The Guide to Making an Intresting Lounge Thread

Originally Posted by Pink paint
Does your life lack point? Do you need to be e-cool to live? Does your heart swell up with joy everytime someone responds to your lounge thread? Then to help you on your way is 11 easy steps to safe posting

1. We dont care about your problems, dont post them, Some problems are funny. Which problems you ask (STDs, detached nipples, or getting anally raped by a gang of pokemon nerds)

2. Self Pain IS entertaining

3. Pictures can make your boring day actually seem intresting to everyone else. Remember, the only time we want to scroll to see the whole picture is when the person isnt wearing any clothes(prefferably female)

4. Games and movies on the internet are like milk in the back of your fridge. If its new its still good and you can enjoy its delicious taste. If its old you get a nasty response. Also things that are so old that you had to dig to the very very back of your hardrive and fight off that creepy spider can be cool!

5. Most succesfull threads have a point or meaning, threads that have a main subject such as "i just found 3 dollars" or "Im really bored" arent very sucessfull unless you have pictures (refer to rule 3).

6. Girl threads (WITHOUT PICS!) never turn out well, here on the interweb we dont use such common courtesies such as sympathy and caring.

7. We know you didnt pay attention in grammar class, remember those dots that the teacher was always talking about while you were looking at a paintball magazine under your desk. Those are called periods and here on the interweb we love them.

8. Another thing we love on the interweb is paragraphs. These things seperate groups of four sentences. This makes groups of sentences look pretty and encourage the reader to keep on going.

9. Dont add Tl: Dr's if you add them(the way they're sopposed to be added), they will have no reason to read the actual thing. If you dont include it they will end up reading it because if their here in the first place, they have nothing better to do. Also Tl;DRs that have nothing to do with the topic can give Rolfcopters in some rare cases. If a Rolfcopter lasts more then 4 hours see a doctor and really its not that funny.

10. We all know spelling is tough and after a few beers you probably dont care at all, but when you're making a thread remember, if you spell correctly people will think you passed the 8th grade (even though we should know better). Every word doesnt need to be spelled correctly, i'd say 15 out of 20 would make you sound 8th grade worthy.

10 1/2. Drunk threads are funny, get hammered and call Dave cocknose

11. Use contractions correctly.

Follow these steps and you can be on your way to being a succesfull lounge poster and remember untill nextime

Happy Posting


Thanks to all that contributed

I think that when you enter the lounge, its like the whole left side of your brain stops functioning completely.

true

3. Pictures can make your boring day actually seem intresting to everyone else

Good pictures, not blurry ones, and ones that aren't incredibly large unless they're nudes

4. Games and movies on the internet are like milk in the back of your fridge. If its new its still good and you can enjoy its delicious taste. If its old you get a nasty response.

Not completely true, forgotten classics can be brought back that members that were there for it

5. Most succesfull threads have a point or meaning, threads that have a main subject such as "i just found 3 dollars" or "Im really bored" arent very sucessfull unless you have pictures (refer to rule 3).

3 words... Cake and tits. That thread had no meaning, but it was the best.

6. Girl threads (WITHOUT PICS!) never turn out well, here on the interweb we dont use such common courtesies such as sympathy and caring.

7. We know you didnt pay attention in grammar class, remember those dots that the teacher was always talking about while you were looking at a paintball magazine under your desk. Those are called periods and here on the interweb we love them.

I can't agree enough. Proper grammar, spelling, and capitalization are very important.

8. Another thing we love on the interweb is paragraphs. These things seperate groups of four sentences. This makes groups of sentences look pretty and encourage the reader to keep on going.

9. Dont add Tl: Dr's if you add them they will have no reason to read the
actual thing. If you dont include it they will end up reading it because if their here in the first place, they have nothing better to do.

WRONG!!! Add Tl;DRs that have nothing to do with the topic aka "time ninjas gave me syphilis"

10. We all know spelling is tough and after a few beers you probably dont care at all, but when you're making a thread remember, if you spell correctly people will think you passed the 8th grade (even though we should know better)

10 1/2. Drunk threads are funny, get hammered and call Dave cocknose

Back in the day there were alot of pointless threads that turned out great, and were some of the best threads.
