...when he said: "I've gone to locations that have a ring doorbell."

CDL replied to Gaijin's post: "All of them HAVE a ring doorbell, but the booker usually instructs the customers NOT to ring the doorbell." What CDL said so ineloquently and inartfully is that all the apartments have a doorbell that rings, NOT a "Ring Doorbell." He was saying to NOT ring the doorbell but simply stand in front of the peephole.
http://www.theeroticreview.com/discussion-boards/ter-general-board-12/you-should-have-read-the-second-paragraph-----990814?page=1 Hold it - on second thought, I believe CDL didn't know that Gaijin was referring to the brand "Ring Doorbell" because it wasn't capitalized. CDL thought Gaijin simply was referring to doors that have doorbells rather than doorknockers or nothing at all.
You understandably misinterpreted what CDL said - you thought he meant a Ring Doorbell, instead of not to ring the doorbell. That's why you thought he was backpedaling when he later said: "...I have never seen one (Ring Doorbell) at an incall apartment."
CDL was also wrong when he said: "When you first said ring doorbell, . . .I didn't realize you were using a brand name." You were replying to CDL's post where he said: "All of them HAVE a ring doorbell,..."
CDL did not realize HE was using the brand name, same as Gaijin was.
However, I agree 100% when you use these words to describe CDL: "backpedaling," "misunderstandings" when called out, "apologizing in one breath and then gaslighting in the next one" and ESPECIALLY "narcissistic behavior."
I wish I could give you a "Like" for each of those descriptive phrases of CDL.
