I doubt it's just me, maybe it is, but I doubt it. When I shave with my electric razor at work I almost always shave my neck and the sides of my face first, leaving the obligatory goatee, one of which I had for a few years. Then I'll shave my chin, leaving a mustache, which gets shaved off last. Sometimes I'll shave the mustache first, leaving a chin-only goatee.
I think I look good with a goatee, a little hard even, especially with my old goatee which at its longest made me look a little like Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart. Pictures are not currently available :P
I don't think I look so good with a mustache.

Don't you kind of have to keep some type of facial hair being a captain and all? I mean would captain hook still be captain hook if he had that clean baby face? On a side note, imagine shaving with a mach 3 razor and having the power go out mid stroke. That happened to me last week and I am still recovering..
Is the Mach 3 the one that delivers a mild (so to speak) electric shock to your skin as you're shaving, in order to raise the whiskers for an even closer shave?
I was interested in trying one of them, but thought it seemed more of a gimmick than anything else. My blade razor of choice is the triple-bladed Gilette Sensor XL. Man does that thing shave close, and the blades last a while too. You know it's time to change the blade when you cut yourself several times :P Actually, it was time to change it the shave before then :D
Of coourse he'd still be captain hook, he's a captain and has a hook for a hand, ergo "captain hook" not "captain 'babyface' hook" - the beard in this case is irrelevant.
Im working on my devil beard thang, altho i haven't been bothered to shave so the sides or the tache, so it's kinda surrounded by some hobo style.
Those vibrating razors, those mach 3 things freak me out, they make my hand go numb and i can't feel what the hell i'm gutting off my face..
ear anyone?
I still use the old Mach three, so mine doesn't have that pulsating action that "stimulates hair for the closest most comfortable shave ever" haha. It is quite similar to the Gilette 3 blade XL. Something about a straight razor that requires batteries is unsettling to me.
And you are right ross Captain hook would still be known as captain hook but I think we can all agree that captain hook with a beard is the superior choice over the non beard model.
I see you know your razors, your ideas intrique me and i wish to subcribe to your newsletter.
I dont hit the vibrate button, but when i do i get startled, i forget it's there and think i'm being electrocuted.
Do you remember that horrible gillette razor with the bars on it? i think they got one now with 4 blades and "protective bars" - it's ridiculous, the bars are there so you dont cut yourself, in other words to make the razor more blunt... how the fuck does that make sense?? and it catches yer longer chinny hair and plucks it.
You gotta look at captain hook another way; he clearly was neurotic, what with the alligators, young boys and clocks etc.. but there was definately some gay undertones in there, so he's right on the bottom rung of the pirate list.
But that's how I know it's time to change my blade, when I start slicing my face up. I never cut myself with a fresh blade, only one that's a week or two old. I should learn to change my blades before they get that dull, but I never do. "Ouch! Must be time to change the blade. I'll do it when I've finished Ouch! shaving."
Re: the gay Pirate thing. Weren't most pirates gay, and perhaps all sailors of that time? I mean the whole "No women on board, they're bad luck", fascination with cabin boys, keelhauling, etc.
I'm not sure, i mean, they did go ashore alot to hide booty and ironically get booty too. Considering the times however it would be feasible to say alot of them were bisexual, altho that would probably apply more to the crew -
pirates were only out there to swipe stuff off the spanish, it's only when they started to harass the royal navy that they were actually called pirates.
I get the cabin boy ref, but keelhualing? how does being dragged under the ship equate to homo-erotica??
I still haven't shaved.. yarr! (in a non gay tone)
It's all about getting tied up by a bunch of men and them having their way with you...sure, them having their way with you means being dragged under the bottom of the ship, but that's probably just foreplay.
Good point capt, the no women on board thing would have been my first que to say ok I think I will just join the army so I can at least bounce from town to town and stop at the whore houses in between conquests. Being at sea for a year on end with no women is a sure fire equation for circle jerk.
And ross, I saw the same razor on TV the other night and I laughed my ass off. I can't wait until they come out with a razor that has 5 6 or 7 blades; the razor will be capable of shaving the whole side of your face in one swipe and will take your first layer of skin with it(hows that for a close shave). I thought that 3 blades was excessive but the razor was a gift, and my wife would get mad if I didn't use it. If she comes home with a 4 blade razor we are going to have a nice long talk about marketing and the natural human tendency to be gullible.
Well pirates werent typically at sea for all that long, they did make fairly regular stops from what i know, the did even have their own island in the carribean which was full of whores an such, so im gonna go with them mostly being bi-curious.
john, i think yer taking the bondage thing a little bit too far, does liz read these comments?
wolfgang - yeah i told you it was ridiculous the next one will prolly be the size of a cheese grater, or infact some kind of modified cheese grater.
3 grown men sitting round talking about gay pirates and razors.. if this somehow drags over into footwear and accesories, we should all assume secret identities or perhaps hunt a wild boar for dinner in case our wives think we've gone "funny"
but it sure makes for great entertainment. :)
