things that make me laugh

the new ad for the razor with SIX blades. the last one was only for four, so now they are increasing the number of blades exponentially i just cant wait to see what comes next.

 

I'm still living in the dark ages. Mine only has 2.

 

And you get two options with them, 1st is the non-powered model, and what gets me, they have a battery powered model, makes the blades move around or shake a bit……wobbles


….I don’t use any at all, still growing a beard…..

 

I have a baby-face also. Use the two blades and gel. Leaves my face smooth and irresistible.

Can you imagine shaving with the battery powered one with 6 blades after a couple of rum and cokes.

Steve

 

My hands are shaky enough that I don't NEED a motorized one.

 

I use an electric Braun - it's a great thing

 

I like the different pain releivers out there. They are called things like Maximum Strength. What comes after that, Lethal Dose?

 

Those frighten me just like electric toothbrushes... it actually works better?

 

They will never run out of things to come up with.

Toothbrushes are the same. Every model cleans better, or has an angled head.


As far as electric shavers are concerned, just thinking about them gives me a rash.

I don't know how anyone can use them.

I have very sensitive skin, and I'm extremely delicate, so only the best shaving gel and razor for me.

Same thing for my face too.

 

I love my 3 blade gilette vibrator....OOOOOPS...meant to say vibrating razor!!

Even if I did want the next up and coming better model....I'll have to wait until I get equity on my home so I can finance the refill blades!!!!

The blades are so expensive, they lock them up in a security cabinet in my local supermarket.

Have to admit though, they shave great.

Not the battery crap, but a decent 3-4 blade razor and gel.

It leaves my skin so smooth, that people in the street want to pinch my cheeks. (no smart-arse comments)

I've even been asked to be a stand-in on baby commercials.

 

If the blades are so expensive why don't people use an electric razor? I don't really know much because Id on't have a beard yet, lol. I can imagine in 100 years they will have 20 blade razors.the commercials would go something like this.

Do you think 19 blades is ridiculous? THINK AGAIN! The shick 20(c) HAS THE POWER OF TWENTY! buy the shick 20tm to get teh closest shave possible!

 

Because they don't shave as close, and can give people severe razor burn.

They can also cause ingrown hairs.

I can't, and won't, use electric shavers.

 

Hrm, while I was in the military, I prefered either straight razor (I.E. the knife looking thing). Or sometimes when I had less time (during a late nite) used a generic 2 blade shaver.

NOW, I'm out of the military, I have a full beard, that I trim with an electric beard shaver.

 

Hate shaving??? Tired of stubble and razor burn ?? then try
the all new gillette 2bhead never worry about shaving again!!!!!!

 

My best shave is a Gillette triple blade. I don't see the need for five blades, but the trimmer on the other side sounds like a good idea. And a vibrating razor...not gonna go there.

 

You speaketh the truth. At first I thought you meant the battery powered razor, not a battery powered shaver. But as insomniac says, they don't get close enough. Now the actually razors with batteries? That scares me.

 

Razors? What is that? I have had a beard since 1969. When I go get a haircut, they also trim the beard. Even I don't remember what I looked like without a beard.

electric shavers give me the mother of all razor burns, and I can get a closer shave with a simple Gilette Trak II. What REALLY makes me laugh is people falling on slippery surfaces(as soon as I know they aren`t seriously hurt)because I`ve been known to do so myself. In fact, when I fall, noone laughs harder than I do because it`s easier than letting the pain take over. Go figure, I fall, and I choose to live in the "snow belt".

 

I don't know about in the states but the battery powered ones have "NITRO" in the name and have adverts involving cars...

Fast cars...

Razors....

Other than the male thing, is there any real link between them? Hmmm....

Personally, I just have a pretty standard 3 blade jobbie, for which the razors are not TOO expensive.... but they still aint cheap!

 

I get about 4-6 uses out of each cartridge, so it can cost a bit over a few months.

 

Question for men...why do heads go bald but chins never seem to. Would be a lot cheaper if they did

 

It's a fallacy that only men go bald.

