Thread: Am I on the brink of a RAD?

Well, since everyone is being so honest....
I started on this journey in October last, and I have two dozen straights with a few more on the way,
four Naniwas, a nice selection of wood and acrylic scales stockpiled and all sorts of doo-dads
(pins, washers, rods, wedges, etc, etc) as well as a new found ability to scavange other people's trash
if I think it will come in handy for razor-related purposes.

I think I'm fairly normal, even when I view a straight online and my pulse starts to race and I
calculate how much longer I can live on baked beans to pay for my "habit" !!

You Sir, have no worries as far as RAD is concerned.

Debt is good !!....We are normal !!....Time for my meds......

I'm LMAO!!!

I only started a few months ago and have since got another few razors at an antique fair, and another couple on ebay and another couple given to me. Only two of them shave, I am restoring the others...

What was that thing about straight shaving being cheaper because you don't have to keep buying expensive cartridges ??

Man, you start right off lying to yourself! I think that's a good indication that there's a problem. :-)

A problem that we all seem to have, however.

Realy normal behavior, enjoy them
