 Come on, the only reason to grow a full beard is if you have an ugly face you want to cover.
laziness is also a very valid reason

Then shave once a week like me. Takes five minutes of your week.
 
 And is there a chick in the world who digs a guy with a long, flowing beard? Sam Beam, what a sexy man. As my wife says when I try to play an Iron and Wine cd, "Oooh, please don't play that fucking freak."

that review is far more "look at me, i know alot about music and can make fun of hipsters!" than it is an actual assessment of the show.
 
 i hate writers like that.

Where is the writer making fun of hipsters? I mean, he rightfully should, but I dont' see where he does it.

Wait, why is Sam Beam a freak?  'Cuz he has a semi-long beard?  Seriously, that makes him a freak????

Dropping Nick Drake in a review is no longer defined as knowing a lot about music.

Beards keep the cold wind off too.

Is that the reason your mom gives for not shaving hers?

Well, technically, Sean Daly took Segal's place, and J Freedom took Daly's place.  But yes, close enough.
 
 ALL of his writing is very hipper-than-thou, with more emphasis placed on wordplay and cutesy jokes than on actual content.  Since the Post only searches back 2 weeks, this link should bring up some of the best-of-du-lac:
