I thought bars and restaurants that served alcohol encouraged designated driving. You would think that they would offer nonalcoholic versions of drinks like a Bloody Mary so that the DD would have some interesting options.

Hmm, in the Instagram post: “If we tell you here, you gotta keep it hush hush.” Are they just trying to make it sound naughty and risqué? Or are they actually skirting the law with full nudity? Oh goody gumdrop, besides the thrill of full monty on stage, there’s the added thrill of knowing the place could be raided at any given moment.

Doesn’t sound f*cked up to me, not even a little. In the olden days, back when conventional wisdom held that the best form of contraception was an aspirin, held between the knees, a mistress was such an enormous threat to a wife not just because of the emotional betrayal but also the possible financial burden that supporting a mistress & child imposed. Flipped around, no husband wanted his wife to get pregnant with another man’s child, lest he get stuck with raising and supporting a kid that wasn’t his. Even after the pill, Roe, and DNA testing, that mentality persisted. Maybe that psychology shaped your agreement; maybe it has absolutely nothing to do with it. Regardless, it sounds like you and your wife have figured out what works for the two of you, which is all that matters.

Barcelona has changed a lot since my previous trip in the Eighties. In 1988, I heard Catalan everywhere, but since then, there has been a wave of immigration into Spain, with many settling in Barcelona and working in the service industry. Before talking to someone, I always asked “¿castellano?”, and most of them were relieved because the immigrants from LatAm countries speak Spanish as a native tongue, learning just enough Catalan to get by. Even the Indian and Pakistani cabdrivers I had both spoke excellent Spanish but only basic Catalan. The mix depends on the day, of course, but a lot of the chaperos at Thermas are Latino. The 2 Moroccans I spoke to both spoke Spanish but not Catalan. Just ask “¿castellano?” if your Spanish is good enough. I never had a problem with anyone anywhere. Most people who work in tourism also speak enough English to get by, if your Spanish isn’t up to the task. I arrived at the train station, not the airport, and was all over the tourist district. The signage I saw was written in Catalan first, then Spanish, then English. All 3 languages were always in the same font size, LOL.

That assumes that every single client knows to do a thorough Internet search before hiring RA. Many, @BritSD for example, will just go by his RentMen ad and end up disappointed. If you lie in the #1 site through which clients find you but are honest elsewhere, that still makes you a liar.

I’ll gladly overlook a bit of age-shaving as long as an escort’s photos are recent. RA’s photos aren’t even a country mile of being “recent.”

There’s also a chance that the sun will supernova and we’ll all be incinerated, but honestly, I don’t worry about it much.

Closeted gays have another option: dealing with your sh!t instead of sh!tting on other people. If you’re just there to pee, having to deal with men having sex is creepy and gross. For underage boys, it’s exponentially creepier and grosser. Now that this crackdown puts the fear of God, or Rikers, in PennStation regulars, I bet plenty of them “magically” work out their issues and figure out a legal, non-creepy/gross way of satisfying their sexual urges. Funny how that works.

I’m in Spain for 6 months and am really enjoying how much more considerate Spaniards are of others. Nobody ever talks in a movie theater, not even a whisper. Guys never pull out their cells in locker rooms to snap selfies. Heck, they don’t even pull them out to talk, text, or surf. And in all the many train and bus station bathrooms I’ve been in, guys just go to the bathroom, nothing more, nothing else. We Americans have somehow lost respect for others as a societal value. PS: I didn’t belong to a gym in Buenos Aires but did go to the movies a ton during my 3-month stay. Nope, not a whisper there either.

I’m convinced that Spanish lentil stew will one day become one of the great American comfort foods, even if it might take a century or so to catch on. As much as I don’t care for lentils, I absolutely love this lentil stew with chorizo. I would leave out the potato because imo it makes the dish too starchy. Spanish chorizo is fairly easy to find in big cities or on the Internet, but if you want to avoid the pork, you can replace it with a chicken sausage as long it’s a really strong flavorful one.

Instead of “pervert,” how about selfish and inconsiderate? If you want a T-room experience, go to a gay bar, better yet one with a back room, a gay bathhouse, a gay sex club, go virtual and cruise the apps … so many legal options where you won’t be scaring a poor man, or worse a poor child, who just needs to go to the bathroom.

I've been traveling since February and have relied on Internet reviews to pick hotels, restaurants, etc. Even the best places get a few 1-star reviews because some people always find something to complain about, no matter how great the establishment is for the other 99.9% of customers.

Underwear ads back in the day, when they still showed bulges … https://x.com/atphotness/status/1974574525418475784?s=46
