Some may recall that «black, blanc et beur» was something of a theme for 'les bleus' at the 1998 World Cup in France.

6-0 6-0, not what anyone wanted or hoped for.

The Legendary Dave, and yes he does that. I probably wasn't emotionally prepared for it, but it was an experience.

But does it end at Austin city limits?

That's a great photo of @BenjaminNicholas!

Thank you lines-people, thank you ball-kids, we're done with this topic, at least for now, thank you for playing. I had said my piece earlier, but not as a warning. For the last couple of pages we've been talking at or past each other, and discussing pet issues people have that may or may not impact on whether or why escorts ask for photos. We don't need some of the acrimony.

The screen appeared for me as well, and I'm not in the US, so likely site-wide, not targetted. In any case someone asked RM and they said it was an error, so 'is it a glitch?' is no longer a speculative answer as to what happened, it's not what happened. If in doubt apply Occam's Razor.

Fitness hack: reach your step goals daily by doing this one thing - forget something. Always be so hurried and rushed that you inevitably forget your phone, your wallet, your toddler…anything that will make you have to double back, thereby increasing your step count with ease! You’re welcome. Stolen from the Blue Sky account of RevDaniel, the vicar of Saint John's Dixie Anglican Church in Mississauga. He posts frequently about his church, his [some sort of curly furred dog] Chester, and his husband.

He meant 'piece'. He certainly didn't mean 'peace'. say one's piece give one's opinion or make a prepared statement. "I've said my piece, it's up to you"

So, back to discussing providers asking clients for a photograph, and whether clients should respond to such requests, or indeed whether clients might send a photograph without being asked.

Use it, it's not as if it will have spoiled (as in be dangerous). The worst thing would be if it were tasteless. You may need to use more than you would if it were fresh. If it's horrible you can tip it down the sink.

I wondered when (or if) he' be back! Now I know! And it's his old ad revived, not a new one, so his history (at least as recorded there) is still there for us to read.

At least he didn't say that the site had slandered him!

He currently claims to be in Sydney, asking only $AU500 per hour.

'Insecure' is not the first word to come to mind. Sometimes allow people to say what they want without second guessing what they mean or their motives, perhaps? Or read other things they have written about themselves.

Indeed there is!

'Only', lol.

You won't see them (on RentMen at least) if you are in the US unless you use a VPN and set you location abroad.

I think @Ali Gator was making a more general case, talking about bigger businesses and corporations that are monopolies or can otherwise ignore customer opinions about their service rather than sole traders (like escorts) who are in competition for theirs. Something of a digression from the subject of the thread. For those bigger businesses, and even for small businesses with at local monopoly, that people see as essential, it's not too difficult to succeed while treating customers with relative contempt. Escorts, as a discretionary service, don't have that freedom to ignore what customers want, but they are also able to set limits to what they will do. 'The customer is always right' has always had the 'T&C apply' caveat. We should perhaps set aside further discussion of customer relations unless the point being made can be linked to this line of business.

Have you left a review of your performance on their web site yet?

Some people have a stronger aversion to the merchant, or to the modes of production than to the innate properties of the things they buy, and that may be the source of their discomfort with their purchase.

I wouldn't leave things on the stove all week, but I'm not careful about putting things in the fridge straight away, I'll leave a stew on the stove or counter overnight before I put the whole saucepan in the fridge or put the food in tubs to store there, or freeze. I also only follow the intent of the 'don't refreeze' rule. Things can only remain safe for X amount of time out of the freezer, but if you take it out of the freezer for one day, that's only one of the days in the 'X'. I also happily refreeze the unused portion of a tub of food that I've reheated after thawing. I am careful with rice, though, freeze straight away, and if I thaw it and reheat (which with a rice cooker is most of the time), any left overs go back in the freezer pronto. Oh, and at any given time I'll have jasmine, basmati and medium grain rice in the freezer.

Talking to someone else when you're in the store in front of them?

With the enormous caveat that I'm a client, so I don't know how a provider might see contacting them in those circumstances, and not all providers might have the same opinion, I agree with @jackcali that it wouldn't be rude. I would use RM messenger rather than a phone number I had saved, as they use RM only for their business, and I couldn't be sure that was the case with a phone number. And yes, only one message. Consider also that freezing an ad is a deliberate step they've taken, but 'expired' could be either deliberate or accidental.
