DU lounge confessional booth

[lightningandsnow]

OK, I'll start.

I haven't eaten red meat in 4 years, and I stopped eating poultry about 2 years ago. I don't miss it, really - except for sausages.

I get massive sausage cravings sometimes, especially when I see someone else eating them.

[raccoon]

1. I've really cut back on beef, because I'm scared of mad cow disease. nt

[crim son]

2. I'm a ground beef addict and will probably die of mad cow disease.

It'll be worth it.

[DarkTirade]

3. I poked a badger with a spoon.

[fizzgig]

15. that is an original sin

:D

:thumbsup:

[quip]

16. .

You shouldn't mess with badgers

[XemaSab]

35. I put a badger in my trunk!

:o

[cabraverde]

76. wow.....I have heard of people putting hampsters

in their trunk...but a badger! thats some serious "junk in da trunk"

[Lethe]

45. dude thats not cool!

unless he was trying to take your food away, i can understand that.



At this point, i want to post the obligatory....british badgers suck american badgers kick ass!

[MissMillie]

4. I haven't

had sex in over 7 years



wow... I can't believe I'm posting this....

[BlueIris]

6. I got that beat.

By a lot.

[Iggo]

25. I'm a "sober virgin."

Never got any before I started doing dope. Haven't gotten any since I quit....eleven years ago!!!

[Deep13]

5. I eat veal because baby cows killed my Dad. nt

[BlueIris]

7. I'm not gay.

I'm not even bi.

Sorry to disappoint.

[ThomCat]

39. I thought you were pretty clear about that.

:shrug:

[BlueIris]

42. I just...feel like I've allowed some people to believe I'm a GLBT poster

and I kinda feel like I lied. I don't like pointing out that I'm just a boring straight chick (it sounds defensive and homophobic to me in a way) but the other day I wondered if I should make some kind of declaration in the name of honesty or something.

[ThomCat]

43. Cool Straight People are always welcome.

:hug:

You're one of us.

[lightningandsnow]

78. Agreed!

*Hugs*

[DarkTirade]

60. No need to always point out what you are unless it's relevant to the conversation

or if someone asks. Besides, you're cool enough to hang out in GLBT even if you're not GLB or T. :)

[cabraverde]

77. ok, but are you hot?

[BlueIris]

8. I once thought about slapping someone. In the face.

I didn't do it, but I thought about it.

[Rambis]

9. I dislike people who disagree with me

politically or for any reason really:) Think like I do so as not to piss me off:freak:

[Drum]

18. Love the tartan avatar, Rambis.

Clan Lamont, by any chance?

:hi:

[Rambis]

22. Ancient Watson

We have Watson, McIntosh,Sands,McGillionay,Johnstone,Dinwiddie,Olgilvie and Leslie's
The Watsons were Fifers (Kilrenny) the rest were cultchies (hillbillies) from villages south of Glasgow-
Cheers!

[Drum]

24. Wow...good on ya for knowing!

My fam's records are non-existant, and so is our heritage. Only have an inkling of my background from surname-searches, no other real clues. Sorry to go off-topic, but thanks for the reply!

[Rambis]

26. Funny

my mother swore for years were were Irish (there are some Doherty's but a few) My one aunt always said we were scotts because she actually met "the crazy scottsman" when she was young. My cousin did all the work. My dad's family are all English farmers from Derby. They have rented the same land for 600 years until they came to the states.
I like these tangents no worries!

[supernova]

10. I am deeply afraid of failure

of any kind. Perfectionistic.

I try to overcome it but it's hard. I get very anxious.

[DS1]

11. I'd buy a fully loaded 8-core powermac and 3 30" displays

if I had a spare 25,000 dollars.

[Kutjara]

48. I'm with you on this one.

When I saw the new Mac Pro on the Apple website, I used the online configuration tool to load it up to the max, and then just stared at the resulting spec sheet with an almost sexual longing. I stopped when I caught myself seriously thinking about how much money I could get by selling my mother to white slavers.

[BarenakedLady]

12. I'm a lousy housekeeper.

I should be spending this alone time cleaning this pig sty. I don't feel like it.

Oh yeah, I'm also lazy. :)

[Connonym]

58. you say this as if it's a bad thing

seems perfectly normal to me

[BarenakedLady]

62. ....

:thumbsup:

[IzaSparrow]

13. I've been vegetarian for 3ish years...

and i can't go near chicken wing places. I'd definately fall off the wagon and end up with some pretty interesting intestinal issues.

I miss BW3's spicy garlic sauce:cry:

[LanternWaste]

14. I enjoyed the television show...

I really enjoyed the television show 'thirtysomething' and will buy it on DVD as soon as it's released and regardless of how much it costs.

