As local so to speak you have an advantage of being insider AND having a time , luxuries not available to visitors. correct although they may be different meanings of what each of us put under ' service ' umbrella. And there's looks issue. To put it proletarian way , good fucking guy , not necessarily must be good looking . While 90 out of 100 guys have decent cock and/ or ass, perhaps only quarter of those are head turners in sense of looks , be it face or built or both.

analogy would make sense only if can of Coke needs to eat and , yes , to have haircut from time to time . most of us seeing can of Coke too cheap would be suspicious that there's something wrong with it.

I understand people are falling on hard times but there are millions and millions of people in the world supporting their families by every mean without even having fraction of opportunities that guy and his parents had in life living where they are. Help him if you inclined to, coffee or not but I, for one find that kind of pleading audacious.

dream on. It soon will be mandated that all US issued credit / debit cards will need to bear portrait of current and second last president, just to make sure you guys won't forget who is in charge

no, he knows that discussing price gets us inflamed as nothing excite people more than talking about other's spending habits so he gladly put some gasoline into our small flame. He is not as stingy as he likes us to believe.
