I guess I just don't get it.

1. Bored people

.

2. I wondered because they seem to be more abundant in the evening and

they move important posts off page one really fast.

4. Important posts? In the Lounge? nt

5. I understand that they are posted in the lounge but everything comes out

on the forums page. Anyway, I was wondering if it was a tradition, an inside joke, or as was suggested, boredom.

6. Use the "lobby" instead of "latest" as your default...

then you don't see that list. I see what you mean though. I petitioned admin to remove the lounge posts from the "latest" list a while ago, I think it pisses off people who come looking for real news on DU, and I think I, as a lounge lizard, don't use that "latest" page to look for threads anyway. But they're still on there.

ps. Boredom in the extreme, in my case. :)

3. Thank you!!

On 9/30, I'm going to post "I'm a widower two years ago, ask me anything" and put the results on ignore.

BTW, just to "hijack" the thread, today is the two year anniversary that Marie had the cardiac arrest that put her into a coma. Thus begins the Black Season (as in the Plague) for me.

10. Thank you

I think I am an unofficial basketcase now; last night, I went to see "my" LV 51s lose to the Portland Beavers. Everything was fine until they started showing all the groups that attended the game. One of the groups was the school that Marie sub-teached at.

Don't worry, you only have 7 weeks of this crap of me; I only have however many years.

11. I don't either ....

Guess some people just need attention so they post outrageous crap to get others to look at them ...

Oh - first song that I heard of her "arrest" on the way to the hospital was, ironically, her 2nd favorite group - REO Speedwagon. I only listen to them when I fu-king HAVE to.

And I'm gonna keep on lovin' you
Cause it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep, I just wanna keep on lovin' you.
Baby, I'm gonna keep on lovin' you
Cause it's the only thing I wanna do
I don't wanna sleep, I just wanna keep on lovin' you.
