Sonny Crockett [Don Johnson] in 1984.
I hate this recent trend that almost every man in every commercial or tv show HAS TO HAVE A BUM’S BEARD. And I mean EVERYONE! When the hell did that start? I think they look like hell . . . like they need a bath and a bowl of soup and a place to sleep.
It’s almost as exceptionally annoying that every commercial now has to have a “black” somewhere in the commercial, even if it’s a “white” woman making breakfast for 3 kids . . . one of them is “black.” But you can have a “black” commercial or tv show and NOT have any “whites.”
Do they think we don’t see that crap?

Society as a whole is more accepting of beards and is apparently moving in the direction of the Civil War era when beards were commonplace.
It is interesting how facial hair varies from time to time.
During our founding the leaders were beardless during the CW tremendous beards. World class. Romans-beardless, Greeks-bearded.
Oh, and yes they do think we don’t notice being Deplorables who understand reality only through the eyes of Donald Trump.
