Slice and Dice

So PreZ and I are watching tv, some ad for a new Gillette razor, now with a whopping 5 blades.

Me: Soon you'll whip open the box and there'll be this huge block of blades on a stick.
PreZ: Soon there won't be any difference between a razor and a cheese grater.




Seriously. First it was a single razor, then the double and triple blades. Last year or so the new gimmick was 4 blades, now 5? Where does the insanity end?

I think the last 4 blade, also vibrates.

Where does it end? Nair, for men.

Well first they'll increase to a giant chainsaw of blades, and then all the blades will be consolidated into just one blade, and it'll look like this revolutionary new bit of technology.



OVER 50 blades all in one! Imagine that!

Hahaha. Funny you should post that, because a single blade was already my logical extreme too... after a gazillion razorblades that don't cut it, next you'd need the One True Blade that replaces them all ;)

I found this picture of you (http://www.drunkrockers.com/DROP_DEAD_FESTIVAL_NYC_OCT_29_05_P_/DROPDEADFESTIVALOCTOBER29t%20version%201/DROP_DEAD_FESTIVAL_NYC_OCT_29_05_089_P_.html) by the way.

And I also noticed that PreZ, Amber, Patrick and I were on some of the Bat's Day pictures when we were there in 2004: here (http://www.drunkrockers.com/BATS_DAY_AUGUST_29_04/BATSDAYAUGUST29th2004PAGE2/BATS_DAY_AUGUST_29_04_136_P_.html), here (http://www.drunkrockers.com/BATS_DAY_AUGUST_29_04/BATSDAYAUGUST29th2004PAGE4/BATS_DAY_AUGUST_29_04_320_P_.html) and here (http://www.drunkrockers.com/BATS_DAY_AUGUST_29_04/BATSDAYAUGUST29th2004PAGE4/BATS_DAY_AUGUST_29_04_321_P_.html)

I want to go to Bat's Day again next year (2008, we won't be able to swing it this year with a planned trip to AU).

It will end when someone nicks an artery in her leg/his neck, then someone will sue for "negligent and unnecessary blade usage," there will be a government inquest, protests, tearful stories of razor burn on the evening news, before they finally come out with the new, highly scientific, single edged, "safety" straight razor. :p
