#muttonchops — Public Fediverse posts

I'm sorry for the English (and yes, I mean the English here), but every time I say "good god" I imagine it being uttered by an Englishman who has a monocle, a mustache, and mutton chops (as in the beard, not as in the meat).

As he says "good god", his monocle falls into a tea cup that he is holding in his right hand. The saucer is held by the left hand.

He also lives during the colonial era.

I know it is a caricature.

I know it's not everyone's cup of tea (some go for the full beard), but I've long liked the idea of Dwarven women from fantasy RPGs having muttonchops or similar sideburns.

Some bit of the Death Gate Cycle seemed to me to imply this, and it stuck in my head canon ever since.

I don't wear the Pith Helmet often, but one day I decided to put on a #HatShow

The muttonchops help sell the whole vibe.

I searched many images from ye'olden days for inspiration

While this hat could well serve it's function on the plaines, it is in very nice condition.

I only donn it with a sense of frivolity.

@robinhood When I was a young pup working retail, we had an assistant manager who was a Civil War reenactor. He was very dedicated, had #muttonchops all year, smoked unfiltered, that sort of thing. (It should be said, he fought for the north.) He was a really nice guy and a good boss. On the other hand, he was a small man. I picture you chasing him like that and can't stop laughing.

@conradhackett Why are they even called #MuttonChops ?

Welp... nobody knows exactly. People are weird! But would you accept instead an article about why they're called #SideBurns
