I sure do feel safe in the Lounge. I feel that if I venture out of here, I'll be banned instantly.

I sure do feel safe in the Lounge. I feel that if I venture out of here, I'll be banned instantly.
I wonder how many people have ever been banned because of a lounge post. Back in the day, about 6 years ago (under a different persona), I was having fun and mostly spent my time in the lounge.

Then one sleepy Saturday morning, I opened my yap in GD or somewhere and got promptly ejected like an agitated NBA dude. Took quite a few years before I even wanted to sneak back on.

Thank the stars that the Lounge is here. It's the perfect refuge for those of us who don't want to be all 'political' and 'knowledgeable' and 'savvy' and 'opinionated' and 'tuned-in' and 'right-all-the-time'.

Or even just 'dicks'.

2. Cool, will take that under advisement. I don't pay attention to the comings and goings of most
people here. Guess it's quite probable though. Live and learn. But what a bad way to go out. Taken out by the Lounge? Bummer.

5. Yep. And there are plenty of dicks in the lounge, too.
Well, not plenty. But some.

7. Really, that's too bad. I would think this to be the one place where people could put all that on a
hook for a sec or two. Guess I need to spend some more time here. (maybe)

14. Stay away from turtlensue.
I know of several posters who used to post in her threads, and they all ended up tombstoned. They also lost all of their hair and grew several extra nipples.

Beware the ides of TZ!

9. Most people in the Lounge are nice
Didn't mean to start anything. Just didn't want you to think people here don't get TS'd. :hug:

11. K. Cool. Didn't think you were starting anything unsavory. But just showing an old newbie the ropes.
Apreche the words of wisdom. Thanks and the best to you and the impending and hopefully wonderful year ahead.

13. It's a relatively safe place to boost your post count
That's what I'm doing here. I mean aside from everyone likes pop-culture chat anyway.
