Man that was just bad lol.
lol! Sorry, dumb joke I know.
If I were to wade into the brush debate (which I am loathe to do as I think both sides have presented a pretty comprehensive summary of the pros and cons), I'd just say that it is again one of those personal preference things.
If you read around the forum you'll see there is a general favouring of badger. However I'm not completely certain that is based on experience in all cases - another thing you'll notice if you read around the forum is that certain things follow a "fashion" as people discover new stuff (eg Jnat hones, kangaroo strops, certain creams and soaps, and certainly razor brands).
Bottom line is a good quality brush is a good thing - badger or boar. Yes, each exhibit their own unique traits, but in the end it is an implement for imparting lather onto a face (and raising the whiskers, stimulating the blood flow, etc etc) and what is best for, or preferred by, one person may not be what is best for, or preferred by, another.
Anyway, as someone who spent at least 20 years just rubbing lather onto their face with their hands I can say without a shadow of a doubt I prefer using a brush! :)

OK! I have a SR and brush, just working on the scuttle/mug/bowl/whateverthehell, shaving cream, and brush/razor holder.
Should I post what kind of brush and SR I got? Wait? I suppose anyone can PM me and ask.
