    You’ll notice he just ignores what he cannot answer, which is a very bro thing to do. 🙃

     “It’s a Wonderful Life” was also a box-office flop, so a rough start isn’t the end of the world. With good word of mouth and streaming audiences, “Bros” could still make a profit - and box office is not the only gauge of merit in a Marvel-mad movie world. 

    I saw it this week when I was surprised to find it on Amazon prime.

    i agree that most people will see this movie outside of the theater - the studio will then make up its capital outlay and turn a profit.  i'm surprised at the marketing budget, and strategy to put so much money into initial marketing.

     

     

  2. One thing I forgot to mention....some channels on Roku will let you stream live television IF you have a cable provider for television--you cannot use that provider if you use them only for internet service.

    i have xfinity stream which i use with my roku stick. i have xfinity internet, so stream is an extra 10/month. you can download an app to the roku stick that lets you watch live TV through xfinity stream. i get something like 40 channels. broadcast and a few others. no cable premium stations, though.

  3. Unless you have as many kids as the Duggars, what on earth are you going to do with 5 gallons of milk?? It doesn't keep in the fridge for that long, and really, how much milk can you drink?

    perhaps a milk bath??

  4. Your thoughts requested on this exchange:

     

    So I'm looking on Rentmen this week, and here's this new guy that says he's coming to my town. Nice Pics! I exchange text/ RM emails (he shows me private pics, which are face pics, he's handsome). I like what i am seeing and reading-- he quotes rate of 300/hr. --high end for my area, And he a little tentative on whether he can make the trip to a new town worth it for him, which i completely understand. Again, pics look good, exchange is not flaky. There's no info on him here ( i searched). So i say okay, and we agree on Fri (tonight, as i write this), just for an hour, and I say 8 or 9 ish, i'm flexible.

     

    Mid-afternoon -- I text to confirm; we exchange texts. He confirms that, yes he is coming to town, on his way as we are texting, we agree on 9.

     

    7ish ---i get a text....

    Him--i made a mistake, misquoted you my rate. i usually charge 400/hr and the voice text to you came out 3. just realized it.

    Me--we that's over my budget, thanks anyway.

    Him -- well, i made the mistake, i will man up and go ahead with 3.

     

    In meantime, i look on Rentmen, and now there are a couple of reviews, but last one 10/3 says reviewer had a good time but pics were "a little outdated."

     

    Given the last min upcharge request and this comment, i say thanks but no thanks, even after he's said, "you seem cool as hell, and it was my mistake....."

     

    As i sit here, a little horned, i wonder... what would you have done??

  5. yeah? i sent him a couple text messages and it was like pulling teeth to get responses.

    me: saw you on RM, can i ask about particulars and availability? i am [my username as client] on RM

    him: what would u like to know?

    me: are you here in [my town] [they are often not, actually in SF]? Rates? Availability for tomorrow?

    him: I am but leaving late tonight.

     

    so perhaps tonight would have been a possibility if i texted back, but still had no info on rates. perhaps he's not feeling like working tonight.

    mind you i first texted him at 4:20 today, so it wasn't like i was looking for something go come together in an hour, which i can understand an escort may not appreciate.
