Just looked up the origins of confetti – really neat! It’s from the Italian for “sweetmeats” & it was little ‘confections’ thrown like rice at weddings.
“as he has no problem talking to strangers, giving card readings, or throwing confetti on strangers”
Gem (and anyone else who has yet to encounter *rob* in the flesh), not only is Kens NOT exaggerating, but his description doesn’t do *rob* justice. Go check out the security cameras at Bogota and check out the confetti strewn along that stretch of 5th Avenue. Strangers seemed to enjoy being showered with confetti though; some even stopped to take pictures.
I went to Thomas Jefferson’s house a couple of weeks ago. I searched and searched for a baseball cap because it was sunny and didn’t want to get burned, but turns out I left them all in New York.
If I had found one I would have taken it off out of respect when I got inside.
His house was really nice but the kitchen could really use some updating.
I don’t think I could rock the borsalino the way benson does. Doesn’t work with a beard.
Mrs. (er, Dr.) Slopey keeps trying to get me to wear a hat for sun protection, but neither of us has identified a hat that anyone thinks actually looks good on me.
(bx and montrose, don’t you start in with the idea of a CAT visor.)

Totally agree with parfait. Pretty much anything derived from French really.
“a certain je ne sais quoi” – Gay.
“cafe au lait” – Gay.
“bon voyage” – Gay.
“brioche” – Gay.
“quiche” – Gay.
“salon” – Gay.
“is probably one of the gayest sounding words in the english language”
i think parfait sounds pretty gay too.
confetti always puts people in a good mood. the actual word “confetti” tho is probably one of the gayest sounding words in the english language.
