3 blades, 5 blades.... Man, you guys are really serious when it comes to shaving your pubes. Oh wait, perhaps I missed something....
I live on the edge when it comes to the pubic region... Nothing but rusty straight razors for me! But for the hairs in my ass-crack, nothing but the best. And that's a 5 bladed Fusion!

I wonder if Schnugg noticed what model the nurse used when she was shaving him before his hernia surgery.

confiscatorily priced Sensor 5-pack

Okay,

I looked up "confiscatorily" and have yet to get an online resource that recognizes the word but did find it in usage. I am guessing it means a price that is too high; please enlighten me.

It's the adverb form of confiscatory, and you've essentially got the meaning right. I can't help myself. That's what happens when your mother is a PhD English prof. Sometimes I have nightmares about that awful red pen as it slashed about nearly everything I wrote as a child. God, please help me! :weeping_1 :D

Damn Brett, you're on a roll........confiscatorily, obsequiously, epistemological. :confused:
I didn't know anyone was keeping track. ;) English, people (claps hands) - get out there and use it.

Thanks for the info.

I am an English teacher wannabe and love the edit feature on Word, the one that puts all your words in red and strikes out all your corrections. I ripped up a poor kid who sent in his NROTC App last week; basically told him he would not get a scholarship and that he was not even ready for college. The proofread version was almost entirely red; I told him to start over and be sure to enroll in summer school composition. His dad is the CEO of a major airline and the CO has taken a personal interest in him. I did not bother to forward my recommendations for this kid to the CO; I am glad I didn't. Who wants to expalin to the Captain why you made his golden boy cry.

That Onion Article is hilarious, but on a serious note, I'm a 2-blade Sensor die hard. I've tried all the various alternatives that Gillette has tried to shove down our throats, including the three bladed wonder that they "sneak" in to the already confiscatorily priced Sensor 5-pack. Those wide 3, 4, and now 5 blade razors are unwieldy and an abomination to manly shavers across this land! I require no extra "lubricating strip" or "whisker spreading fins" in order to tame my beard. The perfect simplicity of the classic Sensor blade is all I, or any self-respecting man should ever need.

I almost pissed myself laughing about the "So Smooth I could do lines off your chin."

On topic though, Unless Im at Jasons Barbershop downtown getting the full lather and straight razor shave, Im an electric man (Linear, rotorys blow).

I go both ways. First, I do a rough once over with the electric, and then I use the razor (Mach 3) to get in close. Of course, I only have to shave a few days.

I have pussy skin, so blades can tend to be a bear, but the Mach 3 is ****-hot in my opinion. That's the best feeling blade razor I've ever used. That being said, I use the Braun self-cleaning electric razor. I love this thing, it gives me a close shave and because it is thoroughly cleaned after every use, it feels great.

See, he goes both ways too. Braun self-cleaning....I love mine after having one for many years that well.....didn't clean itself.

I wish I could go both ways on this... would make my life a hell of alot easier... Electric razors make my skin look like someone took a cheese grater to it. Wouldn't have to go through a whole 15-minute shaving ritual every morning.

Since we're on the subject of razors, for any of y'all that get razor bumps pretty bad, try this: Shave every day with a GOOD razor (not electric) and Aveeno shaving gel. Afterwards, wash your face and use rubbing alcohol for an aftershave. Also try tea-tree oil on your face about 15 minutes before you shave.
