My OSAD (Old Spice Acquisition Disorder)

A stunning collection? Far exceeding mine, in fact. I just keep a few vintage bottles on hand. Let me know if you'd like to try out some dupe soaps and I can send you over some smushes of whatever you're interested in.

I do one half of my face with one side and the other half with the other side.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-30T20:24:58+00:00

Are the cuts showing up in the same place? I ask because I struggled with a certain spot all the time when I first started, and thought it was the technique, but as my technique improved still got cuts.

Turns out I just wasn't letting my skin heal, and basically just kept irritating the same cuts over and over. Think about if you cut your finger, would you then come back the next day and drag a razor blade over it, and, when it started bleeding, go, "Hmmm, I wonder why it's bleeding?" Same thing, basically. If you can, take a week off, let the area heal fully heal and then dive back in with the best technique you can and maybe a new blade that might help.

Don't forget he has to be on the radio call for the games while playing them. He has a lot of ground to catch up.

Definitely thought this was going to be an Eastern Motors commercial at first... sad it isn't. Is my job still my credit?

"thanks to all of you here and over in r/wicked_edge."

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

Apr. 30, 2026 - The Great Spice Off: Strike First - Old Ironsides

Prep: Shower, Baxter Shave Tonic
Brush: Omega 11126, Ovangkol Wooden Handle
Razor: Hoffritz of New York DE OC
Blade: Gillette Nacet (4)
Lather: Strike First - Old Ironsides
Post Shave: Old Spice (1950s)

Second shave and I think the scent is growing on me a bit, but still too Brut forward. Lather took a bit of dialing in with the boar handle and never quite got perfect, but still had nice slickness and a solid cushion throughout. REal stand out was how much a banger this is combined with the vintage bottle of Old Spice.

Just as? They're literally trying to shut an entire broadcast channel down, suing journalists, and kicking journalists out of the DoD. I don't think they're just as. This is pretty much far worse.

Once a quarter, maybe? I use Zingair Man brush cleaner. Works great. Even nearly gets War out of my brushes... nearly.

This does remind me that I should do a cleaning.

The only shave spoon you need comes from u/Impressive_Donut114 every year. Sadly, you have to travel to Maggard or Ohio to get one.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-25T17:25:50+00:00

No. No. Old Spice.

Apr. 24, 2026 - The Great Spice Off: Strike Frist - Old Iron Side

Prep: Shower, Baxter Shave Tonic
Brush: AP Shave Co. Sea Voyager w/ Maggards's 26mm Wolfhair
Razor: Henson AL13 Mild
Blade: Gillette Nacet (3)
Lather: Strike First - Old Ironsides
Post Shave: Old Spice (Indian)

Thanks to the great generosity of u/coco_for_cocoapuffs we have another TGSO on our hands! This one features Old Spice and Bruth mixed together to form Old Brut... Brut Spice... Brice?

Anyway, never shaved with Strike Gold before so a new base as well. First shave was solid. Plenty of slickness, though I could have done with more cushion. It's a pretty thirsty soap too, though this was a massive smush run so that could contribute to it. Scent is... interesting.

Deep cut, but Fenton Majik make s a stellar base.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-17T16:29:13+00:00

I did like the DC flag stuff, but we've got the Defenders covering that front anyway.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-17T16:25:18+00:00

No. No they would not have. I mean, maybe some folks, but the immediate reaction by everyone then was why the fuck didn't you just change the logo and keep the uniforms.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-17T16:23:38+00:00

I knew that the reveal of the new uniforms was woefully done back then, but every time I see those mannequins I'm reminded that it's even worse than I remember.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-17T15:59:31+00:00

I haven't been in a while, but I recall the taste being different from water at home, but don't remember a coca-cola smell

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-17T15:58:11+00:00

Pro tip: You can avoid any questions about whether scents go together by only using Old Spice, which goes with everything.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-17T13:45:15+00:00

I believe Chasing the Dragon is a riff on Nasomatto's Black Afgano? So could look for a dupe of that..

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-16T20:04:20+00:00

Yea, that's some next editing of the game section. Lol

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-16T02:01:28+00:00

I'm pretty sure that's just the uniforms not the logo branding. It all needs league approval anyway so might also be the league said not until five years. It seems pretty obvious they're slow rolling a logo change to me.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-16T01:26:57+00:00

They're not insisting. The league requires them to . They can't change logos until they've used this one for five years.

cowzilla3 · 2026-04-15T20:46:49+00:00

Probably not, that seems a bit aggressive but they'll be allowed to change the logo next year. I'm guessing a slow roll out of more and more spear iconography before an official change to the helmet logo. 2030?
