    Default Bird box challenge?

    So, all these fools are emulating this movie so is there anyone brave enough to do it for shaving with a straight?

    We used to have a member who was blind who shaved with a straight.

    I don't wear my glasses while shaving so it is close for me every morning......

    Seriously I don't think it would be as hard as you would imagine.

    Like 32t I remove my glasses to shave both sides of my face. It's a little blurry but I still know where the razor is.

    The sense of touch would be very hard to shave without.

    I have shaved without a mirror so I suppose that counts.
    What a curse be a dull razor; what a prideful comfort a sharp one

    Unaware of whatever this "Bird Box" challenge might be, FWIW. How does this compare to the level of Tide pod eating fools?

    I clean up the rear of my neck using only touch. So far, so good. I have no plans to head shave or anything.

    I guess it's basically being blind for the day. You leave the house with a your eyes covered up and do your normal things. The movie it's based on is on Netflix and right now they are very concerned about lawsuits if someone does it and comes to an untimely end.

    WTH?! That would hardly be safe to do inside the home let alone taken to such an extreme.

    Hmmm....maybe this all goes back to the eXtreme marketing movement. "Just do it!" gives way to Red Bull stunts. Extremely dangerous and foolish are winning huge. A few recent stories of hikers falling to their deaths while taking "selfies" from lookouts above waterfalls, cliffs, etcetera come to mind.
