Oh really? Mr. Diplomacy? Allow me to bring up the recent past.

Condescending and patronizing.

"Imagined slight." Heh.

Oh, no, that's not misogynistic at all.

We're still waiting on that "long list." Or do you just say things based on imaginary justification to back up your claims and hope no one calls you on it? I called you on it. The words came out of your mouth (figuratively speaking). I didn't force you to say them. Now I'm just asking you to back them up, or wear the brand that you're full of sh*t and will just throw out claims with absolutely no evidence to back them up, just so you can seem right.

I just saw the trick!
You are trying to make me justify to you my early appointment, but I am the customer, you know, the one with the money, therefore, I get to decide when I want to see you.
|
Oh, that's right, you did try. And failed. Pathetic attempt to dodge by accusing us of trying to "trick" you when you ran out of reasons at (kind of) two. Yes, asking someone to back up a claim they brought up in the first place is very "tricky."

Because you thought you were picking on a weakling who was going to let you be a jerk and try to make me look like a fool for your own amusement and an obsessive need to feel superior. Except I find people like you amusing. You say things that are so rude, arrogant, insulting, demeaning, and ridiculous, and then are honestly shocked when people bite back. I bit back, and you're upset that I won't learn my place. Deal with it.

Pointing fingers in the wrong direction, sweetie. So far, you are the only one that has concocted a claim he can't back up. There is no reason for a gentleman to demand the first appointment of the day other than the fact that he thinks she is (to put it politely) no longer "fresh" after she has seen someone. Asking for an EARLY appointment is not the same as demanding to be FIRST. We've been over this. But you chose a position without thinking it through and now you're desperate to be right, so you'll keep deflecting the hard questions and trying to discredit me whenever you get the chance.

I am very good at what I do and I enjoy it immensely, as I'm sure any of my wonderful clients would tell you. I simply don't suffer stupidity well. Which really is only a problem for you and WTF so far.

Perhaps it is time for you to consider that it is not we who are misunderstanding. Just a suggestion.

Really?! It is fascinating to me that you don't see how many decades behind the curve you are when it comes to seeing women as people. The fact that most of the things you have to say about women could easily be lines spoken in Mad Men should be a pretty big clue.

Once again, you are the only person that has proved they can't back up what they claim. No room to start accusing others of creating artificial arguments, I'm afraid.

Did you really just try to discredit his simple (and correct) math on the subject by comparing it to people who disbelieved extremely advanced astronomic equations that they couldn't possibly understand? Maybe the two are the same for you....

I assure you, it
was a legitimate request. You just choose not to believe so because you can't back up what you claim.

Perhaps you should stop seeing "girls" and try grown women for a change. If you can find any that will see you.

Science. Or what you might know as "vile magic." I really can't tell what your relationship with science might be. Doesn't seem to be a close one, at any rate.

Care to respond to her post?

Sure do. I probably wouldn't mind a lot of things that irk me now if my minimum was $1500.
She has a different business strategy and perspective. If you want to pay me $1500+ then I'm delighted to let you be the first and only of the day. But I only ask $400, so to make as much as her minimum, I have to work 4 hours. That might be two 2hr appointments, or four 1hr appointments. So, unless I only ever book dinner dates or overnights, not everyone can be the first of the day if I'm going to try to keep up with a $1500 minimum lady.
And somehow I doubt you and FG are seeing $1500 ladies on a regular basis, so she's not representative of the ladies YOU demand such special treatment from. I guarantee you there are things that irk her that probably don't bother me at all. It doesn't make my position or opinion on this topic any less valid.

WTF is actually more like the Eccie version of Ebola, but we are working urgently on a vaccine for this deadly virus.

I appreciate the warning and the concern, but I'm very familiar with WTF and his bitchiness. I am unthreatened. It's a SHMB, and nothing he says can actually harm me. I like to keep that in perspective.

That analogy doesn't work. If you requested a freshly cooked meal and then demanded that no one else had used the plate that day, whether it had been washed or not, the staff would laugh you out of the building. None of us are trying to serve you "reheated food." We will be fresh and clean when you arrive, or else you should write in your review that she was not and never see her again. We simply only have one plate on which to serve your food, and we keep it very fresh and sanitary. If you don't like that reality, then perhaps pay for play is not for you. You can't pay us to "rent" our vagina, and then get pissed that other people also get to rent it. You want one no one else touches? Put a ring on it and buy it. Otherwise, learn to share. And you are once again proving my position on the subject. Gents who request the first appointment absolutely mean that they think we're dirty and disgusting after that. Thanks for the assist, honey.
