[datasuspect]

seriously though copycat threads suck beyond belief but i would never tell or expect people to stop doing them. it just pains me to think somebody thinks they are funny when they are so not...

[MuseRider]

7. WTF did I miss?

I was gone for a few days. I may not hang in the lounge much but I certainly read it for my daily jollies. I come home and I see all these threads about lounge nannys and changing the lounge? I looked for a thread from Skinner but did not find it. ?????

[Droopy]

10. Somebody said certain types of threads annoy them

And I guess some people take that personally.

[MuseRider]

17. Ooooohhhhh.

Thanks.

[khashka]

16. I know how to do this....

Posting without chemical help. Asking datasuspect to please absent himself.

Terrible things. I do not support them.


Khash.

[redwitch]

18. we need way more alcohol

yeah, that's the ticket! :bounce:

[jmm]

19. Here's what a serious lounge would look like...

I just read The Jungle, ask me anything about how sausages are made!
I just read I Claudius, ask me anything about dysfunctional families!
I just read Of Mice and Men ask me anything about living off the fat of the land!
I just read Lolita ask me if I'm a sick bastard for liking it!
I just read Lord of the Flies ask me why a bunch of teenage boys acting like savages reminds me of the Bush administration!
I just read Soul on Ice don't ask me how Eldridge Cleaver could become a Republican because I have no freakin' clue!
I just read Beyond Good and Evil so I'm asking the questions!


We could restrict the topics to math and we'd see nothing but threads about pi recipes and ways to quantify physical atraction.

[Orsino]

20. Rededicate ourselves to taditional Democratic ideals...

...which consist, apparently, of feeling superior to GD posters. We're on track, I'd say.

[JimmyJazz]

21. rename the lounge "general discussion?"

:shrug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. Don't you remember what yvr girl said about the Lounge?

She said, "Silly is a Lounge requirement." REQUIREMENT, people...

We cannot, and must not, make the Lounge more serious....

There are other forums if you want to be serious...

Don't do it HERE!


:nuke: :mad:
