A Good Shaver Goes Bad (and not in a good way)


So, there once was a great shaver. It was a Gillette M3Power shaver. And all was right with the world. It hummed, it vibrated and it was a great little shaver.

But after 2 years (really 2 years!) the motor finally gave out and a new one had to be purchased.

But the M3Power couldn't stand the test of time apparently. No. Now there is the M3 Power NITRO.

Really, "Nitro". The "Nitro" is still a great razor. It hums and vibrates as it should and cuts a mean beard. But it is strikingly ugly. I include a picture below in order to show you how ugly it is.




Now, every morning I get up and face this... this... ugly health and beauty aid. And I think, every morning, Gez, this is hideous. It looks like something that should be on the Green Hornet's Gay Utility Belt.
