Just curious, do any of you chaps use an electric shaver on a regular basis?

I used one about 10 years ago (a remington) and got fed up with it rather quickly because it was uncomfortable to use. The fast moving cutting blades made the protective foil hot and this caused an unpleasant sensation on the face, causing irritation.

Have shavers progressed since then? are they really a viable alternative to wet shaving?

Be glad to get your opinions.

the ubiquitous garden tub (which never gets used)

*gasp* You mean like an extra large, with room for plants around it, and water jets built-in kinda tub? Oooohhh.

Forget sinks. If I had a tub like that, I would LIVE in it, and my man could do whatever he wanted in whichever sink he felt like using.... I'd never use a bathroom sink for anything but getting my toothbrush wet ever again.

Yep. But the few times I've seen her use it she had candles around it, no plants.

What's up with women and candles around the bath tub?

Dunno. I couldn't care less about candles or plants... it's the extra large tub with jacuzzi jets I'm after. :)

C'mon down in the dead of night with a dog sled, pack mule, or pick-em-up along with a plausible explanation I can use for its absence, and I'll let you haul it off.

P.S. Since I don't know what tools are needed, bring your own.

Gee, now we've gone from the shave to the hot tub. Where are we headed next, the sauna? This is getting more interesting by the minute. ;)

Hey guys, have you ever taken a good look at yourselves in the mirror when you hold your mouth together and move it far to the right and left while shaving?

Not Brett of course, he shaves in the shower so a mirror would get fogged up.

They make shower-shaving mirrors that are supposed to be fog proof. :) There's hope for Brett's kind yet!

I think tub removal would involve pipe wrenches, chisels if it's tiled in, or a good sturdy box knife if it's just calked around the edges... I need more details here!

Yes mivox, there's hope yet, because we have the answers!

Man, I've been dating the wrong women all these years.

We've collectively come up with the perfect solution for you, Brett! You get a fog proof mirror, and take your girl friends into the shower with you to watch you shave.

Hope it's a big shower. <cheeky grin>

So let me get this straight... is a harem part of the Admin benefits package at WebmasterWorld? ;)

There are a few perks, but that isn't one of them, Dante.

At one time I was the local "Coupon Queen," buying up bargains just to save money. That can turn out to be an expensive hobby, not to mention the storage problems.

I know some of you guys like plain old soap instead of shaving cream, but how can you ignore all the shaving cream and gel coupons that are printed in the market ads every week? Sometimes it's practically free. At one time I must have had 10 cans of it around the house, and that's without having a man around. How can you resist?

"Coupon Queen" - I like it!

I'm always on the hunt for a bargain, but 10 cans of shaving cream just for you. Surely that is a bit OTT? :)

>10 cans of shaving cream just for you

I don't even use it, I don't shave. And back when I did I used soap in the shower. I haven't got a hair on my legs, which is from wearing tight jeans for years. Now, if you guys would wear something that tight over your heads you wouldn't need to shave any more. Of course, then you wouldn't need to breathe any more either.

>mirrors

Who needs a mirror? If you use soap, you can just run your free hand over your face to make sure you got everything.

>candles and water

It's the water thing Lawman. A woman could say no to you every day for 10 years; but, jump in a hottub ringed with a few candles and the message changes to, where ya been all my life hansome?. It's like magic.

i really really really hate shaving.
like i REALLY hate it.

but i hate beards too. i remember my geography teacher at school had a big ginger beard and he always had bits of vegetable soup stuck in it. makes me shudder every time i think of beards .....

i'm lucky cos my facial hair grows slowly so i can get away without shaving for about 3 or 4 days before the stubble looks scruffy. but then i look scruffy all the time anyway - tatty old jeans, tatty old t-shirts etc - i tend to shave once a week just to avoid the dreaded beard ...

i do make a special effort to shave when i have to meet a client for the first time or when i'm out on the town. i use a blue razor, probably gillette or something (can't be bothered to go upstairs and look). i tried electrics years ago but kept dropping them and breaking them.

and as for waxing bikini lines ..... maybe there is a better job waiting for me ..... hmmmm .......
