from pornstache to beard, Jake G has single handedly changed my taste in men

[littleguitar]

First he makes me find a tacky 70's moustache unbearably sexy in Brokeback Mountain.... Now the beard.  He's had it for a while now folks but with these new pictures of him at the Laker's game, I'm suddenly in love with it, YUM 

Check out this cutie!

[littleguitar]

Or how about this one... Check out those baby blues 

[kirkmusic]

I've always been fond of what are actually Van Dykes but what are commonly refered to now as goatees.  I think Jake's beard is very sexy as well.  Those eyes just pop against that dark frame.

[vkm91941]

Only one word....YUM! 

[Nicole]

I am a lover of facial hair and on Jake it's just so hot.  I vote for the beard!!!

[ednbarby]

I hear you all.  I work with a lovely young man who grew a goatee after seeing how it made Joseph Fiennes' eyes pop in Shakespeare in Love, and now he's growing a beard a la Jake for the same reason.  He's got that rich medium brown hair and doe eyes with mile-long eyelashes, too.  Can't wait to see how it, ahem, turns out.

Barb,

If I worked with your co-worker ... well, I wouldn't get much work done, let's put it that way!

Kissing a man without facial hair is like eating an egg without salt. It's perfectly possible and OK, but not nearly as much fun! 

[amh]

I know, he makes everything he does unbearably sexy!  Even looking at a parking meter (per the JakeWatch site)!

Thanks for posting these pics, I hadn't seen them yet.

But if you are fans of the beardy-beard you need to get over to Jake watch now! Aload of the guys from there are saying they want to get rid of the beard and me and Chantelle are the only ones sticking up for it!

Damn it Jeff, you have made me really want to have some egg and salt now! Hey thanks for the lunch ideas!

[chefjudy]

  I would take Jake either way, but I prefer clean shaven (read: smooth) face, just right for kissing and stroking - be still my beating heart!...............................

ROFL! Becky I thought that was you over there! I actually just posted there last night about how much I love the beard... but under anonymous cause I didn't feel like signing up... maybe I'll go make a screen name and add my two cents!!

Save our dill indeed, mmmmmmm 

[Becky]

Yeah I am on there as Miss Twist! You don't have to sign up, you just need to click on other, add your name and leave the web page bit blank. Thaks for your suport! We need to save the Dill! <Upside down Dill!

Oh, I know.  My first love had quite the pornstache.  Still has, I reckon.  And he had those doe eyes, too, only deep, dark and delicious brown with red and gold flecks.  And his eyelashes were a mile and half long and twice as thick.  Damn him.

[Jeff Wrangler]

Ya know, Jake with a pornstache, Jake clean-shaven, Jake with a few days' growth, Jake with a full beard--in the end, all that really matters is, it's Jake. ...

(I guess whether or not he's got facial hair, he's still got that happy trail. ...  )

Damn, all these guys I'm hearing about with great lashes, and all I've got are ordinary blue eyes and hardly any lashes to notice. My mother had beautiful long natural eyelashes. So who do I take after? My father. ...

[ednbarby]

I got the long lashes in my family - they actually come from my father.  My son got 'em also, blue eyes and strawberry blond hair and all, God bless 'im.  My husband has the beautifully deep blue eye color, but no lashes or brows to speak of.  It's so interesting to see how the genes play out.  Will has his smallish, shortish eyebrows but my long, thick, dark lashes.  We can't figure out whose nose he has, though - doesn't seem to be either of ours!

[Nicole]

Awww Barb - Will is seriously such a cutie pie.  And I'm not a kid person, so that's a big compliment from me!   

[Lumière]

Jake with the beard is dang hot! 
I just think that he is a very fine specimen of manhood, whether he is sporting a beard or not..
*sigh*

[Daniel]

In the ancient Greek world, facial hair was a sign of wisdom and maturity. It certainly seems to make his facial expressions resonate with a great deal of deeper meaning. It is fascinating how a beard adds so much geometric beauty to an already ideal structure. It adds angles which denote attention and which can be easily followed.

There is always beauty in a focused attention. It denotes consciousness and thought and the perplexing ideals of an emotional existance. It is undeniably human, and resonates with those feelings that are ultimately human about how important it is to strive to be more than human.

[David]

I'm not usually a fan of bearded guys.   Randall did nothing for me!  LOL

But I'll admit, Jake is damn hot in those two pics!

What an interesting post Daniel, thanks for that! 

[dmmb_Mandy]

Jakedammit, he is hot - hair or hairless - he is scrumptous. I don't think there's anything that boy could do to himself to make him hotless.

[littleguitar]

Damn Mandy, you're killing me with those avatars of yours 

Every day there's a new one to make me drool....

And yes, I agree, nothing could make him non hot!

[FuzzyChanny]

Please Save Our Dill!! He has become an important feature and something to treasure. He is near and dear to my heart (and Becky's). Please show your support.

WE LOVE YOU DILL  (and Jakie of course)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Becky]

LOL I have just realised that your avatar is like in Romeo and Juliette when I think it is Tybalt asks, "Do you bite your thumb at me, Sir?" to someone. I know that your avatar is a quote from a fan girl and she would never know about any of  Shakspeare's plays, but I am just pointing out the likeness.

Oh yeah and Save Our Dill!

P.s Chantelle, you really need to see my easter egg. I was thinking of posting it on here to get everyone in the mood for easter, but I am not sure I will know cause it is too of topic!

[FuzzyChanny]

That whole biting of the finger thing in Romeo and Juliet has some profound meaning, which I right now can't remember. I think it was something about chopping off thumbs.

Can you PM it to me? Or you can email it to me (send to the MSN address in my profile).

[Kd5000]

I prefer the four day beard growth. The grizzly beard look tends to obscure his chiseled, yet angluar face. He looked his best on Oscar night. 

Saw photos from ZODIAC. He's going cleancut.  I thought a film set in the 1970's, it would be perfectly acceptable for the bearded look.

I am sorry I do not believe you can PM people easter eggs! No I will have to load it up to the computer from my camera, but my mum is on my ass to get of the net cause apparently I, "Spend too long on that damn computer, it is not good for you..." And that is when I stopped listening but I placed a few stategic(sp?) yes' and nos. I am actually thinking of starting a thread, I don't know, I will decide tomorrow, but I will send you the picture of the egg before I make a thread.

[Kelda]

RRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrrrr!
Jack can just do no wrong in my eyes..he is sex on legs!

What does "dill" refer to?

I read an essay recently that this gesture, mentioned in Romeo and Juliet, is the precursor to the Sicilian taunt of biting the thumb nail and flicking the hand at an opponent.  Makes sense.  It is amazing how the gesture evolved.  Historically the biting of the thumb was a frequent insult in Elizabethan England  one that Shakespeare's audiences were sure to identify with.

Ah yes the essays! Damn my teacher she made me right a 6 page essay just on Romeo's actions. It was easy to right about a page but then I got really hard up on material. But hey, I got an A for the essay so I am happy. I enjoyed R+J but I like the film with Claire Danes better. Much better than Macbeth, that I had to do last year....snoozefest or what? I did like the murder bit and the symobolism but when we had to go and see the play it bored the pants off me! The only thing that amused me was the quality of the acting. I think the bus trip home was better, but that was mainly because it ended up with me daring someone to moon out the window at a passing lorry and he actually did it! Sorry I am re-living memories, I will shut up. 


Oh yes someone asked why Dill is called Dill. Well Dill is what we have christened Jake's beardy-beard. There is some method behind our madness though. Seeing as Jake has named his dogs after characters from "To Kill a Mockingbird" we thought we would continue the pattern by naming his beard after a character from that book.

We have 7 members signed up already and the numbers are growing. Thinof it like "The prisoner" where we refer to each other like numbers. I think I am right by saying the prisoner, please correct me if I am wrong.

[FuzzyChanny]

Thank you Vicky. That would be the profound meaning I was talking about.

I hated Macbeth too, but not as much as Anthony and Cleopatra. On a whole, I am not fond of Shakespeare. I do, however, ADORE the play Rosencrantz and Guildenstein are Dead (which is nothing like Shakespeare but set, as they say, in the wings of Hamlet).

What Becky, you are useless! Not being able to PM me your egg. Don't know why I keep you around.

[delalluvia]

It wasn't Romeo or Tybalt involved in the 'biting the thumb' insult.

I think it was just a couple of retainers from the Montague and Capulet households who parried the words in the early part of the play.

I love Jake's days old growth look - not everyone can pull it off and not look sloppy - but I'm really against full facial hair.  That bias comes from my early days working for a Harley Davidson biker guy who had full facial hair who liked to comment on what he could still smell in his beard after intimate encounters.

Nice for him I guess, but yucky for everyone else.

Now, when I see a man with facial hair, all I can think of is that if I get close enough to kiss him, I'll probably be able to smell what he's been smoking, what he's been eating (and maybe see some of it  ) and possibly who he's been doin'.

Eech.  Clean shaven for me, thank you very much.

[Becky]

Oh no #1! Another one has been draged over to the dark side!

I am sorry, it is philips fault I can't PM you the egg! He should have the technology to send easter eggs as a holiday treat! LOL
But I can do the next best thing, I can show you the pictures! I will PM them to you in a minute, I am just uploading them at the moment.

Yeah I have to say that is probably one of the grossest things I have heard in awhile ...but then again bikers and guys who are NOTclose friends with soap and water don't  EVER get that close to me anyway ...LOL

[Becky]

So who is a fan and who is not? What are the pros and cons in your view? I want these to be as stupid as possible please as I am doing research for my site. So bring on the stupid reasons!

[ptannen]

I agree that Jake's beard is very sexy   

[vkm91941]

facial hair on Jake? a fan....YOU BET!, 1 day scruff, a full beard or even that gawd awful fake mustache...That boy is goreous.  But he is absolutely beautiful clean-shaven too, almost too perfect. 

[Daniel]

I am quite certain that my reply (look above) has already revealed my attitude regarding Mr. Gyllenhaal's new look.

[FuzzyChanny]

Hmm, perhaps I should start a Fans of the Beardy-Beard thread here too like I did on IMDB... to keeps tabs on our numbers.

[littleguitar]

Well, we all know how I feel about the beard considering I started this thread! LONG LIVE THE DILL, LOL! He is too beautiful no matter which way he is, but man that beard makes those eyes ten times more beautiful! If only we could get him to stop hiding the behind those sunglasses...

 

[Becky]

Yeah Chantelle, you should start the beardy-beard thread over here to keep up the numbers and then we have somewhere to announce the site when I give out the adress, I don't want to give out the adress yet though cause I want to add some more stuff on the site. How is it coming with those quiz questions?

Ohh Good idea Mandy, we need to start a mission to get those glasses off him.

[ptannen]

An excellemt idea!!   

[Becky]

Sounds like we have ourself another fan #1! I am sure we can fit another in!   You guys will be the first to see my new site once I have finished with it.

[mlewisusc]

You know, I was a very early supporter of the pornstache.  Now, the more I see the DVD, the more I love the pornstache!

[FuzzyChanny]

*cries about the loss of Dill*

It's Throwback Thursday! In celebration, I bring you...the Alphabeard!!
