Rental property near Agra businesses in the south. Those migrants gotta live somewhere. The Federal Government is never late with the rent.

I'm serious !! That place looks like half the crowd might keel over at any minute. I'm surprised there isn't a proper wheelchair ramp for them.

In my mere 5 decades on this planet I've seen multiple boom and bust sessions in the US economy. Each time it's the same result. Small businesses collapse and big businesses lap up the market share. If you think the ups and downs aren't rigged, you're not paying attention to the benefits for those with the most influence.

Every time I was past *the Monster* the men at the bar look like they could be my grandfather. ( I'm 51)

Which goes back to my original statement ..."you might have more success with a bit of local travel destinations."

Actually...the comparison between NYC and Charleston is vast. My wife and I drive out of town most every weekend and there are hundreds of interesting things to do just outside of NYC. There are multiple significant municipalities just beyond the city limits like Scarsdale and Huntington that are beautiful charming villages. Sadly Charleston for all it's beauty sits there alone as a destination. As far as being gay and living there... I imagine you'd be very happy in the company of your lover but somewhat lonely if you try to live the typical bar and club social life of the single urban gay man. I've considered retiring there myself but the lack of any culture surrounding the city always makes Charleston an impractical alternative.

Yup That map looks accurate.

Charleston is a lovely old town ..but sadly in the middle of nowhere. So you might have more success with a bit of local travel destinations.

You're in a recession. Maybe you meant wait until the DEPRESSION ?

It's totally fine......As they say: "doesn't hurt to ask.... but I do always wonder ...does ANYONE bother reading a profile before messaging ??

A pleasant looking young man for sure...but "hottest" ? 🤔 That's a rather subjective claim that he may not get a lot of votes for.

I gave up. Millennials think you're insane for expecting them to show up at 6:00 pm when you say 6:00 pm. When you question them, their answer is "nobody does that". ( In their age group..that may be true ). Very sad. I was always the guy who got to every meeting 10 minutes early because I always left extra time to get there.

Being on-time is sooo last century. 😆 Millennials never show up to anything on time. ( Not sure how old your "date" was...but if he's under 30, this kind of behavior is the new normal )

"Clearly" always requires reading. So time consuming, you know !! 😆 Like the dozens of messages I get on Grindr every week from men over 50 when my profile "clearly" states that I am only interested in under 30.

Yes. Which was widely remorseful for many New York foodies. Thankful they managed a reboot. We've celebrated many anniversary celebrations, birthdays and get-togethers at Gotham. Was one of the more sad losses from the long lasting pandemic shut-downs that we suffered here.

Very hot....but I think I would need an ACTUAL MASSAGE after being tossed around, turned upside down, and fucked on a kitchen counter !

Why do you keep trying to micromanage how I communicate? There's a block option if you don't like strong opinions. Telling me that I am "always so angry" is an example of extreme narcissism. You seem to believe I shouldn't have opinions because they aren't your own.

Which is more likely because the boys like their gaybohoods, more than they like fine dining. I and the wife are foodies and would rarely choose Chelsea as a recommended dining destination. But as mentioned above there are many great restaurants in New York that appeal to all matter of tastes and at all variety of price points. I would say Gotham and Wallse are two of our favorite destinations downtown. ( Where much of your better choices are found these days. ).

It was an answer to the question: "How would you know"?

Stop buying them. We rarely buy processed food at my house. I'm sure the once or twice a week we eat at a restaurant, we are consuming some. But also making choices there that are less likely to not be fresh. Americans eat like shit. They all die of cancer at a rate that coincides with the consumption of processed food. Just say no.

Is it ? I don't think most people would agree.

Because I was besties with Jim Carroll. I know more than you do about the scene. So you can take your condescending attitude and shove it.

Not sure the image of two dirty hippies shooting heroin entices me to spend time at a restaurant.

Murder She Wrote is my memory as well as Bed Knobs and Broomsticks from my childhood. *R.I.P.*

I tend to agree with you. There are many very fine restaurants in New York City that DON'T do all the abstract concept aesthetics of the Michelin Star expectations, that I enjoy far more ( at a significantly better price ).
