Description:

Calling all of you facially hirsute throwbacks out there, gather
up and deliver your fine self, along with your inner and outer
beards to the House of Automatic Subconscious, where we shall take
the time to parade you before us like so much hairy meat and pass
judgment upon those locks and curls that cascade off of the area
known as your chinny-chin-chin. There will be 4 prime categories:
Full-Beard, Moustache, Freestyle Full Beard, Fake Beard and quite
probably not possibly, an "Other" category.

As per usual in this sort of event, our highly esteemed panel of
untrained professionals will judge upon such features as glossiness
of pelt, lack of nits, creativity, fullness of body, amount of previous
dinner ensconced within and other equally tangible parameters that attest
to the care and feeding of your personal face troll. Bribery and
foolishness are considered de rigueur.

All that is necessary is that you have some form of facial hair, a
good and jolly spirit, and the necessary accoutrement of a cummerbund.
One must have the proper air of formality around such an event as this,
do not you agree?
