A beard question for all males (and females on PC)
Disclaimer:
What do you do with your beard "trimmings"?
I just got to this realisation, when i cut my beard, i leave an awful mess. Now my bathroom mirror is located over the sink in the bathroom, i would assume this is where the majority of every males face grooming accurs.
Most of the time, i just let it sink down the sink, thinking "This will be a problem for future Visceral". That problem i just had to deal with today. If you let your face hair flow down the drain it cloggs it up. Leaving the waterlock in a horrible mess that you have to open up and clean out with a fork. This horrible goop smells like dead animals and farts combined.
So i just wondered. Is this a global problem, and how can it be solved? Shaving over the toilet bowl seems out of question. Shaving in the shower would just produce the same result, just in a harder place to clean out right?
1: I know this is massivly offtopic.
2: I guess this is "mainly" a male problem and especially if you grow facial hair, since a large part of this community is male this place is a good place as any to ask this sort of question.

I put a towel over the sink, let my shavings fall into it, and take it out to the backyard after I'm done. Let nature take care of it! You could also just toss it in the trash.
@Equanim: LOL!
If I trim at the sink, I just let them sit in the sink and wipe them up with a piece of damp toilet paper or tissue, then throw it in the trash. No fuss, no muss. I do a lot of trimming in the shower, though. I try to consolidate every morning bathroom activity to the warmth and wonder of a nice hot shower.
Also, let's see those beards! If we're going to have such an off topic post, let's see make it worthy...
That seems cruel.
I'm sure they had it coming
Prevents any smell or build up and keeps the whole place flowing like a shitty river.
I second this motion - use TP to scoop into toilet and flush away to heaven
I don't take dumps in my sink, if that's what you're wondering.
winner !
On behalf of all the beard deficient men (and women?) in the world, how dare you! For every beard shaved, there is a broken soul and shattered dream.
Should be super easy, i cut my own hair and this always works for me and it's almost free and easy to do, p.s. don't get the bag wet.
Also i went into this beeing 100% sincere, loved the less helpfull answers though.
*Cue government watch lists.*

I didn't use it but sounds like a good idea.
My question is why were you smelling it?
Young people want to look older with beards. Older people want to look younger without.
I don't think he purposefully went to smell it like some food connoisseur, "Mmm yes... a lovely aroma of shit and dead animals...exquisite..."
He just happened to smell it while shaving.
You have obviously never cleaned the waterlok under your sink. Next time you try it though, dont breathe for a good 10 minutes or so.
I personally use my trimmings to make art collages. I give them out as gifts every Christmas. They are always received with a look of shock that I'm so thoughtful and generous. Your friends and family will love these artistic and soulful pieces of art.
never look at your teeth when using shaving foam, they will look really yellow
