    Default I have a new acronym for us

    I have a new acronym. Let me explain.

    My girlfriend is an avid knitter. Her yarn collections would rival our soap collections. In the knitting world collecting yarn is called your stash and their acronym for that is SABLE. Stash acquisition beyond life expectancy.

    After showing her some of my fellow members soap collections she suggested that we shavers could also benefit from this accurate acronym with a slight change.

    Fellow shavers I give you SABLE. Soap Acquisition Beyond Life Expectancy.

    Enjoy.

    Beyond your life expectancy. I'm going for 150. Just need a few more soaps and creams.

    I've purchased nearly a dozen dozen soaps this month alone!

    Thanks to a recent large sale, my creams and soaps are no longer beyond my life expectancy. I'm down to only a couple of years supply.
