July 12, 2023 – Yulay, of the Gods

  • Brush: MRed 26 mm Badger
  • Razor: Focus Tritok R63 Slant
  • Blade: Personna Platinum Chrome (1)
  • Preshave: Baxter Shave Tonic
  • Lather: Van Yulay -Spicy Man
  • Post Shave: Old Spice – European

First, this is the best of the best movie quotes and I say it all the time. I think we all forget how truly enjoyable and good Despicable Me was after the memification of the Minions and their eventual overtaking of that franchise. But that first movie was a geniune, heartfelt, and funny film. Part of that was the fact that while the supervillain storyline was outlandish the three girls were not and that’s epitomized the amusement park scene this quote is from. OK, film critic hat off now.

I chose this soap because as I was digging through my bin of Old Spice dupes this was the first one that I hit that had coconut in the first three ingredients. I’m pretty sure I have four or five more that would qualify but given the ease with which I could find one in my bin I didn’t look any harder. Clearly, I am putting as much effort into these games as the likes of u/OnionMiasma, u/tsrblke, u/pridetwo or any of the other top contenders are. I expect to be awarded with a coveted judge’s weekly post point in no time.

Though, now that I look at the back label while writing this I’m realizing that the third ingredient is not either “Coconut Oil or Potassium Cocoate” but instead “Coconut Fatty Acids.” I honestly just grabbed it and saw the word coconut in the first three ingredients. I’m pretty sure that Coconut Fatty Acids are the same thing as those other things but knowing how truly important the exact wording of the rules are and never wanting to Air Bud Rule anything ever again I believe I have yet again managed to screw up getting points! I feel like I’m cursed for some reason... but only the judges can decide if I have failed.

Speaking of being cursed, this soap is not of the gods, especially when you face lather it and you haven’t face lathered since sometime around your second ever wetshave three-ish years ago. Then, for some reason, you choose a slant razor you suck at using. Not… not my best day, friends. Not at all.
