MaybeMaybeNot

I went to a bar to try to meet platonic friends. I look over and this sexy guy, maybe 48, winks at me. We chat and realize we have a lot in common, and he is totally into my type. We spend the rest of the night passionately getting to know each other in the bar. We hang out one time after that, and he ghosts me, much to my dismay. During the pandemic, he chats me up online, not knowing its me. I reveal myself, and we have late night chats about our common interests and sexy stuff. Once the pandemic is over the hump, I track him down at the bar. At the end of the night, we are in his backseat, cuddling, and then after awhile, his mouth is around my dick. I shoot a big load, reload, and the second time, I shoot an even bigger load because he turns me on so much. Neither of us can host, and we have a repeat after a dinner in the dark parking lot of the restaurant I chose, which luckily closed early. We have an insane connection, but I am partnered, and I now realize he has a hard time with that. So, we can't even be just friends.

I saw Marilu Henner on tour. For future productions, I am always a fan of Broadway stars, so give me Sutton Foster, Patina Miller, Kara Lindsay, Laura Bell Bundy. Laura Bell Bundy would be incredible.

When I read reviews before going to my first NYC Adonis event, someone referenced being duped by a similar scheme, a dancer providing more than asked and demanding more. Now, whenever I go, I pay upfront and twice state how many dances I want. Then there was the time I ran out of money and my favorite dancer said to find him before I left and gave me about 4 dances without payment. That was a dream come true and a nice ego boost. I let him take the lead to make it about his needs, and we were both pleased.

If you are in the Los Angeles area, there are a couple of sex venues that maybe perhaps would rent out their spaces. I don't have a connection to them; it's just a "doesn't hurt to ask" thought.

To me, Daddy is simply an older man I find attractive. Think Lawson James, Dallas Steele, Ace Banner, Lance Charger.

I've seen it. It is incredible in every way.

That's how I would describe it.

It started as a TV show, and they didn't do enough to change it into a movie. The story felt cobbled together and confusing. The songs didn't do enough most of the time, and some of them could have been cut entirely. The jokes were frequently rehashing bits from the first movie or relied on characters getting slimed. The new characters had no character development. I was bored out of my mind, partially because it felt disjointed and I stopped caring.

I accidentally got tickets for a 3D showing. In most cases, I am not a fan of 3D. The issue here was the quality of the 3D, not the fact that it was 3D.

Saw the movie again today. I loved it. I don't recommend the 3D, which my entire family agreed was not done well.

I am curious if anyone else saw it. I loved the first one, but I thought this one was so so bad in almost every way. Curious what others thought.

In LA, everyone has roommates, family, or tennants living with them, so many, many can never host. It's an expensive place to live. But I was posting more as a joke than anything.

I live in Los Angeles. The Grindr horror story is always the same. You chat with a guy, you are both into it, and then you realize, neither of you can host.

That would be a crazy thing to say if someone had said it.

Lewis's response seems inapprpriate to me, but Lupone is quickly becoming a caricature of herself. Not signing a paper because it's a Playbill from a show that is too loud? Ridiculous.

I was watching that. It was a weird night of television. After rewatching it, it was clear that Girdusky was calling Hasan anti-semitic, not calling for his death. Not appropriate either way, but I couldn't help but wonder the back story on it. I don't know Hasan.

I don't think a show needs to be done the same way, but decisions should be made from the director's vision, which shouldn't be guided solely by how to do it the absolute cheapest way possible. I am glad you enjoy the Sweeny staging; it was likely staged the exact same for the tour. It was to me a case of the emperor had no clothes. Take away the hype, and what is left? Judy Kaye pouring blood into a bucket. Decisions should also be made following the playwright's intentions. In Oklahoma! (which the revival director seemed to even reinterpret that exclamation), changing it so Curly shoots Jud does not follow what the genius writers intended. Takng a character and using the text to find new meaning is an interpretation. Adding to it is a rewrite. I am not saying Sunset Boulevard isn't great. Clearly, Webber approves it (just like he did the Cats movie). But sometimes, remove a show from the hype, and people might realize the emperor has no clothes.

I generally find that if something looks cheap but is packaged as experimental, it plays well in NYC but fizzles on tour once the hype has disippated, like the ridiculous tour of Sweeny Todd with Judy Kaye pouring a bucket of blood or the Oklahoma! tour that reportedly had large swaths of audiences walking out mid-show. I am not saying this Sunset Boulebard isn't brilliant; I am saying I am skeptical based on the concept. I am holding out for a Mame revival with four actors playing all roles with puppets and public doman still life painting as projections for sets. Imagine a bowl of fruit when Mame speaks of life being a banquet. Then, when Beau dies, they can use a dead phaesant. So deep. I'm getting chills already.

I was joking! But I am glad for any chance to see a baby Raven gif.

Wow. Not as healthy as I would have thought. But in all seriousness, I think I will skip trying this one.

Perhaps, but that wasn't the case that night. But perhaps the situation has been fixed.

So I am not alone. The last few years, I have seen a number of the Best Musical Tony winners that left me scratching my head and wishing I had stayed at home (but this was worth seeing for Carolee Carmello). After I posted, I realized how I should have described it. KA was trying ti be deep and heartfelt like Next to Normal, but it is more like a Saturday morning cartoon than a Tennessee Williams play.

I had someone try this with me too. The address led to a weird place, should have tipped me off before leaving my apartment.

Saw the tour and was curious what people thought. What a fantastic cast. Carolee Carmello is amazing, as always. But I thought the show itself was kind of stupid, like Dear Evan Hansen but with quirky music you don't need to listen to again. Would love to hear more people's thoughts on it.

Broadway cast recordings. It's not so much an intentional collection as something I enjoy listening to and own many of as a result.
