HELP SAVE THE LOUNGE from yvr girl's radical resolution!

[4_Legs_Good]

As some of you may know, yvr girl has undertaken the crazy notion that she should, as part of some kinda tribal ritual called a "New Year's Resolution" cease and desist all flirtatious posts here in the Lounge.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=2776049&mesg_id=2776049&page=

Now I ask you, my fellow DUers, what would the Lounge be like without yvr girls flirtations?

And, my friends, if this is not frightening enough, just think about what it could mean for the rest of the Lounge. Others may decide to cease similar posts, and drive the Lounge, ultimately, to be as boring and dry as the Free Republic.

Yes, if YOU do not sign this petition, we may well see the end of the DU Lounge as we know it. So I beg you, PLEASE, sign your username below and convince yvr girl to recind her non-flirtation resolution, or at least delay it until 2016 at which time she may consider it again.

Urge her, instead, to take up eating more Mexican or Indian food. Or even to get more sleep or something ANYTHING!!!

Don't let this injustice happen. Please sign this petition!!!

Do it NOW! (or else :nuke: :nuke: :nuke:)

She hasn't flirted with me (but who has) but it does bring even more life to The Lounge.

[4_Legs_Good]

16. Exactly!

That's exactly the point. I don't think she's flirted with me either, but maintaining a certain flirtation level in the Lounge (any lounge I might add) is necessary to keep it functioning.

Thanks for the signature!

6. Doesn't matter one way or the other.

Nobody flirts with us short, old guys anyway. ;-)

[CanuckAmok]

7. Oh, please....

yvr girl's threat to discontinue flirting should be taken as seriously as an elephant's threat to discontinue spraying water on himself, California Quails' threats to cease bobbing around going "peep peep peep" with those funny things on their heads, or Gallagher's threats to update his act.

We're talking about altering the fundamental facts of nature.


Move along, people...nothing to see here!

[Stop_the_War]

8. LMAO!

[AlCzervik]

9. Excellent!

[yvr girl]

10. You seriously underestimate my will

Unless enough people sign this petition, I will not flirt in the lounge again. Ever.

Does 100 signatures seem fair?

[CanuckAmok]

12. Like your resolution to get to your parents' for dinner?

You know what your problem is? You're WEAK! You're a slave to your own impulses!

Which makes me very, very happy.

[yvr girl]

13. I had to get ready

Besides, my father might not survive the shock of me being on time. I'm late. He makes a snide remark. It's our thing.

I'm leaving now.

[arcane1]

11. arcane1

wtf kind of resolution is that?????

[4_Legs_Good]

14. It's an utterly crazy resolution

It doesn't make any sense and just hurts us as a community. That's why we need

100 distinct signatures on this thread.

Keep 'em coming!

17. Furiously signs petition

She must continue to flirt, with me.

[Cyndee_Lou_Who]

18. I will be the first woman to support this worthy cause...

more Mexican AND Indian food are in order. In addition, I have always admired her work.

On an unrelated note, 4LG, your signature pic sparked an interesting conversation between my 14 year-old son and I. I was recalling with him the "Good Old Days" when we had a surplus of like $230 BILLION. 'Member?.... <sigh> <sniff>

[4_Legs_Good]

22. Cheers!! I was begining to wonder of the females were JEALOUS of yvr girl

's status as flirt extrordinaire! Or felt threatened by it! Thanks for joining in! :)

Ah yes! The days of surplus. Those were nice, weren't they? Tell your 11 year old to start saving his pennies (and $100 bills) to pay some of the interest on the nutty debt!

Good news is George Jr. plans to cut his own self-created defecit in half in 5 years! Than's George! Create a HUGE problem then resolve to solve half of it (and none of the fallout - the resulting DEBT, which will be to the tune of $3T or thereabouts) by the time you've left + 1 year.

What a guy!

I so feel sorry for our kids!

david

[Cyndee_Lou_Who]

24. JEALOUS?? No, not me. Some are... but not me.

[4_Legs_Good]

29. Not you, of course!

which you showed by signing the petition!

Thanks!!!

26. Relax. I's ILLEGAL to make New Year's Resolutions in MARCH.

...and yvr girl KNOWS this, I'm willing to bet.

She's calling our BLUFF.

She KNOWS the Lounge would SUFFER in her FLIRTATIOUS ABSENCE.

We are safe.

yvr girl WILL flirt again. SOON. TRUST me on this.

:toast:

[4_Legs_Good]

27. I'm not sure yvr girl observes international law. Are you willing to take

that chance?

Hey why not it could start to be contagious and others may start similiar things or demanding them from the moderators. One of the reasons I enjoy coming here and hanging out is because its not uptight adn its fun. You can be silly and you can talk about something besides politics.

[4_Legs_Good]

61. Fantastic reasons to sign. Thank you so much!!!

Thanks again!

david

[CaliforniaPeggy]

[flvegan]

50. Have we given up????

[4_Legs_Good]

52. No no, not yet

I say we keep it going at least through the weekend. Maybe the weekend crowd, and people, while they're slobbering drunk, will finish the last 60 or so signatures!

/crosses fingers

david

[flvegan]

53. Then I'll keep kicking this high priority initiative.

[4_Legs_Good]

56. I try to kick it several times a day when key demographics are likely to

to be watching.

Anyway, thanks for joining the effort! Now that it's a "hot topic" we might advance a little more quickly.

david

[yvr girl]

54. If it does pass, I host a big flirt-a-thon
