  1. This Yellow Line? What’s so complicated?
  2. I know, I just prayed for and received an offer with photo of a large fallopian tube, including it’s prospective placement, that came in a Manila envelope.
  3. That’s cute and clever. Do you have a link to this so-called autocorectal app? Or does one simply wander around with something prominent in one’s pocket?
  4. Anybody else care to interpret?
  5. I think it’s if you like the haircut just marry the barber and you’ll be at home swivelling on him with no booking necessary, not stuck in a shop chair where harassment is inevitable while in full view of the street where cops are chasing down local trade and exiling them because the cops don’t want competition.
  6. 3 on 1: a foursome gang bang? Now that will jar you awake!
  7. You’re picking them off at bible study now? Respect.
  8. $50, for java that came out of an animal’s arsehole, Mr Dinkin? Now those are what I call parasitic prices. Stop dinkin’ me around.
  9. Goddam it to hell these lazy-ass ‘scorts! Didn’t he complete the seminar series? Do we have to be Dr Ruth at all times? First PowerPoint bullet: Nothing needed by a punter is too idiosyncratic. A subsequent bullet down the list: His tongue down your throat is the key to unlocking your hole. A bullet somewhere further down the list: If his tongue down your throat seals the deal in advance, then a similar cause-effect phenomenon applies to the aforementioned preceding bullet; kissing fucking can be choreographically parallel as well as sequential, obligatory for size coping. A simple cue should be sufficient if kissing a manifest precedent. The apparent temerity of seeking a follow-up attempt may have reflected a cry for help requiring a teachable moment review. Notwithstanding disappointment, a few brief exchanges may have anchored the connection, if not for you in another valiant try, for all the others with shy sphincters potentially responsive to duelling tongues, the vast contingent of bottoms for whom a mere peck on the cheek won’t get the pecker in. 😉
  10. If you don’t log in all the time to view content but you want to see this report, you would log in for access: Hotspots subforum.
  11. My sense is that it is an odd way to assert representation unless story time readers as a whole are a broadly heterogeneous set of people. I am not sure if the dust up is that the cross gender impersonation subgroup is aiming for a niche role that supplants alternative representations or they are simply angling for integrative opportunity equity. I am also of the view that the written word need not be more dramatically emphasized when rendered aloud and that a normal cadence of speech closer to the internalization of a child’s visual story reading allows what the author chose to write to take the lead role. I probably would have approached my first personal read of a Bobbsey Twins novel differently had my initial experience of a different novel in the series been that of a drag performer reading it all aloud. I am not sure, however, what would have been value-added about it. We read, in contrast to ostentatiously styled auditory storytelling, essentially deadpan-ish and enjoy it as much. Whatever tonal variations a child engrossed in a book projects onto the text is conferred sufficiently by regular speech patterns around them.
  12. As much a nonstarter as ever. It can be equally argued that homosexual men are the same as everybody else except for what they do in bed, and are different from everybody else except for what they do in bed. The apparent contradiction is exogenously rooted, social construction continua wherein ideological positions and various constituencies of societal attitude are often mutually antithetical, and are not for us to resolve. This is similar to the polarized systems notion of equipotentiality, a grouping of the very same things leading to different outcomes with each outcome iteration, versus equifinality, a grouping of entirely different things leading to the same outcome with each outcome iteration. Homosexual men are only required to try to endure the range of absurdist notions about us that are put before us. This is nothing new and the changing sources and dynamics are not necessarily relevant. This reality eludes any meaningful potential for cogently stationing ourselves within the evolving rhetoric on fluidity. That narrative is more complex and simply superimposed on what has always been unresolvable, one example not the least of which is the nature-nurture dialectic. It helps to explain the inane notion that homosexual men subvert their true (opposite) biological gender by virtue of same-sex attraction. We are not in for a bat-crap crazy ride any nuttier than the carnival has always been. Only the total landscape of additional wannabe ringmasters, players, and the hats they wear may appear to have changed. The idea of homeostasis applies to homosexual men. It is a patent feature, well beyond an idea. The central defining characteristic, a variation of the biological reproductive imperative, absent the procreative component, has been an extremely longstanding constant. If postmodern queer theory aims to alter this particular unique phenomenon, good luck to its proponents. Of course it remains imperative to maintain and exhibit empathic attunement with the full range of collectives that face oppression, while not necessarily getting absorbed into an amorphous undifferentiated mass of activism. Everybody is equal. Nobody is the same.
  13. I get it. I just looked at my apartment cost in the area I booked a while ago for a trip later in the year and for the first time I converted it: 1400 baht.
  14. It’s always only rectal exam season on this message board. (Sorry, it was just there … I’ll let myself out.)
  15. So rude … maybe?? One never knows. Bottoms may be the ones that stick out most, taking all sorts of liberties. Your relentless teasing may be a bad influence on etiquette. 😉
  16. What is comparatively lacking on this board, through nobody’s fault, is an extensive and robust sub-forum geared to providers. That can be accessed via a website named ‘company of men [dot] org’. No harm in being aware of options and determining the best fit, or straddling both.
