Official Lounge Loser Role Call! Here's how it works...

[Danger Mouse]

Do you fail at life? Are you tired of your threads and polls sinking like stones? Are you sick of not being someone's favorite DUer, not having songs dedicated to you, not being someone someone wants to have dinner with? Are you just plain unpopular?
Then join myself, Kajsa, and the other Lounge losers in forming a new club for the forgotten and unwanted :P
Check in here. I'm kind of depending on Kajsa to tell me how all of this works, but if you posted in last night's loser thread, this is the place to turn your support for our anti-clique clique into terminal unpopularity and immortality as an official Loser!
:)

[Manifestor_of_Light]

1. Hi there!!! Can I join?

I'm an underachieving overachiever.

[Danger Mouse]

3. Welcome! You're the first to officially join our prestigious organization!

:hi: say a little bit about yourself, if you're willing.

[gemdem]

2. Sergeant at Arms gemdem reporting

and ready to call the roll. :+

[Danger Mouse]

4. Welcome! Glad to have you among us!

:hi:
Feel free to say a bit about yourself. I want us to mingle! Mingle, people!

[Kajsa]

5. Hello one and all,

Actually, this is the first roll call we've had, so
it's pretty simple,

you just sign in with your post.

Welcome, all Losers, Outcasts, Oddballs, and assorted Misfits.

You have found a home!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

6. Why not say a bit about yourself? I will as well.

...eventually :P

[Kajsa]

22. He-he, OK.

I, Kajsa have been on the outside looking in since I can remember.

First I have a "weird" name, didn't seem to fit in with any group
had "weird" interests, "weird" this "weird" that,

So, I started finding other "Outcasts" at school and we bonded.

Another edit----Later, history avenged us,
we fit in with----- the hippies!!! Yah!!!

I've been " Outcasting" ever since.

If you can relate, you belong here .

Sorry, I type slow, it's one of my "weirdness" things.

}(

[Danger Mouse]

41. A bit about myself.

I, Elrond Hubbard, was unpopular among even the unpopular :P
So I was pretty much just a dick to everyone. Realized that if I said really mean and hurtful things to people, it brought me some form of popularity, if only because people would say 'Wow, what horrible thing is EH going to say next?'
And in college...I found a nice group of dorks, dweebs, and geeks to hang out with. Not the nerds though...the nerds at my alma mater were another matter entirely...
file photo:

the legend says that those who traverse to the bottom levels of the library at Johns Hopkins University late at night come out looking like this:

I'm just a permanent member of the fringe element.

[Kajsa]

48. You qualify, Elrond!

Yeeow -those are some nasty photos!!

:scared:

[Danger Mouse]

50. Lol, sorry...couldn't help myself =P

Really, the lower levels of JHU were scary...but they were free of C.H.U.D.s...
at least as far as I know...

[deepthought42]

7. I'm a loser baby!

I'm tired of being an unofficial loser, I wanna be an OFFICIAL LOSER! :silly:

[Danger Mouse]

11. Congratulations...it's official! You're a LOSER!

Welcome :) :hi:

[deepthought42]

16. YEA!!!! I finally belong!

:toast: Many thanks! :toast:

[Danger Mouse]

21. You're very welcome!

:toast: :party:

[deepthought42]

38. I'm so excited...I can't handle all the excitement...

"Sarah, you've just become an official loser. What are you gonna do now?"

"I'm going to bed!"


Goodnight my fellow freaks and weirdos! :hi: :silly:

[Danger Mouse]

46. Goodnight, fellow loser! Sleep well!

Looking forward to your participation in our...cult...er i mean...shit...pretend you didn't read that part.

[deepthought42]

127. Oooo I've always to be part of a...

uh, er, *coughcultcough*. Just as long as it doesn't involve killing myself and something about spaceships...lol ;)

[TOhioLiberal]

8. TOhioLiberal...

...Still trying to be popular, any way I can.

[Danger Mouse]

13. Popularity through UNpopularity? Very crafty, my friend...

works for me! Welcome :hi:

[TOhioLiberal]

23. Well if you get a bunch of people to sign up...

...wouldn't we, by default, become popular? Damn that's way too deep. :P

[Danger Mouse]

30. No, because society would still shun us. We'd just be popular among other losers

So put THAT in your pipe and smoke it!

[TOhioLiberal]

40. But if we're popular...

...who gives a crap about 'society'? :)

[Danger Mouse]

44. This is true.

Point well taken ;)

[Danger Mouse]

9. It would be SO ironic if this thread dropped like a rock. LOL

Just watch it happen. :banghead:

[deepthought42]

12. Story of my life...

Maybe I'll just keep posting...nothing else to do....lol

[CBHagman]

10. Hey, I even failed to post in the loser thread!

Does that make me eligible?

[Danger Mouse]

15. That makes you exceptionally eligible ;)

Welcome to the losers! :hi:

[CBHagman]

19. Thank you!

It's liberating to embrace one's loserhood. :woohoo:

[SPKrazy]

14. Here! SPK is here

let's get this party started

[Danger Mouse]

20. Hey gang, look who's here...it's our pioneer...

you know, if you've ever seen the musical 'Assassins' it applies to our little crowd so well :)
welcome, buddy. you're among giants! giants of loserdom!

[SPKrazy]

24. Glad To Be A Pioneer Of Loserdom

I'm now known for something

:rofl:

[Kajsa]

42. Whoa! Southpaw is in da house.

Raising the roof and
bringin it DOWN!

:rofl:

Welcome, Southpaw.

:hug:

Love That Smilie!

[The Traveler]

17. Your thread is doomed.

I just posted to it. :)

So, like, this is where I sign up????

[Danger Mouse]

25. You've come to the right place, thread killer.

Welcome to the loser lounge. Or something. :hi:

[The Traveler]

31. Thanks!

That's really great, man! Appreciate it! Hey ... wait a minute ... people are still posting to this thread.

I can't even kill a thread anymore.

What a loser ...

:banghead:

[Danger Mouse]

34. As I said before...loser threads, when populated by losers

are surprisingly resilient.

[The Traveler]

59. We are mighty

in the free exercise of our patheticism. (Is that a word.) :shrug:

[BuelahWitch]

18. I'm here!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

27. Love your sig line! Welcome!

:hi:

[libnnc]

26. Me me me!

That be me!

:toast: :party: :hippie:

[Danger Mouse]

28. Welcome to our upstanding organization!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

29. Pathetic loser, desperately craving acceptance.

My threads sink like stones and I don't have songs dedicated to me and I've never been able to hang out with the popular kids. I guess the best place for me (other than a convent or a tarpaper shack in the woods) is an anti-clique clique where I can be terminally unpopular with a bunch of other terminally unpopular people.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

32. but tarpaper shacks are cool!

in lieu of that, welcome! like the name. :hi:

[Kajsa]

35. Welcome!

You are in the right place!

:hi:

[qnr]

33. Sign me up. n/t

[Danger Mouse]

36. Done, and done. Welcome to our secret society of sad sacks!

[Ariana Celeste]

37. I admit it.

I'm a loser. Where's my cookie? :D

[Kajsa]

39. We gotta work on the refreshments.

It's our first roll call, ya know!

:evilgrin:

Welcome to our humble group.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

43. ADMIT? Declare it proudly!

Wear it like a badge! We losers do not hide! We sing!

[S n o w b a l l]

45. Checking in!

I even found a little smiley thingy for us! :bounce:

[Danger Mouse]

47. Lol, beautiful...

Congratulations, and welcome to our group ;)

[Kajsa]

49. That's a great smiley!

Thanks and Welcome!

:hi:

[AlCzervik]

51. can i still join? My threads are mediocre at best, i aspire to get a gentleman's "C"

i am no ones favorite du'er or even on their top 50 list. Thats my resume, look i used vellum, thats gotta count right?

[Kajsa]

54. You are so in---

Welcome my friend,

Where the outcasts are the winners!

