This needs to be said, and Im going to be the guy who says it.

6. HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM...

This is a politcal messsageboard, no doubt about that.

This is the Lounge of that Political message board. THe Lounge rules say anything (within additional guidelines) goes.

I suggest you just use Hide thread. You will get no sympathy from me. I hate all sorts of threads. So I hide those.... Just do it.

[KissMyAsscroft]

10. Well, people got sick of the sex threads...

And they were banned. This isn't SexUnderground.com either so I understood.

If you want to talk about your cats, Im sure you can find a cat messageboard that you can talk about your cats all nigh long.

As of now you are just wasting bandwith, and making every newbie who visits this site think this is a friggin 9 Lives commercial.

This is a political messageboard, posting vanity crap should be rare. It shouldn't be 5-7 cat posts per page. Right now, there are at least 4 on this page alone.

18. Re: "this is a political message board:"

THIS IS THE LOUNGE. Here are a few other non-political threads from this lounge:

A Question About Jesus
How Were Supertramp Ever Popular?!
LynneSin's rant for today: LAY OFF THE DAMN PERFUME!!!!
What song do you love, but rarely hear played on the radio?
Too Drunk To Drive, Man Hands Keys To 14 Year Old
BIG football hits (link to video)

I have no beef with you, KMA, but honestly. If you are tired of seeing cat threads, IGNORE THEM. Click that handy-dandy little gray "X" at the end of each thread title that annoys or offends you. No more problem!

7. Mistah Z can talk and he sez "I can say YOUR name..."

are you an Aints fan or what?

[AlienGirl]

8. Xen lives with an Evil Naked Talking Cat!

[everythingsxen]

9. She is evil and naked and talks occasionally.

Spoooky!

17. Damn cool picture -- sweet cat!

4. Hey, at least we now know

what JCMach1 has been up to in the Emirates....

:D

5. I've done my part

11. May the fleas of a 1000 feral cats fashion a playground in your scrotum!

DU's own definition of The Lounge: "This forum is for personal/social discussions, vanity posts, and all other non-political topics."

It's reasonable and safe to say that the above includes CATS!

Easy solution: Don't like the cat posts? Don't read 'em!

Meow! :toast:

13. No, cats are the kind of dumb shit that belong in the meeting room

Imagine the lounge as a real cocktail lounge. Do you go out to drink martinis and discuss cats?

[VOX]

15. I'd be more likely to discuss that man in Reno who's shooting cats...

Just to watch them die. :evilgrin: Now, that dude is cold, and I'll bet he never had a cat.

Besides, the Meeting Room is more for astrology buffs, etc. Our pets are part of our everyday lives -- it's only natural that folks like to talk about 'em.

You got a pet?

[Kickin_Donkey]

12. I hear ya ...

I happen to love cats – I have about a dozen barn cats sitting outside my door right now.

But the number of cat threads is a bit much. What is it with DUers and cats?

[FireHeart]

14. Don't like 'em?

Don't read them. I like them and wish there were more. In the appropriate area(s), of course.

The lounge, where most of them occur outside of health/science issues, is open to just about everything. If you can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen.

Long live cats...they rule :)

[VOX]

16. Go, FireHeart!

All I can say is --
:yourock:

[chiburb]

19. I agree ! We should have more...

Bonobos threads!

20. MeeeeOWWW!
