Just wondering what happens when I get too old and too much floppy skin...guess even more stretching😂. Definitely too much pressure.

Things like floppy skin, wrinkles, battle scars, and cheek hollows come on gradually with age so don't worry, as your life progresses you will be constantly learning your way around these problems.
I think the danger zone for new shavers is in shaves 5-15 when "I got this" kicks in. That's when I got my first cut.
I say it with pride and a smile "Why yes, I cut myself shaving like a REAL man!" Don't really say that, but I do admit it with a smile. Most people at work, church, etc know I SR. The majority are a little jealous I think, and the chics usually respond "That's pretty Freakin Cool" (except for my wife...she thinks it's a little nuts; sexy but nuts)
I haven't cut myself in over a year maybe two. I WAS pretty proud of that until last week. Get this, I was stretching my skin and as I let go it snapped back but the blade was still there. It is so sharp I didn't even know it. I finished the pass and turned around to grab my towel and then turned back around and saw a RED line on my cheek. DANG IT! I was so mad at myself that I applied rubbing alcohol directly to it as a reminder that pain is part of being a man as is shaving. The cut healed already with no scar at all so it was superficial by a very sharp blade. My ego still hurts.
