Man, when I saw the third Blade movie starring Wesley Snipes, I thought I’d seen enough. How many more Blades can a person take. There is a sickening marketing scheme that is plaguing the RAZOR industry.

We have 3 blades.

Our 3-blader has aloe.

Oh yeah? Well we have 4 now.

Screw that, here’s the 5th one, and it’s for precision =P

I think Gillette and Schick have taken it too far.

Even as I write this right now in Firefox, the Gillette Fusion tab (using flash, my favorite net technology) of my browser is talking to me about a breakthrough in technology. Technology? I know a guy who just paid $250 for a straight edge blade (old barber-shop style) to shave with. Why do we need a breakthrough in razor technology? I thought it was bad enough when we started putting triple-A batteries in em and let them vibrate against the shaving cream. Now we have a blade for precision. Procter & Gamble are driving me mad.

Well played by Nivea and Phillips! This ad hits the nail on the head.
