mustache love
whither the mustache?

the article says:

the mustache is now generally thought of as the realm of homosexuals, white trash, child molesters, cops, and uncles.

it laments the loss of this masculine symbol of days past then says:

Recently, however, the style has made urban inroads by way of hipster icons such as photographer Terry Richardson

haha! so silly. have they ever seen terry richardson? seen his work? “homosexuals, white trash, child molesters, cops, and uncles” is exactly the grouping of words which his mustachioed mug brings to mind in point of fact.

and anyhow, it’s not the passe image of tom selleck and… dabney coleman? who pose a barrier to the return of the ‘stache it’s the adoption by brooklyn hipsters! no self respecting man would ever allow himself to appear in cahoots stylistically with those irony obsessed, past-aping, doofuses!

saw a great gag on a simpsons rerun the other nite. the dog (santa’s little helper, who got his odd name as a losing and unwanted greyhound) has shown himself a coward, so bart tries to tutor him in how a brave dog would act. bart pops a rin tin tin tape into the vhs; it’s a wartime flick, and the heroic german shepherd latches on to adolf hitler’s ass and won’t let go. santa’s little helper sees the mailman outside and attacks him because he looks just like adolf hitler in a postal uniform. the mailman lies on the ground, getting mauled, and says aloud to himself: “grow a mustache, the wife said. it’ll be handsome, she said.”
