It’s half way through November and we can’t walk out of the house, scroll our facebook page or read through our favourite forums without seeing various successes of hairy chins.
For those of you not aware of the now yearly ritual that is ‘Movember‘ it is a time where men from all walks of life attempt to grow all manner of facial hair for a good cause: to bring awareness and charitable donations to organisations that are doing good in men’s health.
So in order to bring a little awareness to the cause, we’ve recruited a little help from a certain mascot. Lucky was a willing participant, happy to demonstrate the very many moustaches and styles available. So when your friend walks in the room and shows off the tuft of hair on his lip, you’ll know exactly what to call it.
The Many Faces and ‘Taches of Lucky
What do you mean you don’t think those are the real names of the moustache styles? You calling us liars?!?
We might, or might not have taken our inspiration from our list of mobile slots. Hey, we are slot players! Not barbers. What did you expect?
Have you joined in the Movember cause? Which are you? And more importantly…
Have you fallen into the Movember trap?
- First up ‘Wanted‘ or as we like to call it, the “If you can grow that in a month it’s because you are hiding out in the Mexican border. Or bought it from a Mexican.“
- The Slotfather is next. Only able to look decent on powerful Italian men and pubescent teenagers, you run the risk of looking like you’re a pubescent teenager yourself if you can’t grow this any further.
- Dr Magoo showcases the intrepid explorer out for an adventure. However on a certain light this can also pass as the ‘I’m trying to hide my non-de-script face‘ and ‘I stopped shaving in the 70s‘. It’s a toss up.
- The Fisticuffs boxer has a lusciously beautiful sleek perfect moustache. It’s the Magnum PI of moustaches. Also good if you want a career in adult recreational films.
- Major Millions moustache has style, charisma and gravitas. This is a moustache that says ‘I shall lead you into battle.. what what!‘. It can also say ‘I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti.‘ But we are not judgemental about these things.
- Who doesn’t want the debonair hair chin from Three Wishes? It speaks of intellectual supremacy. You probably own a iPad air and wear black turtle-necks. You may even force your girlfriend to call you Steve Jobs when no one is looking.
- Thor from Thunderstruck & Thunderstruck II is our inspiration for the next one. Not so much a moustache as a full on beard, this one is cheating. You’re not actually doing Movember, you just broke your razor and decided that joining in was easier than going to the shop and replacing it. Lazy bastard.
- Whilst we have three moustaches in the slot Tres Hombres, we took our final moustache as the generic ‘this is my dad’ look. It’s the kind of ‘tache you can see on a middle age man singing Karaoke in a dark bar after having too much Tequila. The song is probably ‘YMCA’.
We jest, but we honestly think that Movember is great. The fact that men all over the world embarrass themselves by growing fantastical moustaches is the point – if it wasn’t funny, people wouldn’t read about it and get a little wiser about the issues in men’s health that so many people are too scared to talk about.
So this November we shall play on mobile slots with characters with beautiful facial hair to reminds us of a very worthy cause.
