Scubar ripping out all the pipes and light bulb fittings and flogging the lot before the big move. Doesn’t everyone do that? |

hi
I played Player Unknown's Battlegrounds last night. I shot some virtual people, though I think at least one was a 'bot'.
I rode around with my friend in a car. Hanging out the passenger side of my best friend's ride, trying to ... shoot people dressed as dinosaurs with a virtual shot gun ...
I liked it.

TiddlesLooks like I picked a good day not to read the chatterbox yesterday afternoon. Sorry to hear about your dad. I don't really know what to say. I'll have to have a shave for the funeral. Balls. Surely not a trousers off affair? |

Bollards; my WPC won't be here today... I will miss the handcuffs.
TV: The Magicians S2E11 is starting to go very Dali, darling. Very funny in places, but it's obsession with sex is getting really tedious. Still very funny in places. "I'm a fucking dragon; I'm going to eat your bodies, of course" Still 4*

lol, so naive. Thursday is when they announce the latest delay. Still not delayed as things stand, maybe, just maybe, this is actually it! Some performance figures are already out and it looks like I will struggle to hit 60 FPS at 1440p on my current rig. With ray tracing on the 3080 hilariously averages 11 FPS at 4K ultra. I imagine they will have fixed all the bugs by the time I get my new PC. |

The Chatterbox motto.

I too played PUBG. Our team won. Won I say. The other two guys were really good. Dunno what happened to the fourth guy. Think he fucked off and got killed. 4 kills in the first game.
I fucked up the second game by standing at the top of some stairs when we were last two knowing someone was on the way up and then panicking and missing my shot. Classic crank.

Damned inconvenient, though. I'll have to have a shave for the funeral. Balls. Shaving your balls needs to be approached really carefully. |

Shaving chat. Who uses an electric razor?
I've always been wet. Not been shaving as much during WFH and bought a Braun electric number in the black Friday sale. Reduced from £110 to £39. It's err, shit.
Am I going full Steve Jobs and not holding it correctly?
It does wet and dry shaving - but if I'm going to fuck about with shaving foam I might as well stick with the blade...
{Edit} For clarity - my face.

I still haven't won a sodding game. I should play the squad mode a bit more, it's also the only way to play the new map. |

Razorblog: started off with an electric razor, but after a few years switched to a Gillette multi-blade affair.
These days, I’m all about the shaving oil, foam, single-blade.

Electric shaver all the way. Wet shaves give me a terrible rash.

PUBG
I got to second place with my friend yesterday. Well ... I got killed ten minutes in and my friend went on to second ...
I liked it. I was able to watch and say things like 'look out', and 'behind you.'

Shaving
Wet shave all the way. Electric just doesn't get close enough.
Since lockdown I have mostly been rocking a short beard.
I bought some clippers in April so the hair could be controlled.
I also trim the beard close every few days.
Every few weeks I shave it off properly. Nothing quite beats the feel of being freshly shaved.
The clippers are great. I can't do anything sophisticated, but I can easily keep the hair short and neat.
They have paid for themselves in haircuts now.
Everything else is pure profit.

Does the new Chatterbox have a FRANK? Just me and Felice as moderators. And me as Admin. Not sure to what extent ProBoards take an interest in individual forums (fora?) but as they host them for free they have their own rules and could kick us off if we break them. |

Shaving
I used to wet shave until I got fucked up. In hospital I found out that wet shaving whilst horizontal is a great way to turn your face into chopped liver. So it's now a cheap tri-head Philips razor.
Down below it's scissors - a demi-Brazilian because I have to be ready for operations involving tubes, arteries etc. If I don't do it, the nurses do it in op prep, using a freezing cold, foul-smelling, yellow oil that shrinks everything... I fear that one day, like a kid at the dentist, they'll give me a paper bag with the bits and a 5p piece when I leave.
Bit of a cock and.... Nursey's here...

I hardly ever shaved when I was working, looked a right scruff, since I've retired I shave every day. Started with electric, moved to Gillette Fusion and now use Harry's which are really good. |

Razorblog: still going through a box of 100 cheap Derby Extra blades.
They’re alright, but the Timor blades that came with my razor were very good.

Wet shave *; butterfly safety razor, shaving soap and brush, Derby blades
* with a rechargeable electric razor for the annoying hairs that grow on the end of the bridge of my nose, and the strange one that grows on my lower lip
