7. honestly, i passed over this thread several times--i just didn't want to see anything graphic! n/t

8. I'd never post anything that is actually "graphic" in the Lounge

I've posted a few things in GD that weren't graphic to me either, but because I've been around DU for quite some time, I know the overall tone of the group and have posted "graphic" warnings on borderline stuff from time to time as a courtesy.

So if you see any future posts from me in the Lounge with a "GRAPHIC!" warning you can rest assured that it's half of the joke.

9. i kinda figured

after considering it *is* (after all) the lounge

& vegan

so i figured it was fairly safe. that's why i finally clicked after telling myself several times i wasn't going to look

anyway...poor watermelon!

Just saying.

12. Not as graphic, but...

just as frightening...

Innocent apples awaiting their turns in the Medieval torture device

[Wolf Frankula]

14. Carrot Juice is murder

15. those better not be Charles Bronson's melons

[Miles Archer]

17. That put me right in the mood for some classic Chuck...

...and SPEAKING of Chuck, one of my favorite Bronson films...because it is so completely unbelievable and over the top...is Death Wish III, because the main bad guy is Gavan O'Herlihy, one of the two Happy Days actors who played Richie Cunningham's brother Chuck in the first season.

16. Tell me I'm not seeing what I'm seeing

Five watermelons and four black guys?
