The future is now!

Do you ever have one of those moments where you realize that you are, in fact, living in the future. That eureka moment happened to me today while I was at Fred Meyer. Prepare yourselves, folks, for the hallmark of our time: The Mach 5! (Actually, it's the Gillette Fusion, but who cares)
I had to buy this thing because it's just THAT insane and wonderful at the same time. It has FIVE BLADES! Plus, my Mach 3 was broken by the infinitely helpful bag throwers at the Philadelphia Airport (TWO count-em TWO people breathed through their teeth and gave me their condolences when they found out I had luggage going through Philly). Have you seen that Mad TV skit with the Mach 10? "The 9th and 10th blades scrape your teeth clean!" We are halfway there, folks. Who knows where this razor war will end. Now for the review: In my years of shaving, I have cut myself maybe four or five times. I nicked myself twice when shaving today. This is a dangerous razor, people, but isn't that exactly what I was looking for? (The answer is YES!)

Now, for some random things. When I was looking for a picture of this bad mother, I came accross some Czech page with crazy/awesome inventions:











Take that, guy minding his own business!
What the hell would anyone do with this table? Is it for home defense? Fighing off barbarians? Would it even get through +1/20 damage reduction?

You are officially a slave to the corporate machine. Five blades? You should be ashamed...

Would you like me to pick up a barbarian defense for you when I go to Prague? :)

Let's not get into this argument again about "Who's the slave to the corporate machine..."

Yeah, tasering a guy in the back is totally unhonorable. Bring shame on your ancestors doing that business. On the other hand that table is AWESOME, I could myabe see using it to fight off kobolds. Which are a constant threat. And loom like a shadow over everything we do.

If the guy is going to rob you he should at least FACE you. If I have to beat one more would-be-robber to death with a table leg-baseball bat to the back I swear, it will be the first time. The shield is pretty sweet. And did you get a POWERED razor? It's like powered armor, but it hurts you instead of protecting you. Yay!
