Ahhh the hipster mustache....I am so over it. Granted, I am a little biased due to overexposure from riding the L train everyday. For those of you not in NYC - the L is essentially the hipster limousine and we all know that NO ONE loves an ironic mustache like a trust fund artist living in Williamsburg. I mean the stache has even crept its ugly little self into the Olympics...
Exhibit A: Mathieu Crepel. Mathieu is a French snowboarder who is not only sporting a Sharpie stache, but he is sporting a Sharpie stache OVER his actual mustache. Yowzers.
All I have to say is that a mustache is best left to the grown folks - Burt Reynolds, Tom Selleck, Salvador Dali, 70's porn stars... I thought that the ethos behind hipsterdom was to be apathetic about everything in life, from showering to eating to getting a real job. However, that mustache of theirs always seems to be pomaded into place perfectly. This requires much effort - now I see why you couldn't make time to shower.
Most importantly ladies - the stache is no longer gender specific. For a mere $10 (I love Etsy) you too can rock an Inspector Clousseau inspired necklace. I like that...I like equality.
Hot? Or not? I don't even know anymore.
Wow! All I can grow is a Mustache and it took 27 years to grow. I'm just waiting for the rest of my face to hit puberty so I can grow the next trend, a WIZARD BEARD! 2012, Merlin is gonna be so in.
