Sometimes i really dont understand the lounge at all..

[La Lioness Priyanka]

Humanely farmed eggs and thank you notes make flame wars...and have deleted sub threads?

sigh!

i miss the days the flamewars were about songbirds and pittbulls...

:P

[Left Is Write]

1. Thank you notes get flames too?

I just saw the humane eggs flame war, only I didn't see most of the flames.

2. yeah just happened to me...

search under my username and you will find it. it was quite amusing.

my gf who sometimes reads over my shoulder was convinced that i post with a bunch of nuts.

[Left Is Write]

11. Well, she's right about that....

but sometimes we're nutty in a good way! :D

[Left Is Write]

13. Okay, I found it....

I wanted to respond to some of the things, but thought the better of it. No sense pulling that thread back to the front page!

[datasuspect]

18. please share

i can't seem to find the vileness in question.

but like any good car wreck, i just have to look.

3. shall we discuss fried chicken

there was a ban on that subject two years ago





:hi::loveya:

[La Lioness Priyanka]

4. hey hot stuff!

the ban was on all mentions of chicken

funniest ban ever.

[In_The_Wind]

16. you know ~ you are right

it was the funniest

Skinner was way overworked! But I miss all those fish.

5. I just checked out the egg thingy.

Wow. Just...wow.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

6. did you check out my card thread...that was pretty hillarious..

though the funniest posts were deleted. sigh!

[JackBeck]

8. I'll check it out after my smoke break.

Ooops. I think I just started another one.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

10. you are the sole cause of the worlds troubles! you smoker!!!!

[JackBeck]

15. Hopefully, I won't blow up the city.

7. I think the simpler the topic, the more people have to say on it.

:shrug: That's at least what I tend to notice over in GD. Long, well thought out and provoking posts often get 2-3 replies, while 4 sentence verbal pukes get 100 replies, all disagreeing with each other.

Me? I really don't get DU, but I sure as hell find it interesting.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

9. i think people just love to be judgemental and simpler posts are easier to be judgemental about.

or take out their personal vendettas.

[mainegreen]

12. I won't disagree with that. n/t

[Gormy Cuss]

14. You are jealous because they were no deleted subthreads in your thread.

It was a smaller conflagration after all.:P

I saw the egg thread before there were deletions (really a dog diet flamewar, not a humanely farmed eggs issue). The subthreads were from Bizarro land.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

17. i wish i had seen them....and you are right...there should be deleted subthread in my thread

i think i may :cry: about it

[tigereye]

19. it does seem that people will get upset about pretty much

anything....

maybe all should relax and try to be more civil. Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

21. there is a way to state opinion though...w.out being abrasive

i am abrasive on occasion too..but generally when its about civil/human rights /poverty etc

not eggs/pit bulls

[tigereye]

23. I missed it

only saw the fallout.


I agree with you, though.

[eyepaddle]

20. This should soothe even the largest flame induced

blisters
