Hroom, Hroom, Don't Be So Hasty

It appears that the Great-Trans-Canadian-Beard-Mojo-Alliance may be coming to an end. Chris at Covered In Oil is talking about shaving his off to please his girlfriend. I can't hold it against him, since I mistakenly shaved mine off to please my boss, but I fear that the karmic balance he and I had achieved might be at risk. I am going to go ahead and shave like I have done for the past two games, and hope that a) Chris does the right thing, or b) I can bear the weight by myself.
