Moustaches are Healthy

[Permalink] Aug 16, 2012, 1:00:00 PM
One of our favorite beard-free friends sent this gem up the tipline recently. I hope you don't die of complications arising from your risky shorn lifestyle, Rick.

The Atlantic published a compelling article in their August issue on the assorted health benefits the moustached man enjoys. In an era of increasing political partisanship, a doubling down of which Americans will suffer for the next 3 months, it's nice to read about real solutions from a non-party-affiliated1 source. Forget Obamacare, Johnsoncare2, Romneycare, taxes, or deficit spending. What we need is a moustache, and friends, we need it soon.

We won't spoil a good read, but just look at some of the healthy highlights!

  1. Cancer protection
  2. Pancakes
  3. Tax Benefits
  4. Increased Attractiveness

Yeah, that's right kids. Pancakes.

A question then begs asking, the answer to which must be obvious if we are honest with ourselves. If all these benefits can be realized by a simple 'stache, how much more beneficial must be a full beard?


[1] Unless you count the party on the upper lip, in which case, it's super affiliated.
[2] Just kidding, Gary Johnson doesn't portend to resolve complex issues with legislative monoliths

Whoa there my bearded friend. There's more pogonotrophy where this came from
