The lounge is really hopping tonight

[redwitch]

Usually it is a happy, carefree place. Ooh boy. Check out the J Lo/ Heather McCartney thread. I think it has everything- but feel free to add to the mayhem of prostheses, PETA, cats, songbirds and well, just go see. :popcorn:

1. OMG! You're right. I think I'll pop over to GD for some comic relief!

:silly:

2. Well, this is pretty funny.

8. I have that effect on a lot of folks

Usually it's when I'm trying to be serious, though. :P :crazy:

5. Our DU World has turned upside down tonight.

GD is funny, Lounge is scary. Why is this happening to us?????

[Lone_Star_Dem]

9. It's because bush was channeling FDR

The cosmos are out of order now. :scared:

[redwitch]

12. That must be it.

You are tres clever! :hi:

4. They mentioned the four-letter word . . .

PETA.

11. OMG! The next thing you know they'll be flaiming each other over

the Fat Actre...Oh wait, that happened. Kids in restaur...no, they did that, too. I've got it! Laura Branig...Woody All...Britney Spea...

Oh, let's face it, those lounge lizards love their flame wars as much as anyone else :D

6. I had to do a spoof of the J Lo/McCartney thread.

7. Now that the Lounge has been taken off the front page, I just never

know what is going on over there.

10. I miss it in my latest page, too

:cry:

[JimmyJazz]

13. I'm not questioning their judgment, but I'm curious as to why that

change was made in light of the fact that one of the preferences offered is to hide lounge threads from the "latest" page. :shrug:

[Lone_Star_Dem]

15. I wondered that, too.

We also still have the option to allow or disallow emails which is no longer a feature. I guess it may have came with the software package and they just leave it there?

I thought I saw a lounge post yesterday on the latest page, then I refreshed and *poof* it was gone. I think it may have been wishful viewing on my part. :shrug:

16. I assume because things were in that crisis mode for a while when

we couldn't see threads as they are posted. I hate that the most because you can't keep an eye on when new things come up.

The change did work so that the Latest page could go on and My Posts started working too - that was the other thing that made DU particularly hard to use when we went to Defcom 2 or 3, etc.

I miss seeing the Lounge threads come up but they managed to solve those other problems which I think were worse. But that is just my opinion.

I just forget that I'm not seeing Lounge threads sometimes and I need to go check for the really important stuff. I was so late in finding out Britney had her baby, I was embarrassed. :D

I wonder if we are just going to permanently stay at this level now? We all need the Lounge sometimes.

14. I've avoided the lounge since I ran out of asafetida last month
