  1. My first Nespresso Virtuo did that and they replaced it. The replacement was fine. If you already have a Nespresso then my advice is to keep using it to brew Lungos.
  2. If you like flavored coffee drinks that contain more sugar than the entire state of Hawaii, then Dutch Bros is the place for you. I've never been there, but a colleague whose taste in coffee is similar to mine reports that their coffee is weak, flavorless, and bitter when it is not flavored. At home I have a Nespresso Virtuo and alternate between Costa Rica and Fortado for cups of coffee. I find their limited-edition and single-source espresso capsules to be very good. Their Decaffeinato Intenso is the best decaffeinated coffee you will ever drink. When I brew coffee at home, my bean of choice is Columbia and I use a French press.
  3. I've asked reviewers for feedback several times and they've always been very friendly and willing to share. Every time I've been asked for feedback (save for one time) I do the same. That one time I did not share feedback was on RM. The guy asking for feedback was a little creepy and rather aggressive. My reply was "thanks for reaching out but I prefer the details of appointments to remain private."

However, you can post links to video clips that are hosted on another site.

  5. Is this individual advertising as a personal trainer or an escort?
  6. Musclebound? Not seeing it in his pics.
  7. No, someone is using old pictures. When I hired him a couple of years ago he definitely looked 47. Not a bad massage, though.
  8. Elon Musk also proposed a high-speed transit tunnel for Chicago but it went nowhere. I'm guessing his desire to use self-driving cars instead of the rapid transit vehicles required for a large cities contributed to its demise.
  9. Looks like he is open to using Snapchat to verify himself, so he might be real.
  10. But he'll PNP with you! I'd say I am being facetious, as that is not a reason for recommending someone, but his ad does list PNP.

    David Cole?

    The DanielFox ad has remained the same while his David_Cole ad has used the following: David_Miller David_Stevens David_Taylar David_Evans Daniel_Scott Those are the ones I noticed. There could be more.
  12. Carson was the least cringeworthy of the bunch. Bachelor #1 clearly didn't understand that triathlon was being used metaphorically.

    I know this is bitchy, but "Luxe" and Hanes underwear seem mutually exclusive. (See pic #3)
  14. Because it is better than getting a "time out" upon reacting to something they said. More folks should use this feature, IMO. I suppose for the same reason my cat Linus peed on the old futon in my office. Nope. Like @purplekow, I will unignore someone to see if they have changed. Usually, they haven't and I block them again. PS: After I threw away the futon and replaced it with a sofa Linus stopped the inappropriate peeing.
  15. Yeah - they should be able to bill your HOA account.
  16. Not accepting cash or credit card is not a surprise, but an inability to charge your account at the HOA IS a surprise. We did that all the time for nominal amounts (think replacement common area keys, re-programming the call box, and our periodic parties and barbeques) when I was on the board of my HOA. I'm assuming this barbeque doesn't cost thousands of dollars per head.
  17. He previously advertised as MANLYSTUD (that ad is still up, actually) and was discussed in this thread. I hired him twice and enjoyed myself both times. Feel free to DM me for details.
  18. Vile doesn't even begin to describe him. Take a look-see at this. Pond scum, slime, and the American Association of Motherf***ers have all protested when their names were used to describe this creep.
  19. You are welcome. I was not taught that loan is never a verb and working in banking we use "loaned" all the time.
  20. According to Merriam-Webster, the use of "loan" as a verb entered the English language in the early 1300's. While you are correct that "lend" is a verb, "loan" is also a verb and has been for more than 700 years. Following is an excerpt about the history of the words: "It begins with Richard Grant White, a grammarian of the 19th century, who in his book Words and Their Uses, Past and Present declared that loan cannot be a verb at all, but must be a noun, because of its etymology: "The word is the past participle of the Anglo-Saxon verb lænan, to lend, and therefore of course means lent." Alas, poor White: loan is actually not the past participle of the Anglo-Saxon (aka Old English) verb lænan. Loan, both verb and noun, came into English from Old Norse. It turns out that the verb loan had fallen out of use in England during the 18th and 19th centuries in favor of lend. (Lend is the earlier word, dating back to about the 11th century, and comes from the Old English verb lænan.) But loan as a verb survived in American English, which hadn't kept pace with the changes to the language that were happening in British English. British English speakers noticed the verb and decried it as uncouth and provincial—it had to be if it was in the mouths of Americans. This dislike of the verb loan carried over into the late 1800s, though by the time White wrote his book in 1870, that dislike had become unhitched from British nationalism. White just happened to couch the generalized dislike in something that looked like scholarship. His prohibition on the verb loan spread far and wide, even after his terrible etymologizing was debunked, and persists to varying degrees today. Bryan Garner, in his 2016 Garner's Modern English Usage, Fourth Edition, writes that loan as a verb to refer to money "has long been considered permissible," but loan as a verb to refer to things is not as permissible. This in spite of the fact that the written record shows that loan has regularly been used to refer to things for almost 400 years now."
  21. @whatsthefuss, I suggest you ask your friend to sign up and post a question in the "Ask an Escort" section about how best to start an escort practice. However, they need to be careful not to violate the Forum rules against using the site to advertise without advance permission. In fact, as a new member you might want to are strongly advised review them too. They can be found here and by clicking the word "Guidelines" at the very bottom of every page.
  22. Let me start by saying I am not trying to be a smart-ass with what I am about to say. There's no reason to worry about worry. Stop worrying and find someone to hire! I think you mean "stereotypical." There is absolutely no "prototypical" client type. I started hiring when I was in my thirties because I had no time or patience for the bullshit associated with finding hookups. Ask some of the escorts who post here. They will tell you they see men of all ages, shapes, and sizes. I've never hired an escort with a friend and I don't think I would do so. I am not sure why having a friend along would take some of the pressure off. If your thought is the escort could be disappointed by you alone and having the friend along would satisfy the escort, just remember who is hiring whom and why. The escort is there for the client (you), not the other way around. That's not to say the client should behave poorly, treat the escort rudely, or do things that the escort does not want to do. BTW: there can be bullshit to be had when hiring. If/when that starts, move on. My advice to you is the following: Get a clear picture of what you want out of the playdate and find an escort who can help you get it. Get to the root of your concerns. Look at the escort listings and make a top three or four list. Ask members about the escorts you find attractive. Talk/text/email the escorts and explain what you are looking for, your experience level, and your concerns. MOST IMPORTANT: relax and let yourself have fun.
  23. One would think so... Might be time for him to re-think that strategy. Of course, he could be going after hot, sexy septua-, octo-, and nonagenarians. 🥰🥰
  24. There aren't a lot of guys who have his look (i.e. there's a limited supply) and if there are enough clients (i.e. more demand) he might be able to command a higher than average rate. Or not. At least he's putting it out there.
  25. Agree. A couple of other things jump out at me: The face in the tank top picture is so small that you can't tell whether it matches the other face pics. While the other face pics are of the same guy (you can tell by his right eyebrow) they appear to be f different vintages Notice there is no last login date. That's the Friendboy equivalent of an expired profile. All that plus the warning makes me say "pass. "
