I am suffering from SCAD and SSAD

**kefijlm** · 05-04-2007, 12:34 PM

Now that I have finally learned how to make a proper lather, I find myself wanting to try different things. I can't seem to help but buy different soaps/creams. I am new to the soap world and of course had to buy some woolfat. I then preceeded to buy some Fraser Cream. My wife is probably going to kill me soon and sell my growing collection.

I have:
proraso green
real shaving co. cooling
palmolive red
C&E SA
Arko soap
salters lime (sample)
taylor avacado (sample)
williams soap
van Haagen soap
mama bear hydrogen soap (sample, thanks sue)
cremo creme
jack black beard lube
KOS alphagel
neutrogena razor defense

of course some of these are left over from the non DE days. I can't believe my wife wonders why I need more creams/soaps. OMG now that I have listed them, its kinda scary. I also think the AD is spreading to RBAD and ASAD. I need to stop soon.

Scary? Nah, that's just the pre-stages of full-blown SCAD/SSAD.

It's a start. You will not find a better group of enablers than this one! I'm about to outgrow my first hiding spot and have to clean - actually clean something - in order to get another hiding spot.

If they're all different, well, those are just samples - even the full-size jars.
Now when you have multiple tubs of the same product, and you've yet to make a dent in the first one - that's when you ought to take action.

Just wait till SBAD kicks in... SCAD doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore at that point

SBAD is usually the last AD to rear it's ugly head. And it's deffintely the worse.

Josh, that a nice but modest start.

So you've got a few soaps; what's your point?

First of all, take the samples off your list. Now, pretty short list, right? Now, go get at least two from each of the 3Ts, Tabac, and half a dozen Mama Bear soaps (fewer soaps and the shipping is proportionally to high). Now, Honeybee Sue sells a great 6-soap sampler ... your choice of flavours.

At that point, you have SCAD/SSAD. Until then, you just hang out with guys that have it.

No cure to date!!!

Now comes the fun part....

Wait until it comes time for you to decide to simplify your life and reduce the number of shaving products you have....

WoaHoa Nellie...You will sell, trade, and give everything but the bare minimum away...

BUT THEN GUESS WHAT HAPPENS....MOOOOOHAHAHA

It starts all over again...

You just can't stand it...

To satisfy SWMBO you need to learn "The deer in the headlight look, the shrug, and where did that come from" scenario. Plus have a good sturdy box in the attic or basement.

And as always...

Enjoy your shave...

**kefijlm** · 05-12-2007, 12:00 PM

Yeah,

I have an update, in the last few weeks, I have added

JM Fraser cream
AOS unscented cream
AOS sandalwood soap
TAZGMSC soap
Kent Soap
Susie's squeek and bubbles soap (Eucalyptus, Honeysuckle, and Honey Almond)
Tabac refill on the way as well

I think I am beginning to qualify now.
