Forum: The Lounge

As suggested by Astroboy14, let's get the ball rolling here - Is that or is that not a fine-looking boobie?

Do you lurk here or at the Dope or any of the other boards? What would encourage you to posts more? If you did lurk at the Dope how long have you lurked there? What do you like about the various board? Do you visit the snarkpit to find...

Clearly something needs to be done here. I've conquered Chat in the name of The Dreaded Long-Necked One and we can't be having you having hostile types right on my Northern border. So I've decided to annex both forums. Congratulations...

I have stolen the breasts of the Giraffers. Let us gather all of the boobs here, where they can be safe and watched over.

So, the two of you are going out and splurging on a meal. Where to? Only been there once, but have vowed to return, The Melting Pot is a fondue place near my house. Absolutely the best service I have ever experienced, the food was great,...

Insane ramblings, random acts of bigotry, e-mail forwards. Post them here. I will start. Insane Chicken Owner posted: I'm opposed to all seat belt laws. I feel its an invasion of privacy and a violation of our constitutional rights. I pay the...

It is a Canadian tradition that outdoor shoes come off the minute you walk in the door to your house (somewhat relaxed in summer, but strictly adhered to in winter). When we go to a house party in winter, you either bring a pair of house shoes along...

what evidence is there that our respective governments wouldn't use every means possible to keep "the public" from finding out?

Anybody else notice that?

Avoiding the obvious ones like stocks or horse betting tips, I'd give the 18 year old me the following advice: 1) Stop going to your parents' church. You haven't believed it since you were 8 or 9; every year you delay admitting it to yourself...

So, today a guy got his girlfriend LASIK at my clinic as a birthday present. He set up the appointment for her last week (without her knowing), came in early this morning to give us a gift bag, balloons, and card to give her, and then brought her...

Or, another Rhymer poll. Today's imaginary protagonist is named, for no particular reason, Leroy. Here's the sitch: Leroy's a passenger on a cruise ship in the Atlantic. One day, when they ship is about midway between London & New York, there's...

Please choose a single candidate from the list below.

Go ahead. Ask me anything. I promise I won't kill you afterward.

Life is a watermelon. Yeah.

Your own picture if you have it, or one from the internet. Here's the model I had...a 1983 Honda Civic 1300 FE. The FE stood for "fuel economy," and it did get some awesome mileage. :) Mine was a darred/burgundy color, though.

"Steal" is in quotes, so back off, all you moral types. What I'm referring to is all the freebie stuff that is available for customers. In hotels, I regularly strip the room of every shampoo, body lotion, and conditioner bottle I can get, even...

I've been studying kanji using Slime Forest Adventure (it's a free RPG game). I've learned to recognize about 200 kanji, although I still need to learn how to pronounce them and stuff.

I'm curious about this - 21 seems a really long time to wait for adults to be able to drink legally. Does anyone know the reasons for this? (For the record,the legal drinking age in Canada is 18 or 19, depending on the province.)

...he keeps a vial of antimatter hanging from his rearview mirror. It doesn't react with the normal matter in the vial and destroy North America because he's stared it down.

I miss you! I even baked you a (NSFW) cake!

Just of of curiosity. Sometimes you meet them at the closing table, or maybe when you went to see the house they were there. Sometimes you still get mail for them. So that's it, do you know the names of the people who owned your home before you.

In the "What is your local?" thread many people talk about the pubs and bars within walking distance of home. We come from a wide range of places and probably have a wide range of fitness, so I'd like to ask what does "walking distance" mean to...

I noticed last night just as I was putting Tasha to bed that she had a giant lump on her face. This thing came up suddenly because she had been all over me earlier and I never saw it. First thing I thought was she got something lodged between her...

Pretty cool. Hope they sign up as "Leprechaun." Happy St. P to y'all.

WW2 (many to choose from), but this is one of my favourites, Sgt. H. A. Marshall of the Calgary Highlanders. I wish I was that manly. Spanish Civil War, Federico Borrell Garcia shot dead: Any more?

Avatars are possible on this software, but they are currently disabled. I know they don't have them on the other board, but I think they work nicely, if not abused. (But note that if I had an avatar it would not necessarily be my real likeness).

I go to Hooters because I like the wings

Any suggestions?

It seems to be standard in many European countries and throughout Asia to remove ones shoes before entering someone's home. It's not a tradition here, unless your shoes are muddy, to remove them when entering someone's home.

Vox posted the link to this test in chat, but then completely failed to start a thread about it. :fist: So here it is. My scores: EXTRAVERSION...............41 ..Friendliness.............24 ..Gregariousness...........39 ...

Just a little game. Each poster is to answer the previous poster's challenge, with a simple yes or no answer. And then post their own challenge. So a sample exchange might be: Poster #1: Would you eat peanut butter and pickle...

Always loved the cliche of someone learning through therapy that they hate their mother. But...might you actually hate your mom? Just asking.

Being posted on Mellophant and Giraffe Board. Look, I know there is bad blood between the two boards. I know that certain posters have problems with people on the other board. But all this sniping and bringing up old shit needs to stop. It...

As in rooms and odd places, rather than restaurants or things like that.

After a long disappearance Why Not just showed up at the Dope. I hope she comes back here too.

Either widely accepted stories that are passed on as factual, while being nothing of the sort, or better still, stories where the facts as generally reported are true, but still are used in a misleading manner or to support false conclusions. ...

I don't like Chocolate Chip cookies.

Inspired by this thread, the consensus is that Jon Gosselin of Jon and Kate Plus 8 looks like one of the most miserable, henpecked dudes of all time. The question became how he'd end it all, which resulted in this poll.

At the very beginning of Stephen King's apocalyptic novel, "The Stand," the young guard at the military facility that created and accidentally released the super-virus that kills most of the world's populaton is supposed to stay at his post (and the...

There are many talented Seths in the world. Gods, biblical figures, stoned comic actors, all have been known by the great name of Seth. But who is the greatest Seth of all? Which one truly owns the name and can be recognized without any last...

I nominate hatesfreedom! Who's with me?

Mine kind of is, and kind of isn't. I was obsessed with becoming a geologist until I was about 14, and I always knew I wanted to be a scientist. But our family got a computer when I was a teenager, and I then became obsessed with that, so now I'm...

Nothing makes my ears perk up more than hearing people talk about places they have been, and if I discover that someone likes to travel they always become more interesting in my eyes. I am from the United States (in Alabama for now) and have been to...

Does anyone still hold to the legend that celebrities die in threes? Can anyone remember an especially note-worthy threesome to kick in close proximity? Is Billy Mays in anyway popular enough to be considered a celebrity when compared to MJ? ...

As you age, somewhat gracefully, just remember I'll always be your much younger and much prettier sister! :smug: Have a great birthday! I'm adding the panda because I like pandas, and I'm pretty sure "bye" is Chinese for Happy Birthday. :bye:

M_Westerhutch. Who is a very good friend of mine, and a really cool chick. Also, she has no idea who Ed Zotti is. :LOL:

Obviously, this is something that's going to vary a lot based on location, as well as individual tastes, but basically I just want to hear where various Mellos rank their air conditioner, if they use one. Is your air conditioner a necessity,...
