This morning we took a van full of RAs to Portland Hall for a meeting. On the way back, we were discussing a program that they are doing in Robie-Andrews between the two men's floors: The Great Beard off. Starting on November 1st they shave clean and the day before Thanksgiving break, they judge on several different categories: best overall, fullest, thinnest, patchiest, etc. The conversation was just all together hilarious.
Then we got talking about neck beards. How some guys will shave but miss the neck all together. A concept I had never thought about before, but identified immediately. One of the RAs said, "Well, maybe they don't shave it to cover up hickeys." To which I reply, "Ok, because I would give a hickey over a neck beard." Ewwwww.
So, I love these random conversations that I think sometimes adults are afraid to have. Debates over the better PEZ flavor and how it tastes better out of a certain dispenser (Batman and Muppet ones are the best to me) or beards. And then get into an honest discussion about anti-discrimination and such. My mom calls this profession denial. I call it knowing where its at and not letting adulthood grab me by the proverbial balls and yanking me into mediocrity.
