a question
How outrageous is it permissible to be in GD: P? I mean, without any questionable content, or other wise generally offensive material, how out there is it appropriate to get?

10. The absolute BEST you can hope for is to be ignored and forgotten
What's the point in that?

Save your wild and craziness for teh Lounge. You'll live longer. :hi:

13. Oh, okay. They don't care for that sort of silly joke over there.
I seriously think that's hilarious. But they will either not get it or say something like "go to the Lounge with this stuff." They like straight forward anti-repub jokes and caption political photos, but nothing too out there. Please stay here where you will be appreciated for your genius.

9. GD:P is for only the truly insane, not the insanely funny.
Your efforts will be scoffed at best, so why even bother?

You are like a peasant wondering if he should try and navigate through a minefield. Why do it? :shrug:

12. Are you curious to find out what it is like to be tombstoned? (kicked off the DU)
Curiosity killed the cat. Just sayin'.

16. Wait... Ive seen you post
you are telling me about questionable content?

I don't think I am quite that outrageous. I like to try to extend the art within the limits. If you've tried the furniture in every possible configuration in the room, see me. I will find a new one. Ever had a desk suspended over your bed?

19. All of my chicanery takes place here in the Lounge, where far more leeway is given
Dude, you can do as you wish; but don't say you weren't sufficiently warned.

17. Give it a shot.
Post whatever's on your mind.

Either you'll start a flamewar or get tombstoned. Or both.
