Thread: n00b from CT!

  1. #1

    Default n00b from CT!

    I ventured here from an EDU a member posted on Offtopic.com. After spending tons of money on Mach3 razors I am ready for a most cost-efficient way to groom as well as a hobby during the winter months.

    Just checking in... I'll do a search for the pay in forward threads now!

    Welcome! Not sure how cost-effective you'll find it once you're afflicted with RAD and SCAD...

    I'm already a Blackberry addict, at least with this my gf will support my addiction as she hates it when I do not shave.

    Welcome to B&B.

    You can handle it.
    It'll never be an "addiction."
    You can stop whenever you want to.
    You don't have to buy multiple razors and creams and aftershaves and...

    Nevermind. I'm off to purchase some Tabac. Happy shaving

    I'm debating if I should give it one last go (about 3 days of stubble) with the Mach3 or wait for everything to arrive mid-week.

    The good thing is that I'll be working from home most of the week so appearance really doesn't matter.

    Welcome to the B&B. The first rule is we shop regardless of what wives and girlfriends say.

    Not really, but it sounds good.

    Shep is right. We pretend that we don't listen to our wives and girlfriends. We usually do. Then when we don't, something bad happens.

    Welcome aboard! Enjoy yourself here.
