Nice stache, Marc! This mustache was grown for Movember 2011, as part of a team of men who work at the British Ministry of Justice, in the Legal Directorate. Cheerio! Their team name was the Dashing Tashers of Justice, but no word on how many tashers of justice were dashing. No, we have only this picture of Marc, comfortably reclined before this stately red accent curtain, with his carefully coifed faux bedhead and a lipbrow remarkably similar to his eyebrows.
Marc says that, as a lawyer, he entered into tense negotiations with his fiance, regarding ownership of his upper lip. She insisted that the exclusion principle in real property law gave her eminent domain over his facial hirsuteness, while Marc maintained that nuh uh, it was his face and he would grow whatever he wanted on it. This legal defense became known as The Castle Face Doctrine (because a
man's face is his castle), or colloquially, "Sikkes Said So". Nevertheless, despite having won the legal case, Marc succumbed to an embargo his wife placed on their private behavior, and he negotiated to give her artistic control over the mustache.
His fiance was aiming for "a 1940s look, like Clark Gable." For reference, here is a picture of Clark Gable -- judge for yourself the uncanny resemblence.
As always, send pictures of your sweet mouth hat to submit@stacheforge.com!
