Coffee Housed!

I'm just glad it wasn't the one about dirt.

I'm at the point in life where some grey hairs are popping up in my beard. Not many. I could probably count them on two hands.
 
The weird thing though is some of these buggers SPROUT. Like... night before = no grey hair there, next morning = wow... that three inch grey hair that is longer than the rest of the surrounding hairs that wasn't there last night is totes freakin' me out!
 
I will say though... the nice thing about having a beard is you don't have to worry so much about ear and/or nose hair. There's so much fur that it all just blends into itself.

It's my understanding that they don't "sprout" but one of the darker hairs that's already grown out loses it's color and becomes gray (or grey if you prefer).

Heh... yeah I figure that's the more likely answer but it's funny to think about some hair folicle playing "The Little Whisker That Could" in the middle of the night as I drool into my pillow.
 
"Iz is goana be the LONGLIEST and the GREYIEST hair EVAR!!!!"
 
They still seem to grow faster than other whiskers after they turn "zombie" anyway. Maybe once the folicle doesn't give a fart about producing pigment it can focus on pooping out hair at a faster rate.
 
/Derp Thoughts with Beeps Herpdy

I have that one freak nipple hair that's about an inch and a half long. I keep tweaking the little bugger out but it always comes back. I also have a stray eyebrow hair that's twice as long as the rest. Every time I get my hair cut she says "want me to get that for you?" Again, a futile procedure. 

 
One day I noticed a few gray hairs in my beard. Woke up the next morning and holy crap...
 

 
There's more power in grey beards.