There are as many bald women as there are men.


I'm very lucky, I have full, thick hair and will never go bald.

 

You just ruined my whole day.
I thought you looked exactly like your picture.

 

Yes! Seeing people fall is about the funniest thing ever! I saw a guy fall off his bicycle the other day while sitting at a red light. Made my whole day. The funny thing is, I look over on the sidewalk and there was like three women standing outside the bank on their smoke-break, and they were all cracking up too! Nothing brings people together like seeing someone fall.

I HATE shaving. I have the most sensitive skin, I'll only do it every other day, and never on the weekends because my face turns beet red and burns like hell for about three hours afterward. I'd love to have a full beard, but every time I try my wife gets all mad. Oh well.

I don't mind shaving it off, if that's what you want.

 

I wouldn't ask you to do that.

Everyone should just be who they are.

 

You can use the good razors 3 or 4 times (if your girlfriend doesn't shave her legs with them) so it's worth the cost.

Steve

 

A pack of 10 decent Gillette cartridges costs about AUS $20.

If you use them a minimum of 4 times each, then each shave costs about 50c (not including gel etc off-course).

That's pretty expensive.

It doesn't cost that much to wipe my fat arse (or give me a rash).

 

It's worth it, razor-burn is a bitch.

Steve

 

I can't shave everyday or use cheap razors, I wouldn't have any face left.


The worst ones are the Bic or no name disposable ones, 20 in a pack for $2.

Those things would slice your Christmas turkey. OUCH!

 

Those things will irrigate your face.

Steve

 

Those things are like a deli slicer!

You need an blood transfusion after using one of them.

 

I can't shave every day either. I like 4 days between, but I look like hell. Also my wife doesn't care much for the "sandpaper" so usually every 2 days. I get about 8 shaves per blade at that rate. That's a pretty cheap scrape. (I'm a cheapscrape )

 

You know what REALLY makes me laugh? (re: the title of this post)

That commercial for the new Pink Panther movie where that lady is trying to teach Steve Martin to say "I would like to buy a hamburger". I can't stop screaming "Duburgah!"


The rest of the movie looks dumb, but that "hamburger" bit crack me up!



-Steve

 

Hmmm. I recently 'upgraded' from a 2 blade razor to 3. Can't say I really noticed the difference - except that they cost over twice as much. I too, have a delicate complexion, LoL!

I even have to keep changing shampoo brands as they start irritating my scalp after a while. ...Or maybe I'm just easily irritated, eh.

 

Hmm, we probably all mistake them for overweight bald men...

 

So you're saying I'm not really gay after all?

 

I still use the ole' leather strap sharpened Bowie Knife...

Makes for a more interesting morning...

 

I have more hair in my ears than my head?

 

Keep my razor in a jar with about 2 inches of rubbing alcohol in it, just enough to keep the blades submerged.

Keeps the blades clean and sharp, razors last for ever!!!

 

Vodka works better!!!!

Roger

 

I was married, and raised two daughters. I went pretty much most of my adult life with a secret razor stash. Amazing, my ex only shaved her legs once or twice a week, and she could burn out a quality razor in a week faster than I could, even though I shaved every day. Do you know how many times I heard...."No Honey...or no Daddy, I didn`t touch your razor...even though I only used it once and looked like I had been shaving with broken glass? I`d rather fall on icy concrete(I did today)and laugh, then let ANY woman in my life use my shaving goods. Anf they call me a hairy beast LMAO.

 

I have a whole beard these days, but I did shave, I would hang razor up high, where only I could reach......everybody else is 5 feet 3 inches tall, I'm six feet five inches....worked for me........wobbles

 

6' 5"! You can do anything you want Wobbles.

Steve

 

petalumas avatar made me laugh lol

 

I gotta try that. It's probably oxidization that kills the blades. I'll report back in a month with the results.

 

I found olive oil works better.

If you don't want to use olive oil, mineral oil is OK.

As long as the blades don't come in contact with air.
