The Great Debate
"Iron sharpens iron." A place for men to impact each other by debate and exchange of ideas. This is a group where no ideas are off limits. If your motto is, "I never talk about politics or religion," this group is probably not for you. A "gym" for thinkers.See More
Graeme Smyth replied to James de moe's discussion Best shaver under £50?"IF I was buying my first brush and soap/cream again I would go for something like these.
Brush £22.00
TOBS Sandalwood Cream £9.45 or Proraso Cream £5.95
I know its not a set but this way you would have some cash left…"
Graeme Smyth replied to Matthew Hockley's discussion Trouser Fitment Troubles"Best to buy pants that fit your legs and rear and get the waist taken in I think. You have a lot more room for manoeuvre that way."
Graeme Smyth replied to Victor E. Franklin's discussion Micro Living and Minimalism"I think the best maxim for this sort of thing is "don't have anything in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful", I have absolutely no idea who the originator of this quote was but
I have a bad habit…"
Graeme Smyth replied to The Earl of Essex's discussion Notebooks"Go to the dollar store and buy yourself a cheap notebook, carry it for a few weeks and see if/how you use it.
I use mine as an aide memoir, temporary address book, shopping list. I enter contacts and important notes into Entourage/Evernote daily.…"
Graeme Smyth replied to Derek's discussion Fighting tips?"Avoid fighting if at all possible, quite a few places have law that say you are required to escape if at all possible before resorting to physical force.
The consequences of violence are almost exclusively negative, you might get hurt, you might…"
Graeme Smyth replied to Tim's discussion Completely Bored at 26"Time to sit down and reevaluate what you want to be doing. What do you want to be doing in 5 or 10 years? Then once you have that figured out make a roadmap of how you are going to get there. Until you know where you want to be and how you are going…"
Graeme Smyth replied to Brendan's discussion Do you use British or American English?"As a UK person, British English is what I use, but its not that one flavour is more correct than the other, its just regional variation, my only true gripe is that thru is not an acceptable spelling for through."
Graeme Smyth replied to Jeremy's discussion Sheltered"1. I think toastmaster(is that what you call the organisation?), is a good club to be in for this kind of thing, it forces you to speak infront of reasonably sized groups of people, great for building confidence.
2. As John Muir said Boxing is…"
Graeme Smyth commented on Matthew Jones's group Real Shaving"@Sloan Thank you,
Its a O3(3rd Quarter 1969) Gillette Super Adjustable (84mm handle) with Supermax Blades. I've been going for it with the DE this last week and its been working ok with no nicks. Felt the blunt edge of the blade on my ear once…"
Graeme Smyth replied to Will Whitson's discussion The Importance of Graduate Degrees"I would hold off on grad school until you have a clear goal.
If you are in the situation where you are thinking "I want to do x but my lack of a masters is stopping me" go right on otherwise I would hold off.

Graeme Smyth replied to Andrew McNeal's discussion Starting a new job at Walmart"A job is a job, so no I wouldn't worry about what that job is as long as its legal and pays enough to keep you fed and housed.
Once you have figured out what you want from life you can move on to bigger and better things if you want to."

David F. replied to thedifference's discussion My friend received an anonymous email about me this morning..."What site did you write the blogs on? What app? I hate to break it to you roughly but if you are going to journal you need to choose between a hardcopy (book) which can be lost, or stolen vs digital file. Choosing to blog online has huge risks…"

My Experience with PIT Training
So I just got back from PIT training this past weekend.Wow.Some really beautiful work done with some wonderful men. It amazes me how I can step into these groups of men and have different standards, viewpoints, and stories and love them like brothers. I truly feel blessed to have these challenging and growing experiences.I had been going to an i group for a while now and so these processes weren't exactly new but discussing them and understanding them on an intellectual level was really…See More

Vytautas replied to Nathan DeParis's discussion Women: The Infallible Baromoter"Assumption to a very high degree and a subjective statement based on the viewpoint of an upper-class white male almost two and a half centuries ago.
It's the product of a certain place and time, and it's interesting as a statement on…"
Chuck Knight replied to Chris Hamm's discussion Who Wears a Watch Anymore?"Looks like a standard Seagull movement, styled after a Valjoux.
Skeleton watches are my absolute favorites. They're more difficult to read, but so beautiful.
Nice choice."
Nathan DeParis posted a discussionWomen: The Infallible Baromoter
Jon Quincy Adams once said,“From all that I have read of history and government of human life and manners, I have drawn this conclusion, that the manners of women were the most infallible barometer to ascertain the degree of morality and virtue of a nation.”To get the thread rolling or spinning I would say he is right to a very high degree. What say yous guys.See More
