Need a Wellness Massage?

One of the things I love about Berlin is the escort service. Okay, I mean the ads for the escort service. They're usually on the other side of the complimentary city map with pictures of attractive models and taglines such as:

Exclusive Lustbegleiterinnen für den anspruchsvollen Herrn! (Exclusive desirable escorts for the hard-to-please man!)

Auch exzellente Massagen (no translation needed)

Another reads:

Ein Vergnügen der besonderen Art (Enjoyment of a Special Kind)

Besuche--Escortservice--Wellnessmassagen ("Besuche" means visits.)

One simply has this text inside a heart-shape:

Escort Hotel/Wellness-massagen/Duett

Who knew they were so concerned about one's wellness?

I mean, if it's not Jonathan whoring himself out to David Remnick, it's Vic writing up his perverse Viennese delights.
