Gillette Bicott?

[EddieSlick]

I understand English is not their first language, just found it hilarious and odd that they would single out a particular brand.

 

[Eeyore]

Yes, but I get where they are coming from; American, throw-away mentality, and no beards ... that must be three pretty offensive things for some.

Not saying that I agree with them

If it is something they would not normally purchase in the first place, then how can it be a boycott? I mean, if folks HERE decided that Gillette were the devil, that's one thing, but these guys?

I started my own boycott of Gillette over a decade ago. Boycott is the wrong word since I was not necessarily anti-Gillette so much as I was anti-the-pound-of-flesh they were demanding for cartridges. A quick perusal of the shave aisle in Walmart the other day reveals that P.T. Barnum was never more correct.

Clicking this I actually thought that this was going to be a genuine call for a Gillette boycott. That would have been one hilarious thread

That is funny. Thanks for posting.

Would someone please let them know it's, "weird"? Thanks.

Actually, it's "worn".

I thought it was beard.

Corrected the thread title.

Are we sure this is not a Monty Python sketch?

I think they're encouraging boys and girls to join.

I will not buy this record, it is scratched.

I suspect they are boycotting a Gillette manufacturing facility in a Muslim country, not necessarily the razor itself.
