  1. A person's actions can be "welcoming," "pleasant," or treat a customer well because the person is obsequious, desperate for money, operating from a "script", gritting their teeth to play a role, a decent actor, or even a sociopath -- all of those are personality traits or personal motivations/qualities that simply don't include being kind. Kindness includes a sense of the person's motivation and ability to connect with another as experienced by the other person.. [But we all need to be careful, the biggest sociopaths can be great actors and easily convince someone their motivations are pure and admirable. 😉 ]

    I prefer that Rentmen doesn't help them at all. That helps me see who is serious about things in their ads and if they have looked at their competition with some thought and have truly evaluated their own strengths and weaknesses and interests--versus someone who naively just took a couple of minutes and filled out a few things out without any thought.
  3. Or maybe their creative writing is even better than your acting. 😉
  4. Clarification please: Is GunnarNJ now InkedAlpha??? Thanks!

    But it's very, very common for some people to tell other people that their fetishes are completely all wrong, if not completely uncommon.
  6. I had not known before your post about where he stood in the afaik hierarchy. Information is power. 😉
  7. And some that do, dint.
  8. So are you suggesting that it would have been preferable if LookingAround had voiced his comment it in the third person as a statement by a random generic person representing the heartfelt honesty of Middle America and had written something more like this: "I was sitting in a coffee shop, and I happened to have my screen open to your statement. A couple not known to me happened to see it. The wife of the couple said to her husband, 'Honey, did you see that man's comments? How close-minded that lady at the car rental place sounds. I wish people would just stop yucking other people's yums.' I could not help but laugh at her comment. "
  9. So, if Starlight77 wants someone he kisses are you suggesting he go see...a barber instead of a provider??? 😉 Even for some of us who do love to fuck, a provider who doesn't kiss WELL is a complete non-contender.
  10. I completely and totally agree with John above that worrying about being videotaped by a third party in either a hotel or an AirBNB is so slim to be not worthy of too much consideration! But if anyone wants to torture themselves with the fact it has indeed happened and needs fuel for their paranoia, here's a fairly well know article by Gay Talese in the New Yorker that creeps even someone like me out, "The Voyeur's Hotel" https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/04/11/gay-talese-the-voyeurs-motel "Gerald Foos bought a motel in order to watch his guests having sex. He saw a lot more than that."
  11. Good catch: Maybe or maybe not a complete fake....but given the discrepancies flagged by others above, it does not inspire confidence, so on that alone I'd search out someone else who was more reliable and who actually knew how tall they were.
  12. Thanks...and that's exactly why I originally asked where is everyone finding their data! Where do you find the 5% number? On the U.S. Department of Labor "Inflation Calculator" it leads to the 18% from 1/2019 to 10/2022 shown above -- and then links to "How to Use the Consumer Price Index for Escalation" https://www.dol.gov/general/topic/statistics/inflation . Is the Department of Labor using the wrong figure--or are greedy companies just ignoring the facts?
  13. Where do people get their data? I use https://www.bls.gov/data/inflation_calculator.htm. It states 18%, but I'd be interested to know where other people get their updates to make sure there aren't "alternative truths."

    Agree! That's a very good retort. Or the best of both worlds: When they reply: "One,"reply "omg." 😉

    That's going to be my reply from now on. 😉
  16. If VictorXX had actually met him he would have encoded his post using the members' secret decoder ring, ergo he never met Dean. And everyone who hasn't met Dean has a secret handshake which kcx2 hasn't used...at least not yet. Although I have never said this before about QAnon, I am going with their official position concerning Dean and his supporters.
  17. ???Prescription meds for what? If someone is 21 and takes a "lot of" prescription meds because they are survivors of childhood cancer/organ transplant/HIVAIDS/congenital illnesses/etc. (and even for crippling anxiety), I say wow they're lucky to live in a time when their life can be extended and its quality improved through modern medicine. I know many people my age (and younger!) who were not supposed to live as long as they have so far. Not all prescription meds for younger people are for syndromes "as advertised on TV." I have also known "grandmas" and grandpas who could have benefited from more medication than they were taking due to a combination of poor communication of symptoms and possible treatment plans with physiscians who might not know about the latest treatments...but that's for another post.
  18. LOL. I spent a minute wondering what in the world is wrong with the word "errant"? Or maybe "Nathan"? Or is it the way the two words fit together and spelled something else unexpectedly? Or something else...? Only then I realized what you might be concerned with! 😉 So my answer is NO! From this queer to your ear: there is great power in reclaiming the words that others use to shame us!
  19. And when he logs onto Porhhub, he only reads the articles. 😉
  20. Or might have to do with that he saw the movie??? 😉
