“This is my ‘Mary Jane’ there. This is my gay tattoo. This over here means peace, love, and happiness.” Ricardo is showing off his multitude of tattoos. “This is my music. And I have a barcode on the back of my neck. Everyone always asks, ‘Can you scan?’ And I’m like, “I actually haven’t tried.”

The 29-year-old D.C. native is as congenial and laid-back as they come. An hour conversation with him is casual and candid. He’s worked at the Crew Club for the past 5 years, a job he enjoys. “I like that I can be myself there,” he says. “I don’t have to come in and wear a suit and tie and be this other person. I can just come in, do my work, and go on home.” As for that barcode, when prodded that he should get it scanned to see if it rings him up as worth $1 million, he laughs, “I’d be like, ‘Give me my money, then!'”

For what purpose? To make your own Slushies?

How many of those were good dates?
Neither.

On a smoking balcony.

It wasn’t really a pickup line, but I had someone who said he wanted to put me under water, pull the water softly over my head, and baptize me. I never returned his calls.

What was your worst date ever?
I got catfished. Different picture, yeah. He was out of shape, not that attractive. It wasn’t him at all. It was just a totally different picture. I’m just sitting there the whole time like, “You lied to me and you’re still trying to come on to me and trying to talk to me.”

Let’s get this straight. Anderson beats Rachel. Anderson beats Don. But Wolf beats Anderson?
He’s the older, white gentleman with the white hair, right?

Yes.
With the glasses.

Yes. He beats Anderson Cooper?
I mean, Anderson Cooper is gorgeous but I like people who are more interesting.

Which of these daddies would you want to get a spanking from: George Clooney, Hugh Jackman, or Mark Cuban.

Ever see Shark Tank?
The bald headed gentleman?

No. He’s the one who owns the Mavericks.
Oh. Definitely Hugh Jackman.

What’s your greatest fear?
To die alone.

If your home was burning, what’s the first thing you’d grab while you leave?
I live with my brother, so I’m making sure my brother is up and out. But I would grab clothes just to make sure I’m not just out here looking crazy because who knows who is going to be there.

Would you leave the dolls to melt?
I would not leave the dolls if I could get them, but the clothes would come first.

What if it were a choice between the dolls or Wolf?
It would probably be my dolls, because he has done nothing for me.

I don’t have any pets.

What would you name your first pet?
Mister. I already know what I want. I want a black Scottish Terrier. He would be a my little Mister.

What was the name of the street you grew up on?
Stanton Terrace.

Your porn star name would be Mister Stanton Terrace.
Which is not that bad if I just cut off the terrace and keep the Mister Stanton.

That seems a little fetishy. Does size really matter?
Yes. If I’m on the bottom I like to feel it. I’m not a size queen but I like at least eight and up and a nice thickness to it. Nice and girthy.

What if it’s smaller?
I’m a nice person. If you pull out a small penis I’ll do whatever I need to do with it, but I probably won’t call you back for another time because if I’m here for penis, I want — I don’t want penis, I want dick. There’s a difference. Penis is seven and smaller. When I say dick I’m thinking, you know, it’s going to fill your mouth up. It’s going to be something. I don’t use cock, actually. Just dick and penis.

Dick, penis, and no cock.
Yeah. I don’t use cock. I don’t ever say it.

Well, and who really does? What vegetable do you think you most resemble?
A peanut. I feel like I have a peanut head.

What era do you think you belong in?
Definitely the eighties. My style is punk rock, urban. Style-wise, definitely eighties.

Is Donald Trump a racist?
I wouldn’t say he’s a racist. I will say he is privileged and only knows his very own, so he doesn’t know how to be a president for everyone. He knows how to be a president for his people but not for everyone. I wouldn’t say he’s racist though. He says those type of things and he doesn’t mean anything. It just means, “I’m rich, and I’m powerful, and these people are beneath me.”

Do you think he’d be a bad president?
Yeah. He’s not for the people, he’s just for his people.

And Hillary?
I would rather Hillary but I don’t really know too much about her, either. I know more about Bill. Bill, for me, was a good president. He did what he needed to do. I feel like she knows what to do since she was there through that. Maybe.

What would you like to be remembered for?
Being kind. Being a good singer.

What do you like best about your life?
I love that my family still loves me. I live with my brother. I see my mother and sister all the time. I have great friends that I’ve had for, the last ten, eleven years.

Would you rather live longer or be wealthier?
Be wealthier. Unfortunately in this life you have to have money to enjoy everything. You might be able to enjoy things that don’t cost stuff but everything that life has to offer you, you will probably have a better life if you are more wealthy.

What’s your philosophy of life?
Peace, love, and happiness.

That’s your tattoo.
Yeah. Everything would be so much better if there was peace in the world. If people loved each other it would be so much better and everyone would be happy.
