The Dreaded 2020 TSC "S Word" Thread

[Aaron]

Last year I joined a yearly one, and quit in disgust when the rules nazis decided someone was out because he bought a picture of a razor to hang in his bathroom...

...while the guy who bought a copper lather bowl after breaking his ceramic bowl was allowed to stay in. Yeah, it gets chippy between the lax and the strict, but that makes for some entertaining reading. I like how chill the "S" is here. In, out, start over after failing, whatever.

start over after failing

This is my downfall every time.......

@Somnos , Sorry if my post came across as judgemental or in poor taste, it truely was not meant that way. i have gone through various stages of the hobby myself and I am certainly not judging others. My apologies to you and anyone else that i may have offended with my post. It was my attempt at humor and was not meant to be taken seriously.

@Fenster sorry it took so long to get back to this thread and my absence of response is no way indicative of my disapproval of your comments. I understand it was a comment made in jest, no biggie. Please don’t take my comments as a scolding or condemnation of any kind. I have tried the “S” thing in the past and am quite happy that I am still in. I love this hobby and have so much to enjoy in it...principally the camaraderie found here. Stay safe brother and enjoy the shaves!

I agree 100%, all good here.

So, once more I'm going to try this . No shave purchases until I use up my new La Toja stick, with the exception of a knot for a Graydog handle.

Best of luck to you!

This is going to be harder than I thought. Last night I nearly spent $43 on samples of every SV scent before I came to my senses.

I keep putting the Dark Vetiver Soap/Splash in my cart before then coming to my senses

Hey, I almost made it a whole month!

 

[Kevdogg329]

Guess all failed this?

Failure is such a strong word...

Maybe not failure so much as constantly going in and out of hibernation?

 

[Kevdogg329]

I admire all you who can do this. I've never completed an "S" word, be it yearly, quarterly or monthly. I guess something deep in my psyche sabotages me, lol.
Last year I joined a yearly one, and quit in disgust when the rules nazis decided someone was out because he bought a picture of a razor to hang in his bathroom. I think that's kind of taking things to the extreme.

I remember that.

They can be fun with the right group and with good banter back and forth. I know that the one year with the CEC was great

We are still here Kev..... waiting, planes fueled artillery ready, shaving products loaded on trucks waiting to turn those “S’s” into BWOAC’s (Buyers Without A Care).
