I'm sinking to THIS: panhandling the Lounge for life-saving a GD thread!1 [View all]

Well, Lounge is part of one of my long-standing self-peeves: How come I can spend 10-45 minutes on a cogent, original thread plus editing/cutting/pasting/graphics/nice-appearance -- and it SINKS like crap, yet my wild-ass nutso threads or where I'm flamed to pieces gets LOTS of showtime?!1

Since Lounge is who mostly has to put up with my zaniness, how 'bout dropping by this WORTHY thread o'mine with Replies that will kick it into life?!1 Only if you really, rahlly MEAN it!1 (It's already onto p. 2 of GD, MINUTES after posting.)
