Jonathan Evans: What!? I want to do a post on this. “One Word of Advice for Chris Pine and His Inexplicable Facial Hair.” The copy would just read: “Shave.”

Tyler Coates: Huh.
Jonathan Evans: So weird.
Tyler Coates: You could just publish this exchange. “What Is Happening to Chris Pine’s Beard: A Discussion.”
Jonathan Evans: That’d be pretty funny.
