The lounge is for love and light and kittens and puppies. No drama in the lounge! Or cthulu will show his wrath!

I actually had a video posted here in GD late last night about a guy asking random women for sex (called "asking 100 girls for sex&quot , and 4 people voted to hide it. This site is getting effing ridiculous IMO, particularly with what the jury votes to hide and what they allow. I don't understand how numerous "Obama is a war-monger/authoritarian/SS cutter" threads are allowed in GD, but now you can't put up a video about an experiment that someone was doing just asking people for sex. It wasn't portraying the women negatively (if anything, the guy looked foolish), and it is gender-related (which is one of the main things that DUers focus on), so I don't get the hide at all. Just like with the "Criminals Gone Wild" video that I had hidden not too long ago, am I going to need to explain every single thread that I post now so people don't get wrong impressions?
Maybe I'm just biased about my own post, though.

I could go the Dr. Strange route and just start a lounge thread about you, that's always entertaining.
