Most stores sell them which means there is a demand, which stuns me. The things are the very definition of "you get what you pay for"

Pledges, without shaving cream or water.

My high school did. If you weren't clean shaven, you'd have better been ready to butcher your face.

My high school football coach kept a stock of them. If you showed up game day unshaven then he handed you a razor.

If your hair was long enough to hang out of your helmet then he would also take scissors to your hair.

It only took once to get his point across.

I use them to shave your wife's lady parts.

She purrs like a kitten.

Is this for real? I guess I never thought about it too much since half the guys on my HS team had a cheesy goatee or sparse beard. And we had a big Samoan guy on the OL with long hair.

can attest, they do! But they do not buy that cheap shaving cream. That would be a waste of money when you have perfectly good water running in the sink with liquid soap right there to use.

I used one the other day. I don't have much facial hair and it still tore me the frick up.

First person I saw who knew me said, "what the frick happened to you face?"

Looked like I had a pretty bad sunburn. My face was red as hell and burned like no other.

I used one last week on a 3 day growth. Gave me a decent shave, that was just using water and no soap or shave cream too!

I can use any razor to shave my face. I shave every day with cheap razors with no problems.

I buy a pack every now and them so that I can keep a razor in my car's glove box, in my desk at work, and so on for those times where I just happen to glance in a mirror and realize that I missed a small patch.

not true at all. my bear hair tears up cheap and or expensive razors all the same. so it is mor efficient to buy the cheapest to clean you the beard rather than wasting money on those expensive ones.

I do.

Easier to clean clogs out of single blade than the god damn 27 blade abominations they have now.

One stroke and I have to throw the damn things away because nothing is getting the hair out of those things.
