Generic Lurker Lounge thread - Obi2Kenobi - 12-29-2004
This is actually 2 posters arguing with each other. It takes 59 replies (each) to complete this conversation, since the 'thread' has to be maintained)
<Replies to wrong post, confusing everyone and offending the person accidentally replied to>
<Quotes someone quoting someone who posted a screenshot of someone's image. Inserts own image.>

<DeeBye complains about people saving image in the wrong format.>
Quote:But how is the government going to run this?You are a communist nazi elitist capitalist facist pig.
Quote:But how is the government going to run this?<Uses new formatting to try and find a new meaning>
Quote:But how is the government going to run this?Well, if we look at the dictionary <quotes this entire page http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=run> we can see that the word 'run' has many different meanings, and since meaning B does not make sense in this context, your argument is clearly flawed, despite other meanings making sense. <Quotes Nietzche>
I blame you personally for the downfall of the Lounge, since I was here in the Lounge Alpha testing period, and it wasn't this bad then, and you are a new poster <said to Lemming>, so you're obviously wrong. lol stfu roflmao wug :shuriken:
It has promptly manifested itself as though you are exerting yourself into being my more recent, oppugnant anathema on these convokatative fora, and thusly I shall lambast you with my incomprehensible, yet not entirely reprehensible, terminological inexactitudes. It is not my intent to discombobulate you with my sesquipadallian, neologistic sentences, yet I would assume you would cogitate into comprehension my perfectly conjecturable floccinaucinihilipilificatious ripostes.

*Lurker begins a discussion on the merits of actually calling soccer "football" because the initial premise of the thread has grown tiresome and this member wishes to divert the discussion away from the cesspit it's clearly headed for.*
The 3 Lurkers who can actually use the threaded view then begin a subthread about how it's inappropriate to hijack a thread in this manner when their discussion is rudely interrupted by members that are using the standard view and simply clicked the "Reply" button on the most recent post to continue the discussion on base 6 Roman numerals.

Claims one's self to be laughing while doing extreme feats involving rolling and falling despite the fact just a small grin has ever surfaced on said one's surface followed by one of the below options:
1) Question, remark or answer to a small and/or insignifcant(sp?) detail in New Poster's ™ post.
2) Witty or otherwise unrelated reply
3) Belated reply to above unrelated reply stating the joke is best fit for those of the age below a tiny and at times negative number of winters.

Hmmm, maybe, but somehow I think it would be best to put that one on the desert page, Group C, for when one wants more than a fortune cookie after all that filling mental food. That one seems like it would go better with a little cup of green tea. :whistling:

Adds to pointless argument about english vs. U.S. language, brings up more words.

Random post from self-proclaimed mascot.
Random facts from a minority perspective.
Reminder of poster's gender and how it is 1337 and female.
Female poster.
Female.
Remember to read this post for the information it contains, for to do otherwise would make you un1337.
Remember, minority.
Cute forum mascot.
Female.
PS: An injoke that only DSFers/RBD/AB folks would understand. Mentioned only to enhance poster's 1337ness.

Agrees with F, brings up valid point as to why all should agree with F.
Relates F to a real life experience and asks if anyone has had a similar experience.
Makes with the humor. :shuriken:

Long, confusing paragraph about subject that sounded better in my head than written down.
"Reminds me of (something halfway off topic)", extra paragraph adding to description.
On a side note: people is another word I've been typoing lately as "peopel"

Possibly starts pointless male vs. female argument.

Post of shock and amazement praising a rare sighting of an actual Lurker.
Reminds forum about own personal 1337ness.
In-joke.
