Update README.md

Had to revamp this because I that old code made me think of other things...
- bb is a droid on Star Wars
- bm is bowel movement
- bs is... well, you get the idea.

New expression for b allows for multiple areas to be defined for hair growth

### b beardliness/facial hair ### b beardliness/facial hair
As facial hair plays some sort of role in geek space, serving as an expression of style, countercultural proclivities, etc. etc. and [unix beards](http://www.usenix.org.uk/content/unix_beards.html) being a thing we give it a category here despite its irrelevance to some fraction of the population.

The hair code is divided into 5 parts, delimited by a colon. The parts are (head:beard:brows:mustache:sideburns)
``` ```
b = beard +++ = Some people look at me and think I'm Sasquatch I have so much hair
bm = mustache ++ = Amazing hair growth!
bs = sideburns + = Some hair growth
bb = bushy eyebrows = Average
- = Less than normal, partially shaved
-- = Bald / Shaved
--- = Alopecia / Unable to grow hair there
``` ```
Thus b++/bm++ means impressive beard with equally consequential mustachio. Leave blank for no facial hair.
Thus b_:++:+:++:_ means that geek has an average head of hair, with an impressive beard, thick brows, an equally impressive mustachio, and ordinary sideburns.
