It cuts me up.
Why do we need four blades on one razor? What can four blades do that two blades, used twice, can't? Today I saw a guy on the train with a shaving cut just next to his ear. OK, he had four, all in a row, a bit like this \\\\.
What annoys me is, I like two blades, I'm happy with two blades, but it is becoming very hard to find two blades on a stick. And four blades are twice as expensive.
Now they sell vibrating blade razors. I've used an electric razor, and the buzzing was not helping, it was hindering, and getting in my ear-hole. Come on, are you telling me a vibrating blade is going to cut more than a non-vibrating blade? It's not a chainsaw; it's a piece of sharp metal that feels funny.

big weekend
Big weekend!
Saturday morning, walked down to the post-office to send off a copy of A Bollywood Beauty to Texas, and saw a house with half a wheelie-bin above there front door . 157 Rankins Rd, Kensington. Why.
Saturday night was poker night. Maxx and Jeanni hosted a Texas Hold 'em game, twelve players, one person holding all the chips at the end. Damn I would have liked to stay 'til the end, but eight hours later there were still three players left. 3:30am, time for Shalini and Mark to go home.
Sunday, went to Sangeeta and Niraj's house for dinner, and played badminton, roasted marshmellows, and told ghost stories.
If that wasn't enough, tonight is Shalini's book launch, quite possibly the highlight of the year!
