Thread: It Burns! It Burns!

So I woke up late today and didn't get a chance to shave this morning, which usually is alright since my job has me in my cubicle with very little contact with anyone besides my immediate cube-mates.

Today, unfortunately, I forgot about a high-level meeting I had to attend with our senior management and some outside consultants. I'm dressed alright, but being not shaven would not go over very well, but luckily, my long-ago discarded electric razor is kept here at work for just such emergencies. I even have some Lectric Shave pre-shave treatement, and some Nivea ASB as well.

So I set off to the washroom, and shave - at first, I'm thinking, yeah, this is fast but really not at all relaxing - I like my wetshaving so much better. Then I finish up the shave, and think, heh, pretty close for an electric, this ain't so bad.

...then 30 minutes later, all I can think of is "Holy mother! It Burns! It burns! Oh, sunnova [bleeep!]...Ow!!!"

Just thought that this might make you appreciate your shave a little more today.

The other morning I had to shave quickly so I used a disposable. I hadn't shaved with anything but a straight razor for at least a couple of months. I never had razor burn so bad. I don't know if it was the razor or the shaving cream or a combination.

Awesome post that reminds me,,,IF I CAN'T SHAVE WITH A STRAIGHT, I DON'T SHAVE!!!
Now back to real life, that will teach you to forget to shave...
It does make you appreciate the straight much more, thanks for posting this reminder. Hope the meeting went well after all that. lol
