  1. Oh, is that what equality between partners means?
  2. Is that you TR, looks so much like your avatar, lol!
  3. Sorry, it was the first thing I learnt in French, forgot you folks are more likely to have learnt Spanish (or no other language). 'My name is...' is, 'Je m'appelle...' [lit: 'I call myself']. So, 'Je m'appelle Gemma Pell.'
  4. As AirBnB won't say why they cancelled Lance's membership, we can only speculate. It's a presumption, but only that, that it was related to commercial use of the properties he might have hired, or that it was a more specific knowledge or suspicion as to what he might do. If I were sure it was related to Lance's gay escorting activities I would advocate boycotting AirBnB, but not only am I not sure, I really don't know at all. How they found, or suspected him to be in breach of their TOS, we'll never know. I can see the positive role the sharing economy plays in democratising things like accommodation and travel, but the companies facilitating these services need to be more transparent in how they operate.
  5. Got it. If I can't comment straight away shut the fuck up. Time zones are a thing, as set out in the 4am e-mail thread, not everyone is awake at the same time.
  6. Well, he was issuing a put down to a group he had just described himself as belonging to. Kinda shouts out as irony!
  7. David Pocock is a legend, social justice fighter, gay ally, all round good guy. http://www.davidpocock.com/davidpocock/ I had previously posted a link to his apology for an on-field infraction (third post down) in a rugby game.
  8. I'm guessing you'd look the part wherever it was!
  9. Good to see Australian country town sport featuring in the Sports Forum here. (Glen Innes NSW, pop 5173, founded 1852, elev 1062m)
  10. Best graph (graft for Steven) of the day!
  11. I think any public urinal that stops randoms pissing on people's front steps is a good idea.
  12. Pop-up urinals have been making appearances in Australia, as reflected in this article. Typically they are only available for use on Friday and Saturday nights. Despite what it says here they are being rolled out elsewhere in the country. https://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/wa/a/30839788/northbridge-gets-was-first-pop-up-urinal/
  13. This headline did not mean what I first thought it meant.
  14. Juan, I had always read these 'proof' requests as being methods to resolve doubt about the authenticity of an ad, not an 'every case' procedure. As such I always considered them unremarkable. I would be dismayed if there were people who seek to apply them to everyone they approach. Any combination of a consistent and clear advertising presence, good reviews, positive commentary in here or positive engagement with the forum should be enough to obviate the need for a specific photo. I completely understand your stated reaction to such a request.
  15. Surely that's ironic (even if it is in Louisiana, where I'm told English is not the first language)?
  16. I certainly wasn't saying it was a bad thing, quite the contrary!
  17. As much as we have chatted (or is that as much I have stalked you - no I didn't), I had formed no idea about how tall you were or how much you weighed. Not sure if it was just that I was not paying attention to that part of you, or if you hadn't stated it. Anyway, duly noted! (And in a good way!)
  18. Welcome to the forum, Jaxton (yes I know you posted a couple of times late last year). I've seen a few of your scenes and liked them.
