Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Community Guidelines

By following these rules, we can maintain a diverse and informative community. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the moderators. Thank you for contributing responsibly!

Number 10 has a different name now

Yup, the short Austrian man copied Charlie Chaplin. Apparently he was a big fan of Chaplin, Chaplin on the other hand was not a fan of him (see "the great dictator") :3

Wait, I thought a goatee is what is labelled 'circle' ... is that a Canadian thing or ?

[–] atomicbocks@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

Where I am from in the States 19 would be a Van Dyke (18) and 32 would be a Goatee. I don’t know what 18 is supposed to be called.

[–] CidVicious@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

I've always heard the circle beard called a goatee too, but I think I heard Bill Simmons, of all people, mention that goatee is supposed to refer to a beard that hangs down from your chin, like a goat. It makes sense as an etymology. The circle beard is essentially a goatee + mustache.

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

USA, I've always known number 19 as the goatee. I grew up around goats though, so I just sorta assumed it was named after the tuft of hair that goats often have under their chin.

Tbh, I’ve heard both

I thought I had that "haven't shaved in a few days" look because I'm lazy, but apparently I'm rocking "designer stubble." I feel significantly fancier

[–] friend_of_satan@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What does that turn into if you don't touch it for 4 weeks? That's what I have, and it's not on this list.

[–] protist@mander.xyz 3 points 1 year ago

A neckbeard?

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Ned Kelly would also be known as the Dalston/Williamsburg/Brunswick/(insert very urban hipster district name) Woodsman

[–] JovialSodium@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago

Or unix beard. Though perhaps not as tidy, stereotypically.

[–] DearMoogle@lemmy.today 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Aww the friendly mutton chops are shaking hands:)

[–] Amputret@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 year ago

By far my favourite facial hair. I’m so sad I don’t have the jawline for it ;_;

I was disappointed to not find the 19th century classic continuous sideburns+mustache combo:

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

magnificent. ambrose burnside you magnificent SOB, let those sideburns fly

[–] three@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

Where's "normal"? In between a 1 and 35?

[–] CPMSP@midwest.social 4 points 1 year ago

18 is traditionally called a "Musketeer" in competitive circles.

[–] CidVicious@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

I don't know if I have a Ned Kelly or a Garibaldi. It probably depends on how long it's been since I cleaned it up.

[–] harambe69@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 4 months ago

Friendly muttonchops? Why? I don't look any friendlier.

[–] SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org 1 points 7 months ago

Please when sharing wikipedia links remove the m. as the browser will decide if it wants the mobile version anyway. Thanks!
