I don't think we've seen a beardless Jeff since he started wearing sunglasses apart from that little beard thing he acquired in the early 80s. , there was a series of photos (3 I think) of Jeff without beard from the mid-late '70s. I think you had seen them as well and even commented. I recall the way Jeff looked on those photos wasn't very popular among the lady forumheads. |

It's strange because it's not like Jeff looked weird back before he ever had the beard and mustache... but then once he had them there was no going back!!! |

It can't happen, it's against the laws of nature surely?

He wouldn't look all that bad. Why "suddenly"?
In a fit of mid-life crisis (don't ask!) I once shaved my head (after all it's cheaper than buying a red sports car, and less effort than weightlifting) - and BELIEVE ME I did it slowly & carefully....
Hmmmm - it occurs to me that most emojis are bald!

What was that mid-life crisis caused by, babyzoomer? You know, I'm in my mid-life and not sure if going through the same crisis you suffered or the one I've been going through since I was born. |

Believe me, if you're only in your thirties, you probably have no idea what a mid-life crisis is! When it happens, you'll understand! I've had former students talk to me about a "quarter-life crisis" in their early twenties, but I just call that growing up! Not sure what's going on with you...  |

It started around the era when I turned 18 (for the third time!); unfortunately I developed a severe shaving rash & I had to let it grow back. Oh well; when life gives you lemons, make G&Ts.....  |

Nothing is going on with me, eloneen, don't worry, I was just kidding. So far I've only had specific problems in my life, no crisis related to a certain age per se. Still, your answer makes me wonder what happens at that other point in your life you are talking about that can never happen in your mid- thirties...  |

A mid-life crisis can be lots of things, depending on the person, but it's often existential and profoundly biological at the same time...I'll leave it at that. Anyone else care to explain? |

Having in mind it can depend on the person and it can be lots of things, couldn't I -or someone my age- have been going through some of that stuff? By biological you mean menopausia / andropausia? Also, what do you mean by existencial? Is it asking yourself about the meaning of our existence, why we are here and that sort of profoundly philosophical stuff? |

I take great comfort from the term 'mid-life crisis' - 'cause it means I was only half-way through my life!

, but we're OK. 
Apparently it's quite hard to see them with the naked eye, you need to be looking through a camera or other type of lens?
