2's Day, February 22, 2/22/22

[Sinnbad11]

This upcoming year, 2022, February 22nd falls on a Tuesday. That makes the date Tuesday 2/22/22.

To celebrate such an odd date I have decided I'm going to shave with double everything, two razors, two blades, two brushes, two soaps, and to finish it off two aftershaves. The ultimate daily double on the "twoiest" of days.

I'm posting this plenty early to spread some awareness that such a date will exist and to ask the all important question:

Does anyone care to join me?

So as not to confuse anyone, for those of you in Europe that's 22/2/22.

I had not even thought about it. Interesting shaving concept, use 2 of everything.

This is slowly sneaking up on us gents! Just a reminder that 2's day is coming. I suggest a practice run on 2/2/22 which is on a Wednesday (I know, blasphemy!)

Sure hoping a few people will join!

12/22/21 is coming up sooner if you want to get an early practice session in before the end of the year. It’s a palindrome day.

I'm trying to work out the logistics of this in my head but it sounds intriguing.

If you won't be using two sinks too, then your challenge is in vain.

 

[BobbyB]

Sounds like a fun idea. I will try if my resources permit.

I might just give it a shot, one bathroom is pretty close to my kitchen.

 

[Balthier]

Apparently geofatboy has already had part of the idea down using two razors at once.

I have two sinks in my bathroom, so I’m good to go!

Well of course. During prep time, "my" side is filled with water for rinsing, and the boar brush soaks in it while I wash my face and brush my teeth on "her" side.

I'm in! I hope there will be reminders. That date is still over the horizon.

Two soaps (prep and shave), two razors (SR for N-S and a hoe for sideways work); this is not uncommon for me. Two of everything? I think I even have two styptic pencils, in case the doublings are all too much.

Meanwhile, maybe some practice shaves will be posted to the Daily Double thread.

Certainly! I jumped the gun a fair few months. Especially considering that there is not much prep work for those of us on this forum, I think most here have at least two of everything.

Stick around!

There's more: 3/3/33 will be on a Thursday.

What will you do, then?

Synchronicity city!

So as not to confuse anyone, for those of you in Europe that's 3/3/33.

 

[Sinnbad11]

Maybe I'll pick up a decade restraint between the two!

Even if I were to be successful I'd expect to have at least three of everything lying around.

 

[Sinnbad11]

It is officially 2022 folks!

For those b'n'bers who don't have at least two of everything to shave with and who are interested in participating I'd recommend placing orders soon. ( not sure this is necessary for anyone here)

Looking forward to the doubles on the twosiest of days!

 

[BradWorld]

Can it be two different razors, soaps, etc?

 

[Sinnbad11]

I'll be doing double of everything, two razors, two soaps, two aftershaves, and two brushes.

To keep it reasonable I'll likely use a badger and a boar, my top razors, and reasonably similar scents.

Sounds like fun. I’m in.
Now would someone remind me when Valentine’s Day is approaching so I don’t have to by my wife a card that says To My Special Friend? I’m still hearing about that one!
