Yup, prophets have no honor in their own country.

Ironically, some prostitutes do provide “the girlfriend experience.” That’s an actual thing where the guy pays them to act as their date in public, go on romantic dinners, even cook, etc. The entire point is that he can pretend he’s not just some loser paying for sex. The sugar baby/daddy dynamic is another facet of…

Right. Ask them what’s “hot” and they will recite long, elaborate lists of whatever social media has deemed babeworthy that month. Ask them to tell you what they are actually attracted to and they stumble.

And it’s also just as rude and belittling to “value” a person for nothing but their looks as it is to be cruel to a person for the same reason.

And honestly? I don’t think I’ve ever met a truly rude, mean Good Looking Person. I’ve met some stunners in my time, downright breathtaking, and to a man/woman they were perfectly pleasant and lovely to be around.

I think you’re right.

And as I’ve said before, even if, by some gift of the gods, one of these men were presented with the latest version of “perfection” on a silver platter, that still wouldn’t make them happy. They could be handed a bikini model wearing nothing but oil and string and they’d be thrilled--for ten seconds. Then they’d start…

And when you DO tell somebody “your attitudes are shitty and your self-image is grossly flawed, that’s why women don’t want to date you,” it’s not like they listen. They get angry and rant about how they shouldn’t have to change and deserve to be valued for what they are, on and on.

Women aren’t given the outlet in our society to both hate and venerate our “flaws.” The closest most women come to this kind of rage-worship of our self-dissatisfaction are pro-eating disorder websites.

Hell, even in the original play (written, remember, as a comedy by a man performed for a male audience) the wives ask Lysistrata what to do if their husbands just flat out force them. She tells them not to fight back too hard so they don’t get hurt, but to be mean and nasty the whole time so the man feels gross and…

Karma Cow speaks for us all.

Okay, that’s just dumb. I can understand if they had some kind of bug or rodent infestation and wanted to keep food debris out of the office so you couldn’t eat at your desks at all, but who the hell cares about the KIND of food/type of meal?

I understand lunch as a term used to mean any kind of meal that wasn’t on the regular schedule but more filling than a snack. In Jane Eyre, when her boarding school sadist/housekeeper burns the students’ breakfast, the head of the place orders a “lunch” served around 11 am of bread and cheese. They have their “dinner”…

This is a very good point: lunch is usually the longest break in a working day, and taking it too early makes the post-lunch shift a desert to traverse with pain and slowness. 

All food should be breakfast food. Or Mexican food. Mexican breakfast food.

Just don’t be one of those assholes who call me whining “I can see people inside and the lights are on but the door’s LOCKED!”

It’s totally normal to eat something at 11 a.m.! The Brits even call it “elevenses.”

Sounds like he’s worked out the ‘perfect’ balance of ebophilia and can’t be arrested.

Man, everybody lost in that situation.
