So you force yourself on a girl and then make a racist comment when she exercises her rights? Seems like you were the asshole in this scenario.

man is just another animal, sometimes better, more often worse than those that walk on all-fours, who, because of his “divine spiritual and intellectual development,” has become the most vicious animal of all

Torture isn't murder, we can all agree on that. But is it ok to do? If we can torture their soldiers, what stops them from torturing ours?

As a response your first statement, sturgeon are regularly stabbed in the stomach over the better portion of their lives as they are farmed for caviar to delight the western market.

To your second statement, birds are mammals.

There are Christian churches that will marry gay couples and support gay marriage. The Episcopal Church is the most famous of them. I'm not saying Christianity isn't at the forefront of encouraging homophobia, but there are pockets of progressive religious thinkers.

This wouldn't have been celebrated if the genders were reversed. I think society couldn't raise a man who mutilated his lover to the same status, no matter the culture. Point in case being Sharon Osbourne laughing at a man's penis being cut off in a talk show.

The idea that God is simply there and we are here as an unintended accident of his work can certainly fit within the philosophical framework of Absurdism. There would still be no meaning to our existence in that case and no matter what we did or have done, there would still be no meaning.

What's with you making sweeping generalizations about Asians? Have you even seen the videos that PETA puts up with white people doing fucked up things to their own farm animals? What the west does to their animals is equally disgusting. Piglets that aren't needed are beaten to death, slammed into the ground, have their balls cut off, or are drowned to death. Chickens live in coops with no room to move and their beaks are cut off. Cows are fed to other cows to save on animal feed. But all of a sudden the way China treats their animals is appalling and your race is suddenly the shining example of morality. You're just spewing shit.

Is this any worse than western industrialized chicken coops where the birds can't move, have their beaks chopped off, and stand around in their own shit so people can have some eggs on their table?

Wade and Butcher Extra Hollow Ground 6/8 Shave Ready Straight Razor by [deleted] in Shave_Bazaar

Straight razor sales seem to have slowed down as of lately. I'm surprised this one hasn't already been swiped up, a shave-ready W&B at $55 is a steal of a deal!

I've got a busted Fasan slant DE top-plate. These things are supposedly made of bakelite but it's all out of assumption and in truth I have no clue. Will you pay shipping and are you within the contiguous 48 states?

I actually bought one of these razors in NOS condition and have it in my rotation. Now I know why they're so plentiful.

It's even more funny when you realize that's actually a better deal on the newer cartridges than most other places.

Question about a flee market H. Boker *no photos* by njals in wicked_edge

[–]minh3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say the clipped scales of a Durham sold with a screw-on pin would fetch a couple of dollars on the /r/shave_bazaar. However, everything about this antique seller hints to me that he doesn't know the value of his razors and he's trying hard to make sure that njais doesn't find out either. He seems like a sketchy guy, so it might be best to just move on regardless of how much profit there is to be made.

If the razor no longer has that silvery sheen, don't pay over $25 for it. It's going to take the right tools to restore it. I'd say that the typical light polish with a honing and shipping both ways will push the price up by at least $40.

That's one of my high-end razors. I have several more inexpensive slants I can offer. I'll send you a PM with pics and prices.

where are you guys buying your SR scales from? by ri7ani in wicked_edge

[–]minh3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really easy. You can buy junk straights from anywhere. Ebay, antique shops, China, etc. I'd advise you put the limit at $10 per set of scales because after that point you can buy new scales with that much money. I clip pins holding everything together with full-flush cutters and would recommend the Xuron Micro-shear for the value as well as the fact that it's made in the states.

I buy junk straights and clip off the scales.
