The Bearded Villains, in case you were unaware, are a worldwide brotherhood of bearded men. They do a lot of charity work and formed mainly to unite bearded men that are promoting a lifestyle, not a fad.
Their Mission Statement:
"To Unite Bearded Men of all cultures, races, creed and sexuality in a Brotherhood devoted to Loyalty, Honor and Respect toward all people, Dedicated to the betterment of mankind through fraternity Charity and Kindness "
I've known a few Bearded Villains over the last year and have finally said "fuck it" and let my beard grow out to the required length to be considered, which is two inches past the chin.
I literally can't pump my gas, get a coffee, or go to the grocery store without someone complimenting my beard. I get at least a free beer a week from a fellow patron at the bar with compliments about it and words of encouragement to keep growing!
This beard is officially bigger than me!
"With great power comes great responsibility."
