Lord, the books I could write….. You are a wise man @Coolwave35.

Nor should they. I think it’s amazing when people think they can just move into community and be treated like a "local". That’s not how it works.

Trust the Duchess……

If the mountain won’t come to Mohammed….

Ohhh…it "opened" for me. grin

I don’t think many of us are planning to run for president anytime soon…..

It feels like cultural appropriation, but I believe the intentions are good. So….meh. I try not to get butt-hurt about things like flags, and save my energy for real issues.

He got tired of posting in this thread? Just a guess. grin

In other words…."yes".

Fun fact. GQ Italia got sued by the Galleria dell'Accademia di Firenze for the unlicensed use of that image of the Statue of David. And GQ lost. Don’t fuck with the Italians and their art!

Ummmm……no. There are plenty of studies showing the health benefits of circumcision. I’m not for it or against it, but I am in favor of facts. Do I it think it’s genital mutilation? Yes. Do I believe there are health benefits? Yes. Both of those statements can be true, no matter how much people on both sides of the argument wish they weren’t. On the "universal beauty" front, there are in fact attributes that humans find universally attractive in other humans. Again, I’m not advocating one way or the other. It’s not so much about "white western standards", hair color, or ethnicity, as it is about symmetry and perceived power. I love the rainbow and all its colors/flavors, but denying facts doesn’t make them untrue.

Ummmm…between the afternoon and 11pm? Just a guess. grin

Trust the whore with the graphs……

HS? I’d probably go $250. College? $1,000 Obviously, it’s a very personal decision though. I believe education (especially college) is incredibly important.

I’ve always answered this question with "no one". But yeah, maybe this one. grin

Keep looking. I’m a top. All of my long term relationships have been with men who are tops or have a strong preference for topping. I’ve put a lot of time and energy over the years into trying to "make it work", but as with all relationship issues, if you have to "make it work", it rarely does. Now as to why I always end up in long term relationships with other tops….ask my therapist.

There are "topics" in here?

LMAO. I’ve had the same thing happen. Another reason to leave feed back here gentlemen…..the life you save, may be your own.

No.

Honey…..you let a whore into the room with the expensive antique chairs? Your mother taught you better than that. "Antiques are for the husbands. IKEA is for the whores." This one’s on you.

Back to the topic at hand….ditch your "friend". She’s not a friend and I’d bet $1,000 that she doesn’t have Celiac disease. And I’m sorry, if you’re allergic to dogs….you don’t plan a trip where you’re staying in a house with a dog for 4 days. Insane.

Anytime someone tells me they’ve got celiac disease…I ask to see their serology and small bowel biopsy results. In reality, it’s a pretty rare disease. So far every request has been met with, "I never had the tests done but I have all the symptoms". Or better yet, "all my tests were negative but I know I have it". Yeah no, not good enough. Eat your pasta and stop whining. Mind you, I’m not saying celiac disease and gluten intolerance aren’t real, but there is a strong psychological component. Which came first the crazy brain or the crazy gut is had to tell. Personally I much prefer people to tell me "I don’t like gluten" or "gluten doesn’t agree with me". I’m cool with that. Don’t eat the pasta. But when people start making up diagnosis and/or diseases that they don’t have, I don’t have a lot tolerance. Not to mention, they’re muddying with the waters around the people who do have real biological problems
