” – they’ve made me shave for the first time in about 10 years.
I know no one cares, but it has made my wife and Mum happy [read: laugh] so in-keeping with the view that this blog can act as some sort of ‘time capsule love-letter’, I have had to post it. Hey it bothers me a damn sight more than it could ever bother you so deal with it.
PS: I now know why I didn’t shave for so long. Contrary to popular belief, it’s not because I’m follicaly challenged, it’s because I now look like a big 3 year old kid and I’m fed up of being constantly stared at … pointed at … and laughed at. Even more than usual.
PPS: Yes, that is the wife doing her best Angelina Jolie / Ronald McDonald impression above my right shoulder. Weird sod, but she’s my weird sod.

fuck me, this is lower than low but on the bright fucking side, at least your new/ragged 3 year old face suits the childish ranting bollocks that comes out your gob.

Comment by Rob Mortimer February 5, 2011 @ 12:45 amdesperate fucking dan? well he eats a fuckload of pies and is desperate but not in the fucking dan league. can we all stop being so nice and supportive to him. ok so he wrote some half decent posts last week but you dont know what hes like to work with, hes a fucking nightmare troublemaker and we must never fucking forget that when we write our comments.
Comment by andy@cynic February 5, 2011 @ 7:29 amWhether you meant it or not Ciaran, I take your comment as a huge compliment but alas, Andy’s comment is probably closer to the truth which is why the beard is coming back and this time it’ll be modeled on ZZ Top.

Comment by Rob February 6, 2011 @ 10:36 amyup – I was prompting you from the wings. 🙂
Comment by lauren February 6, 2011 @ 3:04 pmIn this day and age, people will find even more ways to see, and show, a brand’s real face. Brands can’t hide it. #transparency #Wikileaks #empoweredconsumer #resistanceisfutile #digital(r)evolution #KennethColePR

Comment by andy@cynic February 7, 2011 @ 6:17 amnot missing your planning bollocks, i just hate the idea youre getting paid to officially do fuck all.
I’m about to go for lunch. A long lunch. With my wife. Because I’m still on holiday. Yessssss …
On the downside, I actually have to spend tomorrow working, even though I am not going back to work till Wed, so I hope that pleases your petty, vindictive little mind.

Comment by Rob February 7, 2011 @ 5:57 pmI know that comment was from you Mr Groper – and thank you, I need to buy some more and you might have just found me the outlet.
See, even when you’re trying to not be helpful, you’re helpful.
Now isn’t it time you did the next A[P]SOTW?? I’m sure it’s your turn.

Comment by Marcus February 8, 2011 @ 4:42 amif its involving 2 bald planning fucks, anything that stops you having to see eachothers faces is definitely the best option to keep your fucked up love alive.
