Can someone PM me and tell me what the latest longue drama is about?

[XemaSab]

I'm lost. :shrug:

[MissHoneychurch]

1. You are not the only one

but sometimes being lost is a blessing

[hamsterjill]

61. I think this may be one of those times!

n/t

[DarkTirade]

2. Some people are being mean to other people because the other people are mean.

Duh. :P

[Richardo]

14. Most succinct yet accurate description ever.

Applies to all Lounge drama as well. Kudos! :thumbsup:

[Tuesday Afternoon]

3. I really do not know, nor care....

I just got curious about the difference between cliques and groups of friends. Googled and posted my findings.

I am now somewhere between Heather and Jesus Christ.

I am cool with that.

[RetroLounge]

8. "I am now somewhere between Heather and Jesus Christ."

:applause:

:hi:

4. I have no idea. But I feel confident I could make up some really complicated bullshit

with no connection to reality

[DarkTirade]

18. ... actually I think that right there usually describes at least half of an internet argument right

there. :)

[XemaSab]

23. Go for it

:)

[struggle4progress]

26. OK. It all begin innocently enough with the

killed squirrel. Some people thought the squirrel was killed for stealing flags. Other people thought Kali killed the squirrel with a machete. But nobody talked openly about it and the whole thing festered a while, with a few veiled snarky comments like I betcha Kali might be interested! or What a Coincidence! I just moved MY chicks to their new Crib and the more hostile The load is a large rock crusher. As the tension grew, everyone was forced to choose sides and began to post threats, like Lots of rain here lately which resulted in lots of displaced snakes and references to the home addresses of bulletin-board enemies Elm Street ? (Just a little bit to the east). By this time, even Ptah had joined the turfwar, screaming Get off of my lounge. Now, after only two weeks, just about every thread has a secret hidden subtext about that poor dead squirrel

[MilesColtrane]

5. Like watching a reality show in which someone has scrambled all of the episodes

Except we don't get to vote anybody off the island/out of the house.

[NJmaverick]

6. Wondering why the lounge is looking like a Nickelodeon TV series?

[LostinVA]

7. There really isn't any

[Dr. Strange]

9. It all started when taterguy left the seat up.

That's the important thing to know here.

[DarkTirade]

19. Yeah, but who accidentally fell in as a result?

That's when the real drama starts.

[Kali]

10. done

Just kidding. I think it is shit between a crowd and another smaller crowd that don't like each other because of real and/or perceived insults. (is that generic enough?)

I am afraid I enjoy posts from both sides (along with posts from people not in either group) so it is a little distressing. Wish they would find a common "enemy" and join forces for the good of all lounge humor!

[cwydro]

22. I know what you mean.

I enjoy posts from just about everyone on DU (not so much in GD, lol!) and hate to feel someone might think I am taking another (or ANY) side just because of what thread I post in.

[Renew Deal]

49. Was anyone from the sports forum banned?

I thought this post was going to be about one of the nuts posting in there.

[UndertheOcean]

11. what drama ?

[Shell Beau]

12. Funky stuff

[LostinVA]

13. Whatever -- we started a thread about you

[Shell Beau]

16. I guess I am out of the clique? Man, I didn't last long at all!

x(


:P

Or at least I may be once y'all hear me talk! :hide:

[LostinVA]

21. You've obviously never heard anyone from Western NC

One of my BFF's is from Western NC. Your drawl won't be thicker than his, just different.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

62. Dear Shell...

I keep meaning to tell you how much I love the picture of your beautiful daughter. She is soooooo adorable. I want to squish her cheeks and kiss her!

xoxo
QoC

[Shell Beau]

63. Ha! Thank you so much! I can never hear that too much!

;)

[Jamastiene]

15. Here's an easy one-size-fits-all answer for ya:

Same shit. Different day.
And I didn't even need to PM it to ya.
You're welcome. :P

[Lex]

17. Sharks vs. Jets

[Deep13]

20. And maybe c.c. me while you are at it.

I am on line for a few minutes and then off again so I just see fragments.

[triguy46]

24. Being ignored by more people than anyone else in the lounge...

hell if I know. Just another day in the lounge. But I'm pretty sure it has something to do with this:

<a href="" target="_blank"><img src="" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>

[KamaAina]

25. Okay, there's this Danish prince who's kind of indecisive...

oh, wait a minute, that's Hamlet. :P

[arcadian]

27. Beekeeping

[Kali]

28. ...

:spray:

[ghostsofgiants]

29. Idiocy and douchebaggery mostly.

And people in general needing to grow the fuck up. (Much like every other bit of drama in this place.) x(

[XemaSab]

30. So it all started when Boone told Jack and Sayid that Sawyer had Shannon's meds...

:hide:

[ghostsofgiants]

34. Pretty much.

I need to watch that shit over (again) from the beginning and make it last until January somehow.

[arcadian]

37. Rewatching season 1

Need to buy 2 and 3, but we have 4. Hopefully will be done by the time season 5 is ready for sale which will be as you say around the 1st of the year.

[krispos42]

31. Perhaps some sort of wall-mounted flowchart would be better.

Got a spare wall floating around?