Man, I though confession was supposed to make me feel better... :(

[DarkTirade]

17. Most guys want someone to love and/or sex up...

but I just want someone who will make me feel PRETTY.

And someone who will scratch my back now and then. :)

*edit* Oh, and cuddles. Damn it, I'm tired of being manly. Yes, I'm a guy. But I want cuddles.

[Rhythm]

29. Totally off-topic, but... I saw someone the other day who looked a lot like you.

I was headed into the grocery store, and a guy coming out was a dead ringer for all the pictures i've seen you post.

I had to come back here and check what area you live in, just to make sure i hadn't almost run into you. *L*

[DarkTirade]

30. ... but he wasn't as pretty, right? :P

[Rhythm]

31. Nowhere near...

That's how i knew it wasn't YOU, silly... *L*

[DarkTirade]

33. :)

:hug:

[ThomCat]

40. Pretty? Man, you're beautiful!

:hug:

[DarkTirade]

49. :)

:hug:

[DarkTirade]

67. Wait... are you just saying that to try and get into my pants?

'cause that line would totally work. :P

[ThomCat]

71. It would?

Then, yes, that's exactly why I'm saying it. :9

[meegbear]

19. When I think about you ...

I touch myself.

[AllegroRondo]

20. I have a huge crush on....

Erin, the pink haired girl from the Esurance commercials.

[mzteris]

21. I haven't been here much

lately because I've been pretty preoccupied for the last few weeks. . .

I'm sinfully, deliriously happy for now. . . I feel like a teenager or something.

(Those who've followed my saga know exactly what I'm talking about. :blush: )

It's been wonderful and shocking and so very very very nice.

I :loveya: everybody.

[ThomCat]

41. Yay! That's a wonderful reason to be away.

:woohoo:

I hope the joy and excitement lasts a long, long time. And I hope a wonderful, stable relationship comes out of it. :)

[lost-in-nj]

23. I am loving

Graywarriors thread...
I post in it......

Also no sex for over a year here
so the thread is ....

well never mind


:silly: :silly:

lost


I think I have a crush on someone from DU also.....
:evilgrin:

[MorningGlow]

27. I have a magazine column due in two days

And yet I'm here, cruising the Lounge--who gives a shit about deadlines. Not much of a confession--I'm sure it happens every day--but it's all I've got right now. Aside from the fact that I ate one of MG Jr.'s chocolate "crayons" he got for Christmas.
:shrug:

I lead a sheltered life...

[LSK]

28. I am listening to Howard Stern

Is that bad?

[Bucky]

32. At least three former students of mine have very incriminating videos of me

If ever became famous, I'm sure I'd flame out quickly in the resulting scandal.

[RainDog]

34. I failed...

in raising my son.

I raised him to be rock and roll, but he and all his friends are now listening to cheeeeezy 70s and 80s music and watching lame videos on YouTube. :cry:

I asked him "oh no! where did I go wrong" today and he just laughed... :cry: :cry: :cry:

[DarkTirade]

36. I am totally picturing you holding a guitar and saying, "Join me on the Rock side, my son!"

and he's holding up a crappy synthesizer, saying "I'll never join you!"

[RainDog]

38. LOL

I think I should send him to Rock School

"does everyone remember the Foghat rule? your fourth album should be double LIIIIVE."

[gmoney]

37. I'll confess that I'm convinced...

...I better not confess anything.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

44. I have sexual dreams about my boss.

I also have sex dreams about another guy in my office.
What is wrong with me? I do not think of my boss or the dude in my office this way. But when i dream we are doing really normal husband/wife things. It's really strange.
Actually, HELP!
Duckie

[LeftyMom]

46. I broke flvegan's computer. nt

[DarkTirade]

54. Well that's because the computer desk isn't the best surface for you two to... err...

yeah, I'll stop talking now. :P

[LeftyMom]

55. I wish I'd broke it that way.

Last night I called him right after he shut his computer off to tell him I'd emailed him. Without going into details, it was an email worth looking at right away. So he turned the computer back on and it started smoking, and he knocked it over and cracked the case trying to get it out from under his desk.

So it's really all my fault. Or part of me's fault, anyhow.

[DarkTirade]

59. Ah, so you were an indirect cause.

Well next time break it the other way. It's much more fun, and he won't blame you. :)

[stuntcat]

47. every Friday I watch Washington Week,

.. and sometimes I don't even understand it :blush:

Also I like that Tone-Loc song, Funky Cold Medina.

(there's a LOT worse stuff I can't tell :))

[Dr. Strange]

50. CreekDog stole all of my Rush albums.

x(

Oh wait, are we allowed to confess what other DUers have done?

[Daddy_is_a_Dem]

51. I voted for Bush in 1992

I was in the military....Sorry!!

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

53. haha.

