DU GD has sunk to a new low in my book
Edited on Thu Oct-11-07 01:56 AM by 48percenter
This DU is not the DU I joined in early 2002. Very sad.

The only reason I still hang around here is because of the photography group.

I can think of better ways to spend my time, perhaps a long vacation from this place is in order.

8. There's quite a few of us who can't seem to resist getting kicked in the teeth over in GD
I hate it, but I can't stop going there.

9. if it helps, I think a lot of us feel the same way
every now and then, I forget that posters who stay in GD seem to lack the humor gene, or even the ability to not be a jackass. I mean, I know I'm a jackass sometimes, but at least I am friendly about it and aware of it. Does that count for anything?

:)

10. I honestly think that board
is infested with trolls. Seriously. I cannot believe the things that people said in my thread about genocide. One would almost think right wingers have registered here and drop bombs on threads to annoy us.

Who woulda thunk it?? :silly:

11. Gee, ya think?
I spend most of my DU time in GD, and I'll tell you IT'S A FACT.
And they're just not getting rid of them the way they used to.

As you said above, this isn't the DU I joined anymore.

15. My hide thread and ignore feature are red hot
I hate to do it, bit it us better than dealing with toxic, hateful individuals on a daily basis.

21. Remanants of former glory are still very much here.
This is one of the most userfriendly website/message boards. Enough forums to attract anyone. There are times when the Lounge is just down right knee-slapping funny. Still, there is an air about the place...mostly, I guess from the oldsters singning the blues.
