P.S.: The story behind the razor blade slot that quite a few people find when home remodeling has a simple explanation – some houses built before the 1970s had these slits for razor disposal for two reasons.
One was that the razors were dangerous to put in general trash, and the second was that people didn’t think about littering and trash the way we do now. For them, waste used to ‘magically’ disappear, so dropping them into a secret place between your bathroom walls seemed like a great idea.