[AlCzervik]

56. excellent---i found my special purpose.

[Danger Mouse]

68. Welcome, fellow loser, to the home for losers of every type.

[mvd]

52. I'm here

I wouldn't call myself unpopular, but I'm really not part of any clique. I guess I'm most known for my music threads, liberal politics, and time as moderator. I also am still looking for a job or business to start, so I'm not set in life yet.

[Kajsa]

55. If you're not part of a clique,

and you sound like an independent soul to me,

You're in---

Welcome!

:D

[mvd]

58. Thanks!

I also never get mentioned on those popularity-type threads.. doesn't bother me. I remain myself.

[Kajsa]

69. That's the important thing.

And it's also one of the hardest things to do
here in life.

;-)

[CBHagman]

96. Hi, mvd!

I don't much care for those threads either. :hi:

[Danger Mouse]

62. Loserdom has many ways and means, and we welcome all

who call themselves one of us. Anybody can be a loser!

[texanwitch]

53. I never wanted to be a member of a clique, so that makes me a

anti-anti clique clique.

Sometimes my threads to well, sometimes they don't.

I just like hanging out in the Lounge.

:hi:

[Kajsa]

57. You're in the right place!

Welcome, dear lady.

:hi:

[texanwitch]

64. Thank you.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

60. Welcome :)

:hi:

[texanwitch]

65. Many thanks.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

67. Glad to have you with us, texanwitch =)

[texanwitch]

73. Glad to be here Elrond Hubbard.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

74. Aw, I like making you guys happy

:)
:hug:

[SPKrazy]

77. And Some Of Us

lurve you TW!

:loveya:

[texanwitch]

86. Hey there Southpawkicker

Glad to say hello before you have to go to bed.

:hug:

[SPKrazy]

89. Absotively So!

I'm not going yet, although my goal is 11 CST tonight

:woohoo:

:hi:

[texanwitch]

90. It will be more like midnight.

I had trouble last night with the cable, no computer.

I was not happy.

Had to drive to work, damn you cable company.

[SPKrazy]

93. Bummmer

We had snow, and a little ice on the ground last night and this morning. I went to work where it was nice and warm.

No DU at work :(

but damn those cable companies anyway.

:pals:

[texanwitch]

95. I couldn't, had a company person there watching.

That is why I like to work from home.

I had to change clothes and everything,I was wearing my sweats.

I was not happy, every crappy driver in Houston was out last night.

Last night was not good.

[SPKrazy]

100. Did You Have Bad Weather?

or were all the crappy drivers just celebrating the Wednesday night crappy drivers club?

:rofl:

[texanwitch]

101. It was raining, so everyone likes to drive fast.

Houston has people from all over, and all of them are crappy drivers.

Turn signals, what is that. I always use mine.

I just love it when some fool makes a sudden right hand turn without using the turn signal on a rainy night.


I don't like driving in Houston.

[SPKrazy]

103. Do You Still Think You Might Move To Austin?

of course they drive crappy there too.

[texanwitch]

104. There is no escaping crappy drivers.

They are everywhere.

I drove for a living and had to take a drivers course, we couldn't have tickets or accidents.

Being a good driver is not that hard.

[SPKrazy]

111. No, but being a bad driver takes no effor whatsoever

and being very careless, or impaired in some way.

[texanwitch]

115. I learned to drive when I was 8 years old on my grandparents farm.

I was driving on the farm to market roads at 12 years old.

I drove my Grandarent's old 49 Chevy pickup truck, that was a truck.

[SPKrazy]

117. I Learned When I Was 14

no driving when you did. That's amazing.

[texanwitch]

120. On the farm you learn to drive young.

The cattle have to have their hay, Grandpa and I would load the hay in the back of the truck.

Grandpa would feed the cattle and I drove the truck.

[yewberry]

61. I would love to join

if even one of you would check out my "hypothetical" poll.

Just one.

[Danger Mouse]

63. Send me a link, and I'm there.

Alrighty?

[yewberry]

91. Oi Oi Oi

My sadly (and maybe rightfully ignored) poll.

So sad.

[Danger Mouse]

269. I voted in your poll and posted, though late (sorry!) But I did!

[Kajsa]

66. I'll check it out, too!

Inquiring minds and all----

[yewberry]

94. Inquire no longer.

It's nice to have offers!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x6134688

I'm feeling the love!

[Manifestor_of_Light]

70. you can come to my art colony when i get the house fixed up

Got a house in the country where I hope arty types can do their thing and hang out and we can all laugh, listen to the birdies sing, and have fun. I haven't moved there yet though.

[Danger Mouse]

71. A beautiful idea...

...i like :)

[Kajsa]

72. Oh, that sounds great!

Thank you for the invitation.
It sounds like a great place, just perfect
for us!:pals:

We have the nicest people signing up here!

:grouphug:

[SPKrazy]

79. Sounds Cool

an artist colony

I could become an artist

or at least a colonist

:shrug:

:hi:

[Kajsa]

75. Well, we got ourselves flaming, again.

So far, we've had a pretty good turnout.

:7

[Pushed To The Left]

76. We can be like the JOB Squad in WWE!

For those who aren't wrestling fans, the JOB Squad was a wrestling faction in the WWE in the late 90's of lower-card to mid-card wrestlers that never received a "push" and were known for "doing the job" (wrestling lingo for losing). Some of the JOB Squad members were Gillberg, Al Snow, Hardcore Holly, and the Blue Meanie.

[Kajsa]

82. OK!

I'm not familar with them, but it
sounds like a match.

[Danger Mouse]

83. The JOB Squad of the lounge...I like it ;)

Welcome the JOB Squad, then =)

[Left Is Write]

78. Does it seem ironic to you that, in order to free yourself from some perceived "clique",

you're creating a clique of your own?

[Kajsa]

81. That's human nature.

We all want to belong somewhere,
IMHO.

[Danger Mouse]

84. No! Yes! Of course! Perhaps!

I am fully aware of the irony. But I hate myself and wish to die a horrible and painful death, and wallowing in bitter irony is how I bring a twisted smile to my black and shrivelled heart.

[Scooter24]

80. Looks like someone needs Delilah...

:D

[Danger Mouse]

85. Ohuh?

[Kajsa]

87. Gotta sign off for a bit.

Welcome all who come here!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

88. I need to go to bed!

I'll kick the thread back up tomorrow and see how it goes.
Thanks for your help, and good night!

[Kajsa]

106. Good night,Elrond.

You're welcome.

It was fun working together!

:pals:

[momophile]

92. looks like maybe I should join. my shoe thread just sunk.

what? don't people like shoe threads?

[S n o w b a l l]

97. I'll kick it for ya....

:hug:

[S n o w b a l l]

99. hehehehe!!

I just realized the irony of that...a member of the loser's club kicking a sinking thread.

:rofl: I even reply to my own posts! l-o-s-e-r

[Danger Mouse]

270. Some people just LOVE shoe threads...

perhaps a little TOO much ;)
but you are most welcome among our ranks :)

[salin]

98. I'm a has-been, a forgotten... does that count?

Can i join?

[Kajsa]

107. You sure can!

Welcome to our group,

:hi:

[salin]

112. Thanks for the welcome!

:toast:

[Danger Mouse]

271. Has-beens are the losers of tomorrow...and are heartily welcomed

among the never-beens and the never-will-bes :)

[salin]

364. indeed

as we are all the same :-). I would say, however, that the 'has been' isn't that I was ever a 'big deal' but that back when I was a loungie the forum was so small that most posts resulted in conversations. Just wanting to point out that I fit in with the never-beens and never-will-bes ... just was here at a time when those catagory of folks were the norm. :D

Perhaps this thread will start making that be the norm, again. :D

[BlueStorm]

102. Ok I'm in. n/t

[Kajsa]

108. Great!

A big welcome to you, too!

