  • Brush: Grey Chubby - Zenith B37
  • Razor: Micromatic Open Comb
  • Blade: GEM - PTFE Coated Stainless Steel (16)
  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Z - Soap

  • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Z - Aftershave

I've been told that some of you people spend upwards of 25 minutes just building lather. You're telling me that face-lathering doesn't suck, but you'll spend the better part of an hour to attempt to produce a paltry reproduction of what takes maybe 12 seconds in my suribachi. Okay.

I am nothing if not fair, so I decided to take your recommendation. I stood there, pondering the nothingness of ~~existence~~ this soap's scent, doing nothing but play mix-the-batter upon my face, my eyes glazed over, after which I looked up and was shocked, in near disbelief of what I found—that I had wasted half an hour.

Now already late, I finished the shave and rushed to work, where I was promptly fired for my lateness and sent back out the door. In despair, I made my way back homeward, where I was once again shocked and in near disbelief, finding my wife surrounded by four men, all partially dressed in Good Humor uniforms and playing mix-the-batter upon her face, her eyes glazed over.

I got to keep the ice cream, so I got that going for me, which is nice. And it's all thanks to the boon to shaving that is the face-lather.
