It's just a trend. 70's and early 80's sign of virilty. Add chest hairs to that. Then, it became gross and people started shaving and waxing, haha!

If anybody has any questions about ‘staches and Joe, I recommend they look up Robin Olds and prepare to eat crow.

If you’re asking for anything more than proof of life though, you’re SOL. My guess is that he might be in the medical field and severely overworked just now...but I am only speculating. |

In the minds of most children, facial hair is synonymous with being really old. (I still feel that way, actually.) So it would be like playing with an action figure of your dad, or something.

He appeared in a video or two during HCC788’s Cobra Convergence event this past August, that is, August 2020, and seemed like his normal self. For several months prior to that, people would ask about him in the live chats on that channel, but no one knew anything, and he had been incommunicado as far as HCC knew.
If you’re asking for anything more than proof of life though, you’re SOL. My guess is that he might be in the medical field and severely overworked just now...but I am only speculating. That's the only fault I find with formbx257, his reluctance to make any sort of definitive quality judgement. He seems like such a nice person that he may be overly concerned with not offending anyone.

Yeah, thank you for pointing that out. I somehow hadn't discovered HCC788's videos until rather recently. They're often very funny. Plus I like that he offers such passionate opinions, even if I sometimes strongly disagree.
