"Contains: Razor Blade. Not intended for Children."

[flvegan]

Found on the side of the box of the free Gillette Fusion umpteen blade razor I got in the mail today. That they have to tell folks this (even for liability purposes) amazes me.

5 blades on the front, 1 on the back ("Precision Trimer Blade"). I'm shaving in style now!

And now...they dance...

1. the Fusion scares me.

i like my Sensor...2 blades, less chance of carving up my neck meat.

[seemunkee]

9. Can't find the blades for them around here anymore

My son said the same thing.

[sakabatou]

2. Like McDonald's cofee: "CAUTION: HOT!"

[Crazy Dave]

3. It's a good shave

But a pack of replacement blades runs around $25 for about five refills. Mrs. DTW picks them up for me so I'm not 100% sure.

[flvegan]

5. Wait...you mean I WON'T get free refills in the mail? 7-11 gives free refills.

Gillette should too.

[Crazy Dave]

20. Just like the pusher man

At least that's what they always told us in grade school to scare us into not using drugs. "The pusher will give you your drugs for free, get you hooked, then you'll have to steal to support your habit".

What a bunch of fairy tale bullshit. In the 20 plus years that I used and sold drugs, nobody ever gave away drugs for free.

4. I'm not upgrading until they fit 20 blades on my razor!

12. Remember this story from the Onion?

http://www.theonion.com/content/node/33930?issue=4228&special=2004

"Fuck Everything, We're Doing Five Blades"

[mainegreen]

16. Yup! Sad how often the onion gets things right!

[petronius]

6. That's not the battery powered one, is it?

This stuff is getting way out of hand; I saw a commercial last night (and I'm pretty sure it wasn't a drunken hallucination) for a toothbrush with an "onboard computer" to provide 'optimum brushing control.' :wtf:

[AlCzervik]

7. we got one of those for free as well, i'm scared to use it.

[asthmaticeog]

8. That looks like a good razor, but

I'm holding off on any new grooming purchases until they put these out.



The cartidges are $30, but you can do your whole face in one swipe.

On edit: @mainegreen - holy shit, GMTA!

[mainegreen]

11. Yup, 20 blades. I'm holding out for that puppy!

[miss_american_pie]

10. Yes, but why did they send me one?

:shrug:

[peekaloo]

13. For a moment I thought Irwin Mainway was back in the kids toy business.

:silly:

[bleedingheart]

17. don't you wish...there are a few folks I would like to buy "Bag of Glass" for

[Gormy Cuss]

14. Crap. Now I have to rethink my Christmas list.

:P

IBTR
yes that's what I meant....in before the Rabrrrrrr

[Deja Q]

15. And look at the pretty colors!!! Children would love to play with them...

It's a razor. Make it black, gunmetal gray, and add a dark red if they really wanted to get creative. :eyes:

[Dangerously Amused]

18. My pink vibrating razor

...thinks your five-blade package is hot.





Wanna come over and shave?

[flvegan]

19. !

You are sooo...wrong. That was just...scandalous!

[Dangerously Amused]

21. I know. :D
