This Window is Permanently Joyful.

[southlandshari]

I have no clue what all the window business is about, but if anyone wants to be silly and have fun, feel free to jump in here!

Just check your apathy and contempt at the door, please!

:D

[Hugin]

1. No apathy and contempt here!

I'm so happy I made it past 6000!

Still partying on that fact!

:party:

[southlandshari]

4. Excellent!

:woohoo:

:D

[Hugin]

6. Thanks!

:thumbsup:

[Misunderestimator]

2. Happy Happy Joy Joy

[southlandshari]

14. Are you sassing me, missy?

I forgot to say to check the sass at the door, too!

:P

[Misunderestimator]

31. What part of Happy Happy Joy Joy sounds like sass?

:P

[southlandshari]

34. LOL - none

I just like to say "sass" - it makes me joyful when everything else is, well, not joyful!

Try it - you'll like it!

:D

[Misunderestimator]

41. Sassy Sassy Joy Joy

You're right... I love it! :bounce: I feel Sassssssy!

[In_The_Wind]

3. Coolness!

[southlandshari]

15. I knew I could count on you!

The ever joyful Joanie!!!

:loveya:

[Strong Atheist]

5. The window is probably happy for the

olives and the bees in the head ...

[southlandshari]

17. Okay

I have NO idea what you mean by that, but it doesn't appear contemptuous or apathetic, so come on in!

:rofl:

[Strong Atheist]

56. I would explain by linking to three threads, but I

need an advanced search for two of them, and as usual when I need advanced searches:

:grr:

[Susang]

7. I like windows, I like joy

Seems like a no-brainer. :D

[southlandshari]

19. No brainer indeed!

:pals:

[LaraMN]

8. Somebody slammed my leg in the window.

Im fuckin' telling!

[Susang]

12. Snitch

No more window for you! :P

[southlandshari]

24. Fucking DS1 again, wasn't it?

I have an idea on how to deal with him. But we can't discuss it here - it's not very joyful!

:evilgrin:

[LaraMN]

29. Probably. I think he was trying to steal my boot.

He thinks it would look awesome on his "good leg." He needs the extra height on that leg, as his peg leg is too long, and he walks funny.

[matcom]

9. yours is the window of phoney sisters

x(

[southlandshari]

26. LOL!!!

Come on back here tonight, Sparky, and we'll see what's REAL, ok?

:P

[GOPisEvil]

10. Hahahahaha!

Can I be apathetic about my contempt? :shrug:

:silly:

[Zomby Woof]

11. I will fill you in later

There is nothing joyful about any of this.

[Hugin]

16. Tip me also...

I've got some idea... But, not sure of it.

[Susang]

20. No whispering in class

Not unless you're going to share! ;-)

[southlandshari]

21. THIS thread is joyful, ZW

Period.

There is nothing to fill anyone in about regarding this thread. I want to have fun and see people smiling again.

[Susang]

30. That's what I thought, Shari

:hi:

[Zomby Woof]

36. Sorry

But some of us just won't tolerate any sugar-coating of what this is really about.

[Susang]

39. I have no clue what you're talking about

Seriously. :shrug:

[Zomby Woof]

40. I know

I suspect that to a neutral observer, this must be mystifying.

But if it were harmless, I would have stayed the hell out. :-)

As it were, since you don't know, I don't have any cause to differ with you.

[Misunderestimator]

43. It certainly is mystifying how this could be interpreted as anything but

what it is... joy. :shrug:

[Susang]

44. I was just looking for a little DU joy

Seems rather hard to find these days. :-(

[Zomby Woof]

45. Yes it is

And it is primarily due to the underlying currents of this thread.

If you want some joy, you can look for my thread about the sensitive local journalist who called me out in his column yesterday. :D

[progmom]

49. i think you're reading undercurrents that aren't there, ZW.

I'm not sure when people started misunderstanding the intent of sundog's window of joy, but there is nothing sinister about it. It's the same offbeat humor sundog has had since he joined DU. Frankly, it's one of the things I love the most about the DU lounge - crazy word associations, bizarre cultural references...just joyful silliness. I am truly sorry you're reading this thread, or any of the others as anything but that. I would LOVE to get back to people just enjoying themselves and not worrying about personal snipes and double meanings.

[Hugin]

51. Ditto. Ditto. progmom...

The song of joy has faded in the Lounge of late.

[asthmaticeog]

33. Hear, hear!

:toast:

[Misunderestimator]

37. I haven't seen anything but joy this morning.

'tis refreshing.

[asthmaticeog]

46. Well...

the amount of "ignored" I'm seeing a few clicks up from here makes me suspect that not all is joyful in Lounge-land today. :eyes:

But otherwise, I agree, it's been a happier place today than in many a moon! Hope this keeps up. :toast:

[dolo amber]

57. The more you ignore me, the closer I get

:loveya:

[Fenris]

58. Beware !

I bear more grudges
Than lonely high court judges
When you sleep
I will creep
Into your thoughts
Like a bad debt
That you can’t pay
Take the easy way
And give in
Yeah, and let me in
Oh, let me in
Oh let me ...
Oh, let me in
It’s war
It’s war
It’s war
It’s war
It’s war
War
War
War
War

[Hugin]

13. Or contemptuous of one's apathy?

Confusing world sometimes.

[Call Me Wesley]

18. I can't.

I'm still locked in a room without windows! :scared:

[southlandshari]

32. Oh no!

I'll be right there to save you!

But first you'll have to give a tour of that windowless room.

:evilgrin:

[Call Me Wesley]

53. Nooooooooooo!

You just want to see my

[SeattleGirl]

35. Hey Wesley!

We'll try to rescue you!

[Call Me Wesley]

52. Funny!

You caused it!

:hi:

[southlandshari]

27. sundog

I knew you still had some joy left in you!

:hug:

[texas1928]

23. Eh

All I see out the window is blowing dirt, wind, and dry air.


SOUR GRAPES!!!

GRUMBLE GRUMBLE

[southlandshari]

38. Pu-leeze. I can give you joy with one image.

:D

[texas1928]

47. I wish it was that cold and snowy here.

:(

[SeattleGirl]

25. Who couldn't be joyful at seeing you, shari?

Morning! :loveya:

[Lochloosa]

28. Open the window and let in a breeze....

[Heidi]

42. Does this mean you've received

and begun enjoying your gift? :rofl:

[Taverner]

48. Can I be silly?

:bounce:

[progmom]

50. Happy to share joy, Shari

:hug:

[hfojvt]

54. I thought apathy was fun

and that Girlin(redacted) was kinda cool.

How about a parody?

Joy to the world, the sister has come
let the lounge receive its queen
let every heart prepare her room
and heaven and nature sing
and heaven and nature sing
and heaven, and heaven, and nature sing

she rules the lounge
with truth and grace
and makes the lizards prove
the glories of her righteousness
and wonders of her love
and wonders of her love
and wonders, and wonders of her love

****

I always loved that song, especially when I got to sing the bass lines.
Now where is that n00b?
It's time for the lounge welcoming ritual :spank:

[Gold Metal Flake]

55. I don't know what this thread is about exactly, but a quick search

of Yahoo images for window joy found these morsels:
