I "like" Spielberg in general more than I do George L, so I'll say for now that Spielberg Schmielberg's subjectively scruffy and unpolished facial topiary has made him "a better person" than has George Lucozade's impenetrable bear-faced cheek(s), and chin, and entire head.
Me myself I who started this thread under my artistic, potato-faced baby's baldy bum pseudonym (must be all of twenty years ago now), feel the impulse to ask a technical question about that coarse, facial bracken which seems to appear in virile, ancient Scotsmen living abroad in order to avoid paying tax, yet hanging SNP flags out of the windows of the top floor of our mansions, such as me myself I, and Sir Shaun Konnery (shurely shome mishtake in the shpelling?)...
Back to the bracken - I have asked this before, but it has become more troublesome in recent years. I shall not say "me myself I" again, for fear of being branded self-absorbed. No, not "fear", as we as a pudding race are fearless warriors, but I shall use the term "one" from now on, when I really mean "me", "myself", and also "I".
What does "one" do when one's facial hair is so coarse and stubborn that it begins to grow out of one's cheekbones, right up to the eyes? Does one continue hacking away at it in the hope that it will go away, or grow back in a less manly way? In one's experience, the undergrowth comes back like Brier/Briar Rose Triffid tendrils - impossible to defeat by normal means.
A final observation and a desperate plea for advice. When one's (okay, your) beardy-moustachio bits directly around the mouth grow so close to the oral cavity that there's literally less than a milimicrocosmos of billymeters between the "hole" and the hair, do you carve a little baldy pattern around your gob, just to show people where it is when your mouth is shut? I ask this (oh I know, me myself I) because I am so hideously hirsute that the only parts of my body from the neck up which are free from shrubbery are my tongue, my eyeballs, and (curiously) the top of my head.
But I do hate drawing attention to myself. I must say though, that I have been in contact with my friends in the industry (Steve, George, Sean) about this. Steve said that he felt my pain, George hasn't replied as yet, and Sean told me to stop being a bloody arshe.

The 'stache dilemma is one of many reasons I have scraped away eight years of beardidity. Grew weary of the chase, so to speak, as it were...besides, there are so many shave cream flavors with which to apply during one's daily shaving routine, which brings excitement to the daily ritual of shaving. The pursuit of various shaving cream flavors also ties in with your To Have or Not to Have question, though one's grotesque commercialisticism will be chastised by popular advert voiceover artiste and internet allocuter Billy Mac McCrum.
Oh, the sweet god damned irony of being lectured on being commercial by a commercial voiceover personality. But it's for reasons such as this that I'm a Billy Mac McCrum admirer.

I wonder: why do both Lucas AND Spielberg have beards? George had his first, so did Steven, being an admirer of George's, grow his so he could be more like his mentor?
Really makes you think...
You actually find that hard to comprehend, Mr Phelps? Well get this. Neither Spielberg not Lucas wore glasses when they were young. Spielberg certainly didn't wear spectacles in the pictures I've seen of him making JAWS. Not even in 1982 when making E.T. George Lucas was specless too in the earlier part of his career. Then Lucas started (for some unfathomable reason) to wear eyeglasses. And next thing you know, four years later, Spielberg has the bloody binoculars stuck on his nosebridge! Coincidence my ass! Spielberg's dilemma now is that Lucas "sometimes" appears in public without his glasses. He doesn't really depend on them to see - it's a fashion gimmick. Spielberg on the other hand is severely miopic and needs his glasses in order to distinguish shapes and colours. So what does he do? Go for "the snip"? That would eat into his fortune, and besides his spectacular macular degeneration is too far advanced to be corrected by light-saber surgery. So Spielberg NEEDS his glasses. Lucas does NOT. It's the eternal power play. When I spoke to Steven on the phone the other day, he said that he was somewhat depressed at not looking more like George Lucas, but that Lucas had the upper hand in the Game of Thrones. Steven began sobbing, and asked me if he should shave off his beard, just to see if Lucas would shave HIS off in response, thus demonstrating really who is in awe of who. Sometimes we are so close to the trees that we can't see the woods. Especially without glasses.

I do now. Or as close as I can manage, having a thin hair growth on my face.
I've kept my weight down, so that means my face has gotten thin, as it seems to do in men my age. Without the beard, I look gaunt.
