Lather Games 2024 Day 2: Ahoy Lather Games!
Use of Theme: Ahoy, Lather Games!
It’s an Old Spice-y day in the Hamptons, or the Cape, or maybe Sagaponack Pond…wherever u/Priusaurus is dropping anchor these days.
Leading off today’s shave, Hoffman’s Burn the Ships. It’s certainly not the best of the best and maybe relies on FOMO marketing tactics, but it is a respectable representation of Old Spice. Keeping the dream alive, the champion Barrister and Mann Spice aftershave, a noticeably lighter and powdery, but very faithful interpretation of the Spice. Finishing the trifecta is Old Spice Classic EdC. It’s Old Spice, it’s Classic. It’s as good as it can be, not having sniffed the Shelton in many years.
Daily Challenge: Paleontology Day
Priusaurus
(To the tune: Clementine)
Priusaurus, Priusaurus,
Priusaurus what a guy
He’s a true-blue, coastal e-lite
Never made his lathers dry
Spends his summers in a sail boat
Frittering in Buzzards Bay
Using crystal like it’s plastic
Munching on his Osetra-y
Interrupted water polo
Tried his hand at Lather Games
Out of nowhere he’s the winner
His life’s never been the same
In a dinghy leaking water
Floating in the Vineyard Sound,
Searching for a Smythe-y captain
Never more he will be found
Judging lather, judging lather
Is where you’ll find him this fine day
Maybe if you’re on his good side
He will give you points today
