Where is the jargon and abbreviations thread...?
For instance
Bbs
Dds
just in terms if shaving first please... maybe a little later we get the ones for sharpening evaluation maybe in the repair thread.

Not sure if there is one. BBS is baby butt smooth I think, like the shave I just had. DDS is probably DFS, damn fine shave. RAD is razor acquisition disorder, hang around long enough, that will become clear, HAD is hone acquisition disorder, etc. Read and learn, best of luck. YMMV.
I am fairly sure i could develop had...
Thanks those are the two that got me most!
This link should help. It has most of the common terms
Acronyms and Abbreviations - Straight Razor Place Library
Thanks for that link!
Don't feel bad. I've been around here forever and they keep inventing new ones and I have to go looking for their meaning.
I consider myself newly jargonised...
MRS was with DIY fixed O1 wedgy... wtg, xtg, atg... throat only wtg atg... no cuts no weepers... but not bbs or dfs... used only soap and swambo's argan oil and moisturizer as...
Edge can't do hht and aproach angle looks more like a shavette than a straight... no irritation though. Which is better than i used to get with multi's or electrics...
Well now, would ya look at that?! He assimilated all that knowledge in short order... just like a borg drone!Quote:

Translate? There is no location set for your profile, so I didn't know translation was necessary.Quote:

Mmm... problem is i only forum on a mobile not really on the desktop... and tapatalk is handy but doesnt show the wiki... and the mobile browser version only see's somme things so then i get confused as to what is available when... and when browsing we muss things... i think a wiki is better for the library... just saying i have to go to my office computer for that...
And type like a cretin while on the touch screen...
Haha. I feel your pain. I do 98% of my internet usage on my Android phone. What is your mobile device? I use a Samsung galaxy s3. It can handle most websites on full desktop version. That is how I use this forum: full version, not hybrid or mobile versions.
Two ways to skin this cat... first is through your device (and it's browser) settings. make sure the default is not "mobile version" for websites you view. Second: this forum has a setting you can change in your profile settings for what "mode" or "layout". I believe the selections within that are "full", "hybrid", and "mobile".
I hope this helps. Feel free to hit back for clarification.
I will try that... s4 tapatalks later revisions make browsing a pain on new forums... ones that you are familiar with are ok...
Ah, see, I just use chrome on my S3. I've heard of some using Tapatalk, but I've also heard it isn't perfect. I rarely have any sort of issues.
Tapatalk was great... then it re-engineered itself as a feed thingy... not useful for browsing in a direct fashion
On my phone, I use Tapatalk for the forums, then switch to the browser if I want to visit the Classifieds or the Library (wiki).
I use the visual assist voice on s5Quote:

Start her off with a DE ;).Quote:
