When I went to the drug store the other day, I saw that they now have straight razors out with 5 BLADES. Huh? Is this a joke? The refills are $17.00 for 4 cartridges. Is it only a matter of time before razor heads are the size of a brick with maybe 20 or 50 blades on them? Then what?

Yeah, but have you seen the commercials for those things? Star Wars had fewer special effects. With the marketing going into those razors, it's no wonder they cost so much.
I bought an electric razor about eight years ago and haven't touched a blade (Or bought shaving supplies) since.

Haven't had a razor of any kind touch my face in 35 years.
I've saved a ton of money on blades & shave cream though I have to buy a new hedge trimmer every 3 or 4 years.

Now I know why they call you "Bear."
I usually have a short beard. My real beard actually resembles my little cartoon picture below.
The few times I have gone the "full beard" route, it grows so fast and so high up I still have to trim it daily or else I look like a werewolf after three days. I can shave my entire beard off on Friday, and by Monday, I have to start shaping it.
I get noon-thirty shadow.

straight razor for me...it's a Sabatier, about 75 years old...nothing like one if you know how to shave with it, dangerous if you don't....

Pi, I shaved my back last week and got Mr. Kraft to make a mattress out of the clippings. Aren't I a catch?
