  1. Personally i don't mind most tattoos, as long as the artwork is good. The trend of long passages of text is weird in my opinion, but if it isn't obtrusive I can ignore it. The exception for me is when they're on the neck or face, it's too off-putting.
  2. I wonder if he has a 10"..... skillet.
  3. Even in this day of GPS wayfinding, some people are hopelessly directionally challenged. Still, if you can get to the right place, almost everyone can find the floor based on the room number. I think some common mistakes people make is referring to hotels by the brand, not realizing that there might be some similarly named properties in the area. For example, there's a Atlanta Marriott Buckhead and a JW Mariott Buckhead in close proximity, I'm sure people end up at the wrong property frequently. Also, I think people who aren't used to driving and parking in a given city underestimate the time needed to find a spot near their destination. They get directions to the building and then try to circle around the block trying to find parking, throw in some one way streets or detours and they end up a few blocks off course.
  4. The face that dried a thousand vaginas...
  5. Refer to ISO standard ISO/JO 12X8.69.
  6. I remember seeing full reviews when it was for "online" services instead of meeting. Maybe that's what happened here since it doesn't show the other things usually in the reviews "ambiance, would meet again, etc".
  7. Also, consider how the loss of Daddy's site has changed the landscape. People used to read the site daily for the latest reviews and other items he'd post, and that encouraged a lot of traffic into the forums. After the hectic migration to CoM, there are probably far fewer providers who are aware of this site. That may change over time, but for those that do the main benefit is general diversion instead of anything boosting their business.
  8. RM is supposed to show a "in X days" indication when someone has put a city in their future travel locations. I don't think a lot of guys notice it, though.
  9. As noted, webforums are a bit old-fashioned. Also, it's a bit dicey for providers to engage a forum like this. There's a few members that get antagonistic with providers who advocate for themselves and interacting with them at length can only hurt the provider's own image. A few guys like Juan Vancouver could do it well, but for many there's more risk than benefit.
  10. Changing a well trademarked logo design to something that can't be registered as a trademark lifted from another source (possibly without any compensation to the originator) seems exactly like the genious level business marketing we've come to expect from Mr. Musk.
  11. "There's 206 bones in your body, want one more?" "Tomorrow there's gonna be only seven planets left, because tonight I'm destroying Uranus."
  12. I enjoyed the first season. I'm kind of a sucker for shows set in Atlanta, especially when they use the local locations well. Seeing the Silver Skillet and Colonnade show up was fun for me personally. And nobody ever called the Perimeter "the 285" which is a cardinal sin in my book. The "defective detective" trope is a bit overdone, but they use his backstory as a product of abuse in the foster care system to good effect. The dynamic with his cop girlfriend also being a product of the system was well done. Sadly some of the episodes were frustratingly poorly executed. The episode with the software company conspiracy stands out as particularly bad, especially because the resolution had no implications outside of that episode. They also had a couple big thematic swings that fell short. The cold case episode where the murder of a black family was covered up by the local police could have been a centerpiece for the season. It was arranged too soon in the season, and it seems the story was trying to take a jim crow era crime story from the 60s but pull it into the 90s to allow for the main plot to take place today, leading to some jarringly anachronistic plot points. Overall, I liked it. It probably shouldn't have been a network series, given the limitations they impose. Hopefully, if it is still renewed for another season after the writers strike, they will have a chance to mature the writing a bit better. Still it's worth a watch.
  13. Just have a box of Francia's finest from the Ralph's for their poolside imbibing. If they want something else then they shouldn't show up empty handed.
  14. I never engage such guys personally, but I don't recall ever seing the guys promoting themselves for muscle-worship ever charging less than the "full service" guys. If anything, the worship-only guys seem to be ego driven to charge a premium for their time.
  15. It depends on the person and how they get themselves involved in the business. Obviously some get into sex working under less than ideal circumstances, where they are coerced or feel they do not have other options. Others do it as part of a party lifestyle that can be self-destructive over time. The internet has allowed for guys doing sex work to engage more independently and on more favorable terms, so many can do so without negative consequences to their private lives or careers. Obviously you've been on this site long enough to see where guys have done well and others who have had problems. A lot of the providers interacting here know how keep their business life sustainable without being traumatized.
  16. Just because you, in your fairly arrogant opinion, can't imagine it, doesn't mean it doesn't can't exist. There is one operating in Saint-Eustache since 1971. Like many of the drive-ins that existed in my childhood, it also doubles as a flea market. There are several surviving drive-in theaters or cine-parcs across Quebec, not just this one.

  17. Speaking for those two lakes upstream, could you try to keep the smoke on your side of the border? Or at the very least make it maple syrup scented?
  18. I don't get the "confusion" over this use of they/them. In my work, I often correspond with production and other colleagues overseas, where the names are not obviously gendered for Westerners. They/them is perfectly gramattical in this context and intelligible by everyone in the conversation without having to go into gender inquiries. Honestly, many Asian languages do not have gendered pronouns, so they often make errors translating into English. For example: "Ngoc Quan is preparing the PPAP documents, they will send it to me by week's end. "Nakayama-san requested that I send them a presentation for the Penske account last week." Using they/them for non-binary people is no different in my understanding than using it in cases where their gender is not specified or unknown.
  19. Not confused at all. They/them/their have been used in a singular gender indefinite sense since Shakespeare. Honestly I prefer that over newly constructed pronouns.
  20. I wouldn't mind such a subforum. I haven't picked up Diablo 4 yet, but I did recently plow through Jedi: Survivor (RIP Rick the Door Technician). Mostly Xbox console here, some retro gaming, but need set up a new rig for that.
  21. The impeccable George has had his account deleted and his history purged. I wonder what led to his flouncing.
  22. There is a pattern of new posters that join up and respond to old threads with some generic sounding response. These responses will often end up with an embedded link to some shady site tangentially related to the topic (for example a thread on crypto might get a link to some third rate exchange, or recently a thread on social media earned a link to a site selling reddit and twitter accounts). The poster will sometimes post something generic once or twice before finally dropping their link, but This spam approach is weird to me because I don't see an obvious means of getting paid for posting these links (no apparent means of tracking when the links are clicked), and these posts appear to be human generated (not obvoiusly written by an AI). I don't get the how these spammers get enough traffic to make the effort worthwhile. Seeing as there is this pattern, is there any way of curtailing or blocking this behavoir? Maybe something that requires admin approval for new accounts making posts with hyperlinks?
  23. Sriracha sauce maker Huy Fong Foods says their production has been hit again by poor chili pepper harvests. They blame poor weather conditions have hit their suppliers hard. They have not been able to produce enough to keep retailers supplied, leaving consumers with the choice of buying knock-off cock sauce or paying scalpers online exorbitant prices, as much as $60/bottle, for the real thing. A nation, begging on it's knees, must wait even longer to have real Hot Cock Sauce in its mouth once again!
