I love the lounge.
It is the only place where we can flame away about Britney Spears, fried chicken, Tom Cruise, pit bulls, etc. Yet we still all love each other. Isn't that great? And if this turns into a flame war then I'll be damned!

:silly: Maybe we can use Tom Cruise's name as a curse word like Cartman on South Park uses Barbara Streisand's. :crazy: :P

4. I hate to burst your bubble...
but not everyone in the lounge loves each other. I know too many people who have been set upon by the various cliques to believe that for one second.

And I am part of the universal clique. I'm in all of them. People may not know that I am part of their clique, but I am.

27. Tsk. Dudette,
Do you need me to kick someone's ass?

Or maybe just send extra-strength :hug:

28. I'm trying to be a kinder and gentler person...
so the hug'll work even if what I really want is to watch you kick someone's ass. Just think of the money we could make selling the pictures of that. :)

29. Heee!
It'd be more or less a comedy. I'm not really very big, nor very fierce.

But I got heart and a deadly sharp tongue. :7

it's the size of the fight in the dog.

I wouldn't get in your way if you were ever really mad. :scared: ;) And I'm really glad I manage to stay on the good side of that sharp tongue. :)

8. E-cliques? That's an experiment in sociology isn't it.
And PM's are like passing notes in class? Interesting concept.

13. Absolutely it's like passing notes
SOmetimes the behavior around here is indistinguishable from your average junior high school.

48. A-fuckin'-men!
It's easy to see when the PM exchanges kick in... suddenly some assholes (the same ones over and over) you haven't seen in a week all descend upon a thread to stir up shit where there really wasn't any to be found.

Junior high is the most apt description.

44. I will answer that.
Contrary to a popular notion here in the lounge, no one can see another person's PM unless it is alerted on. And then only admin. can see it.

Mods can't read any PMs except their own.

Feel better, everyeone????

45. Perhaps you should take a lesson from my 5th grade teacher.......
When someone gets caught sending a juicy email, you should read it aloud for the entire group. Maybe put a check mark next to their name too. :-)

52. LOL. Well, in reality.
Mods can't read them because the software doesn't allow it. I think that is a good thing, personally, because it makes a private message private unless the persons involved want to make it not so.

the teacher and read outloud in the lounge!

I used to chalk it up to looking innocent on the surface. But the internet disabused me of that notion 'cause it happens here too. So I have no idea what it is.
