Since international postal service to the US of A has completely broken down, it is time to explore alternatives to the classic Buena Vista Wetshaving Social Club formula. This time, it's a theme shave, and the theme is (for obvious reasons) The Strait of Hormuz.

FAQ

  1. How does this work? You choose your gear in the most Strait-of-Hormuz-y way, and shave on Wednesday. Don't forget to post, though.

  2. OK, but what are the rules? You poor fool, don't you know that the rules-based-international order is over, and that everything goes? Postmodernity, dammit!

  3. I have never done this before, and I'm afraid. Can I join? Just do it. Eternal glory^1^ is waiting for you.
