Artiste:
Of course, he does buffy!
That is how he places Jack in an VULNERABLE position !!
No?

I was hoping that you would see that scene with more meaning,
like Jack was told OFF, so to think of becoming a pederast!
You don't see that?

pederast? (had to wiki ) I have no clue, as usual, what you are talking about.

Artiste:
One told Jack to calf-rope, which to me means go get a young stud?

:laugh: Artiste, you are a genius, I have never thought of those implications!
The bartender was trying to tell Jack, in a metaphorical way, that he needed to try to pick up teenage boys instead of men like Jimbo? Maybe, the film is chock full of visual and verbal metaphor, why not "calf roping" as a metaphor for sexual proclivity?
Artiste:
Merci beaucoup brokeplex!
Yes, that is how I interpret that that bartender knows some pederast already,
since he is after all not bartending for nothing? Can I go that far too?
