An oddly specific kink, but here ya go:


I was hoping to find one with a Union Jack.

I've recently come into possession of a couple of RazoRock soaps ("For Chicago", "Don Donato", "Classic" and "Tobacco #1"), all which are new to me. All of them perform very well for me and I wondered what they might have in common. As it turns out, in the des...

@jgreenepa - Well, that (the Ronson) is certainly interesting to see.

Thanks.

That Ronson razor looks interesting. Is it a self-stropping head?
Got more pix?

I'm still lost about what a washer is? My guess is that it is some ring like thing we put in screw joints? Yup. They are made in many different sizes, thicknesses and materials. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2f/Washers.agr.jpg/220px-Washers.agr.jpg I never even clean my raz...

There is the Japanese notion of wabi-sabi . In traditional Japanese aesthetics, wabi-sabi (侘寂) is a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection.[2] The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete".[3] It is a co...

Just finished Jojo Rabbit.
It was great.
I thought that 11-year old Roman Griffin Davis who played Jojo was amazing. He nailed it. It reminded me of watching Dakota Fanning in War of the Worlds.

Not a TV show, but a strong recommendation for those who can tolerate humour, satire, and catharsis. Go find a showing or buy a copy of Jojo Rabbit . I've got it bookmarked in Crave On Demand for future viewing. Glad to hear a positive opinion about it. Again on the topic of subtitles, for Japanese...

I highly recommend the German sci-fi show "Dark" on Netflix! The show begins with the disappearance of a child in the small German town Winden, the disappearance of the child is quickly revealed to be linked to a "time travel portal" under the town's nuclear powerplant. It's an ...

In our house the sliver is used until it's malleable when wet and slapped on the next cake of soap. That's what I do. I have noticed that once I get down to about 10% of a bar the performance drops off noticeably - less scent and less density in the lather. I don’t know if this is all due to less a...

An ancient thread, I know, but I found it while looking for Godrej on Google. I just tried some Godrej Shaving Round only recently. It does indeed make great lather. Compared to William's Mug, I find that William's will stay slick after it collapses, but Godrej looks better, and lathers up more quic...

SOTN Aug. 27 The soap is their "Jardin d'Orange" scent.
Razor is a Black-handle SuperSpeed.
Still liking the Shaverboy blades.
