There really is only one month of the year when a moustache is socially acceptable, Movember. If you’re doing it to raise money for cancer research then you can grow the handlebar moustache of your dreams and people will admire and praise you for it. The rest of the year you’re either Lemmie from Motorhead or some sad fool who wants to be Lemmie from Motorhead.A special moustache exemption can be applied for if you’re young and hip and your style is self-consciously ironic. I lack the\u00a0requisite\u00a0youth and hipness and so moustaches are officially off limits for me. And anyway, most hipsters look like complete pratts with their\u00a0wispy caterpillar moustaches. Irony can be as allusive as dreams and you never can really tell if that moustache of yours is the very latest statement to set off your post-modernist sartorial flair or you just look like a escapee from a Solo advert<\/a>.<\/p>\n
