So after you are rushed to the hospital due to severe blood loss and irreparable knick-caused skin deformation you consider forking out a little more dough and graduating to a middle range razor. Nothing fancy just something that's not going to render you unconscious, on the floor of what used to be your shower but now looks like something out of CSI. Three-blades, a nice aloe vera conditioning strip, a little more grip on the handle, maybe a pivoting head if they're on sale. You're thinking six or seven bucks, a buck or a buck - twenty five a razer.
WRONG my dear friend ! Well wrong if your shaving your legs and not your face (and by that I mean your a girl not a man, I don't really want to know what you intend to shave.. rhetorical thought..). So there I was, standing in the aisle of shoppers drug mart dumb founded as to why our fore-mothers and their fore-mothers spent all that time and effort lobbying government and burning perfectly good bras just so we can, in 2010, pay 13 dollars for the exact same razors that the guys are paying 7 or 8 dollars for ! Fuck you Shoppers Drug Mart WE PAY YOUR BILLS ! In highschool I spent my entire measly paycheck in your store and half the guys i know buy one bottle of three dollar shampoo a month and use it as shampoo, body wash, hand soap, shaving gel, dish soap, car soap, floor cleaner, spaghetti sauce etc.etccc There is not a single structural or cost difference between the two products so WTF !?!
I mean after all I'm sure the Guatemalan six year old who made it gets paid the same whether the handle is purple and smells like tahiti-treat or its black and looks like something out of star trek.
So as much as I miss the cutesy little lime green, patterned, scented symbol of womens repression that used to be in my shower.. now there ain't nothin but solid, black titanium man blades !
Revolt Revolt Revolt !
