Morning, groovers.
Last night, whilst staying at my ex's, I discovered a LIFE-CHANGING PRODUCT. 'Dry shampoo' - now you can get away with being a skanky grebo who hasn't washed his hair, it seems. Fucking re-sult. This is lucky because today I am a skanky grebo who hasn't washed his hair, opting instead to use the time to make a Sticklebrick house.

Are you a skanky grebo, or always immaculately groomed?

EDIT: STOMP STOMP STOMPITY STOMP

I'd have thought you'd have known about that years ago, you sweaty freak.
I'm never immaculately groomed, but I shower every morning (and often every night), as otherwise I just feel disgusting.

Morning Monty.

I'm quite jealous of men who can grow a proper beard.
It takes me two weeks to grow half an inch of stubble. Every so often I give it a go and it gets to that length and starts to make my face itch. I understand that the itchiness eventually passes, but at the speed at which my hair grows, that'll be days and days away.

Very jealous.

Ok, 2-3 times a day is wrong.

I have a beard, but it is no more than a few millimetres long. If yours grows at a rate of 0.762mm/day then it would reach the length of mine in under a week.
