Today, I shaved my legs for the first time in three weeks. It took half an hour, three disposable razors, and I cut my legs up so badly they look worse then they did when they were hairy. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I shaved my legs and pits for the first time this summer. It took 3 disposable razors and an hour to get the job done. I've clearly been single for far too long. FML
Today, I shaved my legs. It's been so long since I've shaved that my razor broke. FML
Today, I haven't shaved for so long the hair on my legs has split ends. FML
Today, I tried shaving my bikini area for the first time. I ended up cutting myself several times. I now have impressive razor burn, and it's incredibly painful to even wear pants. FML
Today, I decided to shave my legs completely to be more confident in my dress. I spent over an hour making sure my legs were perfectly shaved. It wasn't until I had been out awhile that I realized I forgot to shave my armpits. FML
Today, I shaved my legs and armpits for the first time in 6 weeks. Unfortunately, I didn't have a hot date, I just had my yearly gyno exam. FML
Today, while shaving my nether regions, I slipped and sliced myself in three separate places. They won't completely stop bleeding. I'm virtually having a second period, and it hurts to close my legs. FML
Today, I decided to conquer my fear of blades, and tried shaving my legs with a razor. I sat on the side of my bathtub and wet my legs, but some of the water splashed. I slipped on it and fell back, hitting my head on the tile wall and slicing my leg open at the same time. FML
Today, I bought an expensive razor that's supposed to be great. My roommate asked if she could borrow it, and as her legs just looked like they needed touching up, I said sure. After a strangely long amount of time, she came back, thanked me and left. Her legs were still hairy. FML
Today, I shaved for the first time. My mum gave me a razor and I spent about 20 minutes trying to use it. I gave up, yelling, "FUCK IT!" and put it back on the shelf. It fell, and as it hit the floor, a lid fell off. I'd tried to shave with a sheathed razor for 20 minutes. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Get a Schick Quattro for women. Disposable razors are garbage.

Ouch! Try using an electric hair clipper on your legs before shaving. Might help bring down some wear and tear on the blades and save your skin.

First off, never buy disposable razors--they suck! I've actually found that I don't have to shave as often and I get a closer shave if I use the men's Quattro razors. Secondly, unless you were in two full leg casts, what would possess you to not shave your legs for 3 weeks? This just made me think about hairy legs and armpits! Leave the "feminist" stuff to Paula Cole and shave that junk!!

209 - She doesn't have to shave that often if she doesn't want to. Bugger off with your 'ideals'. Just because you think there's no reason doesn't mean there isn't; what happened to preference?

Damn, you must have been using some shit razors and no shaving cream. I generally only shave my legs once or twice a month, at most, because **** shaving, and it's never taken more than one razor.

Shaving sucks, but it has to be done regularly if it's something you want to keep up with at all. If you really hate it, consider waxing instead of trying a pulsed light hair removal system like the Tria.

Only 3 weeks? PUH-lease.

Maybe if you'd shave more often you'd cut down on the time, then when you go a free weeks without shaving you wouldn't have to take as much time. Disposables suck.

Ugh, definitely use disposable razors when clearing up weeks of growth. I decided to come out of hibernation after a good three /months/, and I've gone through not a disposable razor, but a Schick Hydro 5, AND I'M ONLY ONE LEG DOWN. I stopped because it was too cold and the hot water ran out, and I've still got one leg to go. My god I am a goddamn werewolf. (Meanwhile, the hair on my head can't stop falling out)
