#1 Been using single blade for reasons having nothing to do with Gillete's pusillanimity for years

#2 grom,

I also use single blade house brands. The only P&G products we use consistently are Charmin, Frebreze (oder eliminator) and Dawn (dishwashing liquid) and those only when they are on sale for less than the store brand (which happens a lot for some reason)

#3 also, P&G stock fell about 10% yesterday but likely will recover at least half that today based on pre market action

#4 Well I've been using II, and then they disappeared from the stores - to be replaced by III. When I got used to III, they stated replacing them by IV. I said several things in Russian and went back to I. Been using it ever since .

#5 "I said several things in Russian"

Something like "Пошёл ты на три буквы!" I guess

#8 The company has declared it wants men to hold each other "accountable."

This is of course BS. The company, like any company, wants to sell its products. They just think that they'll get a lot of free advertising when they cause a "shitstorm", that's all.

Nike made the same bet with Kaepernick.

#9 Been using the Dollar Shave club for years. Nice razors for a really good price and no SJW bullshit.

#10 Nike made the same bet with Kaepernick.

And Nike’s sales went up as a result. Inner city blacks are a major segment of their customer base.

P&G stock fell about 10% yesterday but likely will recover at least half that today

I just looked at P&G’s stock price —91.62 at the moment. While it dropped slightly yesterday, it remains well within the recent range, which is at the high end of the historic range. We shall have to wait for the next quarterly report to see if this will have started to effect sales. I probably have six months of replacement blades in stock, so won’t be making any decisions until then — Mr. Wife is wearing a goatee at the moment, so we aren’t using them up quickly.

#11 Harry's razors. Cheaper and better all the way around.

Gillette's next featured product, estrogen laced butt plugs. "Coming to a transgender Target store bathroom near you".

#12 Ad was written by an SJW anti-male feminist.

#13 Bic works for me when I bother shaving at all.

#14 And be sure to boycott all other P&G products as well. This morning I was happy to buy Speed Stick deodorant, NOT Old Spice. And I let P&G know about it.
