An open letter to bearded hipsters
You have your mountain man scruff, but you maintain it. You groom it. With products. A quick google search of “beard grooming products” turns up literally thousands of articles explaining how to have the most lustrous beard possible. Take this one from Philadelphia Magazine, where they tested TWENTY DIFFERENT VARIETIES of beard oil. The result of this intrepid testing? “I’m talking softer, more manageable whiskers that hold their shape better and smell nice, besides. Doesn’t sound so bad put that way, does it?” Yes. Yes it does, you GIANT PUSSY. Am I reading “Cosmo”? What the fuck is going on here? Betty White has bigger balls than you.« The Nicki Daniels Interview

Yep, I better get me one of those disposable razors with FIVE blades...

I'm partial to a four blade razor, but only because I can get everything in one pass.
As to pretty beards, I think it's a plot by fags to piss off Duck Dynasty fans.

Anything with more than one sharp edge gets horribly and permanently clogged around these parts. I use what's called a safety razor (1 double edged blade) and am considering a straight razor for the few times a year I have to *clean up the place*, as it were. If 4 and 5 blades are good then 100 blades would be even better, no?

meh, hundred blades would be bulky. 99 might work though.
I shave about once a week. I would shave less but I live in south Texas and work outdoors. Beards are uncomfortable to me.

Beards are for bums and nances.

I've used an electric razor for almost 70 years. In the old days, no one gave a hoot how you shaved, only if you shaved and often enough that you didn't look like a bum. Sissificaton was not a factor one way or the other. Lately though I have been fretting about whether using electric is more or less sissified than beard farming.
