It’s no secret that Stirling was the first serious place I shopped online thanks to the algorithm. But I soon discovered Maggard, where all my stuff for today’s shave came from and probably where I’ve spent most of my shaving dollars. And, turning from bragging to the real reason this day exists, I owe it to Maggard’s for inspiration. Having never hosted a wet shavers meetup, the cancellation of the Maggard Meetup was the driving force behind the Ohio Wet Shavers Meetup, which will be happening for the fourth year come September 14. It’s one thing to lurk around with Internet randos, but it’s a totally different thing to actually get together in person just like we Gen Xers have always done.
Daily Challenge: Mad Braggard
Alright, which one of you fuckers got an insider tip and placed this order with Maggard Razors just so you could swing your gonads around in the sub today?
Was it u/Priusaurus? Perhaps, but there are better odds it was the one and only u/chronnoisseur420. How nice it was to dedicate his ~~National Donut Day~~ Vetiver day shave to my honor. How nicely he went about, feeding me lines while shoving that donut into his cake hole. You didn’t choke on it, but I hope it at least gave you a case of the shits.
As for my own orders from Maggard Razors, or anywhere else for that matter, I’ve never spent over $100 on a single order that I can even recall. Call it pragmatism on that end, I suppose, but I can’t and won’t go back into my order history and total up how much I’ve spent in five years, either. Just know it’s way more than Mrs_D knows (or admits to knowing) that I spent.
Have great shave and be kind to one another.
Edit: formatting, typos StIrling. I really need to quit using this stupid phone to do computer shit.
