I was drinking Appleton's and orange juice last night.



Hmmmm...three grades of Stoli, The Glenlivet, amaretto...

...TEQUILA! With the blue curacao stuff to go with!

:toast:

I hope everybody comes back.

I haven't been paying attention I guess. I know Billy was going to his Mum's , Retro's taking a break .. haven't read about KC2 though :(

I'm not going anywhere as far as I know.

8. I know it.
Winter is getting to everybody and it makes me a bit sad too. Let us hope that these dear people find some peace of mind, whether or not they decided to return to DU.

10. KC2 asked to be TSd.
?????

We all need to relax a bit and be easier on each other. The lounge is great but things do get tense elsewhere.

11. I agree
For about a month I've been watching one person in here be practically lynched every time she posts a thread, and I can't get involved in it because another couple of folks here seem to have made it their life's goal to crucify me, so needless to say I can't handle anymore drama.

It's sad that we get so comfortable here that we eat each other for lunch, but it does make things a whole lot easier for the political opposition.

12. The internet permits us to completely dehumanize those we communicate with...
Edited on Sat Feb-17-07 06:04 PM by Writer
We are only text (and an eventual picture) posted on a screen. Any sense of humanity is lost.

38. I hate it that people are treating you that way!
I have a couple of people here that have made it their life's work to disagree rudely with me, so I understand completely. I'll beat some ass if you need me too. :evilgrin: Or I'll enlist Skittles. LOL :hug:

14. I actually view the occasional bullshit as a challenge to be overcome
or overlooked, seriously. My DU persona just invites ridicule and occasionally I get it. Oh well, life goes on. :shrug:

16. Nobody at present.
I have soothed most of the savage beasts and the rest ignore me. What I've noticed is that when I present my (often dissenting) opinion in GD, many people will chime in and agree with me. This makes the occasional insult worth enduring.

LOL. I do not venture in there. Why debate *issues* when you can endure the pointless but complex and creative pysch ops the lounge has to offer.

But my opinion is it is full of trolls and viral marketeers. I'm not getting paid, so it's kind of not fair.

I don't post much, but I lurk a lot, and I must have missed that Redstone left. I really enjoy he posts. ( Along with many others, don't want to leave anyone out.)

51. Doesn't sound much different
than Retro's and Billy's reasons, ambiguous as they were. I hope they all get to feeling better. I don't post much but I enjoy reading theirs and interacting with them on occassion.

44. Hell Hath Frozen Over?
or maybe the weather is really fucking with people's heads?

Or maybe * has found a way to give computer viruses to people through the internets and we are all losing our minds now?

:shrug:

I don't know

I think it is unrelated in ways, and related in ways.

sucks though!
