Nim agreed with the verdict, but turned his nose up in disdain at 'Queer Eye,' which, like me, I suspect he has never seen but judges based on its popularity.
Nim also went on to say, "And let me give you this additional advice: get a brush and shaving soap."
I looked at him funny.
"Instead of shaving cream," he said.
I looked at him funny.
"You seriously have never peeked in my medicine cabinet?" I asked.
"Glad to see you took my advice, then," he said.
"Unfortunately, that's the best advice you've ever given me."
Since I am terrible at shaving and clearly should dispose of disposables, it is quite clear that I need a Case XX straight razor, that way I can one day inadvertently remove my nose instead of just some pesky stubble...and the skin that keeps my flesh on the inside of my body. But I was really hoping for something with a mother-of-pearl handle, and the Case XX straight razor comes with an imitation tortoise shell handle. Yes, nothing says class like imitation tortoise shell. If I cut off my nose, I want it to be cut off with something better than an imitation-tortoise-shell-handled straight razor, whether the blade is from Solingen, Germany, or not--which just screams Made with Pride in the U.S.A., doesn't it?
There is an option other than imitation tortoise shell: but just what is chestnut bone, anyway?
