Thank You Gillette! Permanent link to this item in the archive.

This could be the story that get's me out of my blogging funk. With all of the shocking and mind-boggling stories to appear in newspapers that make you say "This must be The Onion", it's fantastic to see The Onion get it right. Just a year-and-a-half after The Onion's classic "Fuck Everything, We're Doing Five Blades" parody, yes, Gillette is indeed releasing a razor with exactly five blades and two aloe strips. Simply incredible. Guess which quote is the parody:

  "The Schick launch has nothing to do with this, it's like comparing a Ferrari to a Volkswagen as far as we're concerned,"

or

 "Hey, shaving with anything less than five blades is like scraping your beard off with a dull hatchet."

I'm still alive - and it's still hard to blog...

I really like this photo. It's from a post about the design of the iPod.
