Just like to say The Lounge is the best non-political forum on any board
I know of. I check out a couple of other progressive boards, and one thing that always lets them down is that their Lounge equivalents are pretty woeful. Here in the Lounge, we have some of the best wits and satirists, most knowledgeable music and culture posters, and a whole universe of other deeply cool people. You lot rock!

1. I agree...I used to lurk and just read the news and opinion here.
It was the lounge that got me to post. I met some of my best friends in the lounge.

What is possibly controversial about this?

13. It was my post and I deleted it.
It was pointless. Just taking up space.

4. I like the lounge because most people have a great sense of humor here.
I don't get flamed here.

I don't get called a smart-ass here. Although in reality, I am one.

People accept people for what they are here. There aren't many pissing contests that happen here. (Because most people realize here that the only thing that happens in a pissing contest is that everybody gets their pants legs wet).

I like the lounge. We're nice people here.

14. I fall deeper into introversion every day, thank you DU lounge!
I like the lounge because I can try out new material here. So, stay tuned for another episode of The Adventures of Bush and Rove.

16. I love it with 99% of my being
Edited on Mon Mar-22-04 08:15 PM by SarahBelle
The 1% goes to my what would have been my otherwise intact (albeit much colder) heart for allowing myself to get too close to someone in this place when neither of us were in the position to get close. :(

However, I like it enough that I'm still here regardless. I post on the other forums here, but much more minimally. Sometimes it's just nice to hang with like minded people talking about deep and interesting stuff and silly, dumb stuff too.

19. I'm supposed to be "working" on my computer right now, so that
pretty much sums up what I think of the Lounge and the people in it.:hi:
