Steve Jobs is dead (RIP). I don't have to imagine the world without him.

Can you imagine the world without Steve Jobs? I can. It'd be a place where people saved their money and had something to talk about other than how cool their expensive and low quality gadgets are.

You mean like Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak when they founded Apple, the most valuable company in the world?

Guys stop... you're making it very hard for Sleeper to pretend he's smart. It's killing him inside that you know better.

No I mean this Steve Jobs, not the one who was fired.

Right, because if successful people on average had beards, then there wouldn't need to be a month out of the year where men grow them to fit in. Everyone would be stressing people to have beards because beards = success.

I'll stick to the facts, you guys can continue to try and make exceptions the rule.

It's already been proven that your "facts" are completely bogus. lol....you've got nothing. :laugh:

Look at Warren Buffet, Steve Jobs(RIP), Bill Gates, Jerry Yang, etc.. Do they grow facial hair? No. You know someone that does? Michael Moore. I'll take the former over the latter.

That is a ridiculous statement. Walk onto ANY college campus and I bet you see MANY professors with facial hair -- especially beards. I bet you also see them wearing "business casual" attire. These guys are well educated, and many are also well respected in their departments.

Kind of like all the Civil War and Revolutionary War generals who had beards, moustaches, chops, and various other types of facial hair. What would America look like without those guys?

My dad is the same! Had it when he wrestled in college, the NCAA rules prohibited facial hair for wrestlers...it changed his junior year or so, the day after he shaved it he found out about the rule change. He grew it back and hasn't shaved it since.

This "Movember" movement is bringing the moustache back!

I agree! There are sooo many times he's had to do some crawfishing with his statements. I love when someone makes broad generalizations and then gets called out on it.

Number one, it's not something that's done to "fit in." Read up on why Movember is done...to raise funds and awareness for men's health, primarily prostate cancer. Just a clever way to do it. Good for whoever started it and whoever participates.

Number two, you have NO facts. You have not released ANY factual information regarding "successful" people and their lack of facial hair. Everything you have said has been refuted and you continue to crawfish on the rebuttals. Face it, facial hair is "in." There are many people who have various types of facial hair. There's nothing disrespectful or harmful about it.

I, like IWP, have a beard and will be attending: this on November 12.
