I've never been in the lounge before...
Hello?

Is this a tough room?

So, what goes on in here?

I brought cheesecake!

8. Why is it always that...
...smart, funny people are really into movies?

They're not only INTO movies, they know ALL of the lines.

I remember something about that. Either I read the initial

That Tyler...(sigh).

I wonder if he ever called Congress.

4. You've got cheesecake?
What took you so long to get here?




We're not so tough. We like to giggle and cut up a bit on occasion, though. Grab your flippers and jump right on in.

46. Answers!
Are you a Scientologist?
--I believe in screaming like a crazed baboon during the birthing process. So...no.

What do you think of Tom Cruise?
--He had me at "hello" (Risky Business), then lost me after "Days of Thunder."
Truly...I've never liked the guy. This isn't part of his fan club is it?

Do you have any opinions on mothering?
I'm a mom to two girls--one in kindergarten, one in second grade. So, by default--I have
loads of opinions. Breast milk for everybody!

And the mother of them all:
Britney.
--She can't sing. She can't dance. She cracks her gum. Yet, she's a gazillionaire. Why can't I be her?

23. And while you're at it...
Do you prefer Led Zeppelin or The Who?

Can people who drive cars have a negative opinion about second-hand smoke?

May I mumble dogface to the banana patch?

Where's the confounded bridge?

Which one's Pink?

52. Man, these are tough entrance exams!
Do you prefer Led Zeppelin or The Who?
--I'm a hardcore Zeppelin fan. Zeppelin, The Starland Vocal Band and John Tesh--ya can't beat em!

Can people who drive cars have a negative opinion about second-hand smoke?
--Only if they're carrying proper insurance and registration forms.

May I mumble dogface to the banana patch?
--Try and make a touchdown...you scumbag!

Where's the confounded bridge?
One block past the crossroads of perplexity, just past the monkey grass shack.

Which one's Pink?
The one with the hula skirt.

:)

39. Answers...
---I don't like the Olive Garden because they don't have a drive-thru. Eating
lasagna in the car is quite the experience.

Cracker Barrel---I've never been. Don't you have to own a monochromatic pants suit
to get in the door?

I don't bread my chicken. The Colonel does. Since the recipe is secret, I don't know.

Kirsty Alley. Plays a great drunk. Her best line, "I'm a beautiful, beautiful girl!"

I have one cat. He's an indoor cat who longs to be outdoor.

Did I pass? I assume these topics have been covered here before. I may not have
the right answers now...but I AM willing to learn! ;)

24. Good morning, my dear TwoSparkles!
Wow, you brought cheesecake? :9

I'll have a piece, please!

What a yummy thing for breakfast!

The Lounge is the living, beating heart of DU!

We have fun here......lots of fun! :evilgrin:

Sometimes there are picture threads.........sometimes there are questions about things.......sometimes we have philosophical threads!

Some days things move sooooo quickly that it feels like a chat room!

Welcome!

Well, just don't make too many copycats all at once, k?

What goes on here?
A lot of consoling, food and animal talk, and..oh...you might want to get those photos of yourself ready!