[Dr. Strange]

43. No flow chart, but I got a graph.

[cherish44]

32. Well it's something along these lines...

Oh, my God! That is so unfair! This is like, well sexual harassment! If you like me why don't you just say so? God, this is exactly like the time Miss Rennig, who everyone knows is a total lesbian, made Candice Burton stay behind after PE, started telling her off for gobbing on Sunita Geschwani's hair. But everyone knows she only made her stay late because she wanted to get off with her, cuz when she was telling her off her legs were wide open and Candice reckons she could see her spider. No, but, yeah, but, no, but, yeah, but, no, but, yeah but I know because I'm not wasting police time because you know Micha? Well, she saw the whole thing, right, because she was bunking off school because she was gonna go down the wimbley and get off with Luke Griffiths, only she never because he's been trying to grow a moustache but it just looks like pubes, so she got off with Luke Torbet instead, only don't tell Bethany that because she's liked Luke Torbet ever since she flashed her fanny at him during Home Ec'. Oh my god, like call me!

[Heidi]

33. VICKY!!!!!!!!

I love you madly, gf!!!! :*

[Lethe]

35. i got drunk and said some things i'm not proud of

but i hope the Lounge is like a Hemingway character in the fact that everyone is drunk in those novels and says stupid things a la The Sun Also rises.

[sohndrsmith]

36. There's lounge drama? I didn't even know that, much less what it's about...

I hope it's nothing too serious... : (

[Tektonik]

38. God this crap is unraveling much too fast.

People are getting banned, and the worst ones remain untouched. :(

[Rhythm]

40. That happens far too often...

:banghead:

[Crabby Appleton]

41. Word -nt

[Renew Deal]

46. That's what I was thinking when I saw you post this.

:evilgrin:

:pals:

[Dogtown]

39. As sand through the hourglass

these are the "Days of Our Lounge"...

[Fleshdancer]

42. One of the locked threads has a screenshot that told me everything I need to know

After seeing the screenshot and realizing who was banned, the pieces fell into place pretty quickly...it is NOT a pretty (or fair) picture IMO.

I'm not involved in this drama at all but I'm pretty pissed with the outcome. :(

[Renew Deal]

47. Where do we find this?

:shrug:

[merh]

51. and basing your judgment on the screen shot isn't fair

did you see the entire thread? Were posts made that precipitated the post that was saved by screen shot?

I think the mods and the admins have a whole lot more knowledge that what can be seen in a screenshot.

[Fleshdancer]

67. I'm not sure what could justify what was said on the screen shot

I have a PM waiting to explain it to me and when I'm ready to read it I will. I'm sure a lot of horrible things were said on all sides, but damn. What I saw was still pretty bad regardless. As for the rest of the thread, a lot was deleted before I had a chance to read everything. I really don't want to insert myself into all of this though so this will be the last time I ever talk about it. The less drama, the better. :)

[Midlodemocrat]

68. +1

No justification on the planet to post what was said in that thread. It was horrific. You are right.

[edbermac]

44. It was all about whether or not Deckard was a replicant.

Geez, get a grip around here people. It's only a friggin' movie! (He wasn't, BTW)

[arcadian]

48. Fuck I haven't even seen TRON yet,

Thanks for ruining it. :eyes:

[mix]

69. he isn't? i always wondered n/t

[QueenOfCalifornia]

45. IBTL

these threads are being locked like crazy

[WildEyedLiberal]

50. Me too... I saw the "clique wars" yesterday but apparently something else went down?

WTF? Someone got TS'd?

[Renew Deal]

52. Here's what I've figured out.

flvegan was banned for saying this: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8821552&mesg_id=8821673

in this thread: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=8820857

Is that right? Now, who are the "two assholes" that survived? And who's got Teflon? hmmmm :think:

[WildEyedLiberal]

54. Good God

I have a feeling there's a lot of deleted/erased shit out there, too. It seems... odd... that he'd say something like that in that thread out of the blue.

[Renew Deal]

64. Apparently there's some back story

Here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=8808511

And here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=8809910

[Fran Kubelik]

53. Someone called someone something

Which, to be fair, she is. And now he is banned.

[Shell Beau]

55. Oooh I got confused there for a second. I thought you were saying

what that girl called the other girl was true! But what you are saying is that what the banned person called the other person is true? Wait, I am confused! :rofl:

[Fran Kubelik]

56. I only just heard about all this, but...

...I think what was said about Leftymom was sick and cruel and as high schoolish as it gets. I was horrified to read it. The poster who posted that should be ashamed.

[Shell Beau]

57. It was pretty nasty.

[Fran Kubelik]

58. Nasty doesn't even begin to describe it.

[LostinVA]

59. Can I download that picture of Bella?

I think it's so cute. It always makes me smile.

[Shell Beau]

60. Absolutely!!!

:bounce: :7

[ScreamingMeemie]

66. Not to mention banned, along with all the other little cutie mctooty pantses

who think they're so funny.

Grow the hell up already, asses.

[Pacifist Patriot]

65. I'm lost too, but I figure I'll just stay in the dark. Sometimes it's better that way.
