Signs that wetshaving is taking over your life

You realize you have a huge appetite for wet-shaving when...

You describe high-fiber diets as with the grain and low-carb diets as against the grain,​

Three passes is always better than two passes past the snack table,​

A close shave is when you beat your brother-in-law to the last piece of fried chicken at Sunday dinner,​

J-hooking best describes your reach for a jelly-filled doughnut,​

and​

Weber is the brand of your favorite razor and meat smoker.​

 

Fried chicken...

 

Got the Weber grill so I guess the razor is just around the corner eh?

 

Just don't the two of them confused or the results will be less than expected…

 

Yeah, that would take razor burn to the whole next level.

 

The Weber PH is one smokin' razor!

 

Tho you'd get some really nicely sliced beef for the opposite mistake. Carpaccio anyone?

 

Bloody rare I say.

 

Respect!

 

A sign that wetshaving is taking over my life? That would be if it came at the expense of the other aspects of my life.

For me, traditional wetshaving is something that should be an integrated part of life, something beneficial that makes my life happier and better. Wetshaving should revolve around my life, not the other way around. If it was taking over my life, then my life would be revolving around wetshaving. That would be a bad thing IMHO, unless one is a wetshaving retailer or product manufacturer. Life needs to have some semblance of balance, and over-focusing on shaving, other than for a short learning period, would detract from that balance.

 

It was intended to be more along the humorous line

 

When I discovered that Merkur makes a beard and mustache trim razor that would extend my shave time ten minutes!

 

Shake it off, shake it off................

 

Then why is @richgem posting in this thread?

 

OK, then a sign that wetshaving is taking over my life would be...

If I had to live in the backyard in a tent because the house was filled with wetshaving gear. Until it reached that point, all would be well.

 

May your ringtone mysteriously reset to random penguin noises and go off only in the middle of the night.

 

When you continually find razors in your collection that you don't remember purchasing….

 

I nominate this thread as the best thread of 2014... at least the funniest. I can relate to so many of these.

I haven't seen yet (or I missed it if someone else posted these) -

You don't tell your spouse about the dream you had last night because it was about acquiring a wish-list razor.
You make excuses to SWMBO that your face is aging and needs better products to keep it smooth and supple, hence you need to order more stuff.
You plan your weekends around antique store exploring.
You find it difficult to pass by a flea market when it is open.
You're sad when you realize you just gave away to your son the last Gillette Blue blade you had... time to re-order!
You're ecstatic when someone notices your aftershave and likes it.
