1) if you can't grow a fucking beard then don't try. There's absolutely no dignity in neckbeards, clumps, bumfluff or gaps below your moustaches.
2) if you can grow a fucking beard then grow a fucking beard. You're a man. Leave the nancyboy gillette and pampering oils to slag-fucking golfers.
3) only trim if it merges into your eyebrows, ear or chest hair. Too much trimming and you risk turning Jeremy Beadle.
4) no fat chicks

it just happens to him.
when you've been married a while and have forgotten what anything spontaneous feels like - which is the stage before the arguing increases and you realise that actually having a lot in common just means no more surprises in your life ever and then you appreciate that you are so bored of hearing the same voice and seeing the same face except now it is more wrinkled and surrounded by greyer hair and listening to the same stories about where the other person works and the problems they are facing with their day, which haven't changed since last week or the week before or the week before that - just remember that you were once offered a cheeky suck.
it'll cheer you up when you are having your weekly wank in the shower so that it washes clean quickly.

they will refuse to support your submission, find you an external, internal etc and you'd have to do all that yourself. But the 4 year thing is almost always an internal policy, usually to do with RC funding. RCs consider a PhD a fail if not submitted within 4 years, and too many "technical fails" like that on RC money, and the RC cuts the Uni's funding.
Short answer - don't do it, but if you do, it's not an irredemable loss.
