Is it necessary to check AtA before posting?
Jeez. I never realized that discussing a damned TV show is now off-limits in the lounge.

5. Maybe so, but I should be allowed a little
righteous indignation about what just happened.

Jeezus on a cracker! :grr:

7. The error was that nobody addessed that the show was a farce
that is knocking Hollywood for it's sexism and portrayal of large women. If you are Roseanne and are playing a slob you get a role. If you are an elegant large woman you are screwed.

26. Like I said, I adore the actor (is her's a name that shall not be named)
and if anyone could carry it off, she could. But, damned me to hell for mentioning it. :hi:

11. Ah, you just got the fallout.
:hug: That's pretty wild, though, your own thread got locked before you even got a chance to post to it.

14. You should have started your thread like this:
"Off the top of your head, did you see Kirstie ..."

19. LOL! Obviously!
50 copycat threads still stand, but one silly question about one silly TV show does. Go figure. :shrug:

23. And oh yeah...
This will probably get this locked, but I'm sick and tired of threads started by obvious trolls staying around for days and days until they are finally locked without banning the instigator. Funny as hell that threads in the Lounge started completely innocently can get locked without any flaming at all on the grounds that it "might" get flamed. Unbelievable the power of a single poster around here.

25. Amen.
The Lounge should be a little looser than the other forums. It's like there's no tolerance for debate in here. Debate makes the place interesting, in my opinion.
