Yup, it's always interesting to read what others think is a positive or VFM experience. Apart from the different personality types punting regardless of age I'm starting to suspect there's also a generational difference, most likely also influenced by which recent era(s) of SP a punter has fucked his way thru.
Great that the guy had a good time but I won't be bothering with a time conscious, over-priced SP who plays out a routine rather than engages in the moment with the SS.
Certainly I think we all tend to compare with previous experiences. Those of us who remember the golden age of the Polish invasion consider the current crop a very poor substitute, although that is of course a generalisation. There are still excellent punts to be had, it is just that they are relatively thinner on the ground.
When I was younger, I was quite happy with a quick pump and dump with a hot looking girl, but as I have got older, I find them less satisfying. As I have realised how easy it is to have sex with a stunner, it has lost its magic. Nowadays I want more, it is more about the overall experience. I can quite understand those who give such p&d experiences a positive, as I would have once done so, but nowadays if that was all that I got I would probably give a negative.
