1/17/12 Lounge: Do the new guests know about the naked requirement for lounging?

That is how fucking cold it is.

Or court, or pitch, or whatever it’s called.

Also, there are two people in Hollywood I want to punch in the face: George Clooney, and Julia Roberts.

and changed my email name so that everytime I emailed Blez, he thought I was Rev and wouldn’t reinstatement.

I did not sleep well last night.

AN exists only as the Lounge for me.

That guy needs a tan.

I like sour cream & onion.

Finally!

but tonight, I’m actually glad to see Turtle Man.

I have now realized that my anti-turtle man Adblock filters were on my OTHER computer.

Can’t posting a TM picture be grounds for at least a strike or two??? Haha.

I am happy

thanks for helping to try to liven this place up. We’ll see who will streak next….

it’s the lounge. everyone goes naked in the lounge.

Thanks for all the work you put into your Diaries.

Feel free to stop into the lounge and say hi sometime.

I want you to know, I really appreciate the comments you’ve made during the course of the current… situation.

It’s been fun, Paul. All the best.

A (hopefully temporary) goodbye to you, PT. I do hope to see you around other places, at least.

Guessing you’ll be on the other side too?

Seriously, I loved the work you put into your stuff.

Having lurked and read your comments for years: you have really educated me with your insights and comments. You are a huge loss to AN.

Hopefully you find another place for your valuable A’s analysis and hopefully we still all get a chance to read it.

Sleep well. Hope everything checks out just fine.

And have some real food in the morning…

Weirdo.

but how was the gym?

Haters gonna hate.

I know just how you feel, giggs. I really do like all the people on AN. Even the ones who hammer me. I never minded the arguing. I don’t mind feeling like a little kid, due to my lack of knowledge. Just the disrespect.

You’re one of my favorite people I’ve met through this site, but yeah… this whole situation is just… ugh.

I can all but guarantee you that no one on the other side is real happy, either.

Point of contention. The other site is not only bashing the ones remaining here. The other site has been around for about three years now. While there is a lot of complaining about AN going on there now, that is to be expected. People are very upset and cannot express themselves here at all. Eventually, that will die down.

I have, for example, done about three years worth of Breaking Bad analysis there. They discuss politics, both local and national (I don’t really participate, but hey). There’s always a lot of in-depth A’s discussion. The core group of people over there are incredibly bright.

It’s the only place for dissension right now. But that goes away. And no one is saying anyone has to choose. You can do both. I’m a founding member of that website.

( this is where it was supposed to go):)

That means a lot to me.

Of all the crap that I took in that thread, from both sides, yours was the only one that hurt. I’m glad to know I haven’t lost you.

P.S. I recently read that enormous 1,000-page bio of your hero Harry Truman. Great stuff, I learned a lot.

I don’t know that this is a good thing or not….

let me just say I do truly wish you the best with your little one. at the end of the day, your family should be more important than any baseball team, so I half expected you to disappear when she arrived, but it’s been great fun watching your sleepless nights unfold on AN.

Or at least I’m not going anywhere else.

But I’m hardly a regular, so I can’t imagine anyone gives s**t.
