Heads-up, the Swiss Post somehow shit the bed with the samples. Usually it takes one week for a letter from here to the US and I've sent the samples to @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social, @walden@sub.wetshaving.social, and @whosgotthepudding@sub.wetshaving.social on July 3rd, but they stayed in Zürich for a week and only reached US customs yesterday. I'm sorry about that.
I'm not sure whether they'll make it to you in time. If not, I propose that we wait for everyone to have their sample and postpone the inaugural BVWSC. Thoughts?
I'll send you your individual tracking info in PM.
Also tagging @PorkButtsNTaters666@sub.wetshaving.social, @sahenders@sub.wetshaving.social, and @DaveWave94@sub.wetshaving.social, so that we can all agree.
A postponement due to the post makes sense. Is that where the word postpone comes from I wonder?
Lol, calling subject matter expert @PorkButtsNTaters666@sub.wetshaving.social to get nerdsniped on the different etymologies of post as in postal service and post as in postpone.
Post as in postal service seems to come from the Latin "positus", meaning "placed" or "stationed". Dixit Perplexity:
Post as in postpone is a Latin preposition meaning 'after' or 'later'.
