1. SUPER fucking lame-ass. |
|
With anything I post in the Lounge, there's at least a 50-50 chance I'm rickrolling or generally fucking around.
NEVER in LBN, GD, or GDP. If I post there, it's 100% legit, and 100% of the time I see one of those fake posts in the "serious" threads I think "What a fucking TOOL."

I rarely go into GD cause I try to avoid the flamewars but usually when I do I click on a BREAKING NEWS post in GD and its something from the Onion or some blog where some guy thinks he's funny. It really annoys me.

3. I sometimes put Onion posts in GD...put one there today, as a matter of fact...BUT... |
|
...every time I do, the thread title BEGINS WITH "The Onion..."
The one I posted today was about Alito, and the satire (even though the piece is a year old) was relevant to recent events at SOTU, and I felt that it was a bit heavier than normal Lounge material.
But for some people, the joke IS the post, not its content. They're just looking for a reaction. Sad, in its own annoying way.
:rofl:

with a picture of him jogging around DC.
Watching the heads explode was priceless!