;-)

[Danger Mouse]

272. Congratulations.

You made the right choice.
Now just send a blood sample, 10,000 dollars, and a sample of brain tissue to...
whoops.
Scratch that part.
:)

[Wapsie B]

105. Yo! Terminal wallflower, soft-spoken introvert, lone-wolf

checking in!

:)

[Kajsa]

109. You'll fit right in, here.

Welcome, bushwentawol!

[Wapsie B]

114. Thank you Kajsa!

:hi:

[salin]

110. but a fellow 'free associator'

who I always recognize. Not in the lounge much - but when I am- and a FA is up - always appreciate when you check in there. :D

Maybe we form our own 'FA Geek clique' though it would be very, very small...

[Wapsie B]

113. Yes I love those threads!

I see a word and another just pops into my head. 'FA Geek clique' sounds cool to me. I'm in. :)

[salin]

116. a favor?

I have limited DU time - and oft only have time to spend in LBN OpEds (yes I am an overall geek) - don't always get into the lounge so I think I miss out on alot of the FA fun. Maybe you could drop me a pm when these threads get going? (How FA Geek clique am I sounding, now?) I love the 'think/react/type' action of the threads. :hi:

[Wapsie B]

119. Sure!

Yes the think/react part of FA threads are the attraction to me. When I see a FA thread I'll pm you. :hi:

[salin]

121. Much appreciated

:D Thanks. :toast: to the FA geeks clique! (two people can make a clique if we want to, right?!?!)

[Wapsie B]

122. Why yes we can make a clique.

A very exclusive one as it were.

:toast:

[Danger Mouse]

273. I've always been a lone wolf type myself, I tend to prefer soltitude...

anyways, welcome :)

[Kajsa]

118. I'm going to bed, myself.

Again, welcome one and all who find a
home here!

You're a great group!

We'll check back with you soon.

:grouphug:

[QMPMom]

123. QMPMom reporting and ready for duty, Sir!

Hellio Elrond! How are you?

[Danger Mouse]

276. I'm okay, getting over a cold.

But happy to see you here :) Thank you for helping, and for participating :)

[NuttyFluffers]

124. i'm a 9th level post ninja.

i assassinate posts into oblivion. one post and less than 10 posts later it tends to dry up and fade away. hopefully i don't do the same here, but i forewarn...

[Danger Mouse]

278. You can't kill this thread so easily, but you're welcome to try ;)

A thread killer of your skill will be most useful to our purposes :evilgrin:

[datasuspect]

125. the startling absence of "other" voices

is quite refreshing in these threads.

[Danger Mouse]

274. The thing I love about these threads...is we get to see...

so many people you never even knew were in the Lounge :)

[Justpat]

126. Old Broad checking in.

According to my mother, I have always been a born loser.
She told me on many occasions that I was delivered backwards
and have been the wrong way ever since.


:hi:

[CBHagman]

132. You've come to the right place!

And we may even be from the same family. :-)

[Justpat]

133. Uh Oh.

Don't tell them where to find me.

[Kajsa]

135. You, dear lady, have a coveted place

in our humble group.

Welcome!

[u4ic]

138. You march to the beat

of your own drum...


But you are NOT a loser, Old Broad!:hug: :loveya:

[Danger Mouse]

275. Here's your commemorative pin, and funny little hat. :)

We're glad to have you.

[deepthought42]

128. Uh oh, this thread is starting to sink...

But then, should we be surprised? ;)

C'mon, don't give up, ya losers! :P ;)

[Danger Mouse]

279. This is only the beginning, really. This thread will eventually die out...

what I hope happens is that for the most part, those of us that met each other here continue to post, have a good time, and not feel like we have to be part of the 'popular crowd' to have a good time here.
It's like Communism! It's perfect! What could possibly go wrong?? Ha ha ha ha...oh wait.

[buddhamama]

129. i am a Lounge Loser

i have been since day one of the Lounge and i continue to be so. :hi:

[deepthought42]

130. Woohoo! Congrats!

:toast:

[buddhamama]

199. thank you. i am happy to be here amongst the loser !

:hi: :toast:

[Kajsa]

136. Buddhamama! Welcome-

You rock, lady!

I'm so glad to see you here!

:D

[buddhamama]

200. thank you for the Welcome

I am Happy to see you, too, and to be aomng such distinguished company.


between the two of us we rock hard. :D :hi: :yourock:

[salin]

143. but you are a researcher

premiere - boldly digging and building understanding into areas both of us initially knew almost zilch about! :D

:hi:
:loveya:

[buddhamama]

201. Hey You !!!!!

It is so good to see you. we are a formidable team with our research. of course we can not forget the other member of here our team.

to you, me and Teena- truth to power. :toast: :loveya: :hug: :loveya: :hug: :toast:

[salin]

211. Without a question

very formidable! To you, Teena and me - truth to power! :toast: :party: :bounce: :loveya:

[Danger Mouse]

280. Welcome =) Glad to have you among us!

And a mod, too! Should I be in awe? ;)

[Cobalt Violet]

131. I'm very unpopular.

Here and everywhere.

[Kajsa]

134. That's what we're here for.

Welcome, Cobalt Violet!

:hi:

[Cobalt Violet]

139. It's about time we had a lounge loser thread.

Now I feel at home in here.

[salin]

144. I don't buy it

:-)

[Cobalt Violet]

194. It's true.

I've never been in a clique in my life. :hi:

[Danger Mouse]

281. Hopefully you can find a place to belong..

here, among your fellow losers.
Don't lose heart :)

[grace0418]

137. Sign me up!

:hi:

[Kajsa]

140. You got it, Grace!

Welcome!

:hi:

[grace0418]

237. Thank you! I feel a little less lonely now.

;) :hi:

[Danger Mouse]

282. You got it!

:hi:

[Control-Z]

141. Yes

yes & yes to all your questions.

Now take a look at my name. My username = loser. And it was by accident I chose it.

It was supposed to be username: femdem, password: dancingAlone, but I managed to screw it up somehow and there was no way to fix it. Talk about a freak, not to mention pathetic, loser.

So what do you say? Do I qualify? Can I join? Please? Huh? Please?:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

If you need more evidence, shamefully, I can provide it.

[Danger Mouse]

313. Feel free to share anything you like, but don't worry...

you are welcome here :hi:

[Critters2]

142. I wasn't here for last night's loser thread, but no one has ever mentioned me in any

"name a DUer" thread. Not even the one I started! I think that qualifies me for loser status!

[Kajsa]

150. Oh hell yes!

Getting dissed and ignored on your own
" name a Duer" thread?

You've got top billing, here!

Welcome!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

314. You are most definitely qualified.

Welcome, fellow loser!

[Writer]

145. Hell, yes, do I ever belong in this thread!

I don't have the patience and time in my life to immerse myself in a clique, so I suppose I'm a loser by choice.

Besides, I'm just lurking now, anyway. ;)

I suppose this is the time I return to my hole, curl myself into a ball, and whimper at the reality of my loserly existence.

Writer the Lurker.

[Kajsa]

151. Lurk no more, Writer.

You are in with us.

Welcome!

:D

[SPKrazy]

184. You Loser!

:loveya:

[Danger Mouse]

315. Welcome, lurker!

Glad to see you :)
:hi:

[texanwitch]

146. Do we get T-shirts.

I need another t-shirt to wear.

Anybody good at design.

[SPKrazy]

148. Sure, Just Send Me Your Money

and you'll get a t-shirt!

:rofl:

it may not be the t-shirt you want!

a big L on it, with the word "Lounge" in the background. And of course the Democratic underground logo (we'd have to get permission and maybe pay for that one)

:hi:

[texanwitch]

153. Maybe we can have a contest.

The one who designs the best t-shirt is the biggest loser.

We would be the cool crowd here.

The cool crowd always has t-shirts.

[SPKrazy]

155. Mebbe We Need Virtual T-Shirts?

you know, ones we could have on our avatars?

