Rants Raves and Stupid Shit in Seattle.

If things are out of my range I just say ok thanks.

That is the exact way one should handle it. Stick to your principles.

[Jimmysixxx7]

Quote your rate in the ad. If you are out of my price range, I quietly move on.

If I have to contact you for your rates, don't get bitchy when I say you are out of my price range, I am not trying to low ball. We just place different values on what we pay / accept for services.

Let's face it, most tattoos are incredibly tacking for the most part. There are some that are tasteful and I admit that I do like to see a girl with a full arm sleeve, because it's usually well thought-out.

Tattoos on the neck, thigh, face, chest. For me, it's a huge turn-off.

While we're on the subject of body modification; piercings. Septum, cheek, bridge of the nose, nipples, clit. Huge turn-offs.

Finally, ear loops are incredibly stupid.

It's hard for me to ever imagine taking people seriously with these modifications. It screams to me. Low-level IQ and low-level jobs or zex work for the rest of their lives.

Old man judgemental bullshit!! If they not hot stop paying to fuck them. Hahaha.

Gtfo boomer! Haha.

[Dog Hater]

I want sincere relevant responses, to the actual question.

I want to reiterate, I am not a dog person, but I have no ill will against dogs. I was 30 when I watched My Dog Skip, and I was crying even when Skip was having a hard time climbing on the bed. I cried my eyes out, after the movie ended.

I just don't like dog barks, dog slobber, poop bags, and dogs leaning out the window of cars and slobbering on my car. It breaks my heart to see dogs without homes, but I just don't want a dog myself.

I am on a real legit dating site. I tell the women, right from the get go, that I have only one major flaw as a human being, but it's a big one: I am not a dog person. I tell them that, I acknowledge that it eliminates me with a lot of great women.

I also list myself as being a cat lover, which I am. And, proud of it.

Cat women won't give me the time of day! There are women I Smile and Wink at, who are attractive, and not only do they not have to have a dog, but they have a cat! Yet, everyone of them closes me out.

That's not the biggest shock to me. Rather, so many dog women do not close me out! They read my profile, and yet they're still interested in me, to a degree. What is it? Is it "wanting something / somebody that you can't have?" I wonder if some dog women think, "I'll turn him around!" Or, "He'll love MY dog!

You figure, women who are cat lovers, find it so hard to find cat-loving men. Yet, I would love to settle down with them, have our human babies, and love our Fur Babies together, too. Yet, none of these cat women want anything to do with me.

You see, it would be easier for me to understand, if cat and dog women shoot me down, equally. Shouldn't the dog women shoot me down even more quickly?

What I'm asking all of you is, are cat women really of a different personality?

Is there even a chance, that these attractive cat-loving women, think that I'm lying about being a cat lover?

Into the hobby world, I saw a girl with dark brown hair and blue eyes, who initiated mutual rimming during our date. Her cat was in the living room. I told her that I love cats! She asked me, "Do you really like cats?" I said that I love cats! She said, "Do you really like cats?

Why are these cat-loving women so elusive, especially to a cat-loving man like me?

Equally, why don't these Dog women write me off at a higher rate? Why do they seem to hold out some sort of hope at some potential relationship with me?

If a woman has tats and is hot, then she would have been hotter without them. I realize they're not just for hookers, convicts and drunken sailors like when I was a kid, but still, they don't improve a person's appearance.

That said, it's a person's personal choice whether to get them or not.

[ScotchYoke]

I remember going to a provider's IC, and when I turned up, the house was a house I had put in an offer on to buy and was not selected. She was renting a room from the owner. The house was not as clean (obviously) as it was when I viewed it during the selling stage, and I don't think she or the owner cared that much to take good care of it. It was a bit strange, as you could imagine. A bit surreal for sure.

I am amazed by the different narratives based on the messaging you get, and social standards. I live in a free state. Everyone is free to mask or not, it's personal. No mandates on business, schools are mask free. Yes, there's a bit more disease, but not that much but everyone is happy, non judgmental, businesses are thriving, kids are happy and just as healthy as Washington kids. High school athletics did not miss a game. Long story short, life is normal. I'm vaxxed, but most of my friends are not. They've all gotten sick and recovered. I'm getting a Moderna booster after Christmas so I'm pro vax for older people and anti vax for under 30. My feeling is that the Democratic leaders are peddling fear to exercise power over their people and the news media peddles fear and drama to peddle their product. I feel bad how much damage it's done to the citizens of WA, my former home.

Which free state do you live in brotha?

I've been to AZ and Vegas and its lovely and booming.

They're like what COVID?? LOL.

[Blazer1979]

Yes, in 2020 the average age of someone who died of covid was 76. In 2021 that average age was 67.

On top of the survival rate, you have to keep in mind that quite a few survivors (between ten and thirty percent it seems) have long-term health problems. I personally know three people now who are unable to work because of long-term effects of covid. One of them is in his 40's and now needs supplemental oxygen from a cart he hauls around with him and walks with a cane.

And more germane to this forum, one of the more common long-term side effects for men is erectile dysfunction.

I'll take my chances with the vaccines and wearing a mask over running the risk of not being able to get it up.

[Michael1967]

I too am vaxxed, boosted and moderately concerned, but am pretty confident that if I contract the virus my symptoms will be mild. I plan to live my life without taking unnecessary risks: masking in public when indoors, being very selective in the hobby (I always am anyway), avoiding large indoor gatherings like sporting events and concerts. A healthy level of concern is smart, but if you've done what you can to protect yourself and those you care about, then excessively worrying isn't good for ones mental health.

My rant would be about the anti-vax crowd like my friends 40 yo daughter in law who has 'done her own research' and concluded the vaccine was developed too quickly to be safe. I wonder if the imminent Omicron tsunami has her re-thinking her position. One can only hope.

That's how I feel. I just want to do what I want to do. If it means that I have to get a vaccine, then so be it. Right now, I enjoy going to concerts, hanging out at bars, going to the gym, traveling internationally, as well as many other things. I have numerous friends that have lost their jobs, lost their business (ridiculous) and sit at home by themselves because they've got in their head that the vaccine is unsafe and will kill them. What's going to kill you is being fucking miserable every day and not enjoying the short amount of time that you have on this earth for some irrational fear of a vaccine.

This was pre covid, but still. Dropped by APV2 one Friday afternoon around 4:00 to see if there were any ladies or couples there by chance. Nope. I hung out for a few minutes, then a couple walked in. The lady was an attractive asian lady, kind of tall, maybe 40 ish, with a long dress or coat or something with lots of buttons down the front. She came over my way and undid some buttons, showing me her tits. Yes! I asked if they were going into the theater, they said no, that she has a favorite chair (in a large video booth). She went over and sat down. Soon I was on one side and another guy was on her other side, and she alternated sucking us. Then I asked if we could fuck, and 10 seconds later we were doing it in the booth. She felt great, hot and wet. After a few minutes I pulled out and came on her tits.

Big rave to this lady, I only regret not asking for her number. I'd love to see her again! Rant to the fact that this doesn't happen more often! I have a hard time going to a theater at 10:00 PM on a Saturday night. I wish more ladies / couples would drop by in the afternoons once in a while!

They might be more into to getting your number and letting you (and others) know when they're going out again. Her thing may be the randomness of the strangers though. You don't know if you don't ask.

[Marko Ramius]

I... but original covid had a 99.7% survival rate. Average age of someone who has died with covid in the us is in the mid 70's...