  17. It was neither necessary nor rude, so half right. No shortage of throwaway comments entered by many of our peers. I don’t apologize for others’ lack of sense of humour. You unwittingly set up a follow-up based on a Mercutio line, a feline line, like low hanging fruit. No fault there but my riffing on it wasn’t obnoxious simply because you’re grousing about it. If it didn’t land, then fine, it wasn’t the cat’s meow and all fours could be a myth. Tough audience; one moves on. That said, I’m glad you have survived your many visits and have your own autonomous way of processing the one mishap you endured by letting the accounting of it all hang out, in fact, several times if I’m not mistaken. No harm no foul there. It’s a reasonable tripadvisor input and the reader can take or leave the vicissitudes of travel, the heeding you may think is obligatory to share. I do wonder, though, how it serves the readership in terms of the assortative aspect you implied, how to make sense of a comparator tale of two cities. Nobody at all is spared an eventual fate worse than a cringeworthy robbery. In truth, The Bard was all over that, inn’t? So hang in there, de-center, not everything is about you. Gallows humour is not a rarity or verboten on this board. Nor is the pressing need to control the narrative regarding another member’s MO, which by the way I would be inclined, in fact, to decipher as myopically rude.
  18. That really clears up the destination decision-making. Rodolfo couldn’t have expressed it better. 😀 Anybody else finding migration patterns migraine inducing? One-stop Barcelona is beginning to look a lot like Xmas.
  19. I have arranged the safety net a few ways, until my repeat visits eventually resulted in establishing solid connections with hosts of a given destination. I occasionally double booked a second inexpensive Airbnb unit so as to avoid getting stranded, albeit unlikely, but that backup only 3 days to enable reorganizing. It happened once due to a host failing to show, as in to err is human, extremely embarrassed and apologetic. The charge was naturally reversed. You need to pay attention to exorbitant cleaning fees for short stays, as some hosts wish to dissuade guests from making brief bookings that may block longer stays. At that juncture when you are actually there some prospective hosts hungry for business will even show you the place in person before commitment, in the event the backup place is merely a sheltered base that spared you homelessness on arrival. In my case the mishap was serendipitous because the 3rd place, the one subsequent to the back-up, turned out to be a gem and I have lodged there for months at a time ever since. I have found these infrequent hassles to be more inconvenient than costly but some people regard any unexpected expense as a stick-up at knifepoint. On balance, particularly for longer stays, Airbnb options have been both cost-saving and better fitting in terms of daily living. Alternatively, a hotel room prebooked for one night but retained, not cancelled, in the event that the Airbnb is not formally cancelled but check-in turns out to be a nonstarter. Again, this is more apt for first-timers content with trading off some cash for piece of mind related to a secure arrival. Hotels don’t fuss about single-night bookings and the wifi quality may facilitate the task of rebooking an Airbnb in the same city. If you have satisfactory host communication right before the threshold of hotel backup cancellation, the prospect of your Airbnb booking fruition is good. Crickets would be the red flag. I realize it may sound exhausting without even yet touching on sex tourism privileges where you shit shave shower. LOL
  20. The closest you can get to a forecast is by communicating with the host ahead of time. But there are 2 levels of entertaining. One is an overnight guest; the other is a briefer visit by your guest. This difference calls for a different kind of inquiry on your part. You can ask whether you are permitted to have an overnight guest that is not on your booking. That may trigger the more stringent requirement of a formal registration, depending on the house rules. I certainly would not expect that I could have a few different guys sleep over during a trip. It is unlikely that you would be able to produce evidence to a concierge/security that a host endorses a free-for-all type of entertaining. Your capacity to hold a host to their word would be reduced because the host may not fully grasp your ask, and is not in charge of a premise’s overall security. My experience is limited because I sleep alone. One may also have a favourite place to book repeatedly and not wish to jeopardize a host’s receptivity to subsequent bookings, in the event that your sex tourism agenda is surmised. If you only plan the prerogative of a short visit by a local “friend” from time to time I would frame the inquiry very differently. Simply state that you have no plans for a group party but that you may want to have a friend in for a drink. Most hosts would likely be reluctant to restrict such an option. Explicitly ask if this type of light entertaining requires any formal step. Most hosts support the idea that, in contrast to a hotel, your stay is your home away from home. Naturally, they would also have likely scanned reviews about you, as a basis for trusting the innocuous and respectful nature of your use of previous bookings, but you may not have any precedents as a novel platform user. As one host put it to me regarding a visit of a few weeks, I am considered as a home renter and the conventional landlord-tenant terms of reference apply in spite of the platform intermediary role. This messaging was spontaneous, not at all connected to an inquiry on my part about 3rd party visitors I might invite. However, make sure that you record the mutual understanding of what is acceptable, eg screenshot of the internal messaging component of the app, in case a concierge or guard challenges you. Of course once you have spirited your friend into the unit there is little to stop you from entertaining until the next day. Any reputation liability would depend on the lodgings infrastructure. However, I would suggest seeing him off the premises the next day. It is unlikely the visit would have been tracked unless there had been a formal signing in. Many places are gated at the street entrance both entering and leaving anyway and you may need to use a key or fob to let him out, or cue a concierge/security to release the barrier, or you may decide to both go out for breakfast. Of course be aware of the optics in terms of what you look like (age, etc) in relation to the total unspecified quantity of nephews, grandsons, etc that enjoy a beer up in your unit when local drinking holes are typically an option.
  21. But you are spread out one floor at a time I would think, in successive rotation. Every place has that one guy.
  22. As also expressed by many a presently skittish nervous kitty cat in Sampa.
  23. I wish some of them would discover rentmasseur, more a happy medium between explicit labour-defining ads for them and needing to second guess and sort for us. Most of them are thematically oriented to the salutary benefits of fitness, nutrition and pampering to begin with. They have more control over what can transpire on the table. Reviews therein tend to be very cryptic and a bit better support the avoidance of unfortunate commercial sex work stigmatization.
  24. Though I warrant the libidinal warranty never seems to expire, as many here will warningly attest, en route to the final stiffie. You may relate to this: once a slut, always … 😉
