#Movember Update, Day 9: Asian henchman #6 in training
Wednesday, November 9, 2011 
It's been 9 days since I started trying to coax some whiskers in the name of prostate cancer. Let me just say that I've been made fun of online as well as in public (I spoke at Blogworld like this!), but you know what? The weaker my facial hair, the more opportunity I get to tell people why I'm doing this. Besides the "I wanna look like an Asian bad guy from an 80's action flick," of course.
I know my other Movember teammates have been kicking some ass on the moustache front as well as the money raising front, and I'm falling painfully behind on both. So help an Asian bad guy out, won't you? My Movember donation page is here: http://us.movember.com/mospace/2051428/
And yes, I know that technically, goatees aren't allowed. However, I read the rules, and they clearly define a goatee as a moustache that connects with the beard. Seeing as I have zero follicles that can complete said connection, I'm well within the guidelines.
I also stopped cutting my hair. Anything to distract your vision from the struggle going on atop my lip is a public service to you. You're welcome.

This is totally hardcore.
You completely look like you could hit someone in the kneecaps with a pipe and mean it.
ZDub wins for best comment. AGAIN.
PS: You managed to pull of rugged *and* sinister. STOP DOING THINGS BETTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE, LIN.
Please donate everyone! My eyes are shrieking in pain, make it worthwhile :P Jim looks like those magnet toys where you drag the disturbing bits around the cartoon face.
You look a lot like the gang members I went to school with in the OC. You're making it work, dude.
I don't know, you're rocking' the badass Asian look. You need a good Bond villain name though.
Most terrifying villain ever. I'm waiting to see you on a poster with Jean-Claude Van Damme.
LOVE IT... and the long hair does distract. Nice tactic.
Couldn't talk Anthony into doing it. He's a Yeti and could totally have rocked a Tom Selleck stache in a couple of weeks. *sigh*
I actually think the stache looks good. And you totally look like a bad guy. Put on a leather jacket and I bet people would go to the other side of the street when they saw you coming towards them. On a completely different note, I had to go get fitted for orthotics this week and forgot to shave my legs so I was all "gah. I forgot to shave my legs, I'm sorry" to the podiatrist and his response was "you don't really have a lot of hair anyway, it's sort of sporadic"
I kind of like that. We are sporadic hair growers.
You look pretty badass, but I think a cigarette constantly burning in your mouth would help too.
YoU need to post an updated picture! Daily, even!
Related, I can't wait for all the guys to stop looking like 70's porn stars.
Oh shit. That was money well spent. I'd pay to see another picture like that any day... It's like I can actually SEE you concentrating on forcing the hairs to GROW...
