I was clearing some brush with a machete, 6 stitches in my shin.
If you really don't like your leg hair, just double up your socks. That's no way to shave, man.
That reminds me of a few years ago when I noticed a neighbor down the street running a weed eater while wearing a small bikini. She had on heavy gardening gloves and safety goggles, but to protect the rest of her whole body just the bikini. And it was a really big-ass weed eater too, the kind with the extra side handle. Might have even been gas powered.
Yeah, well. 🤷🏼♂️
OMG. I worked on lawn care as a teen. I still to this day avert my face away from anyone weed whacking. Received many hits to the face even with safety gear.
I know right? I wouldn't even use a weed-eater in shorts, let along a bathing suit. What got me was the contrast between the bikini and the goggles & gloves lol.
Username checks out!
I would probably have cleared the brush before it reached my shin, that way you could probably get by with a trimmer instead of a machete. And doing it before spring has its advantages too so the beach bod is ready before swim season.
