Movember teams up with Funny Or Die to expose why the Mo is better than a beard

Ryan O'Flanagan

Movember has teamed up with the award-winning comedy brand Funny Or Die to celebrate the heroism, beauty and valor of the moustache. Comedian Ryan O’Flanagan is here to expose the truth about the moustache vs. beard debate. He has facts, he has sources, and he has an eerily similar looking pogonotomy expert to help explain why the moustache is the ultimate in men’s facial hair.

And no, we’re not talking about just any type of facial hair (sorry, not sorry, beard). Anyone can grow a beard, but a moustache has meaning—it’s a powerful upper lip accessory. It commands attention, demands a double-take, and compels lifesaving conversations. And that glorious Mo could lead to a conversation about the fact that men, on average, die six years earlier than women from largely preventable reasons. We at Movember are trying to change that, and we need your help.

With the money you raise, we fund ground-breaking health projects across mental health and suicide prevention, prostate cancer and testicular cancer - over 1250 projects so far. But our work isn’t done. More moustaches means more conversations, donations and lifesaving awareness. So this Movember, grow out your moustache, any moustache. Because whatever you grow will save a Bro.
