  Why would anybody seek relationship advise from this guy?

  Welcome to "Lloyds Lessons on Love" the new channel for relationship advice. Todays questions:

  Lloyd, I recently made a slight error of judgement and accidentally slept with prostitutes for 4 years. The question is, should I tell ALL my work colleagues or only the female ones?

  Lloyd, how do I explain that prostitution is a perfect fine and acceptable career choice to my young daughters?

  Lloyd, my wife won't let me sleep around with other women. Obviously divorce is expensive and I'd have to hire a cleaner plus I live in her parents basement and am pretty comfy with the setup. How much do I need to humilate her publicly before she realizes she's being cruel and unreasonable?

  Lloyd, I convinced random people on the internet to give me money to advocate for victims of abuse. Now some of them don't want to pay up anymore and say it's because I spend MY money on things that remind them of the abuse they suffered. How many do I need to shout at and block before they will start paying me again?

  Lloyd, I wrote a book describing my past inappropriate behavior with girls and told everyone I can't control myself sexually. Now people are accusing me of inappropriate sexual behavior with girls. I've tried sending pretend law-talking letters to some of them, but they just laughed at me. How big should I pretend my legal and PR team is to try to scare them enough to stop laughing?

  JWs are always the victims... Depending on where you're standing

  two wt pictures of an adult child leaving home, one to be a jw, and one to leave the jws.

  in one, the caption says his family are 'opposing' him, but in the other he's apparently hurting them.

  depends on where you're standing.. .

  Yeah, not so subliminal messaging:

  if you leave parents that are against the WTS, then you are escaping them (so wonderful dedicating your unpaid life-hours to the WTS service)

  If you leave parents that are pro-JW, then you are disappointing them (so selfish, getting an education / living your own life)

  I feel sorry for the kids, if they don’t know now what is going on, sure as heck one day they will.

  Yeah, at a fundamental level if he thinks it's OK and normal to use prostitutes then surely it's OK for his daughter(s) to be on the other side of that trade? If not, why not? Because I don't believe most people, even the ones trying to excuse it, really genuinely believe it's OK and normal, and what really drives that home is whether they would want their own daughter(s) doing it.

  Maybe one of his patreons could ask him that question instead of simply enabling it with their donations.

  If the kids don't find out what he did themselves, someone else will, and they will tell them.

  I still find it so bizarre that he was going round telling other people as though it showed how unfair it was:

  "... so in summary, I'm telling you, my work colleague, about my wife's cruel refusal to give me permission to cheat on her so that you will appreciate and understand why I've had to sleep with hookers regularly for the last 4 years."

  Who does that? Who is so monumentally self-absorbed to be that batshit stupid?

  And yes, I said REGULARLY because it's the dictionary definition.

  These are entitled, shitty people living dysfunctional lives.

  I think they should all be made to fight, in a pit, until only one remains.

  Now THAT is how you restore award show ratings. The academy can forward the standard fee.

  I think what you mean is:

  "If you wanted to go to Thailand for prostitution you'd likely come up with some other reason for going such as scuba-diving"

  One question: which of these would require that you leave your wife at home looking after the kids?

  'cause someone could still enjoy the beach with the kids while you go off and dive, right?

  "wait with the kids on this street corner dear, I'll be back in 30* seconds" ... not so much.

  Its not the first year I didn't watch it (it's in the the same bucket as the Olympics - there are better things todo with your time than give it to these people). But without reading anything else about it, I can guess the theme of the night:

  I'm going to constantly say "gay" and pretend that it makes me clever and ignore that the law is about preventing pedos from grooming children. This is Hollywood, we're built on devouring youth!

  "Ukraine, Zelinsky Biden", repeat ad nauseam. Maybe throw in some TDS for old time-sake.

  Actress showing her tits in a revealing dress to get attention will claim women are objectified and not paid enough, even though she earns more than 99.999% of people on the planet.

  At least an on-stage fight is unexpected. Which makes me think it's staged for publicity to try and bolster flagging viewing figures by turning it into something like the Jerry Springer show.

  I read this after posting. Maybe I was off on the specifics, but right about it being a shit-show. Imagine being in a room where people are trying to come up with ways to resuscitate the Oscars ... and someones suggestion was "Amy Schumer" and they were taking seriously!

  Yes, it's very sad but likely that many young people with no-one to protect them will end up being trafficked.

  Then lowlife scum who rape them will claim its consensual sex because they are "old enough" ... and joke about it on YouTube while bemoaning that being caught makes their own life so difficult.

  Remember a few years ago when it was "Oscars so White"? Now it's two black guys fighting on stage ...

  Way to "represent", and also teach that violence is the answer to a joke you find insulting. I don't recall anyone getting up to hit Harvey Weinstein for anything he did (but lots of gushing praise).

  These are not people anyone should goto for life advice, although they think they can and should lecture everyone on what to believe and how to live.
