Straight Razors turned me into a liar.

She's giving me the Sanguine 6/8s. Which would actually be a great razor, one of the best if it didn't need to be brought to the pasted strop every few shaves and stropped mid-shave.

No. What'll happen is that you'll accidentally say the wrong thing and she will notice. Then she will start asking questions, you'll get red, she'll know what happened, you'll get an earfull, you'll feel guilty and you'll have to make up for it.

If my face gets red I'll say it's razor burn from her gift.

She should know better than to give you a Sanguine anyway... :D

I've found there are 3 laws governing this type of thing.

1. The Probability of getting caught by spouse is inversely proportional to the number of razors you already have:

P(Caught) propto (no. razors)^-1

2. The probability that you'll lie again is the probability of the complement that you'll get caught lying:

P(Lie again) = 1 - P(Caught)

3. The amount of grief you will experience if (when) your spouse finally twigs is an exponentially increasing function of the number of razors you own:

(Grief Experienced) propto exp(no. razors)

The constants of proportionality in laws 1 and 3 have yet to be determined. I suspect they are spouse-specific.

My girlfriend is pretty smart, for example from the return addresses she now knows and recognises Lynn's, Classicshaving, or one with an italian postmark (Maesro Livi), then it's bad news for me.

However some things can be sneaked under the radar, for example a 7/8 ATS34/Olivewood Maestro Livi looks quite a lot like a 7/8 Takeda-Damascus/Olivewood from a distance. :w

So upgrades you can often get away with - especially if you sell the one you upgraded from. :D

So, FJ, what special piece of jewelry have you chosen to give your GF to bail you arse outta trouble when the poo hits the fan?? :D

This is the kind of behavior that leads to marriage, be careful, very careful.

:gth :gth :gth :gth :gth :gth

At least you've got the makeup sex to look forward too ...













eventually. :nj
