If you're aware of how they do butt implants, you know they use a solid, firm piece of silicone placed under the muscle. That's the plastic surgery standard. No one worth their salt uses 'putty.' Perhaps some fat grafting from other parts of your body, but never a foreign substance. That's how drag queens usually get their curves and for many, it's ended up disfiguring or even killing them (free-form silicone work). Implants: Heal time is upwards of one month. There's no 'curing' to it. It's the suitures you're healing from.

Member consensus isn't a strong suit around here. The energy it would take to get everyone to agree would be a huge waste of time and resource. Rob seems to be be both open to suggestion and doing well with the steering wheel. I don't see why that needs to change. He has a team of mods who have handled things with a gentler touch, but while still keeping things in line. Let's not kill the goose that laid the golden egg just yet, no?

Joking aside, it wasn't really the right response to a serious discussion. Jarrod was just trying to be helpful.

C'mon, don't be a shit. He wasn't complaining: He was just sharing an experience. I've dealt with having to quietly leave a restaurant or put clients 'to bed' when they've overindulged. It happens, but escorts should never forget that we need to do things in the right way to avoid liability issues and possible legal repercussions. These are the little things you learn when spending extended time with someone. It's really all about making sure the client's experience is a smooth, good one and that he doesn't feel horrible about what happened.

That's not belting. That's a mix. Her passagio. If you want to hear this song belted, properly, you need to listen to Betty Buckley's version...

One thing remains, if this site stopped giving escorts 'the last word' in responding to reviews, I'd reconsider my own participation. HB and Daddy got that one exactly right. Client reviews won't bode well. They'll only create more work for the mods. It invites drama. No bueno. Escort reviews shouldn't be on the message board, unless previously vetted by staff. The point of everything should be to streamline and mechanize while keeping members happy with easy to grasp features.

You said it and now I can't not see it. If that's what the outcome for butt implants look like, I'd suggest others try an old fashioned, all-natural squats day in the gym. Followed by some running. Followed by more squats. You'll get the ass you desire.

This thread has the promise of becoming a classic if it keeps moving in the right direction.

I'm not at liberty to say. Waiting for subpoena from the state of New York in 3....2....1....

And then there's this... A masterclass in vocal shape, vocal placement and a huge range. I'm still bummed I never flew in to see her do King and I at Lincoln Center.

Personally, I only accept previous-year tax statements and pictures of your current pets.

Never leave a ho without it

My problem with her isn't that she lacks vocal runs or melisma, but that her voice lacks a solid, powerful belt. She sings 'pretty' and yes, she's a VERY technically correct singer, but it isn't best suited for the show stopping 11 o'clock, park-and-bark number. The original Mother in Ragtime was the incredible Marin Mazzie. You can find a million YouTube videos of her in the show, as well as the ton of other Broadway gigs she had through her career. She was gifted with great training and a massive, proper belt. The richness and power of her voice was unreal. I got to know her a bit towards the end of her life. She and her husband Jason. They would do a lot of fundraising concerts down in Key West with Terrence McNally.

Get out. Seriously. Don't come back to this sub-forum until you've listened to the OBC recording. You can also opt for the 1996 concept album, which is kinda fun because it includes songs that were cut from the Broadway opening ('Showbiz').

A show like AbFab could never be made today. People would shit a brick. It was brilliant writing. Saunders dialogue had a real sharp edge. Her cast delivered it perfectly. I like Lasso, but it panders to the worst Hallmark sensibilities in all of us. I can only enjoy so much feel-good until I want someone to club a baby seal.

She's technically proficient and a beautiful woman. As for flavor, she's Disney bland. No belt. No balls. No vocal girth. I once sat through her trying to sing 'Mother' in Ragtime. I never forgave her for that.

I want to like Ben Platt, but I don't. DEH was a chore to sit through. It was bland-by-Wildhorn standard and the story felt like it pandered constantly.

This. And when people think they're anonymous, they act like classless garbage. Vetted reviews remain the way to go. Hooboy and Daddy had it right.

There really needs to be an I Don't Give Two Shits merit badge.

You're making this punchline way too easy. MUST. RESIST. SMARTASS.

In an odd way, I do too. It's not exactly how I'd suggest he package it. There's no gray area, that's for sure.

Of course I read the post. Don't be daft. I never excused his behavior. I commented on yours (a bit), but mostly on others who made it personal and ugly, real quick. We both agree that there are a lot of guys who aren't cut out to be escorts. Let them figure it out. The market will tell them and they'll be gone. What I don't like is an anonymous dogpile, especially when said-escort isn't even here to defend himself or comment. It's not what you say, but how you say it: From the sensationalistic headline alone, I knew this wouldn't go well.

The main difference being that he paints in broad strokes and doesn't name-names. When you namecheck an escort and provide a link, it's a whole different ball game. As you can see, it encouraged others to climb out from under their bridge and make much worse comments. There's no place for this kind of teenage pile-on bullshit here. Being critical with cause is one thing. Being an asshole is quite another.

I'm getting whiplash from this constant vacillation.
