Ode to the Lounge
What makes the Lounge the coolest joint in DU World?

Is it because we're the coolest cats?

Or our mates are better looking?

Or our pets show us more love?

Or is it the steady flow of alcohol?

Pray tell?

4. should we not do a "freeper haiku" thread...
to keep with the speculation about the contents of the freeper lounge?

I offer this one to start.

Old nova on blocks
dripping oil on my front lawn
no need to mow it

2. It's the people, plain and simple.
The lounge and all who dwell within have become my invisible family, my imaginary friends, if you will who not only offered me a leg up when I needed it last week, carried me through the mother of all rotten weekends.

Loungers, I love you.
