An advert that mirrors my thoughts on shaving gear

“Gluttony, in it’s most vulgar form, is manifested in garbage pails piled high with wasted food and mountains of empty liquor bottles.  We of North America are probably the most gluttonous people in history, save those of ancient Rome.  Millions could live on what we throw away.  And our gluttony goes even further; we are caught in the fearful merry-go-round of our industrial civilization based on our gluttonous consumption of the products of the machine.  It is our sin of gluttony and it’s attendant greed that has delivered our world over into the power of the machine.  The more the machine produces, the more we have to consume, until we become overstuffed with things, and find ourselves in a situation peculiar to our age; that strange anomaly of want in the midst of plenty.”  

From a 50 year old sermon by the late John Leffler

I fixed it for you.  

As Fred Sanford said when he was told that Diamonds are Forever: “and so are the payments”.
