Noshember Facebook DescriptionWelcome to the home of the great annual event called "No-Shave-November" where guys and girls alike unite in the height of laziness agreeing to not shave their beards or legs (respectively) for the entire month of November. After all, it is in the busiest part of the semester or work year, and you are the farthest behind on sleep, so why waste the time? Plus, it is cold enough to wear scarves or jeans (respectively) to cover that unsightly hair. The StoryDuring a brisk November of 2004 at Boise State University, two band members were discussing their capacity for the ways of shear laziness, unkempt, and slovenly ways surrounding their hygiene practices focused on hair. In the midst of their discussion, a challenge was presented, Nick Wynkoop claimed that his ways were the laziest and his beard grew faster than his female band-mate's leg hair. It was a competition of who’s hair growing abilities and self control was truly superior. It was a month to remember... It was Noshember. In the end, her leg hair grew longer, and his beard grew in thicker. The result was a new revived tradition, a more extreme lifestyle adjustment during this one great month of the year where languidness, sluggard ways, and pure apathy about hair growing on the body is celebrated. Surely, No-shave-November was born centuries ago and it is a tradition that boasts a following of avid participants backed with a rich history of laziness and follicle pride, but this page is dedicated to the new-wave of extreme hair growers, and those committed to new levels of laziness, savagery and awkwardness. Welcome to the official home of the great annual event called "No-Shave-November" where guys and girls alike unite in the height of laziness agreeing to not shave their beards or legs (respectively) for the entire month of November. After all, it is in the busiest part of the semester or work year, and you are the farthest behind on sleep, so why waste the time?

The GuidelinesEveryone, young and old, male and female can participate in No-Shave-November by following this simple calendar of guide-lines. The festivities shall unfold thusly:
Nov 1: Razors are stowed, indifference ignited. Noshember begins. Let the race begin!Lets see who is the fullest, bushiest, and most natural after a month, and then join in a ritual corporate shoring of our hides! The Council of Noshember met to decide some critical issues and questions that the peoples have been crying out.Issue 1.The peoples cry out: "Can I keep my existing beard come the end of October and just start from there?" Council's Decree: The goal of Noshember is not so much the contest or even the ritual shaving, but rather the shear laziness of being unkempt and rough together for an entire month. Let us not get bogged down in detail, but keep our eyes on the prize. Or prizes as it were. We're just glad to have you beard-keepers along for the ride.Issue 3.The people's cry out: "Must I leave the chomo hair on my upper lip? It is unsightly and unfriendly." Council's Decree: Again, the theme is laziness and unkemptness. If you are not ready for real laziness and unkepmtness, you can shave the stache, but remember, we encourage you to grow and improve in your slovenly ways. Sometimes sacrifices must be made for the cause.
