Excellent shave. The days are getting longer, and I’m getting into the mood for summery scents.
I don’t know what I did differently with the TI, but I get a buttery smooth shave that I just don’t get with the Parker.
Have a good evening!

Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night

So, the 🦣 absolutely crushed the 🐮 yesterday, there are no two ways about it. Surprising? No. Unfair? Also no. Just happens to be the perfect metaphor for the first round of this March Madness: The big animal mauls the small animal. The law of the jungle.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
When and if you fight the odds long enough, you lose and if you’re winning, you just haven’t lost yet. There is nothing that encapsulates this inevitably and finality better than the concept of entropy. But there should have been someone defying the odds, at least temporarily, no? I’m hoping for some upsets in the next round, where the competitors will be generally more closely matched.
This soap’s name isn’t just fitting the outcome of this first bracket brilliantly, it’s also a wonderful scent. It’s in the ballpark of Cerberus, but with the sweetness turned to eleven. (And a dose of cough syrup which I can’t unsmell since u/VisceralWatch pointed it out).

As a great fan of cough syrup (and root beer, that’s just the same) I should maybe give it a try 😁

Definitely. I unreservedly recommend it. Just a wonderful scent. You just need to like sweet

Excellent write-up. We’ve got Dylan Thomas, the law of the jungle and, of course, entropy. Perfect, IMO!