:rofl:

a contest would be good!

[Kajsa]

154. Southpaw, I nominate you for Director of LL T-shirts.

I know you will do a splendid job.

We'll take a vote.
All in favor- Ay!

:7 :patriot:

[SPKrazy]

156. Salute Away!

I'm not taking charge of anything else right now!
:rofl:

I'm turning it over!

:hi:

[Kajsa]

160. Awww- Darn it!

:P

[SPKrazy]

163. As A Champion co-dependent

I'll co-chair the development of a shirt

:rofl:

[Kajsa]

175. LOL!

OK!

Now we gotta find a Chair.

:think:

[SPKrazy]

178. YOU!

are nominated!

:rofl:

[Kajsa]

181. No-No!

We need new,fresh faces!

But thanks for the vote of confidence!

:pals:

[SPKrazy]

182. Elrond

he's not here, so he's the chair

:rofl:

[Kajsa]

188. ROFL!

That would clinch it!

:-)

[SPKrazy]

190. We Took a vote

he lost

[Danger Mouse]

284. Black tshirts, black jeans, and sneakers. Uhm, wait,

wasn't that done before?
Uhm...

[halobeam]

147. What happens when you are the last person on the official loser thread and the thread gets lost?

:rofl: wouldn't that make that person the #1 Loser?

[SPKrazy]

158. No, The One Who Discovers It

is the #1 loser

because they didn't get to post on the loser thread at all, they really lost!

:rofl:

[halobeam]

195. Good one!

:rofl:

[Kajsa]

159. I'm gonna let Elrond answer that.

:7

[Danger Mouse]

299. You get a blue ribbon...but it's shabby...

and it has tobacco stains on it...sorry...it IS a loser ribbon, after all :)
Welcome :hi:

[SOteric]

149. Hi there! Me again.

:hi: No memos from the hive mind, -posts sink like a rock.

[Kajsa]

152. Hi SOteric!

Good to see you back here.

I've been sufficiently ignored today, too.
( not by all, though-in all fairness)

That's why I gravitate back here like a spawning salmon.

:hi:

[salin]

187. part of my 'has been' crowd

as in when the overall population was small - we could get into conversations... now large - and not here much - sorta 'has been' will *sometimes* get a response - but ONLY from if someone from the 'old days' happens to be around. :hi: I do the 'sink like a rock' thing, as well.

[SOteric]

197. Now wait...

If we're 'has beens' does that mean we have to form our own clique? -Or can we still 'represent' under the big tend of Lounge Loserdom?

:7

:hi:

Always good to see you around, -even if you think we're old.

[salin]

389. okay *I* am old

you are a spring chicken - just an *old/as in familiar* face. :D We don't need a new subclique - just a part of the bigger Lounge Loserdom clique. :D

:hi:

Likewise - always good to run across you as well. :bounce:

[Danger Mouse]

301. Welcome :)

You are now part of the NEW collective. You will now be assimilated.

[femmocrat]

157. I'm Queen of the Sinking Threads, so I'm in!

[Kajsa]

161. You are in, indeed!

Welcome!

:hi:

[SPKrazy]

165. Is This Thread Doomed Then?

doesn't seem to be yet

[femmocrat]

171. It kind of stalled for awhile though!

I thought I killed it for sure....

That's a relief! The "loser" mojo seems to have kicked in already!

Uh oh... now they will probably kick me out....

[SPKrazy]

176. Nahhh,

you can be a loser when you say you are!

:rofl:

[Danger Mouse]

316. Do you also have thread killing skills

We're looking for some good thread assassins to diversify our talent base :P
Welcome :hi:

[BarenakedLady]

162. I'm a loser in real life

Does that count?

[SPKrazy]

164. You're A Sweetheart On DU

and I suspect one in real life too!

But you can be a lounge loser like the rest of us too!

We've become a popular bunch of losers!!

:hug:

[BarenakedLady]

166. Hi you!

:hi:

Where have you been today?

[SPKrazy]

167. I've had to do this thing called work

and then I went to the gym and ate dinner, and I answered e-mails, and blah blah blah

I'm here now!

Hi ya!

:pals:

[BarenakedLady]

172. Work? wooorrrk?

Nope, doesn't ring a bell. Glad to see you now though!

:pals:

[SPKrazy]

177. Hey, Someone's Gotta Do It

It wasn't me doing it a few weeks ago apparently? :shrug: but things are better there now

:hug:

[Danger Mouse]

317. You're automatically in. But thanks for coming around...

eep, not to imply that you're a *gasp*...LOSER...or anything ;)
welcome :hi:

[Justpat]

168. Good Night, fellow Losers..

It's way past my bedtime.


:grouphug:

[MsKandice01]

169. Loser here!!

Reporting for duty!

[Danger Mouse]

325. Welcome!

Make yourself at home, fellow loser ;)

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

170. Yeah, this looks like the place ...

... got any beer?

Lounge Losers anti-clique clique?

I can hear Sinatra now ... If you can't make it here, you can't make it anywhere.

This has to be the Lounge at the end of the Universe.

[Control-Z]

186. For those of us who can't make it here -

Eek! Shit.

We are so screwn.

[Kajsa]

220. Hi dancing,

It was so good to finally meet you last night!

Everyone is welcome here.

:hi:

[Control-Z]

229. It was great

to finally meet you too, Kajsa! I am so glad I was able to make it. Now we're going to have to do lunch together just for the heck of it. We can drag KitchenWitch out with us too.

Are you going to join Pushed to the Left and me in Newport this Thursday for the "God, Women, Faith and Choice" Interfaith pro-choice event? He's posted about it in both California and Choice forums.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=217&topic_id=5026&mesg_id=5026

Anti choice protesters are expected. It could get exciting, at least for OC. I'm bring my 13 year old daughter and one of her friends. (It's never too young to start)

Let me know if you want to meet. And anyone else from OC/LA area is welcome to join us.

[Kajsa]

230. I don't know if I can make it

for sure.

When I do, I'll definitely let you know!

[Danger Mouse]

324. The Lounge at the end of the universe...I like it :)

Beer? what's your brand? :)
I'm a Guiness man myself.
:toast: :toast: :beer: :beer:

[Zookeeper]

173. I thought this was a thread about losing weight...

and I didn't qualify.

But, a thread about being a DU loser, sure....count me in!

:party:

[SPKrazy]

179. There Was A Loser Thread About Weight

but this was always about being a DU loser!

:hi:

I don't know if you qualify though :pals:

but if they ask me I'll tell them you should be here anyway

[Zookeeper]

189. I'm glad....

you have my back, Southpaw!



:pals: :yourock:

[SPKrazy]

191. you got it!

:P :evilgrin: :pals:

[Danger Mouse]

323. Losing weight? Oh goodness no...none of that happening here, sadly =P

Welcome :hi:

[GenDem]

174. I'm a little late, but better late than never.

Especially for the "Lounge Losers" roll call.:hi:

[SPKrazy]

180. Howdy Loser!

from one lounge loser to another! :hi:

[GenDem]

183. Howdy to you, too, Southpaw.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

322. You kidding? You've got like...a nice shiny high-ranking post

all waiting for you.
Of course, you're just a high ranking loser now ;)
Welcome, nonetheless, thanks for your support :hi:

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

185. Loser? or Stranger?

Music to feel lost by ...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLq7Aqd_H7g

[Danger Mouse]

321. Love Leonard Cohen...

you're SO in now :)
i love this song, too

[puerco-bellies]

192. Dear God please don't let me kill this thread..

Home at last.

[texanwitch]

193. Welcome puerco-bellies

:hi:

[SPKrazy]

196. No Death To This Thread From

anyone

:rofl:

viva la thread!?

[Kajsa]

221. Hi Puerco!

It was great to meet you last night!

This thread just won't die---
there are too many of us Outcasts here!

A big welcome to you!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

320. Like I've said many times before...

It'll take a stake, a silver bullet, and some garlic to kill this thread ;)

[Haole Girl]

198. I think I might just belong here...oh, wait a minute...

..no... I don't think I belong here, either. :(

[texanwitch]

202. O yes you do.

Welcome KC2.

You know we are looking for a design for a T-shirt.

Good at design.

[Haole Girl]

206. Maybe something with a big "L" ?

:rofl:

[texanwitch]

210. We plan on having a contest.

The one who has the best design is the biggest loser.

That will give everyone something to work for.

[Kajsa]

222. Hi KC2!

If you can relate to any part of Elrond's intro,
you belong here, dear lady.

Welcome!

:hug:

[Haole Girl]

268. Hi!

Sorry I just saw this. Thanks. :hug:

[SPKrazy]

304. Oh, You Belong Here

when you say you do!

we're exclusive in that way, you can be a member when you say you are

no special oaths to take, no creeds to memorize

just decide you are a loser and powerless over that and we'll love you in your loserdom until you can love yourself in your loserdom

or something like that? :shrug:

:hug:

[Danger Mouse]

319. How could you NOT belong here? Huh? Huh??

You belong! You don't have a choice!!! You're gettin assimilated!

[Cabcere]

203. Can I be a Loser, too?

If needed, I can totally supply copious evidence of my utter failure at life. ;)

[Cabcere]

204. Like, for instance,

the death of this thread. :blush:

[texanwitch]

205. No.

Welcome.:hi:

[Cabcere]

207. Yay, I'm a Loser!

:D Thanks texanwitch. :hi:

My Loser credentials, in case anyone's interested:
1) I was rejected thirty-one different times by thirty-one different guys for senior prom.
2) I have been pantsed by a treadmill.
3) Do you really need any more convincing? :P

[texanwitch]

208. There is no such thing as a loser in the losers club.

:pals:

[Cabcere]

209. Kind of like how there are no "family values"

in the "Family Values" party? ;)

Thanks! :pals:

[SPKrazy]

212. Better Than That

by a long shot

:pals:

[Danger Mouse]

318. Evidence, schmevidence...trust is part of our loserdom...er yeah!

You are most welcome among the loser crew, my friend!

[leeroysphitz]

213. I want a NAME when I lose.

[Danger Mouse]

309. A name? I don't follow you. I guess I'm too big a loser to understand.

Sigh :P
You are most definitely welcome here though :hi:

[XemaSab]

214. Word.

:P

[Kajsa]

224. He-he!

:7

It was great to meet you last night, XemaSab!

Welcome to our humble group.

:hi:

This thread is getting so long I'm not sure if
I've already welcomed you and a few others
before- oh well- Welcome Again!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

312. Word.

:)
:hi:

[Madspirit]

215. Cookies...

I sometimes offend people when I don't mean too. I am a leftist in Texas, which puts me in a minority. ..and someone said there are cookies. May I join?

Oh yeah....so that religion you formed isn't working out for you Elrond Hubbard? <g>
Madspirit

[Danger Mouse]

308. I wasn't selling enough sci-fi books, so I decided to form another money making scheme..

eep! Damn, gave myself away.
Oh well, too late. Line up here for your personality test!
You are most definitely welcome in our ranks :)

[Cobalt Violet]

216. It's interesting to note who hasn't posted in this thread.

I'm taking names.

[Danger Mouse]

305. It is interesting.

And certain people have started 'counter' threads...or posted snide replies...the message is clear...don't you think? :)

[ashling]

217. I am such a big loser that

a loser like you didn't even bother to say hi when I tried to start a group like this months ago. LOL

[Madspirit]

218. I'm such a big loser that

no one has even said I can join yet.

Madspirit

[Kajsa]

225. Yes, of course you can join!

If you can relate to Elrond's OP,
this is the place for you!

No official invite required- you're in!

Welcome!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

303. Really? I must've missed it. I only look at the threads started by POPULAR people =P

Welcome, regardless :hi:

[Porcupine]

219. Hey, I can cook!

I leave the kitchen looking like a tornado hit it but I'm the best cook you ever met.

[Kajsa]

227. We need good cooks!

Welcome, Porcupine!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

302. What's your speciality? :)

Good cooks are always welcome, as long as I don't have to be the one to clean up after you ;)

[racaulk]

223. Hi, I'm a loser!

Trying to make a difference and have an impact on my world...and on DU...and having little success with either! ;-)

Glad to reply to this post! :hi:

[Kajsa]

226. Welcome! AND YOU'RE ALL IN !

Everyone above and below this post-

If you can relate- you're in!

I've got to sign off for while, but I'll try to check
back later tonight (PDT).

Meanwhile, Welcome one and all.

Southpaw and Texanwitch have also been our welcome wagon
committee. They rock!

No official invite needed- you're in!

:grouphug:

[Danger Mouse]

297. The way to make a difference in the DU lounge...

requires you to compromise your dignity.
making a difference on General Discussion? Learn to fling poo really well.
The way to make a difference on R/T?
Realize that everything you say is going to offend someone.
That's just how it goes.
You're quite welcome here, however.

[ThatsMyBarack]

228. Got room for another?

I am an adult competitive figure skater. I very rarely ever win competitions. The more people in my group, the closer to the "bottom of the barrel" I end up. Even when I skate my best ever, and I think I can win, I have to deal with the major shock of coming in last/next to last.

More later.

[Kajsa]

254. You bet we do!

You're a winner here!

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

294. Am interested in hearing more :)

With us, you're a winner, even if you ARE a loser :)
Welcome :hi:

[deepthought42]

231. Oh how I've missed my fellow losers!

The weekend was spent working at job #2 and getting some pics developed from last may. Yeah it was an exciting weekend. Actually the most exciting part was sleeping in til noon on Sunday. How pathetic is that? :hangover:

[texanwitch]

241. Sounded like a good weekend to me , except for the working part.

How did the pictures turn out.

[deepthought42]

243. Oh fine, thanks. Just some pics of my (former)college roommate's graduation...

from last May...lol. I figured I had nothing else to do, I should get them developed before the disposable camera went bad...ha ha ha

[Kajsa]

255. Welcome, deepthought42.

This is the place for hardworking, forgotten souls.

:hi:

[deepthought42]

260. Well then, definately the place for me!

Working two jobs, going to grad school in the fall, and utterly alone! *melodramatic sigh* I could go for a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster. :beer:

[Giant Robot]

232. I thought reaching 1000 posts would make a difference

But it hasn't yet. Hello my name is Giant Robot and I am a loser.

[ThatsMyBarack]

235. Hiii, Giant Robot!

:hi: I reached my 1000th post two weeks ago. Where the hell was the brass band? :shrug:

[texanwitch]

242. The brass band is works every other week,

I just missed the band myself.:hi:

[Kajsa]

253. Giant Robot, you are welcome

here among friends.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

293. It doesn't make a whit of difference. The only time people pay attention to you..

is when you're new ;)
Or when you post flamebait all the time.
If you REALLY want to get attention go in the R/T forum and insult atheism/Christianity through indirect, condescending means...you'll get infamous...real quick!
Or just hang with us, the un-popular crowd :P

[SPKrazy]

300. Welcome To Loserville GR!

you're always welcome here in the loser lounge section

maybe it is a special lounge for losers?

at any rate

glad to see you loser!

:hi:

[Hugin]

233. Well, I'm finally here!

=)

[Kajsa]

251. Welcome!

I'm glad you found us.

:hi:

[Hugin]

256. Of course!

I wouldn't miss being with y'all for anything!

:howdy:

[Danger Mouse]

292. About time, loser! Welcome =)

You've got a chair waiting for you at the head of the table, my friend :hi:

[Hugin]

359. Heyas!

Nah, I'll take my usual place over by the pop corn machine.

It's warm there!

:D

:hi:

[Ms_Dem_Meanor]

234. Good morning. EH!

:hi: How are you doing this morning?

[Danger Mouse]

289. Sick! I was at work when you posted this ;)

But I'm doing well! Thanks for asking :)

[ornotna]

236. I've been in denial, I'm sorry

I am a Loser.

[Kajsa]

250. He-he!

You're in!

Love the Chris Farley tape.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

290. Do you live in a van down by the river? :)

Don't be a self-loathing loser, be a proud loser, a strong loser, a brave loser!
By the way...welcome :) :hi:

[Beer Snob-50]

238. I wish to join

I can bring a coffee cake to the next meeting to overthrow the lounge.

[Kajsa]

249. Welcome Pirate!

Ack! I don't think we're going to overthrow anyone.

:rofl:

We are looking to offer an alternative to the lost and forgotten.
The coffee cake sounds great-Thanks! :9

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

287. You had me at coffee cake...but shhh

don't talk about secret plan.
that is why secret plan is SECRET, yes?

[carly denise pt deux]

239. raises hand....me...in the corner....may I join?

I would love to be secretary of the club. I have ADD, but I can record the minutes of each meeting...provided you talk fast enough and throw something at me if you notice me daydreaming. Thanks for your consideration!
Carly

[Beer Snob-50]

240. will you bring donuts and coffee?

[deepthought42]

244. I could be the official barista. I make good foam.

:D :hangover:

[Beer Snob-50]

245. all good clubs should have offical baristas

good foam is good.

[deepthought42]

261. Damn straight! I've even got an espresso machine in the office!

Good foam is an art. I'm still working on my latte art though. Mmmmm...foooooaaaammmmmmmm.

[Kajsa]

247. Hi Carly!

Welcome!

You are our official Secretary of the LLs.

:hi:

[carly denise pt deux]

264. YIIIPPEE!!! THANKS SO VERY MUCH!!!!..........

I will definitely bring the coffee and donuts, foaming.....will have to be left to the professionals in the club!

Do I get a pledge pin? When is the official initiation?
Carly

[Kajsa]

355. ELROND! Do we have pledge pins?

Gotta run this by the Elrond.
He's the mastermind behind the LLC.

:7

[Danger Mouse]

286. Do shiny objects help?

We're most glad to welcome you among our ranks! Good luck recording the minutes, I tend to run at the mouth...in fact, I never shut up, heh :P

[SPKrazy]

295. I Got Most Of That

but I got distracted by something

now you want to be secretary of the club

what club now is this?

oh, that's right this is the lounge losers club?


You can be whatever you want to be Carly denise pt deux (I've wanted to ask what happened in part 1 but have been a little distracted and forgot)

was part 1 as good as part 2? or is part 2 better than part 1?

and what part is your favorite to be a part of for the most part, at least partly?

:shrug:

[sarge43]

246. Well, I've worked very hard all my life to be among the many,

the lowly, the losers and looking back, I must say that I've been fairly successful. I've never been in jail or rehab, but other than I've accomplished a decent share of life's screws ups and I'm never invited to galas, art shows, parties, movie premieres, Australian rat fucks or cow flop bingo games. I do believe that even if I set myself on fire in the middle of the Lounge, I'd be ignored.
So if I'm not allowed to join the Lounge Loser Clique, I'll understand; I may go postal, but I'll understand.

I would like to nominate as the LLC's patron saint, Jeffrey "The Dude" Lebowski.

[Kajsa]

257. You're in , Sarge.

As soon as our CEO, Elrond returns,
I'll run the nomination by him!



Welcome!
:hi:

[sarge43]

262. Thank you, Kajsa

I mean really, isn't this the LLC on any Saturday night?

[Kajsa]

263. You've got a point there, Sarge.

:D

[Danger Mouse]

285. The Dude is a king among misfits and losers...

and you are definitely welcome among us :)

[sarge43]

340. Thank you, Elrond

"You love me; you ...." Never mind

The great thing about The Dude is his loserhood doesn't bother him. It isn't a burden; it's a lifestyle choice.

"The usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback."

[MissMillie]

248. Gosh... you started a thread just for me

I must not be a loser after all.

[Kajsa]

258. Hi MissMillie!

It's so good to see you here!

We are all winners, here.

Welcome.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

283. Oh, you're still a loser, if you're posting here! We're glad to see you...

...be proud of what you are ;)

[Burma Jones]

252. I feel just like Pinto in Animal House...........

Neidermeyer: Hi there, fellows. Meet Ken and Lonny.
Larry: Larry.
Neidermeyer: Ken, Lonny, l'd like you to meet Mohammet,Jugdish, Sidney and Clayton. Grab a seat and make yourselves at home. Don't be shy about helping yourselves to punch and cookies.

[Kajsa]

259. Hi New_beawr,

We are very much like 'Animal House'-
only much tamer!

Welcome

:7

[carly denise pt deux]

265. I love that movie!

Carly

[Danger Mouse]

267. Fraternities were scary at JHU...

mostly a hangout for either rich kids or really really skeevy guys...wasn't my thing...stayed far away from them...
and by the way, welcome :)

[Danger Mouse]

266. Hi everybody!

I've been sick the past few days. And work is kicking my ass. And I'm having girl issues. I'm glad to see so many people here. I'll take time to personally reply to everyone, because I'm a loser with nothing better to do :P
Thanks for all your help, kjasa, witchy, and southpaw :)

[texanwitch]

277. Hope you are feeling better.

Thank you for starting the thread.

[Kajsa]

288. Welcome back, Chief!

I sure hope you feel better,soon.

This thing took off like crazy!

Texanwitch and Southpaw really helped out.

Thanks so much you two!:loveya:

:hi:

[SPKrazy]

291. So, Are Girl Issues

something that we talk about in a loser thread?

or is that in the naughty thread?

or in the ....


welcome back

sorry you're sick, hope you're better,

now get your ass to work.

You are no longer an upopular dude here, everyone wants to be a lounge loser!

:shrug:

[Danger Mouse]

328. Popular among the unpopular only =P

Don't damage my street cred!
Girl problems of this sort are best discussed on the :banghead: thread, if there is one.
'You never call me!'
Well, she never calls me either.
I don't even want to go into her bs. Lol.
I've been very busy on this thread!

[wakemeupwhenitsover]

296. I would love to join, but I'll probably be rejected

here too. :sigh:

[texanwitch]

306. Welcome to the LL.

You have found a home.

[SPKrazy]

307. No, We don't reject anyone

we're out of reject stamps

so you're in when you say you are!

:hug:

[Danger Mouse]

329. Rejected? Perish the thought.

All are welcome here.
Sorry it took me so long to reply, I've been quite busy on this thread.

[wakemeupwhenitsover]

336. Thank you all for your welcome.

I am honored to join the club. :hi:

[Danger Mouse]

338. And we're honored to have you!

:) :hi:

[Katherine Brengle]

298. *raising hand*

Every time I've posted in GD in the past few days I've gotten into fights and called names :(.

So I'm hiding in here now...

:D

[texanwitch]

310. GD is a rough place.

I started there but moved over here.:hi:

Welcome to the LL.

[Katherine Brengle]

326. In-deed, thanks :D.

Now I'm bouncing between the lounge and Stargate Atlantis vids on YouTube lol.

[SPKrazy]

311. Welcome to the loser "club"

or maybe it's a loser "gang"

or whatever

just WELCOME

:pals:

[Katherine Brengle]

327. Thankies :D I like "gang" it sounds tough.

[Danger Mouse]

330. We'll keep you safe. Watch out for the GD.

Don't feed the trogolodytes, what can I say? ;)

[Kajsa]

331. Esteemed members and all newcomers.

We're a work-in-progress here.

Our CEO is back, although under the weather
as is one of our great greeters, Southpaw.

Texanwitch( another great greeter) has helped keep this thing afloat.

Stay tuned for further announcements.
We have a Secretary-Carly ( I believe)
A barista---- deepthought42
A nomination for a Patron Saint-( name has slipped my mind- I'm a loser!)
A gourmet cook- Porcupine
And Pirate who hopefully will still
bring coffeecake, even though we're not overthrowing the Lounge.

If I forgot anyone,I apologize profusely- you are all so talented!

We'll get this together.

Welcome all who come with heavy hearts!

May the roll call continue!

:grouphug:

[Danger Mouse]

332. I finally finished saying hi to EVERYONE...

please let me know if I missed ANYONE!
Okay, I'm going to go die now :P

[Kajsa]

333. You are incredible!

I've forgotten the names of our volunteers!

I'm a loser!!!

Sarge didn't want to overthrow the Lounge
Pirate did!

Ack!

Pretty soon we're going to need sign-up sheets!

You go and die for a bit, Elrond.

I'm going to sign off in a bit, myself.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

334. Thanks for your help, you're twice as incredible!

You rest well, and I'll try and get some sleep! Take care!

[Kajsa]

335. You too, Elrond.

Thanks for the kind words!
:D

I couldn't have done it without SouthPaw and Texanwitch.

We're a great group, here.

:grouphug:

[Danger Mouse]

337. Thanks SouthPaw and Texanwitch! Thanks everyone who posted

and everyone who will post in the future! You guys are fantastic :)
Ain't friends grand? :grouphug:

[sarge43]

339. Nah, I wouldn't try to overthrow the Lounge

I'd just screw that up, too. Losers accept their limitations.

[Kajsa]

344. LOL ! So sorry for the mix up, Sarge.

As I explained to Pirate, we don't want to overthrow
the Lounge, just offer an alternative for all the lost
and forgotten souls here.

And we have a boatload of them!
No one expected this turn out.

It's Fantastic!!

You're a winner here, Sarge!

:hug:

[sarge43]

346. Awww

:blush:

A winner in the LLC; that's an oxymoron?

Paraphrasing Mr Lincoln, God must love losers. He made so many of them.

[Kajsa]

352. LOL !

I love it!

:7

[deepthought42]

342. Wow...I'm touched!

This is the high point of my day... :cry:

Ok, we've got the following syrups:

Raspberry
Vanilla
French Vanilla
Caramel
Hazelnut
Pumpkin Pie
Gingerbread
Peppermint
Malibu (flavored, non-alcoholic, sorry)
Kahlua (also flavored, non-alcholic)


Also, you all should know that I am a coffee addict. I do not believe in decaf. Decaf is the devil's blend. However, should someone request a decaf drink....I will make it. Cuz I'm a professional.

LOL.

EDIT: We also have Hershey's chocolate sauce! Couldn't forget that one. *drools*

[Kajsa]

347. That's great, deepthought!

Those are some yummy syrups!:9

As soon as we get this organized,
we'll get the coffeebar going. I hoped
I used the correct noun- coffeebar,right?

But remember the words of one of our beloved Dems,

" I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat"
- Will Rogers

:7

[deepthought42]

348. Sure, coffee bar works.

I'm not picky...lol. I'm a coffee addict, not a coffee snob, as evidenced by my frequent patronage of Starbucks... ~o)

:hangover:

[Kajsa]

350. Oh My! Hey- is it true that a recent survey found

that in a blind taste test people preferred McDonald's
coffee over Starbucks?!?

I couldn't believe it- McDonalds must have gotten in
a new batch of coffee.

btw, I'm a coffee addict, too.
I like very strong, dark roast coffee.
I'm drinking it as we speak.

I've been accused of brewing "rocket fuel" in the morning.

:rofl:

[deepthought42]

353. *lmao* I'm not alone!

I don't brew the coffee in the office. If I wanted, I could order some Starbucks coffee for the office, but I don't think the others could handle it if I brewed it... :rofl:

McD's coffee...yeah....that says alot about the people in the taste test.... :rofl: Don't know a damn thing about coffee, imo. I've had people ask me for a cappucino w/no foam.... :banghead:

Or... "I'm sorry the espresso machine is closed for the night. Would you like something else?"

"Sure. Can I have a mocha?" :banghead: :banghead:


But then, I am an addict. And I get weird looks when I tell people I drink coffee black. Though right now I'm having tea (black, and really strong).

[Kajsa]

356. Cappucino with no foam?

That's sacrilege!

Black coffee is weird?
I don't think so!!



}( ( OK, I'm not sure what this smilie is, he/she just looks neat)

It's so neat being a Loser- No more worries about looking "cool"!

[deepthought42]

358. It's also impossible, but that's beside the point...lol

Or is it? A Cappucino w/no foam is a f****** latte! Sheesh people!

I got my best friend turned onto black coffee! VICTORY IS MINE! :woohoo:

Yes, now I can be as pathetic as I wanna be, without worrying about other people! Ni!

[sarge43]

354. A big mug of the Kahlua, thank you.

(If you have a bottle of the real thing hidden away, a dollop of that would be appreciated. I have to clean bird cages and my spousal unit's African Grey is in a particularly vile mood this morning and if I'm not moving at Warp Nine, there could be injuries ... blood ... pain ... you know, a loser's typical day)

[deepthought42]

357. Oh, you poor thing! Would like a Kahlua coffee?

I just happen to have a bottle of the real stuff! :beer:

[sarge43]

360. Ah, just what I need

Fueled with that JP-4, that bird won't lay a beak on me.

Thanks

[deepthought42]

375. It's what I'm here for!

Perhaps I should pick up some real Malibu too... :beer: :evilgrin:

[meegbear]

341. Sign me up!

I'm about as popular here as a militant lesbian feminist at a prayer breakfast.

[texanwitch]

343. Welcome meegbear.

:hi:

Welcome to the LL

[Kajsa]

349. ROFL! Welcome meegbear!

You'll fit right in, here.

:hi: :7

[Danger Mouse]

361. Indeed, fuck Dan Savage.

When I read that article of his that you link to, I was in utter disbelief. Previously, I had RESPECT for the guy...found his hounding of Santorum to be pretty funny.
But the way he was chugging the republican kool-aid...ugh.
Anyway, welcome! Glad to have you! :hi:

[AwakeAtLast]

345. Wow! What a group!

Got room for one more? :hi:

[Kajsa]

351. You bet, WakeMeUp!

Welcome to our humble group!
You're one of us, now.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

362. Room for everyone...except for you!

Just kidding.
Of course there's room for you.
:hi:

[texanwitch]

363. Where is everybody.

:shrug:

[Danger Mouse]

365. Being losers =P

I'm thinking about what to do next...but too tired/stressed to do much planning right now...

[texanwitch]

367. Well, get some sleep.

I will be up for awhile yet.

[Wapsie B]

366. Right here Miss texanwitch

:)

[texanwitch]

368. The Lounge is dead tonight.

Did you have trouble with the internet this morning, now I know why.

I thought my computer was down.

[Wapsie B]

369. Yeah I had just a little trouble getting on here.

But that's been happening here lately with the software upgrades. Maybe your internet provider was down for awhile.

[texanwitch]

370. I was not happy this morning.

I need my DU fix.

[Wapsie B]

371. Yes I do too.

It's a good addiction to have.

[Kajsa]

372. Hi Gang!

Checking in very late tonight.

I've been dealing with a toothache
and a headache, tonight.
Tylenol does NOTHING- Argh!

I'll be OK- Good to see you, Texanwitch
and Elrond here, tonight.

I'll check back tomorrow.

Take care, dear friends!

:hi:

[SPKrazy]

373. Hi Kajsa!

I'm here too!

hope you feel better

I am starting to get sleepy and will soon leave.

:hug:

:hi:

:loveya:


:thumbsup:

:yourock:

:shrug:

[Kajsa]

376. Thanks, Southpaw!

I'm feeling better today.;-)
A good nights sleep does wonders.

It's great to see you here.
We'll need to get a new thread started
soon, as this one is getting very long!

We must confer with Elrond.}(

I'll be checking back,:7

:hug: :hi:

:loveya:

[SPKrazy]

383. No Kidding

it takes 10 seconds for the thread to open!

I'd hate to think about it with dial up.

:rofl:


:hi:


;)

:hug:

[sarge43]

374. Kajsa --

get thee to a dentist. An potential abscess tooth is nothing to ignore. If left to itself, you're looking at root canal or a pull.

:hug:

[Kajsa]

377. Hi Sarge!

I did go to the dentist on Monday.

The tooth he worked on was
very sensitive. I hope there's no
larger cavity or problem looming
behind the one he filled :scared:
It feels better, today.

Thanks for the good advice,Sarge.
Abscess teeth are very painful and
do require root canals or extractions!

:hi: :hug:

[sarge43]

378. Oh good.

I know of what you speak. Another mark of the loser - crappy teeth.

[Seabiscuit]

379. I've had a big sign that says "Lounge Loser" pasted on my forehead for 3 years.

[Kajsa]

384. Welcome, Seabiscuit!

You've earned a coveted spot in our humble group
for three years, now.

You're among like minded outcasts, here.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

414. now you've made it official

congratulations, my friend, well done ;)

[TheMightyFavog]

380. I guess I should join, then.

Where's the coffee?

[texanwitch]

381. Welcome JonathanChance

Welcome to the LLC.

:hi:

[deepthought42]

382. Welcome! Coffee's at the bar, if you'd like an espresso drink...

just let me know what you'd like. Syrups are listed above. Enjoy! :toast:

[Kajsa]

385. Hey, Jonathan!

Welcome,

Deepthought is our barista, and a great one at that.
He'll be happy to help you!

:hi:

[deepthought42]

404. Who's he? Why doesn't everyone keep calling me 'he'???

Last time I checked i'm a girl....and yes, a damn good barista! :hangover:

I know I'm a loser, but JEEZ! No wonder I can't get a date.... :rofl:

[Danger Mouse]

415. Welcome!

:hi:

[Redneck Socialist]

386. I'm not sure I'd want to be part of a club that would accept me

:shrug:

[texanwitch]

387. Welcome anyway.

Where have I heard that before.

:hi:

[Redneck Socialist]

388. Well, us losers aren't too original. n/t

[Kajsa]

390. Welcome Redneck Socialist.

I remember it, also.

Was it from Mark Twain- or Will Rogers, or--?

See, being a Loser means you can ask the tough
questions!

:7

[SPKrazy]

391. Welcome Kajsa

it's good to see you

Lost is on

hard to post and watch Lost

:rofl:

[Kajsa]

392. Sorry!

I'm three hours behind you
So that's where all the ET Zoners are-Duh!

Have fun watching 'Lost'.

I'll catch up with ya after the show.

:7 :hi:

[sarge43]

393. Groucho Marx

And being a Loser means you can annoy everyone with trivia answers. :eyes:

[Kajsa]

395. That's right!

:7

[Danger Mouse]

416. Join us. Become one with us. Joooooiiiin ussss.

:)

[Justpat]

419. That is very funny.

:hi:

[deepthought42]

394. Can I just say how much I love my fellow losers?

:hug: :hug: :hug:

Rested assured, when/if I go on my first date, you people will be among the first I announce it to!


Did I mention I'm a 24 1/2 and a loser? Just making sure.

[Kajsa]

396. Aw, deepthought, that's so sweet!

We love you, too!

:hug:

We'd be honored to be among the first
to hear of your date.

Rest assured, we'll be here.
Even though we may have periods of inactivity,
we'll always check back to the most recent LLC thread.

Right now, this is it!

:hi:

[deepthought42]

397. Yea, somebody cares!

:hug:

Don't go holding your breath...I'm going for a 25-year streak of inactivity...ha ha... :banghead:

Yes, we need our own group...cuz we're that special :silly:

[Kajsa]

398. Yes we are!

When Elrond comes back, we'll hopefully get another
thread going.

Don't worry about the inactivity- it'll happen in due time.

:pals:

[deepthought42]

399. Oh I know. This isn't my first message board...

*sigh* Where did Elrond go? :shrug:

I'm such a loser when it comes to keeping up with events/people...lol

[Kajsa]

400. He was getting over the flu

the last time I checked.

Hopefully, he's better and will come back to
"The Mothership".- Ha!

Losers are allowed to crack themselves up.

:rofl:

[deepthought42]

402. Poor thing...hope he's feeling better soon

I crack myself up all the time. Might as well make somebody laugh! :dunce:

[Danger Mouse]

417. Thank you very much :)

:hug: we're glad to have you among us.
I'm a 25 and a loser, too.
I've had plenty of girlfriends, but none of those relationships ended well, so I'm still a loser! Yay me!

[Kajsa]

401. OMG! We just hit 400 posts!

Elrond!

We need a new thread, Chief!

:hi:

[deepthought42]

403. When we lose, we lose big time!

Ooo, just a few more posts, and I'll make it to 500!

[Kajsa]

405. Can you believe this?

And it all started out as small, alternative thread.

:wow:

[deepthought42]

406. Losers unite! We're going to take over the world!

Errrr....or not.

Still.... :woohoo:

[sarge43]

411. Or, as we usually do, just mill around in large aimless herd like group.

:shrug:

[deepthought42]

428. eh, you never know....

As long as we remain the losers we are. :silly:

[deepthought42]

429. Ooo, 500 posts! Go me!

I slowly going nowhere. Woot. :woohoo:

[Danger Mouse]

412. It is now taking some time to load, is it not?

I need to reply to some of the people who posted for the first time since the other night. LEt me take care of that.

[Kajsa]

418. Okie-Dokie.

First things first.

We care about our Losers, yes we do!

:hi:

[Madspirit]

407. Happy to Be Here

I am happy that I was allowed to join the Loser's Lounge because I am fairly sure I am invisible elsewhere on DU. I have my own Yahoo Groups where I am not invisible but here...ghostlike, I think.
Lee

[texanwitch]

408. Welcome to the LLC.

You won't be invisible here.

[Madspirit]

409. Hey Houston!

Austin here!
Lee

[texanwitch]

410. Hey Austin.

:hi:

[Danger Mouse]

413. And we're glad to have you

:hi:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

420. That fits my description.

I have to kick my own threads to keep them afloat.

I'll bet if I took a DU vacation for a month, nobody would even notice.

I'm a loser, baby; but I've got the goddam beer! :toast:

[Kajsa]

422. Welcome, GoddessOfGuiness!

You are one of the nicest ladies I know.

We are a humble but growing group of people
who find camaraderie amongst others who
know firsthand what rejection feels like.

You are an official member of the Lounge Losers Club!

And you are in charge of the beer.


:toast:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

424. All right! Beer for everybody who wants it!

[Kajsa]

426. Yea! We've got beer- the great stuff, too!

:9

We're shaping up to be a great group!

:hi:

[Seabiscuit]

421. FINALLY an anti-clique clique. Aren't you all sick to death of the

in-crowd's "**** Appreciation Thread"s, the "Time for More Clique Member Pictures" threads, and the "I've Got A Crush On ****" threads?

Time for us proud-to-be-unpopular outsiders to stake out our own turf around here.

Dayam right!

The next time one of my threads sinks to oblivian in 10 minutes I'll watch it go down with pride, knowing I'm in good company, and in the majority for a change!

[Kajsa]

423. That's right, Seabiscuit.

Welcome, again!

The Lounge Losers are unique.

We can laugh at our own jokes, forget things
without major embarrassment, and experience
freedoms that would be unheard of elsewhere.

It's a new form of cool!

:thumbsup:

[SPKrazy]

425. Welcome To The Loser Section Of The Lounge!

Seabiscuit!

The loser section has become more popular than the popular threads

:hi:

:thumbsup:

You are a loser like me!


:pals:

[Kajsa]

427. UPDATE AND SIGN-INS ON OUR NEW THREAD
