Am I completely anal for buying all things in pairs?

I confess: I buy objects I like in pairs: razors, soaps & creams, shoes (I mean 2 pairs ), shirts, jackets, watches, ... you name it.

I guess deep down I'm concerned my stuff will break or will be impossible to find in the future. I even feel uneasy when I have 'only one' of something...

Anyone else do this, or am I simply nuts...?

I do the same thing, and yes, we are most definitely nuts.........................

Lightweight! About 9-10 years ago I got a megadeal on some shirts and jeans that actually fit me (I'm 1.96m tall / 6'5") which isn't an everyday thing here - I got 10 pairs of jeans and 2 dozen shirts - 8 pairs of jeans and 20 shirts were "put away"...

I've only just cracked open the last "set"

yeah, when I have the opportunity/funds to do so, I'll do that too

...and speaking of pairs......
(maybe because we are nuts is why we like pairs....)

I'm three hairs away from being certifiably insane with my OCD and I don't even do that.

Ask SepticTank how many bic pens he bought at any one time.

Oi! I wasn't in charge of the ordering when the 2 million Bic biros were ordered... I was in charge of finding space in the stores for them though

No you are smart. Especially with this shaving stuff. If you like it stock up - load the cart! Since I got into this whole trip I've seen a lot of things come and go:

• Corked Musgo
• Harris Aftershave Milk reformulation
• 3T's shaving cream reformulations
• Coates (n'uff said on that one)
• Tallow based soaps going veggie (big, big list here)
• Simpsons becoming SimFix

I've probably missed a few. I haven't been at this thing that long and all these were going on when I got in. So yes there is NOTHING wrong with stocking up on the stuff you like cause you never know........

I was hoping for a zinger like that from you, Shane.

A general rule, if you have to ask, the answer is yes.

That doesn't mean it's not a good idea. Or that everyone else isn't crazy either...

You're all certifiable.


But I like your style.

With the exception of gloves, socks and shoes, yes you are nuts.

Nuts...

...again, if you are "nuts", there is a reason you get things in "pairs"......
just an observation....
