It's A TrickMr. Containment and I have come to similar conclusions about shaving apparatus. I have a very good electric razor, and I like it very much, but I mostly use it for the trimmer attachment. I would rather a blade. Through the annoying but most valuable method of actually trying the damn things, Mr. Containment and I have both landed on one particular blade(s) with a handle on solution as superior (Mr. Containment has actually gone farther than me on this point: his optimal solution is blade(s) with a non-matching handle on, but I digress somewhat).
I bring this up because I am out of that stuff, and in an effort to peel away a week's worth of travel grunge I have been forced to deal with the stash of cheap disposable razors that have languished in the back of the drawer these many years. The experience moves me to offer two advices:
The nice thing about some types of disposable razors, though, is that they come with a little clear plastic coverlet that is just about the size of the razor head, and is very difficult to see from a distance. This lets one turn to a roommate, say "Hey! Watch this!", and proceed to shave one's tongue. It's a trick; the knack is to press convincingly. The other trick is to make sure the little plastic coverlet is on.
