See above, I still spend money on myself just on things that are of interest to me or will give long lasting rewards...a consumable such as a meal or movie don't really offer any long term rewards and again I can have a better experience (When alone) with both at home....sitting at a table in a restaurant for 20 mins waiting on food and then paying over the odds for it just doesn't make any sense. -

A reasonable number...I'd describe them as "not gay"...a few have died in the last 10yrs though...that happens when you get older.
99% of the time going to restaurants or movies it's with a woman I'm having sexual relations with or someone work related.
I go to a lot of restaurants due to my job, company reps etc because they're paying and want me to buy their shit. Last week the Electrical parts supplier took me to this place...instead of me buying shit from him I convinced him he need to buy a telescope I was getting rid of , which he did. He now wants me to take him out to Columbus to the dark site we use out there and show him the ropes and has been texting me daily about what he's seen/what he's buying and when can we go to Columbus...it's getting a bit too gay and needy for my liking.
Here's where we went.

2022-08-04 at 5:39 PM UTCI would get the oysters starter with either monkfish or sea bass with fried rice. They have nice non-alcoholic cocktails and smoothies, my favourite is the kiwi one.

2022-08-04 at 5:50 PM UTCSpeaking of Oysters...last time I was in New Orleans we were told to go to a certain restaurant for the best oysters in town...a place just off Burbon St, I don't remember the name of it...anyway we got there and there was a 100ft line outside! they had signs along the street 1hr wait 2hr wait, 3hr wait etc we'd have been in the 3hr wait area...and there were still idiots standing there in line for some fucking oysters...Fuck that for a penny cup of tea as me old mum used to say.
Imagine lining up for some raw sloppy oysters for 3hrs when there's 100000 other restaurants to go to.
Next morning went to the cafe du monde for beignets and coffee...30 min wait there..we waited because the woman wanted to...had I been on my own I'd have said fuck that again. -

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Same with going to the movies…I have a problem with paying $20-40 to see a movie in a sticky floored facility with noisy negros fucking with their phones…when I can torrent it for free and eat my restaurant style meal while watching it and throwing microwave popcorn at the cat.
Why would you ever pay to see propaganda. I havent been to a shithole theater in over 15 years. Its all sjw bullshit on the screen -
2022-08-04 at 8:15 PM UTCAll you gotta do to see free movies in the theatres is wait outside the exit doors around the end of the running time of some movie that's playing. Politely hold the door for the first people that come out and any others, then simply walk inside.

Originally posted by Kafka I never thought of that, it’s harder for guys to sneak in snacks because they don’t have handbangs. I always sneak in a can of Monster.
Another reason to go to the movies with another person, preferably a chick...so she can sneak the milkduds in and take the fall if you get caught. -
