That's funny. The other morning my husband and I were watching 'We are the 80's' on VH1 while we were getting ready for work. A Hall & Oats video came on. I told my husband "that is an AWESOME mustache!" His reply? "The only people with mustaches are cops and gay cops". Funny things is, he is a cop. Fortunately no mustache.

Back in the 80's, we used to call them `Ball & Scrotes' and laugh heartily at our feeble attempt at wit.
We had really big hair, too.

Having not head that since the 80's, that gave me a chuckle.

Hey, let me know if you ever become an abandoned Farkette.

Hall and Oates is such a guilty pleasure. I know they're cheesier than Parmesan on queso, but their songs are catchy, melodic and the engineering and production on those albums are a joy to hear.

 
baka-san [TotalFark] 2008-01-17 03:08:49 PM  
Is there anything his mustache can't do?

/Well, I'm sure it can't do as much as Dennis Gage's mustache

I would assume that a mustache would get in the way of Tasering minorities.

 
reggiemiller 2008-01-17 03:11:10 PM  
Actually, I saw them on a 1985 tour sponsored by the Pontiac Fiero. Appropriate, because soon both the duo and the Fiero would go down in flames.

Wow, I was going to give Subby a big heaping pile of FAIL before I RTFA. The FAIL belongs to H&O, obviously.

When I was younger I thought it was "Haulin' Oats". Made sense to me. Still makes me smile.

BTW: please post the manatee pic

Since Daryl Hall appeared on Flight of the Conchords, he's to be forgiven for just about anything.

"hall and oats are two people"

"no, holland was his first name, oats was his last name"

The right kind of moustache detaches and can be thrown like a boomerang. When it detects a lower-class citizen it briefly discharges a spray of pepper spray. Unfortunately, they were abandoned upon finding out that these clever weapons were spraying the cops upon return flight.

Sad day for America.

No seedy 'stache is complete without Hall & Oates.

The painkillers are telling me tie "Sara Smile" and "moustache rides" into the same sentence

I still enjoy " She's a Rich Girl "... the 'L O V E ' song a bit tough to take though...

Your so right, its a Mexican thing to have a mustache. But if your a white dude then only cops, and people with a short peener grow one. Funny how most shave there head. Personally I can stand them, it collects too many boogers.

I don't know about that, but it made Marvin Gaye. and Alan Thicke, and Helen Reddy.

Best H&O song evarr: She's Gone

yes way

 
theorellior 2008-01-17 03:20:28 PM  
Here's a fun fact: Hall's first album was produced by Robert Fripp and was considered "uncommercial".

 
Montuckian 2008-01-17 03:20:32 PM  
As a kid, I thought Oates' mustache was pretty cool.

Tom Selleck has always had the finest mustache IMHO. I KNOW his has super powers.

In 5th grade I drew a stellar Magnum 'stache on with a sharpie and went to school. My teacher made me wash it off while all the other kids got to watch Big Blue Marble.

>:(

/Still can't grow a cool mustache

When I was a kid I was always waiting for the "carbon monoxide" line when I heard that song on the radio. Why, yes, I was a geeky kid.

Abandoned Luncheonette is a good album. Beyond that, ehhh.

/I'm just a kid, don't make me feel like a man

As long as it didn't make Gary Glitter.
