Yeah. Pretty sure this is just two new memes pasted together. Not an old school one.
What would you have me do about it?
I used to know a guy named Ed back in the early-mid '80's who was a professional college student. We were both attending the local junior college. I was about 19 or 20, he was about 30. He was tall, had long straight dark hair and a full, fairly long beard with a fairly prominent hawk nose. One day, his parents finally got tired of him avoiding adulthood and declared they were no longer going to support him and he had to get a job. He showed up to classes with a short hair cut and no beard. We all had to do a double-take. He seriously had no chin, and combined with that big hawk nose, his profile had become so comically different from what it had been that everyone who knew him was noticeably shocked by the transformation. He went from having a long profile with a prominent nose to a little round head with a huge beak sticking out. He went from a moderately imposing figure to a sadly goofy looking character just like that. I watched a couple of different people just kind of blurt out stuff like "eww grow it back!" etc. It was crazy to see how everyone's perception of him changed overnight...
Moral of the story: adulting sucks and beards rule.
But, that's what beards are for, right? So that you can adjust the shape of your face to something you like.
using a beard to hide a double chin is a tale as old as time
George Lucas perfected this.