I have friends in the military, they didn't vote for Bush Jr.

Any other reason you voted for him back then?? What changed?

[bicentennial_baby]

52. I confess that I have the hottest pic of

Dita Von Teese as my wallpaper right now :D

[bridgit]

56. Forgive me Father Psycho Punk Ass Creep, for surely I have sinned...

I bought http://www.bluemoonbrewingcompany.com">Blue Moon at Streets of London, and while they gave me orange slices ah-plenty, it was some 12 bucks a pitcher, and I bought two SAVE ME!! O8)

[Oeditpus Rex]

57. I'm not always as I may seem

Some Loungies may know me as That Monty Python Dude, always with the sales campaigns jokes, or the Grammar Überhauptsturmbannführer, because those are the aspects I choose to put forward. Few people ever see me angry, because I learned long ago that Anger Is Bad. And, when I'm depressed — which is often this time of year, and it can be quite deep — I may not let even my closest friends know it.

[Lyric]

64. ...

:hug: :loveya:

[Cannikin]

61. I've only posted in the lounge for at least a year. I have no idea whats happening in GD

[ThomCat]

65. That's not necessarily a bad thing.

:)

[DarkTirade]

68. Yeah, it's kind of ironic. I came here to keep up with progressive news that

I wouldn't be able to find elsewhere. Then the primaries started getting close and GD just started getting ridiculously nasty, and I ended up retreating to the lounge. :P

[BlueIris]

63. I...just...can't...

see myself voting for Hillary Clinton in the general election. Even if she is the Dem nominee and the other option is McCain/Giuliani/Bloomberg. DON'T FLAME ME. I don't claim to be proud of this.

[lightningandsnow]

66. I actually see where you're coming from.

[HughBeaumont]

70. No flames here.

I won't either.

[Guava Jelly]

69. This is the 3rd time that I attempted to confess something here

Each time I deleted my post..

[ThomCat]

74. That okay, GoPsUx.

Sometimes you need to keep some things to yourself.

We love you anyway. :loveya:

[cabraverde]

72. I hurt someone's feelings once

[ThomCat]

73. Only once?

:shrug:

Haven't you already posted several comments that got some strong reactions?

[cabraverde]

75. I think you have me confused with

a spanish goat of a different color.


Besides there is a difference between "hurt feelings" and "filled with blind rage"

[lightningandsnow]

79. I like volunteer work too much for my own good.

I should actually get a job sometime. It's just that all the non-paying jobs I've had have been more fun and rewarding than any paying job you can get at the age of 16.

[lildreamer316]

80. I've never been to Starbucks.

Ever.

[lightningandsnow]

81. You're not missing much.

Really.

[pink-o]

86. Oh, mine is far worse! I went to Starbucks in Paris, France!!!

..Because that's where I could find the biggest cafe latte in the city. Parisian cafes only give you the eight-ounce cup. I need at least 2 sixteen ounce lattes to even start my jour!!!

Yeah, I felt like an ugly American corporatist. But Mamma needs her meds, okaaaay???

[Seabiscuit]

82. I fantasize about shooting out the tires of dangerous drivers.

Even though I've never owned a gun.

I also wish I could make the cell phones used by people while driving smell like a skunk every time they try to use one while behind the wheel.

[DarkTirade]

83. I'm sure we've all had that first thought...

and I've never even touched a loaded gun before, let alone owned one. :)

I like your skunk idea too. Gotta remember that one.

[Rosemary2205]

84. You and me both.

I've more than once fanasized about being a double secret cop with one of those high tech transformer cars that instantly turns into a cop car and I can pull over the ahole driver and slap them around a little.

I also have had the one about shooting out tires to slow their aggressive butts down. (That'll teach um)

In reality I'm a little teeny graying woman confined to a wheelchair -- but in my heart of hearts I'm a big bad "Hell's Angel" that only pushes the "bad" people around. :)

[LuckyLib]

85. I blame every aspect of my personal craziness on a childhood in the Catholic Church.

'Nuff said.

[pink-o]

87. I find I can't really hate Laura Bush. I actually feel sorry for her!

Believe me, I've tried. She killed a dude, never even went to court or served one minute in jail, whereas you know someone poorer or minority-er would still be behind bars! But I think on some level she's punishing herself with that marriage and those in-laws. She's on every anti-depressant under the sun just to get thru the day.

Okay, there are better people who deserve my sympathy, like the families of soldiers killed and maimed in the heinous conflict her bastard husband brought down on all of us. But even though Bush and Cheney have my full-on wrath and loathing, I can't seem to transfer it to Laura, no matter how complicit she might be!

[carly denise pt deux]

88. I watch 80's music videos while eating Cherry Garcia ice cream

forgive me lounge, for I have sinned
