Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...

Quote:
Brad Pitt’s beard seems to have found its way to Jon Stewart’s face – although it’s cleaned up quite nicely.

Yes, Jon Stewart has joined the ranks of late-night hosts who cultivate facial hair in their off-hours, as he revealed when “The Daily Show” returned last night.

“Some of you may be wondering right now, ‘Hey! What happened to your face?" Stewart said about the obvious change. "Why is Jon Stewart’s evil cousin hosting the show?”
After trying to pass off the new look as the result of a run-in with a tub of Fluff, Stewart finally admitted the real reason.

“The truth is," Stewart said, "I’m a Japanese snow monkey. I’ve been hiding it from people, and I can’t live that lie anymore.”

How long do you think he'll keep the look?

Just a personal preference, I hate it! What is it with actors and beards suddenly? Can't they think for themselves? Last time it was buzz cuts (and Harrison Ford looked AWFUL!), now this. I thought it was women who were ruled by fashion. Shees...

He may think it makes him look smarter but it makes him look older. I heard it took him a month to grow it.

Aww Story.

One day, you will grow. You will see things. You will break the rope holding you. Hell, you might live past 18.

And AFTER the fun of college, you might actually learn to think for yourself.

I jsut worry that you dont have the capability to live and learn beyond what you will soon be forced into "believing".

But thats ok. Live and learn, grown and grow.

Its all part of being an adult.

You can do it, and I don't mean that as snark.

Think, watch, learn, grow. You CAN do it.

Nikiiiiiiiiiiii,

If a man grows a beard--and he's not a fan of the Back Street Boys--at least 50% of the reason he's doin' it is 'cause he's sick to death of shaving his face every day of his life. Shaving a face is like shaving about 4 knees and you gotta do it every day or you start looking like a bum. Jon has had EXACTLY the same look for ten years on The Daily Show--a few years ago he started going a little grey, but that's it.

"Ruled by fashion?" Am I missing the joke? Why the heck do people attach such overpowering significance to what celebrities do? As if they don't do things for EXACTLY the same reason anyone else does a thing? He grew a beard. Which is to say, he stopped shaving his chin.

Facial hair is one of the few areas men are allowed to vary "the uniform." Let the guy grow a beard, already! Sheesh.

(Been catching up on episodes of Rescue Me, so I hope you will forgive any undue volatility in my post--does that happen to you? You read a book or watch a tv show or something and it starts to seep into the way you express yourself?)

Spoken by someone who hasn't reached the age of 18 yet, and has definitely never been to college.

Huh? "Grown and grow"? That makes absolutely no sense at all. Are you drinking again?

HKC - After a short while, though, the beard becomes almost as much a pain in the ass as the shaving was. You have to keep it trimmed, you STILL have to shave all around it, and you have to shape it and groom it. So it's work in its own way, too.

Me? I'm fine with him having it, or not. I've grown the same one myself a time or seven.

Yeah, HK, you're right. I should know from Jim...he grows a beard for a while, shaves it off, shaves his HEAD for a while, grows it back...it's gotten to the point where I don't even notice anymore. Jim is Jim.

The "fashion" remark was just that...right now celebreties are growing beards to save their soul it seems, they're sprouting up all over. And it just WAS the buzz cut, which looked awful on all but the youngest of them.

I guess guys have every right to follow fashion as much as women...me, I like a clean face and the longest hair I can find...one reason I love Michael Douglas; he's never given in and cut it!

So it's just personal preference, and I understand about shaving. We women could tell you a thing or two about shaving legs and underarms...at least I could up until ten years ago or so. Now: who cares? I don't have to wear nylons and high heels anymore...yipee!

I'm with you. I don't love the look, but I never loved Stewart for his looks anyhow. It's the same brain in there, so I'm happy.

BTW - did you see his spot on Frontline when the show returned some years ago? I'd always been amused by Stewart, but seeing him answer serious questions seriously - but not too seriously - I really did develop a crush. That's one sexy brain on that man.

LOL! Try writing a chapter of fanfiction from Jayne Cobb's POV after reading a few Jane Austen novels. Not easy!

Normally I'd just ignore this one, but knowing a bunch of seriously hirsute Astaru, I gotta say it...

Man, if you're gonna grow a beard, go for it, none of this namby pamby clean cut stuff, go full bore, go epic, hell throw some braids in that mother!

I was thinkin about a Goatee or Van Dyke for a while, but while they used to look nicely sinister, nowaways you just look like some disaffected Gen-Xer workin loss prevention at Best Buy.
*scoff, derisive sniff*

Although thinkin on it, I wonder if the guy isn't trying to provoke a trope here.

This is crazy talk. Jon Stewart is lovely with or without his fashionable facial hair. As is, I am sure, Anthony.

I was mostly teasing...slow news day, couldn't find much serious stuff, and I had just seen "the beard" the day before.

I love him however he looks; he has THE most mobile face, and it's half his talent for humor, the way he uses it.

The BRAIN, on the other hand, I agree with 100%. It's a good thing he's not a serious social commentator, he's MUCH more effective this way and gets away with a lot more, as well.

I saw him semi-serious on Orally's show, and he blew me away. I knew he was smart as a whip, but hearing him say it like it is to Orally was wonderful. And they actually seem to somewhat LIKE each other--tho' that could have been on-air nicey-nicey, I dunno. But it was wonderful.

I've got a crush, too, I must admit. I like Colbert (and even wear a WristStrong on my busted wrist--hey, you never know!), but nobody holds a CANDLE to Stewart!

One of the things that makes me love him is I swear, I don't think he takes himself seriously! There's a boyish charm about him that lets him get away with an awful lot.

Knock it off, PN...go find something you can post about Dictator Jew Muslim Terrorist (bad name, bad name, bad name) Obama or something and leave other people's threads alone, asshole. You got nothing to say, fine; don't say it.

This one was particularly stupid, and REALLY shows your need to come into even unimportant threads to stick your finger in. I'd say "grow up, but I know you're incapable of it. You are the only single person here who gives a shit who is Jewish...go stick pins in your "Jew Doll" or something and leave the rest of us alone.

Oh, wait, I get it: Your last seven idiotic posts got no attention whatsoever (not surprising, given how stupid they are) so you need the attention. Okay, you got it; now go back to posting nonsense that can be ignored.

No, wait, I just recounted; out of your last eleven posts, you got one response. Maybe people are catching on, eh? No wonder you need to jump into other posts to get it.
