to a month here.

15. That whole "THEY" meme is part of the problem...
It's not 'they' VS 'the lounge'! :eyes:

It's a ridiculous notion fostered by petty BS and group think.

This is a Democratic website! Not a freerepukesfreeforall!

17. I don't know, I think some of them have definitely decided that we're too shallow to be worthy
and there's a definite atmospheric change between the lounge and GD where something that would be understood to be teasing here would not translate there.

28. I think they're both the same..same humor and same dumbness
I don't see to much difference except that the GD forum seems to care an awful lot about taking the country back.
Where as; 'The Lounge' is the place to just forget all your problems, most of the time. But the players are essentially the same.
Same people, same passions, same hearts... all in the same place with the exception that GD doesn't have the gossip.

How did it disintegrate to this, is what I don't understand. A slippery slope, but how did it start?

5. No need to do anything to them...
Those who are down on The Lounge are doing to themselves. Too much angst isn't healthy. :beer:

9. Oh, hey!
I was gonna tell you — when I looked up Gregory Peck stuff for the thread on him today, IMDB said Guinness was his beverage o' choice. Said he drank it every day and even had a tap installed in his house. :D

16. Shave their bellies with a rusty razor,
Shave their bellies with a rusty razor,
Shave their bellies with a rusty razor,
Ear-ly in the mornin'!


...or not.* (Excuse my more-than-usual randomness - it's nearly 2:00 in the morning here and I'm working on a project involving drinking songs for one of my classes tomorrow. ;)) Peace.


*However, if a drunken sailor happens to wander into the Lounge, I reserve the right to be really obnoxious about it and pretend I'm psychic or something. :crazy:

41. hey, no one responds to me here
but they do in GD. I don't know why I'm such an outcast thread killa, but seems that I am. maybe it's my weird tastes in music and books? I always like it when someone exposes me to something new, whether I like it or not, cause I find other things I like. Maybe I'm just a flaming bitch on a bun or something. :shrug:

I've tried not to cry myself to sleep over this, but..but... :cry:

42. Raindog, you haven't heard of our
official Lounge Losers Club?

I'm SERIES, dude!

It was started a few months back by Elrond Hubbard.
Yes, he's a member, I'm NOT making it up.

It's for people like us who kill threads and feel outside of the circle.
whatever the hell that means.

Next time we get a LLoser Thread going, I'll let you know.

You are among friends! :pals:

44. that would be dudette
unless you're going for the generic gender thing like actor or waiter and all that.

thanks for the condolences.

whenever I post in the lounge I'll make sure I put a big red "L" on my forehead so I don't get my hopes up.

46. Sorry, I was assuming the
Dog=Dawg.

I was wrong and I promptly admit it.

You are indeed a dudette.

I'm SERIES, our " membership" is up past 100
and now the " cool guys" want to join in.

We gotta get a roll call up and rolling soon.

LLosers are winners!

:D
