Classic, the cheap brand was very uncomfortable to my skin.

Favorite time of the year.
Warm or cold weather?

Cartridge-razor or classic no-nonsense DE-blade?

I actually use a common 1912 GEM single edge razor. I've used this particular razor since Freshman year in college.

For thenourposws of the game, I'll choose "no-nonsense DE blade', since I have a few WEI vintage Gillette shaving kits put back in a drawer somewhere.

Cookbooks:

"The Gold Cook Book"

Or

"Fanny Farmer"?

"Fanny Farmer"?

That has an altogether different connotation in Brit-speak.

My mother once dropped her paperback copy of Fanny Farmer in a soup kettle, and it was the best thing she ever cooked. So I'll have to go with her.

In a debate with the opposite sex:

Do you give in to avoid further confrontation even though
you are right but feel that it is hopeless?

Remain firm because you know you are right regardless

How long do you want to wait to have...

Just kidding. After 21 years of being together, fortunately, we are aligned on the big things, and, in truth, most things - those smaller things that we don't, we agree to disagree and move on. If we have to make a decision on one - there's enough good will between us, that we know when to give in to the other and vice versa.

I'm fine with agreeing to disagree, but I won't say I believe something I don't.
