This picture is of hecklerspray editor Stuart Heritage’s beard.
As some of you already know, Stu promised that he’d grow this beard for a month to see what it looked like and then shave it off. That month is up, but now he doesn’t know whether to keep it or not. And this is where you come in.
Stu has already assembled a list of pros and cons about shaving the beard off, as follows:
PROS:
* He won’t look homeless
* He won’t look like one of The Spin Doctors
* He won’t look like Anthony Worrall Thompson
* Girls will theoretically want to kiss him more
* He’ll be able to eat a Dominoes Double Decadence pizza without his face ending up looking like a hairy exploded cyst.
CONS:
* He’s lazy
* Shaving it off might hurt
* It does look sort of good, doesn’t it?
* Chuck Norris
So what’s it to be? Beard on or beard off? It’s up to you. Fill in this poll-thing below and tomorrow night Stu will collate the results and abide completely by your decision. For a bit, at least. Your vote counts!

I still think my beard is better.
It looks hideous. It looks like the bigfoot thing from Harry and the Hendersons is kissing a wire brush. Brr.
I think it’s great. An untrainable terrier of a beard. If you do shave it off, do it in one piece – as I would like to see a duel between it and the late, great Roger Delgado’s beard (which is stored in a vault below Whitehall for when England’s need is greatest) just to see how their fighting styles would differ.
God! is that thing legal?
Swivel that photo 90degrees and you get the splitting image of some awful minge well in need of a trim. Uhh
it looks hideous
i voted keep it.
Where’s Euclid these days?
Such a vanity article, this.
Can’t we just keep the beard, and do away with the pathetic 13 stone pile of fucking shit that’s attached to it?
Neil Hunter from TV’s Tonightly again, there, ladies and gentlemen. He too has a beard. But only because he’d look like a pretty lady if he didn’t
We prefer the term “lesbian”
‘We’ prefer the term …?
When did the multiple personalities start kicking in, Hunter? Immediately following the stress of having your secret alias revealed?
My thoughts on the issue? I say lose the beard but keep a blonde Hilter moustache. See how Sky News reacts to *that*.
Keep it!
Beards rock.
About 1 in 5 women secretly love beards, but less than 1 in 5 men have beards.
do you see?
Anyone want to fill the rest of us in on where this Hunter chap crawled from?
