Most over used words... "new" "pics" "up" "comments" "appreciated"... in that order

The word ''Port.''

Since when did we start downgrading such an important aspect of our craft to a pseudonym?

Intense or strong - fashion or commercial work
Hot or sexy - glamour or lingerie work
beautiful - artistic and nudes
Hot or Sexy - GWC comments to artistic and nudes. smile

I loathe ''PICs,'' you are absolutely correct. I puke when I see a model using the reference ''Piccies'' as if they are cute little keychain ornaments or rubber bracelets you just picked up at the AM.PM...

Which is why I use synonyms like incredible, astonishing & remarkable. Now if it's truly "amazing" and you want to step it up... you can always add "Uber" as in "Uber-amazing"!

I just wish we would be more honest and not throw the same words to every page we land on...

"LOVE YOUR PORT" do you really?

"ITS GREAT" whats that even mean?

Id rather know WHY something is good or bad rather then just BLAH!!! the same old ass kissing compliments?

Am i being a sourpuss or does anybody here me on this?
