Thread: shaving dreams

Anyone else ever have shaving related dreams?

Last night I dreamt that I pulled out my kamisoris and they were all rusted. Not pitted or anything, but heavily rusted - they looked like they had been recovered from a shipwreck or something. I cleaned up one, an Iwasaki, and by the time I got to clean steel the head was the size of a scalpel.

What does it mean? Do I want to know?

You aren't going on any type of cruise in the near future are you?

Well you see, the fact you were dreaming about Kamisori clearly means you have this thing about Japan and the fact they were all in distress means you fear Godzilla will be arriving soon to lay waste to Tokyo.

The fact you ground them down to nothing means that is what Gojira will be leaving behind when he returns to the sea.

Come on, Spendur. You know mothera will save the day.

I've never had a dream about shaving but when I first started, I lost a lot of sleep because I knew I was going to have to shave the next day and it was a scary prospect. Actually I am surprised I perservered but Outback kindly sent me some razors and I felt obliged to use them so it's his fault

Outback is a kind enabler.
I used to have eBay dreams. The big score sort of thing.

I think you may be subconciously worried about cell rot.

I have never dreamed about razors while sleeping. At least that I can remember.

I have had plenty of Day Dreams though!

Yeah I'm kinda like that, but with less ebay and more flea markets.

The "unique piece on a random flea market happening to be there that day" is so much of a trope in my dreams that I usually know I am dreaming BECAUSE of that lol.
The most infuriating thing about such dreams is that the shape of the things keep changing, and the treasure you had in your hand soon is crap.

In my defense, it happens so often maybe because it has really happened IRL a few times. (like "WTF that can't be real" kinda vibe)

You may be on to something. It's been a long time since I've had the time to maintain (or even really use) my razors, maybe I'm subconsciously gettng anxious that my equipment/skills/technique is corroding away.

I think I'll book a day off work soon, make it a honing day. Oh, I have a FBU that I started restoring and has been sitting on a shelf for 6 months now, maybe I should work on that.
