@conradhackett Distinguishing between mustache with sideburns vs. mustache with muttonchops is exactly the kind of detail I appreciate.

@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

Why Sideburns are Named as They Are

Today I found out why sideburns are named as they are. It turns out, despite this particular brand of facial hair style being around as far back as at least 100 BC (with one of the earliest known instances being in a mosaic of Alexander the Great), sideburns were named after a specific man in the late 19th century.

@tob @conradhackett the sideburns were styled like mutton chops in 19th century England. Thanks to huffpost for this other chart

WTF Happened In 1971?

https://inflationdata.com/articles/2022/08/10/u-s-cumulative-inflation-since-1913/ "I don't believe we shall ever have a good money again before we take the thing out of the hands of government, that is, we can't take it violently out of the hands of government, all we can do is by some sly roundabout way introduce something that they can't stop." - F.A.
