    I had purchased a can of Barbisol just before I started wet shaving. Used a little bit on hones. After a few years I decided to use it up. With the addition of a brush and added water, it actually works quite well for shaving.

    1: Plan your escape route. For example leave your room door open for easy reentry.

    2: Take an LP record jacket and flex it open and spray in goo.

    3: Slide the open end under someones dorm room door from the hall way side.

    4: Stomp very hard on the upper side of the record jacket.

    5: If the room was occupied use your planned escape route. If not remove the liner and walk away like nothing is
    amiss.

    Warning, I read this somewhere and have never practiced it in person so do so at your own risk.

    First and foremost--you need to know if someone is Right or Left Handed--

    When I was in boot camp if someone fell asleep on their bunk, we'd spray out a really big glob of the canned shaving cream into someone's hands then they would place the blob on the Back of the sleeper's hand--then you would use a feather to tickle their nose--

    Invariably they would use their glob loaded dominate hand to smear the crap all over their face--

    Funny as hell till it happened to me!

    Saw that done first hand in my college dorm.

    We used a big manilla envelope. Every top desk drawer had a plywood board that slid back and forth on top of it. It supposedly was there to hold a typewriter.

    Fill the envelope with goo...put opening under door...put board on top...jump and land on board

    You buy a bag of crackers and put it on them as a topping.

    I'll be the usual voice of dissent and say that I used to get great smooth shaves with Edge Gel and my trusty old Gillette Sensor, and I'm sure I still could. But we have all been spoiled by the many soaps and creams that are far better.

    I wouldn't mind having a can of Barbasol around for the nostalgia of it if nothing else (and yeah, for Roy's practical joke with shaving cream in the sleeper's hand, which we also used to do).

    It's great for port-matching cylinder heads without removing them.
    Fill the port with Barbasol and do your work.
    As-done, vacuum out all the shaving-loaded Barbasol from the port. Viola!

    As I reread this I can think of a step 1.5

    Take a few pennies. Depending on the slop of the door. Quietly tap them between the door and the frame on the latch side. This creates enough friction between the latch and the strike preventing unwanted opening from the inside.

    If this is successful, after injecting the goo you can stand and laugh in the hallway with no possible immediate recourse from the occupants.

    Removing the hing pins from the inside doesn't work...

    Warning, This is against fire codes and I have only read about this and have never practiced it in person so do so at your own risk..........
