<p>I&#8217;m not sure where that expression came from. I have been shaving since I was 14, and I&#8217;ve never had a close shave. I&#8217;ve had shaves that have cut, bruised, bled, caused multiple blood spots, and splotches, but never had one close. And for goodness sakes, I shave all the time and somehow it never seems to stop coming back. Am I right? Well, just like shaving, the gifs always come back on Fridays. I&#8217;m so sorry about that (not at all)&#8230;</p>
