I can attest that it actually does work, you just have to ignore the instructions on the packaging.

Actually, the cucumber variety has a decent smell. Don't ever buy the raspberry one, though. Actually, don't ever buy raspberry anything.

What's wrong with a nice wet shave?

chained_bear commented on the word nair
Nothing, unless you have to do it every two days.
On the other hand, if you buy this product, brave its noxious stench, and stand in your shower stall with your legs apart for up to 25 minutes... You won't have to shave for about a week.

chained_bear commented on the word nair
No bilby, you misunderstand. You slather it on your chin-whiskers, but then you have to stand in your shower stall naked with your legs apart for 25 minutes, to get it to work.

When I was a kid in Rochester, NY, on Halloween the older kids would run around with this stuff, hunting younger kids.
At least that was the word on the playground. Might have been a (sub)urban legend, as I never actually saw anyone rendered bald.

chained_bear commented on the word nair
Well, if the neighborhood kids thus attacked then stood still in their shower stalls for 25 minutes... ;)
This sounds like the middle-school/junior-high trick of slipping a boy Midol to make him turn into a girl.

There are at least three conversations going on today which are simply so baffling to me that I can think of nothing to contribute. Do you all know something that I don't? Like an imminent attack of hairy, fanged celery plants. Or worse.

John -- greetings from a fellow Rochesterian! You and I sure picked a fine place to grow up, didn't we?
Oh, and, uh, something about Nair.

I like the Halloween story. Besides, this word nair does seem very playgroundish.
Gotcha! Nair nair nair nair nair nair!

Not having lived in Rochester, I can say that I find the history of Eastman Kodak quite fascinating. I might feel differently if I'd lived (or even visited) there though.
