Welp, zapped myself right under the eye again. I should have a permanent movie star type scar there in 10 years or so.

Dave, Dave, how many times do I need to tell you shaving you eye area will not get rid of bags under the eye? Glad it was not any higher.

So how much are we talking here? A "snurdle" is a well-understood and exact measurement. Did you use a half-snurdle, quarter snurdle, 3/8 snurdle, or what? Inquiring minds need to know!

We do not use the word "Snurdle" anymore when this was pointed out by a scholary member..... WARNING not for the faint of heart or Children... May induce dry heaving, vomiting, or the yellling of "THAT's SICK" spontaneously...


Snurdle
From Urban Dictionaary:
Snurdle; the perverse act of surreptitiously sniffing the still warm bicycle seat of a female cyclist after she has just vacated the saddle. Usually for purposes of cheap sexual thrills and more often than not accompanied by pig style grunting noises.

Snurdling; the commission of the act of the snurdle.
"Yes officer. I'd just stepped off my bicycle when this man appeared out of nowhere and started to snurdle in broad daylight".

"Thank you Mrs May. We'll take it from here. Ok sicko, in the back of the van and no funny business".

 

[NurseDave]

Kidz these days. Need a term for everything.

Another def is...
to sniff around looking for something such as food or critters
Ex. Our dog likes to snurdle around the kitchen floor looking for crumbs.

I know the yungins used to use that term and snogging for sex don't see how it could be used here for that though.

3/5th

That's a healthy amount, given you got good results with 2/5.

Scars are a requisite component of the cool factor of open blade shaving

What the heck? I thought I at least posted Tuesday. And didn't take a pic that day so have no idea what soap and brush I used.

Curiously, I rarely have that problem.

Help, this could explain why my shave was tuggy today. I thought I had some shaves left on this blade, but nope. I should have checked. Well, it ended blood-free anyway.

Not too many updates. My daughter turned 15 on Tuesday and she chose Hawaiian BBQ for dinner and cake with Boston cream filling. Good enough for me! The whisky group gathering on Sunday was canceled because of a lack of participants. A few folks mentioned they aren't ready to get together in a large group yet with folks they don't know. Guess that makes sense with cases going back up. I did score a spot in an online tasting with Savage & Cooke this coming Tuesday and with Rezpiral next month. Really looking forward to Rezpiral because I've been curious to taste mescal for the first time, but have no idea where to start.

Haven't really been able to get much into mezcal or anything agave but should be a fun experience with Rezpiral!

I’d be perfectly happy to find out I don’t like it and have no need to buy any more! I just heard it’s smoky and need to know.

 

[NurseDave]

WTF???

So I don't know if this razor is showing me how out of practice I am or the blade combo is a bit aggressive compared to the Proguard. I swear I was being super gentle, not even letting the full weight of the razor do the shave. Yet earned me a couple of weepers in the neckle region. BTW, has anyone seen Graydog around?

Well, ya done messed up A-a-ron. Or myself anyway. I haven't bought any shaving items for a long spell. Scents don't count because that's for my day-long ambiance, not just the shave. But have some soaps coming. A couple due to my bingo prize from the attractive and even more generous @OpusX. And a few accidentally from a Facebook post because I had gotten into the buying mood. These actions have sealed my idea for the next bingo game...
