I haven't seen the movie but I just wanted to tell you and the board that I think you are beautiful. |

I haven't seen the movie either, but I have read that it isn't as good as it should/could be. Rotten tomatoes could probably give a variety of opinions by people who are not imaginary friends, but who have seen the movie.
ETA and both ABBA and ncs are transcendently, awe-inspiringly attractive. To men. From what I have observed. No drinks necessary.

I'm not interested in being cut down or denigrated to build someone else's ego up. No more. Thanks!

That's fine. But for the record, you would have had to have been better looking for me to use this whole experience as an ego-building exercise.

Doubtful, particularly if ABBA was there for comparison's sake.

You derive some sort of odd feeling of satisfaction rating women.
By putting them down or giving them a carrot by building them up
Not interested in that. |

Despite the fact that neither of us have seen the movie, I want ppnyc (and the rest of the imaginary and actual people on this board) to know that you are beautiful. |

I've not seen it, but I loved, loved, loved LA Confidential, which was taken from the same series of books, and I've heard Not Good Things about The Black Dahlia. I'd rather have that series unmarred, cinematically, so I'll stay away.

Which was a nodding reference to me taking sunnybunny to a trailer trash bar here in SF that serves a drink made with vodka and tang and trying to get her drunk. http://www.smoothasbutter.com/index.php (bar website)

Which people are imaginary and which are real, here?
Oh and thank you, of course. |

1. Yes you are. If I had told the board that you were beautiful, you would never have shut up about it. I know this because you never shut up about whenever anyone says anything even remotely complimentary about you.
2. I don't know why you think I get an odd feeling of satisfaction rating women. You're the only woman I've rated (and if you want a number, I give you a 2.5 out of 10*) and it was more of a flat description than a rating.

*That was oddly satisfying. |

FWIW, he's never rated me the times I've met him. He didn't put me down or build me up.
That said, I was driving one of those times, so he probably didn't want to distract me in the slightest bit one way or another. He did think that I'm not aggressive enough with the use of my horn, though I'm not sure if that was supposed to put me down. Being more aggressive would have gotten us shot where we were at that particular time, so I didn't feel that put down.

Did ABBA just volunteer to rate ppnyc's pussy? 'Cause I don't think Thurgreed did that.
