5. Pretty soon, the "fun will be over" in GD, too.
No Greatest nor Front pages for them, either!!

6. Don't recommended pages automtically go to the Greatest Page?
Maybe we should all go to GD and recommend them!

:evilgrin:

7. I dare someone to go post an original GD thread called "dupe"
The Lounge has long been incapable of Greatest/Front. We make DU look "bad" or something.

8. It happens every Columbus Day over there.
For most of us, St. Patrick's Day is "go-a-little-nuts day".
But for whatever reason, GDers have chosen Columbus Day to kick over the traces.

As soon as they get likkered up enough they'll start talking like pirates and then there'll be a food fight.
And the mods will have to come in and hose out the whole place and break out the wet vacs.

I think it's the inbreeding that brings it on.

17. Yeah, there was the 'Columbus Day Sux' faction
duking it out with the 'Native American Genocide Was Regrettable But Justified' wing.

Then the 'Columbus Wasn't The First (Nyah Nyah Nyah)' party poopers started giving wedgies to both sides.

It got pretty ugly.
They had to call in the national guard.
That became a problem because only one trainee showed up to quell the riot.
"Dude, the rest of the guys are in Baghdad fer Christ's sake. I haven't even finished basic yet. What do you want ME to do? These people look scary."

I think a lot were sent to bed without dinner.
What a mess.

26. I have referred to it as 'an agricultural excavation implement'.
Just doesn't have the same 'heft'.

12. I figured they wouldn't last too long.
I think fun is against the rules in GD, but then, that's why we have the lounge.

20. there are occasional amused chuckles in GD/P -
I think a few funny threads have survived there for a time. (I think there is sardonic commentary there occasionally.)

It's not a rowdy free-for all like it is here, though.

25. I know. They deleted them.
It started when one person suggested checking for duplicates (you know, that "Good Citizen" thing).

That was followed by several copy cat threads.

GD started looking like the lounge.
