Reasons why I mix my coffee with whiskey, my list of bodies I have buried in the woods, and other thoughts while shaving

MacDuffs Soap Company Cream Soda Puck

That's like the kids ordering Shirley Temples

Plus Jack and I may be upgrading his PC.

Is this one of those situations where we’re doing things “for the kids” but it’s really so dad gets a banging gaming computer to dominate the noobs?

Great looking shaves Brian. What app are you using now?

Thanks Clint - Started using Shave Den - switched from the app Shave Buddy - both are good but I like the UI better with Shave Den

ok, quick holiday shave and post to get into a festive mood…what can I say - both Stirling and Ginger’s Garden knocked it out of the park.

work has been busy today so I haven’t been able to check posts for Bingo - I’m just going to assume that my friend @GearNoir did not heed my recommendations to give me an easy win. That’s going to put him on the “festivus list”

“Festivus list”

FTFY. It is a proper noun, after all! I'm hoping it becomes a federal holiday soon.

i cannot tell a lie - my choice of aftershave with a ton of synthetic menthol may not have been the wisest choice on a cold day

Soap: Crowne & Crane Barista Puck
Aftershave: Zingari Man Unscented Aftershave

Additional Care: Maison Margiela Coffee Break EdT

Cup O’ Joe in hand, Cup O’ Joe in shave. This is a homage of Maison Margiela coffee break - what I like about this is this is basically a Barbershop scent, it’s got a nice lavender in it, but also gives you that milk and sugar in your coffee feel.

Speaking of coffee - I think I’m getting @NurseDave a Bripe - so he can enjoy a nice coffee while out in his deck smoking a pipe. A little nirvana for him - he deserves it don’t you know. Plus I always wanted to know who would spend $80 on or what amounts to an espresso shot - I have to support those entrepreneurs

Have a great day!

The problem with a Bripe in California would be the excess greenhouse emissions caused by the crack torch needed to heat it up. If one of neighbors see him use that torch with something other than an illegal narcotic, he will be heading for a solitary lockup where real criminals go for overnight stays.

While I appreciate the thought, your money will be much better spent on sending that soap and scent. I had no idea that there was a coffee break EdT!!!

Happy Friday Chris. It is midking - I’d say about 6-8 hours,
