  1. There’s a reason the publication is called Nylon: a lightweight synthetic polymer.
  2. Reverse cowgirl?
  3. Oh, I dunno. A reverse cowboy would have added a certain "something."
  4. Met him once at a party. Totally obnoxious.
  5. Thanks for clarifying.
  6. You need to tell the mystery escort something very clearly: “Lie down and shut up.”
  7. The Merchant-Ivory relationship, despite the article’s sensationalist headline, is a classic example of “an open secret.” Everyone knew, and no one officially said a word. Very Liberace. This was great to read: “When Luca says he never thought of putting nudity in, that is totally untrue,” says Ivory. “He sat in this very room where I am sitting now, talking about how he would do it, so when he says that it was a conscious aesthetic decision not to – well, that’s just bullshit.” It’s also a clear example of why Luca didn’t get a best director nomination, despite other successful aspects of the movie. Pulling punches at a critical moment is bad direction. As one critic said of the initial sex scene where, fearing nudity, the camera pulled away and scanned out the window to a tree: “It would be hilarious if it weren’t so aggravating.”
  8. Neocon? He was six when his peeps beat the drum for the invasion of Iraq, one of the worst foreign policy disasters in American history and one from which we still suffer, and he admits that’s his political position now. Run!
  9. The better term is probably gender fluid. It doesn’t have the negative connotation that comes with ‘effeminate.’
  10. The only confusing element in the otherwise very funny debut was the unanswered mystery of the family’s economic stress. In the final season of the original show, Roseanne won the lottery and the Conners were suddenly very rich. The conceit pretty much wrecked everything that made the prior eight seasons so great, so I stopped watching. But what happened to all that money? In the reboot debut, I loved the opening bit in bed about Dan being dead, which wittily dispatched the original show having killed off the character. Did I miss something about vanished lottery millions? Did they go away by the end of the 9th season, which I didn’t watch? A mystery.
  11. Flash floods. http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/2017/08/03/electrical-storm-palm-springs-911-down/
  12. Some folks who like sweeping, scolding declarations need to learn about the Google. :D
  13. Maybe he means he’s been escorting for 30 years. Experience and skil.
  14. There's something wrong about eating chicken with an egg. Too Manson-and-Sharon-Tate.
  15. I live mostly in LA, so it’s pretty much on lots of Mexican menus around town...except at my very favorite place, Mercado. But they have something for brunch that won’t likely be found anywhere, including IHOP, because they made it up: Rompope French toast. Rompope is not something I like to drink, but man it makes a heckuva French toast batter. And who can argue with chile-infused agave syrup?
  16. Crepes are best with butter, sprinkled with sugar, and rolled up like an empty burrito. And no chicken.
  17. If black escorts are indeed retiring at record levels, @latbear4blk will have a coronary.
  18. Roscoe’s is much older than that. Been around for nearly 50 years. (And yes, chicken & waffles is soul food.) And I love me some machaca, too. Mmmm.
  19. Man you are lazy. https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/felipe-in-la.125059/
  20. Sen. John Kennedy, Louisiana loon, tweeted “I will be filing a bill tomorrow that will prohibit airlines from putting animals in overhead bins. Violators will face significant fines. Pets are family.” Sen. Kennedy opposes all firearms restrictions. Nice FU to dead Parkland kids.
  21. Hawking enjoyed running over the toes of people he didn’t like with his wheelchair. So in 1976, when Hawking was invited to attend Prince Charles’s induction into the Royal Society, he gave him the business. “The prince was intrigued by Hawking’s wheelchair, and Hawking, twirling it around to demonstrate its capabilities, carelessly ran over Prince Charles’s toes,” according to the biography Stephen Hawking: An Unfettered Mind. “One of Hawking’s regrets in life was not having an opportunity to run over Margaret Thatcher’s toes.” More reasons to mourn his passing.

  23. Word!
  24. Bari Weiss is a digital stain. Ugh.
  25. Ding! Ding! Ding! Yes, it was Edy Williams (not Head or Adams!), Queen of the Red Carpet befor the carpet became a fashion thing.
