God's gift to men....

How many "best shaves", "better shaves" and "even better than before shaves" do they thing a man need? I mean, if the advertizing is correct, I donæt think I'll ever need to shave again, becasue thi new razor will take care of the ordeal once and for all!

Well, after getting this, it's all I need.

Call me crazy, but I don't want anything that vibrates near my face. And really, haven't they done enough with razors? Every 6 months they somehow shoe-horn in another freakin' blade to give you "the closest shave EVER!" Really? Didn't you give me the closest shave ever 6 months ago with 4 blades? Or a year ago with 3? I was hoodwinked again, Mr. Gillette, you rascal. Is the 5th blade burrowing under my skin to attack whiskers at the source? Are they attaching lasers to them to blast the hair cells before they even sprout? And when those 5 blades dull after 3 uses (trust me, they will), I'll look like a man that hired a drunken monkey with a dull, rusty butter-knife to do the task. Not to mention that I'll need to take out a 2nd mortage on my house to buy replacement blades. Oh, and now the razor vibrates? Super. Since I'm already running 5 razor-sharp blades past my jugular, let's make it shake in my grasp, for an extra challenge. Perhaps I'll do this after my morning pot of coffee, when I'm especially jittery.

God's gift to men? Hardly. That title should only be bestowed on something that so truly deserves it. Internet porn.

Well, since this came out 4 years ago, I guess the one you must be speaking of, i never needed.

That's not what I heard

Yeah, I knew you'd see the error of your first statement....

My above rant was from 4 years ago. I'm just re-posting from another board. I recently got some plutonium from some Lybians I met at the mall and got my flux capacetor fluxing again. After that, it was just a matter of getting up to 88 miles per hour.

That was your DeLorean? My bad.

Me too!!

Instead, it's all about crushing disappointment.

I followed them up until Mach 3, and then stopped there. That's a great razor; it's smooth, powerful, and durable (I sound like I'm working for them). After that, more blades are unnecessary. There was an hilarious skit on Mad TV ages ago where they did a mock razor commercial where the razor had like 20 blades! Sometimes I wonder where they'll draw the line. Eventually, it'll just be a mini razor conveyer belt!

I'll never trust an electric razor, though. My face is my livelihood. Everything I own I owe to this face. It's my allure, my....my twinkle!

Good on ya mate.

I got the Gillete Fusion:

Four blades and an extra on the back for precision shaving! I didn't buy this to keep up with all the other inventions (I believe it's getting rediculous myself), hell, I didn't buy it at all. I got the thing for free with a replacement cartridge in the mail. So all I have to do is buy the cartridges and one will last me for months because I shave maybe 2-3 times a week if that. I will say however that the precison blade does help to shave around my gotee (but I would have still been happy with my good ole Mach 3-which I also got for free in the mail ).

While I cannot believe we are trading grooming ideas on this board I use this one as well exactly for same reason DB... Free = good plus i dont like the idea of a battery chraged anything (or electric for that matter) anywhere near water. The fusion is a nice razor. It does a nice job. The most important thing is it is true to advertising - it gets me all the babes!!!

Get's you the babes? Man, it don't even give me Babe the pig. I even tried Axe and I still can't get chicks to jump all over me at the mall. I must be doing something wrong. Maybe I should try showering as well, and stop wearing my "No Fat Chicks" t-shirt with the BBQ stains.

...I shower once a month and they're speghetti stains.

It must be the showering Db cause I cant go outside without being bombarded with babes trying to get me... My wife is a little bit annoyed at times with their behavior but it is a major ego boost for her to be married to one of the most popular guys in the world!!

Damn, I was hoping this thread wopuld have a bunch of pictures of hot women. Thank's for nothing.

Wonder when the new, improved, better shaving, get-you-laid-for-sure razor with FIVE blades will be coming along. Cause, you know, you've NEVER had a great shave until FIVE blades come ripping across your face. It will be like your face goes back to the condition it was in when you were born!

I find the cheaper razors rip my face off.

And since you guys have been so patient, here is the real god's gift.

Haha, I got a free Gillette Fusion in the mail today. Said it was an 18th Birthday gift from your friends at Gillette. I'm scared.

I got the Gillette Venus Breeze.
