one little stubborn-ass stubble meant I had to get a little creative with the razor, now I've got a big ass cut on my lip and it looks like I have super herpes D:

I haven't cut myself during shaving since I was a teenager and I forgot how annoying it can be when you nick yourself good. I'm not talking about the tiny little cuts that bleed for 2 seconds and that's it, I'm talking about those where it looks like you took a potato peeler to your face and went to town.

so how often does ATOT partake in self-mutilation?

I don't have ass stubble and I really, really don't want to hear about your's.

Maybe once per year.

Edit: Oh, I didn't see that you were excluding little cuts. In that case my answer is never.

only time i get small nicks is when the blades start to get dull.

Haven't had a major cut like you describe in years.

not very often at all, then again I don't have much to shave considering I keep a full beard.

For some reason, I forgot to shave this morning. So I have a good stubble going on.

Ever since I invested in a Pro Glide trimmer and went to the slow shave I haven't cut myself once. Before that, maybe once every few months.

Tiny nicks here and there. It took a while to get good with the safety razor.

You need a "Never because I'm not an idiot and can function in a modern society without causing bodily harm to myself" poll option.

Since I stopped using a straight razor, very rarely. Vary rarely even when I did.
