Mo idols

Everyone needs an idol, something or someone to aspire to and to be inspired by. When I was growing up I wanted to be the weatherman on TV, then he forgot to forecast a hurricane and the trees fell down the next day and my dream was shattered. Even small countries like Australia need an idol, hence the need to saturate our screens with the quest to find one once a year.

Idol: not the only Matt with plenty of hair but too soft to grow a mo





Mo growing is no exception and the boys from Canberra have been seeking inspiration from their heroes this week as their facial forms evolve into unrestrained beasts. All this grown up mo business seems to have gone to Ben’s head, turning him from a good little boy into a hairy ruffian. We caught him in the toilet the other day (it happens… we’re close in Canberra) and were shocked to see him trying to emulate yet another Australian criminal, Chopper Read. We think he’s even trying to talk like him, but are not too sure if that’s just caused by all the V he’s been drinking.

Neil, as Neil does, looked towards the great mothership of olde England for inspiration. Being the... er… athletic type with a fondness for TV commercials it was natural of him to remember an ad featuring two decidedly dodgy mo adorned runners. Neil is clearly getting more feral as each mo minute passes and his worrying idolisation of these brutes is a further step on the dark hairy path of no return. On the plus side, he is getting a bit more exercise and seems to have even taken up running in front of whiteboards.



Jason is just plain desperate and needs a stroke of genius to propel him into the alpha mo position. Like In Rugs Warehouse and "so mad their crazy" liquidation sales, genius and Einstein often go hand in hand. Not only was Einstein a genius, he had a great mo, and this winning combination has wooed Jason into a slightly crazed stalker type worship of the late physicist. He’s even tried to activate his few remaining brain cells by coming up with complex mothematical equations in the hope of solving the age old problem of achieving the perfect mo.

Whilst inspiration from legendary mo’s across the world has given much needed focus and direction to our grooming, it is only through continual support that our sprouting hairs can blossom into utopian specimens. You (yes, you!) can keep us motivated by chipping in to help in our efforts to raise money for male health issues. Thanks again to those of you reading this who have contributed to our cause. For those who haven’t, details of how ridiculously simpler this is than going out to buy an overpriced flat white are on the right. You too can share in the mo love.
