During COVID I wanted to do some gardening, but I live in an apartment, so the only thing I could grow was a handlebar. ;-)
The handlebar made me more WYSIWYG: an out-of-the-box look for out-of-the-box thinking.
My favorite mustache wax is Bossman MUDstache, unscented, very easy to apply, water washable, and with a strong hold.
I recently shaved my mustache. It was fun, but I'm taking a break. I may grow it back at some point.
