...I can remember a time when The Lounge™ was a respectable upscale establishment for all of several minutes...
but I haven't hit my 5-year FT anniversary yet, and only discovered the Lounge in the last year or so
wow, I'm surprised that wasn't on her list ... of course I'll probably wind up on another list for sharing that ...

if the cow walked in front of you, but you didn't see it, was it pasteurized?

How much moore of this do we have to put up with?
(Okay that was a bit of a stretch
)
Maybe we should keep this up until they start serving burgers in the Sky Clubs!

I am quite mooved by this thread.
Indeed this Lounge™ was open for all of 2 hours 14 minutes before Cholula showed up.
I haven't checked when Dovster first appeared, but any damage was already done.
On the other hand, it's possible that Canarsie was referring to one of the prior incarnations of this thread (the prior Lounge™ thread and/or the Unabashed Cholula Spam thread), and that any pretense of respectability was already lost here.
