My acquisition disorders went away. What’s wrong with me?

[Owen Bawn]

I’ve recently discovered that there is hardly anything I wish to acquire. This is a bizarre and troubling feeling.

Razors
The Stainless Lupo fits the bill for me in every way. Can’t decide if I prefer the 72 or the 95, but either works great for me. I also have a 50’s flare tip and a 60’s slim that I would be happy with.

I also recently got a few GEM razors which I have used a couple times and like, so I guess we’ll see where that goes.

Blades
I have my favorites in quantity. In no particular order:
Rubie, Nacet, Wizamet, Gillette Platinum. I also like the King C. Gillette, and will likely grab a couple from time to time.

Soaps
Stirling does everything I want. Electric Sheep could be my only soap, but will also keep Stirling Spice, Orange Chill, and eucalyptus Mint around for variety. Also MWF. I don’t expect to replace any others when they run out.

Aftershaves
I have about 10, most of which will be replaced if they run out. Other than a bay rum, which I don’t have, I can’t think of anything I want / need.

Brushes
I would like a nice badger, but they seem sort of cost prohibitive. I wouldn’t mind dropping $100 on a brush I know I’ll love, but that’s a chunk of change for something I might not. I like all the boars and synthetics I have.

I might need help.

I have about 30 badger brushes, all by top quality makers. They are superb brushes. But truth be told, I often wish I had never bought the first one. Many's the night I sit and think I'll take a panoramic photo of them and post it on the BST forum and say "Here are over $4,000 worth of brushes- perhaps as much as $5,000. Take them all for $2,000."

Congratulations! You have found solutions that work for you without the need for further experimentation.

Congratulations!! You have reached Nirvana!

(Just remember that ADs go into remission, but you may just be in remission!)

So true!
