But someone may be typing as I edit. Who knows? :shrug:

10. Precisely my point! "What f&%king Rhule book?"

You are very astute! ;)

11. i guess this rulebook.....

"Posts that are unrelated to politics or public policy (such as pop culture, entertainment, sports, or celebrity news) belong in the DU Lounge, in the relevant Topic Forums, or in the appropriate DU Groups.

and of course

"You are permitted to discuss political or social issues relating to human sexuality, provided that you exercise the appropriate level of maturity, sensitivity, and discretion. Topics about sex are not permitted in the DU Lounge, although we may occasionally make an exception for articles posted from mainstream news sources.

12. Wow!... You actually went "Rhulz" on me...

I was more in the line of thinking and I admit didn't express clearly what I meant at the beginning.
My fault, I believe my original post was sort of snarky but I posted about a family problem/illness
and seemed to be taken to task right away and ridiculed by uppity DU loungers. That's where the intimidation
comes in and that is what I'm questioning. Why do some here in the lounge think their shit doesn't stink?

15. oh. i guess i missed the post on the family problem/illiness

i got to the dance late i suppose

(actually, i posted from the rulebook with a smile--just trying to be a bit stupid about answering your question)

as far as shit not stinking? i have no idea.
