7. We never had Ted McGinley...
but we've gone through just about every other category

Same Character, Different Actor
Skinner was originally portrayed by George Clooney, then by Helen Hunt.

Birth
The episode when MrScorpio was born.

Death
The episode when IndianaJones was killed in a freak gardening accident.

Puberty
The episode(s) when RetroLounge's voice changed and he started getting happy in his pants.

Live
The Live episode involving redqueen's attempt to perform a seance.

I do
The episode when lost-in-nj marries Carrot Top.

They did it
The episode when the whole Lounge did it.

Special Guest Star
The episode with Gary Coleman. (GD tore him to shreds. He left in tears.)

A Very Special...
The many special episodes we've done...too numerous to mention. (I really hated the one when ohiosmith contracted VD from an indiscretion with a freeper.)

New Kid in Town
Welcome to DU! (Okay, this is one of our strong points!)

Exit Stage Left
The abrupt disappearance of Walt Starr.

10. Chuck is happily married to the teenage girl from "Poltergeist"
Their families may have forgotten about them, but we never will.

9. The Snickers commercial.
That's when all the trolls showed their asses and the mods (apologies to the good ones) showed theirs, too.

13. I'd add the NJ court decisions right before the 06 elections
"But..but the GAYS might cost us the election!!111" :eyes:

Then again, GLBT issues usually bring out the dumb, the ignorant, and just plain bigoted.

And lately, the lack of science literacy has been painful to read at times...
