Hello everyone,

My name is Benjamin. I am currently living in the greater St. Louis area. I have been wet shaving for four years, but I am new to social media and very new to forums just generally. I was living under a rock for most of my twenties and I’ve been learning proper social media etiquette the hard way, but I suppose that’s better than not learning at all. I am approaching ten years in the US Air Force with (hopefully) no end in sight. I have a dry sense of humor that is often miss understood so I’m working on cranking that down a notch or two. Hey, sometimes you need to point out your own flaws, it keeps you grounded.

I hope I will enjoy being here, thank you to everyone and have a happy new year.

Benjamin.

Hey Benjamin! Nice to meet you. Welcome to The Cadre!

Plenty of Missourians here! Also you’ll find a large brotherhood of military and veterans as well! Retired Air Force myself.

As far as having a dry sense of humor, I think you’ll fit in. Just remember that the use of smilies goes a long way to enhance the written word on forum, so that folks know you mean something as a joke, so that it isn’t misconstrued.
 
Benjamin @Soap Thing ! So happy you found us! And I for one won't hold the fact that you are in the "Chair Force" against you! 🤪 Seriously though...I think you will be right at home here. We aren't perfect...but we have a lot of fun! Welcome to TSC!
 
Welcome Benjamin! Glad you could join in. A very hearty “Thank you!” for your service!

What are some of your favorite traditional shaving items currently?
 
Great introduction, Benjamin! I just noticed this introduction thread, after I PM'd lol.

What are your tools of the trade(straights, SE, or DE)? Favorite software(Soaps/Aftershave)?

Glad to see another veteran! Thanks!

Matt
