If The Lounge Ever Got As Bitter and Angry As GD:P, What Do You Think Would Have Caused It?
is there an off-limit topic in the lounge that I don't know about?

A Voldemort-like 'he who shall not be named' topic?

I'd love to know.





you know, for research purposes. :evilgrin:

3. Noisy babies/toddlers on airplanes.
Best to stay FAR clear of that one.

15. Isn't that why weapons aren't allowed on planes?
Whiney kids the parents don't control and the person who sitting next to you won't shut up I think are the real reason... I mean I've been tempted to garotte a windbag with my iPod cord before.

5. Haven't been here to long, have you? The Lounge has imploded many times, over
such such mundane, non-controversial (you'd think) "issues" as fried chicken.

I shit you not. People were biting each other, as if they had all contracted rabies, over fried chicken.

I missed THAT one, and I'm glad I did.

10. The Lounge has been as bitter as GD-P in the past
If you think the Clinton/Obama fights are bad, you should have seen this place about two years ago when people picked sides over a break-up. :scared:

11. personal minor minutiae as opposed to personal major political
scandals. Little love nest peccadilloes as opposed to trying to solve the world's problems.

17. Apparently you can't post pictures that define the term "sexy"
Learned that last night, I did... but taht was in GDP, so I dunno about here.

And I was veeery inclusive - I mean I had men, women, men kissing men, women kissing women, women with junk in their trunk, guys with tats, hot asian action, men dressed up as women, women dressed up as men, and it still was verboten.

I guess being raised by Liberal Europeans doesn't help me much with the topic of "don't go there" in America... kinda like learning that topless sunbathing doesn't occur in Central Park the hard way.

25. The breeders get all bent out shape being called breeders.
The childless get bent out of shape because of the injustices and prejudices that society inflicts upon them merely for choosing to be childless.

35. It would be the damn caucus that did the lounge in
The cat clique would win, and all hell would break loose. I can just hear it, right before the fire, a cat lover would start screaming something silly like, "You're either with us or against us."

It's true, where there's smoke, there's fire! Run, RUN, RUN!

Steve Irwin and Laura Brannigan come to mind. Apparently we are not to speak ill of the dead if their body is still warm.
