Rio de Janeiro Reports

[QUOTE=Bravo]They are still tryinbg to play the old 'hold part of your change as a tip trick'. This is third time they tried this one me. Your bill is 278R, you pay 300R and the girl hands you 20R and walks away to handle another customer. I know its only 2R, but its still stealing! Pisses me off because I am positive they don't try this shit with brasilians![/QUOTE]hahaa they tried this on me also. They tried to keep 1R but I asked for it. The girl acted all pissed and slammed a 1R coin on the counter. What a hoe! I'll leave a tip if I liked the customer service. I gave 4R tip over at solarium.

Lol. I don't usually hear the word 'parlor' and Rio in the same sentence. But just on price, I've posted a good number of reports on VM girls both young and fresh. I've found young and fresh girls in 1R a min places in Centro as well, and still do, though admittedly less frequently. But those that know, know that. These days, if there was a 'reverse ignore' button I'd just send anything worth knowing to people like Sperto and PP who actually post anything worth reading. I suppose that's a smartarse comment - but that's what the Brasil board seems to be about these days.

Just by you and Brazil Specialist (who, together with other Americanisms, still spells Brasil the American rather than the Brasilian way). In the words of Led Zepplin, And it makes wonder. :rolleyes:

Golfino,
Out of curiosity, I just did a search on the term [B]“massage parlor.”[/B] I found 70 hits including posts by such veterans as El Austraiaco, Lorenzo, Sui Generis. However, this probably won’t mean a thing to Christopherd as he seems to just want to beat you down over trivia.

Brazilspecialist deserves all the honors for having introduced 'parlor' into this discourse, which has clearly tickled your fancy. If you have nothing to do but wonder, well, have it. (roll eyes).

ROFL. Nice one, Poucolouco - I'll hand that to you. As the board seems to be about nothing but trivia and beating people down over trivia anyway, I was just joining in. ;) No hard feelings.

Many of us are here trying to help others have a good experience, not trying to rent crappy rooms in our shithole apartment or posting ads in exchange for discounts or freebees. We also do not have posts over many years which discuss "young" girls.

. And getting caught up on the thread.

Brazil Specialist's accommodations are better than anything I have seen yet from the three apartment rental agencies I checked out so far. I don't have the experience to make a general declarative statement, but they are pretty nice. I will consider staying there if I am going to hunt on the beach.

Brazil Specialist did good by me when we went slumming in Copa and other locations. His mongering thesis statement is "natural breasts that don't sag, nice tummy". That generally means 18-23 year olds, no kids, although his regulars range up to 30. So yes, he is biased towards the younger crowd. We found enough diamonds in the rough to keep a monger happy on a limited budget. Unfortunately, the rooms/bathrooms varied from decent to "this sucks! ". Yes, we really packed sheets and towels. Overall I had fun and went places I would have not otherwise gone.

This board really is getting into Trivia.

I spell Brazil the American English way on an American/English board, and the Brazilian way on a Brazilian board. Should I do it the other way around?

Ever bothered to spell check Brasil on Microsoft Word Brazilian version, language settings US English? It suggests to repair it to Brazil or Basil. "Brasil" is WRONG in English, sorry to tell you that.

Claro que poderiamos mudar as nossas reportagens e falar tudo em português. Não tem problema. Não sei se todos iriam entender. Creio que seriam um problema.

Our beloved board spells Brazil the English Way

InternationalSexGuide > South America > Brazil > Rio de Janeiro Reports

I wonder if the Philippines board spells it Pilipinas? Or the Greek section spells it Ελλάς. Or the Thai board:
thailand - ประเทศไทย (pratheṣ̄thịy). Or Deutschland, the deutsche way, for our FKK friends.

Anyone bother to find out? I think I know the answer already. Maybe ChristopherD should visit these country section boards to help members straight to correct their ways.

Maybe we need to find ways to translate "shithole apartment" too? Interestingly, the Brazilian Board calls the cheap apartment and street scene "area trash".

Should I talk about "casas de massagem" in the future? What would be the officially aproved wording for "massage parlor"?

From what I remember, ChristopherD usually is a productive poster.


Can't we focus on girls, travel and other interesting issues?

Well

I do not want to enter this war, but I have to correct you.

Brasil is correct spelling in english. Brazil is correct spelling in american english.

Claro que podemos continuar em portugues. Vamos nessa.

I noticed some items were stolen from my bag on my recent trip to Rio. Nothing expensive since I carry those items onboard. It might be a good idea to start inventorying items in your bag and check to make sure everything is there before leaving the airport. If not, file a claim at the baggage claim office. They speak English (or is it inglês?).

Also after coming back to the US, I noticed that several containers inside my bag which had been sealed were opened. Nothing taken so I assume it was done by security.

I had a used netbook in my checked lugguage because I couldn't fit in my carry on which had the more important laptop and cameras. But nothing was stolen. I took photos of my open suitcase just in case. I am currently in Rio but I entered Brazil in Sao Paulo.

As for coming back into the US sounds like TCA bastards. Maybe your containers held liquids and they opened them after noticing them on the x-ray.

The British Foreign Office, the Times, the Economist and the Oxford English dictionary (World English version) all use "Brazil". Where I live, there is always a mix of British and American spellings and usages, and we have to keep track of which is which - it is always spelled with a "Z" in English.

Christoferd is either English, or else he speaks in tongues.
