    I have to nominate @Linuxguile for “Best Enabling Move”. After asking what would prompt someone to buy an expensive, modern razor instead of a less expensive, vintage one, he responded:
    “The same reason any other high end razor is desirable. It looks good, it is machined out of stainless steel, it's nearly indestructible, it looks good, it's heavy, in this case it's adjustable, it looks good. You see where I'm going with this.”
    Since that time, I’ve been struggling mightily with the urge to buy three different modern razors simply because they look good.

    If you're like me, you'll pick the one you like best, buy it, and eventually end up with all three. :)

    If two guys mentholate their nads I will send a straight to the second person. :signs136:

    What if I throw in a AoS tallow soap? :signs136: :signs136:

    Sounds like wax on wax off to me.

    RyX DoH!

    I don't recall if the discussion about the “Cold Cohones” award had any nominees yet. There were at least two 30DC members that used Stirling glacial bath soaps.
    There's one!

    Since others are offering the prize out on this one, they may wish to set the level of Menthol in order to qualify for the “Razor Level” Prize. In my mind, those levels are:
    - Iced Level Bath Soaps
    - Glacial Level Bath Soaps
    - Iced level AS
    - Glacial Level AS
    I’m assuming to get a razor, you gotta at least go AS, but I could be wrong. (Please clarify @Drygulch and @Keithmax). If nobody goes full on AS, I’m happy for the highest Soap Level nominee to get something from my group of prizes.

    It is my most sincere hope that the folks from the 'no pictures, it didn't happen club' can just accept this one!

    Let me make it clear that the Academy will not be soliciting or reviewing any photo evidence in this category.

    I leave to the menthol expert @Drygulch to make the selection.

    Regarding evidence, I think we all agree with no videos or pictures but we need some evidence. I think an audio recording plus a spouse as a validating witness are acceptable as evidence.

    The Academy is proposing changing out @clint64’s original photo for the following. What say you?
