i really want a safety razor because a) you get a better shave and b) you start saving money really quickly
it's just a better product than the shit you get with Gilette, and their marketing to make those razors the default was all-around a bad thing for men's hygiene
curse them and their legacy of razor burn
You've gotta buy the whole kit though. Brush, soap, etc.
Though the soap is amazingly awesome, really.
You don't really
I use a safety razor with bog standard shave gel lathered by hand
Although I do get oiler gel as opposed to soapier
Hmm.
Yeah actually that makes sense. I do use the whole thing though, it's pretty great.
Like, I have one of those safety razors (not sure if this is the US terminology - common razor with a head that you throw away after a while and change for one of an over-priced pack of 3) WITH A BATTERY-POWERED MOTOR!
So, you just shave like with a normal rubbish safety razor but then it vibrates and shaves really smoothly and doesn't give me razor burn or cut me ever.
IT'S AN AWESOME PIECE OF MODERN TECHNOLOGY THAT DID NOT EVEN EXIST WHEN I WAS LEARNING TO SHAVE!
Purposefully choosing some old-timey-coincidentally-a-deadly-weapon razor makes me raise a single eyebrown, spock-like. A spockbrow.
Possibly spockbrow should be a unit measuring polite disbelief.
Straight razor? A single spockbrow.
A fixie? 3 spockbrows.
Also, I've seen someone attacked with a straight razor, and it didn't endear me towards the device much.
In summary, MY RAZOR IS SO COOL I AM LIVING IN THE FUTURE!
Not everything benefits with modernization. Straight razors cut better than any plastic motorized or multi-bladed gimmick I've tried followed by safety razors which are the metal kind you screw new blades into then the disposable razors and last the disposable cartridge.
No wait electrics are last I forgot about them.
My neck, my back, my FUPA and my crack.

i used to work across from a place that did the whole 9 yards with a straight razor shave
used to get one once a week for free because i would send them over mojitos in big quart containers
i only ever shave my neck, really, because i leave the level of stubble on my jaw that has been objectively and empirically determined to be most attractive
but the neck is the most crucial area in which to get a good shave.

theres this pizza place near me where i can order a miniscule pizza (7 inches or something) and then i can get 16 chicken nuggets of varying kinds
and i do that
the pizza is the starter which prepares the way for the nuggetgasm
straight razors are very difficult to use but give a much closer shave, and when done correctly, and combined with balms, hot towels, and aftershaves, can be a very stimulating and pleasurable experience
fixed gear bicycles are excellent ways to get around urban environs
that young people latch onto them as some sort of a gauge of authenticity ought not slight the things in themselves
You are right, bicycles are a great way to get around an urban environment. I don't know that have a fixed gear makes it somehow much more qualified.
Straight razors just seem classy as fuck. Also, I want to shave with a knife.

i try to learn things but i've spent too much brain space on meaningless shit
aaron paul had a cameo in van wilder as "wasted guy"
ben grieve was american league rookie of the year in 1998
thurman thomas is the only player to score in 4 straight super bowls
i have spent far too much time learning about games, and not even on an academic level that's awesome like game theory
we all have our horrible garbage clogging the works
especially if you weren't lucky enough to have domineering intellectual parents who force you to learn things you hate but make you smarter in exchange for a sort of ambient, low-grade psychological trauma

They're cheaper and easier to fix/clean than multi-gear, which is beneficial if you're in a city where bikes will get stolen. Though I can't understand people using them places that aren't as flat as Chicago because fuck that noise.
Also, I definitely need to start wet shaving. But only after I make it through the last packet of safeties since those things are way too damn expensive.

Because i a city you don't really have need for gears. You will pretty much never be going down a steep hill unless you live in like, San Fran, and sometimes you are going to want to be able to go very slowly but still stay upright. The most desirable thing for an urban bike is lightness.

Like, I have to ride over a hill with a 10% incline to get to work and I do that on a 44/16 singlespeed
Rad and I went to one of Lush's new spas. Lush wants them to have a British feel and the deept tissue massage in particular a nautical one. It was actually really nice. And then you finish with this:
There's one in NY!
i honestly don't like it because it reminds me of a house or something

Hmm.
Yeah actually that makes sense. I do use the whole thing though, it's pretty great.
Drink Coke. It's like slapping Hitler.
I'm scared of safety razors and straight razors, because I've cut my ear, not once, but twice, shaving with the newer disposable razors.
I'm bad at shaving.
It’s not a very important country most of the time
