The power of wet shaving

[Soul Surfer]

I just took a moment to reflect on what's happening here at B&B: an impressive number of interesting folks have united around - of all unlikely things - shaving. From what I can tell so far, many of you are the most awesomely supportive, exacting, eccentric, quirky, potentially obsessive, slightly neurotic bunch of folks out there. In short, I feel like I've found the lost tribe or something (the lost tribe to which I belong, that is).

I just thought I'd take a second to express how great I think this is.

I just hope that I don't eventually end up on an episode of hoarders in a house full of shaving paraphernalia. Then again, maybe that wouldn't be so bad

I agree it's nice to shoot the breeze about common interests with others and thanks to this site my shaving has changed for the better.

You forgot to mention the amount of money you will undoubtedly spend on shaving gear from here on out. It's fun though.

You hit the nail on the head my friend..

 

[troy1979]

Don't forget fiendishly attractive.

Sir, you are sooo correct: we are awesome, eclectic, electric, eccentric, energetic. But you couldn't be more wrong about belonging to The Lost Tribe. A man must not declare that he belongs, for that is not proper. He may be permitted - after at least 150 posts, much experimentation with blades and soaps, sacrificing of one child, and, of course the obligatory bloodletting by blade - again, he may be permitted to be accepted into the brotherhood. This is not so easy, my friend. May the gods be with you on your quest.

The shaving paraphernalia should be the least of your concerns. Wait until you see what else the guys will talk you into buying.

There are any number of other quirky little communities out there - you'll likely be dragged into a few more. It's a good thing.

Or an episode of American Pickers where those two guys open up that barn full of shaving stuff that hasn't been opened in 25 years.

I know, I'm already trying to resist tea and kitchen knives.

 

[Omnichron]

I agree. This community is very special. The camaraderie, and support for everything shaving is unrivaled.

And fountain pens... why would I want a fountain pen ??

Yep, basenotes, for instance. I found them first, though.

And shoes and watches and food......

B&B is an awesome force in the universe. My shipment of Alt-Innsbruck just arrived. A product I would have never heard about if it wasn't for my brethren at B&B.
