Congrats, you did it — you grew a moustache! Now you’re a manly man. You are ready to kill two stones with one bird. You are ready to bowl overhand. However, having a handsome new facial style doesn’t mean you can forgo your responsibilities around the house.

 As the mustachioed king of your castle, it is important to perform these five manly household duties, like a boss:

Know How to Man a Barbecue

If there is one truth in life, it is this: if you host a barbecue dinner, you must be the one manning the grill…shirtless. If you abandon burgers or dogs for even a second, other men will attempt to take over your responsibility and establish themselves as the alpha male. Don’t let them win. They don’t have half the sense of facial style you do if you must, fight them. [You can also tell them their wife is looking for them.]

More importantly, a man must know the right way to grill and how to properly use barbecue equipment. Under-cook the burgers and they’ll come out looking like meat sushi. Overcook them and you’ll be serving slabs of charcoal. However, if you are a fancy man who cooks steak, a little pink on the inside is acceptable. Some guests won’t eat your steak unless it’s so rare the it’s still mooing. Impress your guests by serving your burgers with delicious kewpie mayo.

Know How to Fix the Pilot Light

Without the pilot light, you can’t use hot water to wet shave traditionally, like a man. When the light goes out, only the man of the house may accept responsibility to turn it back on. (A law in most states!)

Be sure to have your kids present (but at a distance), so they see their father’s bravery. After all, you are putting your own safety at risk to support them. By sticking your hand into the water heater and igniting the pilot light, you do run the risk of burning your entire arm off. If you do, wear your mere flesh wound as a proud battle scar. However, if the issue is complex, you can hire a contractor that provides water heater repair in San Jose.

Treat Your Refrigerator with Respect

Your refrigerator is one of the most vital appliances in your home. It stores all the leftovers you brought back from your hunting/gathering expedition at the local Chinese restaurant. Without these precious nutrients, your moustache would go into anaphylactic shock and fall out.

You must always keep your refrigerator in prime condition. If it’s filled with expired food, clean it out and restore it to its former glory. If it stops producing ice, twirl your moustache as you problem solve how to readjust the wire swing. If your son smears his sticky fingers all over the stainless steel front, wipe the blemishes clean so your refrigerator can look manly again.

Get Down and Dirty

Sometimes the sewer pipe bursts in the backyard, or a family of rats decides to become squatters under your house. It’s just natural to call a plumbing repair company to fix any plumbing repairs and damages on your sewer system. However, with the right tools and know-how, you may try to handle the repairs yourself.

There is nothing more manly than doing housework on a hot Saturday afternoon. Using the best tools for UPVC glazing to install a brand new window. Doing the hard work yourself will demonstrate confidence to your family and in your puny neighbor’s eyes. Just don’t be squeamish or hesitant during the process – that would destroy the manly effect…a moustache is bullet proof.

Build Your Own Man Cave

You’re a busy man, it’s understandable you left most of the decorating to your wife. But there needs to be a least one room to call your own personal domicile. Build the man cave in your garage; wives don’t like to go out there.

Design your man cave the way you want. Stick a moustache magnet on the front of the extra refrigerator to mark your territory; frame a poster of Teddy Roosevelt posing with the elephant he bagged, and buy the biggest TV you can afford to watch Fight Club on a loop.

For special effects, keep a circular saw on the ready. Occasionally give it a few bursts, then pick up a hammer and pound on a two by four loudly. That will assure wife and neighbors that manly man is on the scene. However, for more complicated tasks like heater repairs or tune-up.

Experts recommend you may consider hiring a professional in central heating tune up in Cedar Park, TX who provides Heater repair in Manassas or services like TSS Home Comfort. For plumbing issues like clogged drains, you may need to hire a professional plumber to unclog drains in Frisco, TX.

By following these tips, you’ll earn the right to wear your new moustache and establish yourself as king stache. At the end of the day, sit down in your man cave, open a beer, and proceed to drink. Hops are good for your follicles … ignore any source that says otherwise.
