Okay, three things about this.

1. “Looser” means, “less tight than.” “Loser” means “one who loses.”

2. **Tony Montana** hasn’t posted since 2008, so loser or not, he’s pretty unlikely to ever learn your opinion of him, at least from this thread.

3. This is the big one:

Oh, come on, **Miller**. Just ban the fuckwit and be done with it. You know he’s going to get axed anyway, with that level of posting ability and grasp of basic spelling. Save everybody some time and do it now.

I would, but as we all know, you’re not the real **Bryan Ekers**. The real **Bryan Ekers** retired fifteen years ago, and is living like a king in Patagonia.

1. She walks down the street late at night wearing stiletto heels, fishnet stockings, and a sign that says “HO.” With rates displayed, and a cash register strapped to her back.

- He’s always talking about these other hobbies he has, but never takes you to any of them which have a social component (except for the place where you happened to meet).

Bonus points if one of said hobbies is dancing… a dude who likes to shake booty but not with you? Yeah, I should have realized that bell wasn’t the door chiming.

Still can be turned into a fun kind of “advice thread”, though 🙂

1. If you wake up from sex on the floor of your apartment, your clothes are gone and so is everything else you owned up to this point, signs point to her being a ho.
