She's a stripper and not a hooker.

It took me quite a while to realize they spin. You're not alone.

Conversely, only one dancer ever gave me a holiday gift. Chocolate one year, a special photograph the next.

Sometimes. I think money just vanishes in their minds so I give VS gift cards.

Allman Brothers Santana Kansas I feel bad leaving out Clapton. Some of my favorite songs, but I guess missing longevity with one band. Buddy Guy? Albert King? Too pure blues when the question is specifically "rock". Black Sabbath? Blue Oyster Cult? Had to limit it to 3. (but see how I snuck them in anyw

It's a turn-off for me. That's when I don't mind the poor lighting in the club. Lap dances are fine. No kissing.

I've been to bad and good holiday parties. I never felt they were "Customer Appreciation" parties though. The lamer ones were just a normal night at the club but with free (mediocre) food. The better ones were "private" (buy a ticket in advance), full nude and open bar, sometimes in other venues with more room for private dances. Dances were never at a reduced price. Mileage was always YMMV. None of them was an orgy. In some cases it gave the girls a chance to dress up fancy (in which case they liked to take pictures). What would make it a great experience? Well, free sex would work. Short of that - yeah, open bar, full nude, run from early afternoon until after midnight (lots of girls to get to :-)), free/nearly free dances, rock and roll, decent free food. Make it the kind of party I never get invited to, but show me I belong :-)

"2. I’d also brighten up the lights and turn down the volume." I feel like 95% of us want the latter. Some the former as well. They say "if it's too loud, you're too old", and yeah, I am old. Still spend money.

There is no puzzle, there are simply false statements. 2+5=12 is simply false, everywhere, always. Yes, I understand the "solution", I'm saying it's bullshit to write false statements. If there is an unknown in the equation, show a placeholder for it.

I haven't been to most of those places, and I couldn't rank an entire state, but as for places I've been - Columbus, Ohio was utterly dead.

I'm shocked! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HMIyDf3gBoY

FYI, I haven't seen these issues in Canada. Who you ask for is who you get in my experience, and the reality is very close to the pictures. Nice, enlightened country :-)

The walk in from the parking lot? Not at all. But on those occasions when LDK happens I sometimes worry if there are any visible signs. Other times idgaf.

If you (generic) don't want to use bitcoin, then don't. No one is trying to make you. It's odd how many who don't like it feel the need to scream about it. For me it's a currency rather than an investment, so I try not to pay attention to the price. (But Dash actually works much better)

Fail (7) twice and there will be no more invitations. I can go into any regular night club and get ignored. In a location where (10) is impractical (low mileage city), even just a hand on the thigh can go a surprisingly long way toward making a sale. A dancer, being touched all the time, may not realize this.

My current favorite loves couples. The price is double, the man is going to be very well-behaved (I'm not saying always, but her experience so far), and she is happy to play with girls. This is a non-extras club nowhere near Tampa however, maybe it's different in an extras club.

It is rather over 5 minutes though.

Always wanted to see a slow, sultry dance to Dove by Cymande.

There are two faces of crypto. One treats it like a hot stock sector aiming to make big profit soon. The other is the true believers. Anything might happen to the first kind of investor. Government owns many guns and virtual guns (aka lawyers). They might come up with new regulations to tax you for profiting on it or ever just for using it. The other kind know that this is going to be a long, long revolution. They don't hoard crypto looking for the ideal moment to unload it; they use it to conduct commerce with whoever is willing to accept it. They believe that money is too important to leave in the control of the Federal Reserve (which isn't very "federal" in fact) and government. Really anything has as much value as the public agrees that it has. They say use crypto or use gold or use the barter system if you like, just get out of government's clutches to the extent that you can. Which cryptos are worthwhile? You can still get into Bitcoin, if you don't need immediate profit. The price in USD will go up, but I can't tell you whether that will be this month or two years from now, you have to have the ability to hold on - or just use it. Ethereum has some specialized use cases, and is hot right now, so maybe you can make some profit on it but it's not something you're going to be using to conduct commerce, i.e. pay for coffee. For actual commerce, Dash is actually best (dashpay.io) - you can spend it at 155k places in the US alone via the DashDirect app; however it's not great for day traders since people haven't caught on to it just yet and the price isn't "mooning". Dogecoin is fundamentally useless - it's the current "tulip" - nothing at all going for it besides two celebrities. Ideally you should look into the code and features of each coin; if you want my opinion, no other coins are even worth discussing. Always remember the credo "Not your keys, not your coins". This means "custodial" wallets where some web site handles everything for you do not truly give you ownership. The provider might steal them, government might require them to be taken from you, they could get hacked. You need to have a hardware wallet (google it if you don't know) and secure your own computer so you don't get hacked (step 1 of which is never run Windows). </lecture>

Most of those noted above. Julie Newmar. Mary Cadorette. Louise Jameson (from Doctor Who). I recall fondly some Cheryl Tiegs posters. *sigh*

Do you also have an issue with Canadian stage tipping? (laying on the floor of the stage with money in your mouth waiting for a dancer to squat down and take it)

Jack & Coke. Rideshare.

The other night I saw a guy making it drizzle at the stage - he'd toss one single in the air, a few seconds later toss another single. About 10 total. The dancer didn't seem to care.

> As a female I will say it’s really not that far fetched. I’ve seen people say why would women want to grind on jeans but as someone who was a serial grinder before I finally lost my virginity light years ago I will say it works. Are you saying you prefer jeans to slacks?

Naturally Cuomo said "screw that, I'LL make the rules in my state". (paraphrasing)
