    Can a man appreciate vintage and be metro?

    Soaps tend to be more economical. You can go as cheap as $2 for something like Williams, or get a high-end soap for $7-12 a puck. Either one should give you at least 100 shaves, and will have the two important things canned products generally lack: lubrication and water.

    Can a man appreciate vintage and be metro?

    I think the danger is really overblown. I started about nine months ago, and in that time I have cut myself exactly twice, and never deep enough to draw blood. Every time I have shaved with a cartridge razor (also exactly twice) I have cut myself. You might be interested in trying a DE...

    Someone has clearly never had a straight razor shave :-)

    Rate My Look

    Check your local antique store. Mine had them all in a coffee tin marked "$5 ea." Most were pretty gaudy, but I found a nice plain gold-colored one and a set of matching cufflinks for an additional $2.50.

    Why do they always wanna try your hat on?

    I would simply say "excuse me," and take my hat back.

    I like the color/pattern combo, and I really like the tie. I can get passable knots, but never quite right. Is it my eyes, or is there something going on with the stitching on your right lapel?

    Service at a service station!

    What a pleasant surprise! I stopped at the 76 on my way home today to tank up. Since my tank is on the passenger side (I drive a Subaru) I normally get out to stretch my legs instead of making the attendant walk around the car. (for some strange reason, it is illegal to operate the pump...

    How to do It: Stiff Starch Grandma's Way

    That was my thinking as well...when I lived in Germany I did all my laundry by hand. I would imagine that the dryer does far more damage to clothing than wringing and twisting would. Same for the iron; a shirt spends much less time under the iron than being abraded in the dryer.
