Halloween costume with integrated goatee?

I'm simply not shaving and after many years I'm running out of costume ideas that work with the beard so any ideas would be appreciated. I'm naturally blond but colored it black last year to go as Lobo, so that's an option, but aside from gelling out a cowcatcher and going as Green Arrow I'm stumped this year.

Maynard G. Krebs was the first thing to pop into mind. Something like that, Beatnik style?

A Communist revolutionary maybe? Marx, Lenin, Trotsky...

I read that as "integrated goatse". A novel idea!

How about Zod? Bin bags could work as the costume.

How about Gordon Freeman, from Half Life fame? A bit of dye to darken your hair and a crowbar would be awesome.

I've gone as a woman without shaving, before. I think it made the outfit extra awesome.
I read the post title as "integrated goatse". Very different costume.

Bizarro ___ or Evil ___

You fill in the blank, for example, dress like a zoo keeper and be an employee of an evil petting zoo or in a UPS delivery costume and be an evil UPS man.

Just a heads-up, if you go as a hipster, that thread's a year behind on what to make fun of. Shoot me an e-mail (or better yet, a Mefimail) if you want an up-to-date hipster look.
