June 02, 2024 – LG24 Day 2 - Ahoy, Lather Games!

Daily Theme & Relevant Post/Frag: In u/cowzilla3's TGSO™ series of reviews, Cowzilla states that "opening it up and taking a whiff would give anyone a hit to the nostrils of vintage Old Spice for sure". If B&M Spice is Old Spicy enough for our esteemed Old Spice Connoisseur, then it is surely Old Spicy enough to hit today's theme.

I continued the "Spice in the Product Title" thematic link with my post and frag. While no one would consider either Spiced or Spicebomb to be riffs of Old Spice, Spiced's modern take on the classic spice scents and Spicebomb's oriental woody and spicy notes are very complimentary to Spice's vintage scent.

The Shave: After yesterday's Weck-derived bloodbath, my face demanded gentleness so out came the Slim. On low settings the Slim is very smooth, and Omnibus is one of my most protective lathers, so no new blood was let, and the shave was very smooth.

u/Priusaurus Fun Fact: Prior to declaring at the start of last year's LG that "from this point forward, you’re all playing for 2nd place", prior to participating in the Spite Shaveoff with u/MrTangerinesky which ultimately led to the modification of Rule 3.4 to include the following: "You engaged in behavior during your shave that could have caused grievous harm to yourself or others, including but not limited to piloting a moving vehicle while shaving." (i.e. the Tangerinesky Rule), and prior to reminding us yesterday that "If you want to take this trophy from me, you’re gonna have to pry it from my slippery, lathered hands", Prius made an Old Spice commercial! Here's the proof. Yes, even before ~~pontificating~~ enlightening us LG minions that we are not worthy, he was enlightening Old Spice aficionados that Prius is King of the Spices!
