I hope you don't need her for anything time sensitive today, whatever her motivation.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Also, I should learn how to shave properly, because I should want girls to like me.

According to Kyan, not very many straight guys know how to do this. The key is product (shaving cream or gel AND a moisturizer afterwards) and shaving WITH the grain.

Hey. New board.

Hmm. I'm not sure what the grain of my whiskers is. I do use both shaving gel and a post-shave moisturizer.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

According to Kyan, not very many straight guys know how to do this. The key is product (shaving cream or gel AND a moisturizer afterwards) and shaving WITH the grain.

First I shave with the grain, then I shave against the grain. That results in a very close shave.

I don't do the moisturizer afterwards, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Also, apply product from the back.

Librarian Warlord

Good morning, Bitches! The book-free library feeds into one of my librarian nightmares that I've been having -- homogenous collections. While we're still buying more books than we were, say, 10 years ago when I started as a librarian, we're also buying these huge, expensive databases of material that has been digitized. It's material we already own in paper form. To afford the last 100K database, we cancelled copies of many serials for which we were the only library source west of the Mississippi. To give up the uniqueness of our collections and all end up with the same expensive databases makes me cry a little inside.

P-C, congratulations on a good conversation with your Mother. Remember it is possible.

Libkitty! Nice hair!

You mean all those girls she doesn't want you to have anything to do with?

Shaving only with the grain is guarantees a perfectly even half-shave, and that's about it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The key is product (shaving cream or gel AND a moisturizer afterwards) and shaving WITH the grain.

I go with the grain and then against the grain, like tommyrot, using shaving cream during and aftershave...after. It's really hard to get some of those stray hairs on the neck, though.

Also, apply product from the back.

I don't understand. The back of what?

You mean all those girls she doesn't want you to have anything to do with?

Heh, yeah. Though I think she mostly means any girls she shows me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

DH is capable of going on at great length abotu proper shaving technique. As I recall, he approved of kyan's instruction on the whole, but quibbled about something or other. I fear I didn't pay as much attention as I might have. He has a thick and fast growing beard, he's put some thought and experimentation into shaving. I don't think he's settled on his OTProduct yet.

Grr. Guy just came by and asked me for a phone number. Instead of asking me to write it down, or asking for scratch paper (of which I have bunches) he reached across my desk and took one of the last three 'While you were out" sheets I have left. We've never figured out how to get more of these. Dammit.
