Who would win in a fight: GD or The Lounge?

[Wetzelbill]

I don't know. Everybody in the Lounge is either drunk or stoned half the time. Maybe if they were clear of mind and pure of soul they'd win. GD is a little meaner, but it just might be all talk. So it's a tossup in my book. Right now anyway.

[NoodleBoy]

1. GD, because winning and being right is much more important to them

[progmom]

2. what...you're a little bored this morning?

hoping for some flames?

here you go:

[Wetzelbill]

17. despite your marriage and all you still made my day.....

Since, I owe my star to you, you have the express written right to flame the hell out of me any day. Whether I get out of line or not. :)

(plus, I witnessed what a softie you are in the first place, you can't ever hide that)

[In_The_Wind]

3. ~ me ~

when I take my gloves off :grr: :mad: :nuke:

[BikeWriter]

4. We have the meanest women. Advantage, us.

[blondeatlast]

8. The hell--I'm a GD woman, myself.

Google my name--they just LOVE me on FR...

[BikeWriter]

12. Wouldn't be any fun if we couldn't play, would it? :-)

[philosophie_en_rose]

33. Non sequitor...

but every time I see your posts, I read "blond eat last" and wonder about it. :P

[jobycom]

5. LOL!! Why do some people assume they are different crowds?

I think of them as different parts of the boxing ring. GD is the center of the ring, the Lounge is the corner where I recuperate for the next round.

My opponent is the other side, not fellow DUers, who give support, and sometimes point out--with varying degrees of manners--where my flaws are,so I can fight BushCo better.

S'all good. :smoke:

[blondeatlast]

9. Well said. I'm not sure why the fuss, anyway. nt

[Wetzelbill]

15. no fuss.. I always make "Who would win in a fight" posts...this is just

another addition to the saga. For example, earlier this week DUers picked Bernstein to win in a fight with Woodward, and in a tag team fight Woodward and Bernstein were able to defeat Simon and Garfunkel. Now those were barnburners.

[jobycom]

36. So, like, what about Eeyore or Gumby? nt

[Mutley]

6. Look. I'm not one to flame anyone around here but

this stuff is going a little far.

"Everybody in the Lounge is either drunk or stoned half the time."

Maybe you're joking, maybe not. But as a recovering drug addict and someone who only drinks once or twice a month, I don't really appreciate that comment. I see the premise of your post, and that's fine. But perhaps it could have been done without the broad generalizions. Now I've seen no other reason besides that to have a problem with you, please please don't give me any more. Thanks.

[Wetzelbill]

14. the broad generalization is the joke

self-delete all of this.

[achtung_circus]

7. That would obviously depend

on whether it was aknife fight or a food fight.

I post in both, as do many here.

[hickman1937]

10. The fight would be called off.

Too many people jumping back and forth between teams. That's not a fight it's a party.

[blondeatlast]

11. YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

Thank you. :toast:

[hickman1937]

16. And you brought the beer!

How kind of you.:toast:

[VOX]

97. I can go with this scenario!

Fun! :bounce:

[cprise]

13. Easy answer

Environment & Energy would win, and we'd be enlisting the help of the GLBT forum to clean up the mess that GD and Lounge made.

[DS1]

18. The Lounge would win. Rabrrrrrr, RKZ, Hedges, CSTT, and I

would run into the middle of the designated battlefield before fighting began and put on the most fucked-up pantomime in the history of the world - thus confusing the GD'ers while the rest of the loungers execute a classic pincer maneuver and drop acid (the fun kind) in the opposition's water supply.

[Wetzelbill]

19. it's best not to encourage me by replying to posts like this

:)

[Misunderestimator]

20. LOL.... Good plan!

:rofl:

I will further distract them by singing the Ride of the Valkyries "HO YO TO HO OOOOOH" wearing only my horned helmut and leather boots.

[DS1]

21. To battle we shall ride!

:patriot:

[Misunderestimator]

22. Ay Ay, Sir!

er... or something like that.

:patriot:

[In_The_Wind]

23. excellent plan

:toast:

:smoke:

[BikeWriter]

24. I hereby volunteer to guard the fair Ladies and the Lounge liquor cabinet.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

30. Cool sig picture, DS1

:)

[Redneck Socialist]

34. Eddie tha 'ed!

I SO loved Iron Maiden in my misspent youth. Thanks for the flashback!

(OK, so this has nothing to do with the OP, but what the hell it's the lounge. Short attention span theater rules the day here.)

PS the lounge would kick GD's ass! :spank:

PPS Maiden Rules! :headbang:

[Rabrrrrrr]

39. And the fields will flow red with the crimson ichor of their

freshly hewn corpses; an ocean of red upon the earth in which no ship may sail save for the ship of lamentation, while the bird of righteous vengeance flies over, surveying its new domain and gleefully announcing its victory song at the wailing remnants of the nothingness that was GD, ridiculing the dead with the mockery of its singing celebrations, and I shall shed a tear of such gladness as I have never felt, standing at the center of the beautiful carnage and knowing that it was I who helped to cause it.

[evlbstrd]

44. That sounds so much like ancient Irish myth!

Call me Finn McCool!

[Rabrrrrrr]

88. You're just jealous I'm going to be splattered with the blood

of my enemies, and you aren't. :P

[Lilith Velkor]

95. one word: SKITTLES

[Orsino]

25. The GOP.

As usual.

[WCGreen]

26. I'll have you know I am totally sober at all times on this

board....

I'm naturally like this..........

[Cocoa]

27. Ditka

even mini Ditka would kick both their asses.

[name not needed]

32. Da bears.

[merh]

28. The lounge

You guys have all of the bottles, just hold the bottle by the neck and smash the end on the bar. :sarcasm:

[WCGreen]

40. Dear Kindly Sergent skinner

You gotta have a heart
It's just our bringing up-ke
That sets the Lounge apart
Our mothers all were junkies
Our fathers all are drunks
Golly Moses naturally were punks.....

Gee, Officer Skinner, we're very upset
We never had the love those posters on GD always get
We ain't no delinquents
We're misunderstood
Deep down inside us there is good......

[merh]

63. Dear kindly EarlG, your Honor,

Dear kindly EarlG, your Honor,
My parents treat me rough,
With all the marijuana,
They won't give me a puff.
They didn't wanna have me,
But somehow I was had.
Leapin' lizards, that's why I'm so bad!

[Redneck Socialist]

35. Well, GD would come in all hot and heavy...

ready to throw down and the Lounge would be like, dude you spilled my drink and then go totally ape-shit, drunken master on GD's ass.

GD wouldn't know what hit them. <insert appropriate ass kicking smiley here>

[I Have A Dream]

37. I truly think that you're right.

:rofl:

The Lounge is like Muhammad Ali ("float like a butterfly, sting like a bee"). When I first started visiting the Lounge, I was amazed at the wit & mental agility that most of its frequent visitors had. They are my heroes! :)

On edit: Oh great, now I have "Wind Beneath My Wings" as an earworm! :(

[NightNurse]

38. GD. TKO. EARLY

A Vegas Decision:shrug:

[xmas74]

41. Is this a political debate or a fist fight?

If I decide never to buy Midol again, I could win a debate in another couple of weeks.
As to a fist fight: I used to work part-time as a guard in the county jail and I spent five years working the 552 ward (not guilty by reason of mental defect) in a state run mental institution. I know I have a damn good chance of winning that fight. I just won't play fair.

[BikeWriter]

43. Hee hee hee! I like your 552 option.

[xmas74]

45. thank you.

I am only about 5'2". In order to work w/ the 552's you had to prove yourself. In my case, I had to be a mean little b*tch who wasn't afraid of anyone.
My home had 3 sex offenders (1 rapist, 1 serial rapist and one child molester), 1 arsonist, 1 murderer and 3 others who had committed serious assaults. And I worked it by myself on an average night.

I figure that I can hold my own in a fight.

[BikeWriter]

50. My ex SIL worked at the prison near Tyler, Texas. She had them eating...

out of her hand.

[xmas74]

52. if you play your cards right you can do just that.

I started working there when I was 19 as a way to pay for college. I put on the sweet and innocent charm when I needed to and had most of them wanting to protect me w/ their own lives. OTOH, when we got a newbie in there it was WWIII on his ass until he learned that if he did what I wanted life was much easier.

I have worked w/ both men and women. I prefer the men. The women were much more devious.

[BikeWriter]

58. Yes'm, SIL said once she won over the majority they...

were working for her. You learned how to fight as a prison guard. I learned in war if someone looked at you funny you went apeshit on them. My crew overseas I treated the same as I would have a working crew in the states. They took care of me, too.

[xmas74]

62. I used to tell a few of my guys that the only difference

between me and them was that I got to drive out of the front gate every single night at 10 pm.
Otherwise, I could act just as crazy as some of them.

[Wetzelbill]

85. Women are more devious? I will keep my mouth shut on this.....

otherwise I may never make it to the Lounge vs GD fight.

So what is that saying? Men are dumb and women are evil?

[xmas74]

91. We'll say this-women have longer memories.

Not a single man there attacked me when I was visibly pregnant. Every single time I worked a womens home they purposely went for my stomach first (kicking, trying to clothesline, slamming me in the stomach w/ a broomstick or mop handle, headbutting my stomach on purpose).
The men brought me pillows to prop up my feet and I never even asked them to do that. The women would attack and laugh afterward, telling me that they hoped that I would lose my baby.

No wonder why I went on bedrest before my seventh month.

[Wetzelbill]

83. you're on my side, whichever one you pick on I'm following

[xmas74]

101. Coola!

I'll be there-name the place.

[xmas74]

42. dupe

[khashka]

46. Lounge, definitely

We'd win that fight quick just so we could get back to our drinks and joints and shameless flirting.

Plus, we're wearing sexier underwear.

We win, no question.

Khash.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

47. Lounge. We'd beat the fuck out of them.

[khashka]

48. And we have kittens!

Let's see those bastards top that one!

Khash.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

49. MMMMEEEEOOOOOWWWWW!

Or kitties are Vikings too!

[xmas74]

51. We do prefer sexier panties,don't we.

Plus, many of us brag about posting nude. It could be a distraction.

[khashka]

54. If you start talking about your sexy panties

we could be here all night. I would of course have to start a thread in retaliation about hairy men in their underwear (simply to distract you, of course) and someone would have to go wake up Skinner and he'd have to give us all a spanking and it would all be too much trouble, right?

Apart from all that.... I think we could wipe the floor with 'em as long as Mr. Scorpio hasn't closed the bar...

Khash.

(Actually, you may be right... we are prone to distraction...)

[xmas74]

56. We are prone to distraction.

I now have to look around online for some new sexy panties. I really need to buy some new t-backs. I love them-so pretty!

[WCGreen]

65. Me too, but not to wear....

Anyway, I always post as close to naked as I can get......

Not a pretty sight, but it does me proud.....

BTW, what were we talking about......

[WCGreen]

66. Me too, but not to wear....

Anyway, I always post as close to naked as I can get......

Not a pretty sight, but it does me proud.....

BTW, what were we talking about......

[xmas74]

67. My obsession w/ buying new T-backs.

I want some rhinestone ones this time. My friends are dragging me along on a day trip to Branson in September. I have to white trash myself out.
Rhinestone t-back panties will make me feel trashy all the way around. I'm also investing in bright red lipstick and a case of AquaNet.

[WCGreen]

68. Stop it...

You are making me rethink my opinion of Missouri girls....

Actually, I did some research on Branson for an article I wrote about Nashville for a paper here in Cleveland.....

Go figure....

Branson forced Nashville to rethink it's relationship with country music.....

They still make Aqua Net.....

How high are you plannin' to take that hair....

[xmas74]

70. You know what they say:

"The higher the hair, the closer to God."
That hair will be touching Heaven before I'm through.

I just want to fit in!
(BTW-not originally a MO girl. Moved here as a teenager. Originally from SE WI right on the WI/IL border).

[WCGreen]

71. Tell me you're not going to see that japanese fiddler guy....

You have got to take a picture of that......

[xmas74]

72. I plan on finding a bar and getting wasted.

I really don't want to go. I only agreed since my friends think that I need to get out more and if I turn this down they will egg me on forever.
Maybe I'll look for him after I'm tipsy. Might be more fun that way.

[WCGreen]

73. The only way.....

Why don't you get out much....

Hell I have to stay in today, a bad air day for us sensative folk.....

[xmas74]

77. Too expensive.

By the time you pay for the entertainment expenses, babysitting,etc it's no longer worth it. If I have to choose between a night at the bar and a month's worth of Highland dance lessons for my daughter, my daughter will get the dance lessons (which come up much cheaper than a night at the bar).

My priorities are to give her what I never got.

[WCGreen]

78. That's good....

But you can't neglect you.....

Don't have to go to a bar to have a good time.....

I never go and I have a great time where ever I am...

Of course I don't have kids but I am broke.....

And I do live in Cleveland so there is a lot to do here....

BTW, What are Highland dance lessons...

And you have to post a pciture of you with the big hair.....

[xmas74]

81. Highland is a form of Scottish Country dancing.

Very athletic, combines ballet, tap, clogging, folk-nearly everything. Some forms of dance actually started w/ Highland.
It was mostly used by men who were in training for battles. The cardio on it is incredible. They say that one dance is the same as running two miles.
The Highland Fling is one of the most common ones.


And I do go out-just not w/o my daughter. A good example is that her dance lessons are $22 a month while hiring a babysitter for a night out is an average of $4 an hour. So, just to see a movie in my town would be ($12 for babysitting, $8 for movie ticket, $4 for soda, $4 for popcorn-neither are the big ones either, $5 for snacks for the babysitter. Right there that comes up to $33 just for myself. Just not worth it.)

[WCGreen]

82. I guess your right.....

It's really hard to make a go of it in this "booming" economy we have going on.......

But hey, who are we to complain when the rich folk are trickling down on us......

[enigmatic]

74. If you go see Yakov Smirnoff...

And get close enough and rip the toupee off his head, I'd worship you forever...

[xmas74]

75. That would be fun.

Now you're selling me on the Branson trip.
I could also puke on him while I'm there.

[enigmatic]

76. And say........

"What A Vomit!" after you're done!:)

[xmas74]

79. That's just what must be said.

He makes me want to puke w/o excess alcohol in my system. Wait'll I get about 8 or 9 dirty martinis in me!

[Wetzelbill]

86. this conversation lost me even before you mentioned a Japanese fiddler

[Wetzelbill]

84. Flirting? Just as long as I don't mistake you for a woman again

everything will be fine.

[khashka]

90. So you're still single, huh?

I'll try not to flirt with you :)

Khash.

[Wetzelbill]

99. haha

Psh....

My idiocy knows no bounds.

[VTMechEngr]

53. The Freepers

As they laughed as we beat each other senseless...

Divide and conquer!

Can't we all just get along:spank:

P.S. GO GD :nuke::woohoo:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

55. They got taken out first just to get us warmed up.

[VTMechEngr]

57. Oh, in that case...

The Gun rights and gun control forum would blow us away.

[khashka]

59. No way

We have a secret weapon.... all we gotta do is fire yvr girl at them and they'll be so befuddled we can move in and take over.

Khash.

[BikeWriter]

60. Fuck, we don't have to belong to any clubs to pack heat. :-)

[Crazy Guggenheim]

61. Yeah but what about our catapults and archers?

[bettyellen]

64. e@sy, we just knock off their eyeglsses, @nd crunch them bene@th our

feet .
@nd then they're just fl@iling @round @nd we c@n pretty much h@ve our w@y with them.

[Richard Steele]

69. Lounge has 75% of the BOOZE, GD has 75% of the FIREARMS...

I happen to have (and love) large amounts of BOTH!

So if open WAR breaks out, just call me SWITZERLAND!

[Kellanved]

80. The Lounge, obviously

The lizards would be 20 minutes late; by that time the GD folks would be busy beating the brains out of each other.

So for the lounge, the only thing left to do, would be to determine who takes the bets.

[Wetzelbill]

87. that's the best analysis yet......

[baby_mouse]

89. GD! GD! GD!

GO GO GO GO GD!!!!

<looks up. Is centre of circle of Cold Stares>

Errr, sorry. I'll just get my coat....

[khashka]

92. Traitor scum

No more booze, drugs or sexy underwear for you, my lad!

And if you don't repent your evil ways we'll set the cute, fuzzy kittens on you and flirt with you. You'll be sorry then!

Khash.

[baby_mouse]

96. NO!

Not the KITTENS!

<struggles valiantly>

[JohnKleeb]

93. Lounge and thats not true

Ive never posted drunk or stoned.

[hfojvt]

94. it depends entirely on which side I fight for

since I post in both places, which side am I on?
I think I probably lean lounge which really has become less lounge-like and more like GD of old.
Given my history, whichever side I take, will likely be the losing side.

[greyl]

98. Haha! The lounge of course.

More passionate.

[sniffa]

100. Lounge - we fight dirty

[kick-ass-bob]

102. Like this:

[Lone_Star_Dem]

103. Where do I belong in this battle of the progressives?!

I post in both places? :crazy:
