Yankarang
I bought Club Yanka over two years ago when I saw it in an SOTD of u/InfernalInternal and it's a fun warm scent I can't really classify. The nutmeg keeps surprising me in a good way.
Bangarang has nothing in common with Club Yanka as far as I can tell, but it paints a similarly playful image. Nutmeg, vanilla, and florals can play well together, as it turns out.
I'm really enjoying the Dandy. It's not as large and flashy as my favourites, but it's a nice medium sized hollow ground with plenty of audible feedback, a pleasant and ergonomic geometry, and a pretty, no-frills design. Functional (which I mean as praise).
My backup Moar Boar is still a little greedy and hogs lather, but that was to be expected (This is only shave number 4, and I didn't do anything to break it in faster, not even test lathers), and it's already soft and pleasant to use.

I'm enjoying the decadence of digging through my den and trying an old or new software combo twice every day.

FTFY
Couldn't agree more with this sentiment. I'm not organized enough to pick "old" and "new" each day, but am enjoying not being tied to just one setup for the day.
Apparently, you managed to get the one TI without manufacturing issues. ( Oh, wait, I've managed to get two ;) )

Almost like there's a pattern of quality work 🙂
Sorry, that misunderstanding came from the you you fixed. I'm not tying myself to an old and new each day
