    Wet Shaving in Indonesia

    I think you're reading far too deep into El_G's question. He was just curious because you have experience and Hargadunia could be a useful resource. I don't think he's doing an investigative exposé on questionable online retailers.. lol It was relevant to me and IMO this thread, as most of the...

    Wet Shaving in Indonesia

    I'm new to DE shaving and I use a Merkur 34c, which is similar to the Edwin Jagger DE89 in terms of mild aggressiveness (soon I'll have a DE89 too, so I can compare). For blades, so far I've used Derby (which I didn't like), as well as Astra SP and Personna Red, which seem to work well for me...

    List of National Public Holidays of Indonesia

    Sounds about right from my experience last year. As still fairly new to Indonesia, I was surprised that the holiday never seemed to end. I was relieved that things were back to normal, but then most of my friends were still gone for mudik. Freedom with no one to enjoy it with! I dropped by a...

    What?! That fake ass genie broke our contract! Perhaps you're just too big and stong to be killed. You must be a wet shaver. ;)

    Jokes

    Sorry guys, didn't realize we can make jokes but not discuss them. So here's a joke... A dude was walking in the desert and came across a magic lamp. He rubbed it and a genie popped out. Genie: "I will grant you three wishes, anything you want, but that same wish will be granted two-fold to a...

    It's a f***ing joke enjoyed by f***ing racists and made at the expense of oppressed people. There, I fixed it for you.

    Wet Shaving in Indonesia

    It's whatever you want it to be. The general consensus is that yes, the shave cream and the lather it builds is very important to getting a close, irritation free shave, with a good post shave feel. Shaving brushes also drastically improve shaves. But none of it is absolutely essential. I...

    Wet Shaving in Indonesia

    I'm very interested to hear about most if not all of these, especially those that are available within Indonesia. Although I have the means to order internationally, it's still a hassle with the long wait, customs, and unreliable Pos Indonesia to consider. I can't speak for other posters, but...

    Wet Shaving in Indonesia

    Hahaha! It's definitely a divisive scent. They say you either love it or hate it. Personally, it's not my favorite, but I don't mind it at all. I can only judge from using the shave cream, which I think is great, even if the scent is not amazing in my book. I'm uncertain about this one because I...

    Wet Shaving in Indonesia

    Good thinking, haha! Well it looks legit. Smells like Tabac. And this supermarket sells lots of imported stuff, including alcohol.. What do you think? Real deal or phony baloney?

    Wet Shaving in Indonesia

    Today I saw Tabac After Shave Lotion in the supermarket, which really surprised me. I typically go for alcohol-free products (balms instead of alcohol spashes), but since I can't have anything containing alcohol shipped from overseas and I know lots of guys love this product, I decided to buy...

    Try going to settings, "Safari," and "clear history and cookies." Worked on my iPhone.

    Yup, it works now! Thanks. That's like the equivalent of blowing into the Nintendo cartridge.

    Mobile issues

    I'm using the standard Safari browser. That's right.. No "INSERT QUOTE" button appears. There's no message when I hit "+Quote" but it changes to "-Quote".

    I'm using an iPhone.. Not sure if that makes a difference. Also, I just tried to include a screenshot for you, but it didn't upload.

    Mobile issues

    No.. The buttons I see are "post a reply," "upload a file," and "more options." When I hit "more options," it's the first two plus "preview."

    Thanks guys. I really like the "quote clipboard" as E_G calls it. The new multi-quote system is great on the full site. The problem is I can't find the "Insert quote" button when I'm using the mobile version... Maybe I'm just not seeing it?

    Being Black In Indonesia

    Haven't seen that one, I'll check it out! I just watched the documentary series TIME: The Kalief Browder Story, which I think you'll like. Kid was tried as an adult and held in one of the most dangerous prisons for 3 years, tortured and starved, 800 days in solitary confinement, all because he...

    Being Black In Indonesia

    I never said you did those things. But you mock and belittle the victims of racial discrimination with your "woe is me" sentiment. I recommend you read the book The New Jim Crow for more insight on the criminal justice system and structural racism that exists in the US.
