Why the hell should he be banned? Isn't banning reserved for actual serious offenses? What did he do, besides allegedly invite some piano player here?

he's not just any piano player. He's a good one, and he's a mac user. Therefore, he has legitimate reason to be on these forums. Don't treat him badly, I'm his friend and I will stand up for him.

I can tell this is going to be one of the crazy threads that gets locked, and we all end up humiliated.

Why ? Just because I don't like your new nick ?

Come on, Besson, this has your name written all over it.

You know the old saying: it looks like sh!t, it smells like sh!t, it feels like sh!t...

It's not my nick, but even if it were this is no excuse for such rudeness on your part. It's not like some crime has been committed.

Sockpuppeting is frowned upon but we can't find any indications of it here.

The thread title stays. Welcome to life in the Lounge.

We have a natural right to make use of our pens as of our tongues, at our peril, risk and hazard.

You're right. There aren't any indications to find (that I know of). However, I don't think mods (or anyone) should go around changing the names of people's threads.

No no and no. Why are you asking other people to ask me? Let your fingers do the talking son. But since you were the OP, I'll do you the courtesy of providing you with my rationale. This here thread was going nowhere fast. It was beginning to meander topic-wise, with accusations of sockpuppeting and people with their mouths full of bait and this and that. I was going to lock your thread, which would have caused it to slowly drop out of existence, never to be seen again. But I saw a glimmer of potential in the fact that there were some amusing comments here and there. Instead of locking a thread, as we so often do, I decided to give your thread a new lease on life. To allow it to grow and mature into its own unique and interesting entity. To let it evolve into a thread the likes of which we here at MacNN Forums have never seen, let alone been a party to. A stream of consciousness to rival the greatest threads in the history of internet message boards. And you're a part of that Chief. You started it!

Now, you can keep calling for locking this and locking that, or you can embrace your newfound glory, and participate. The choice is yours. Do you want in, or do you just want to stand on the sidelines while the big kids have all the fun and reap all the rewards? Don't you want to be a part of something bigger than yourself? This thread is no longer what it was (and honestly, I'm not really sure what it was), but is now what it is.

I mean look at this mob. Look at them! Sad and lonely, with this thread as the only potential ray of sunshine in there otherwise dreary lives. Would you take that away? Think about what you'd be denying these fine folks. Turtle recently lost his job manually stimulating horses for reproductive purposes due to the poor economy. Do you want to deprive him of his one glimmer of hope in these dark times? Besson has never seen a real woman naked (I know bess, but seriously if she used to be a dude it doesn't really count). Are you going to deprive him of this thread, where he can feel relatively normal, without judgement from his peers? Spheric Harlot collects antique soda can pull-tabs. What kind of life is that? Sweet christ on a cupcake, Space Monkey has never been to space and judging by his picture, he's not even a proper monkey. Maybe a bush baby at best. Oisín is a female to male transexual who lives his life as a female transvestite. I could go on, but do I really need to? This thread is all these people have!

Think long and hard about your decision here. Son, I'll be honest, you can either **** where you eat, or you can go on about how you want this locked and you don't like that and TI changed the title of my thread. Do you really want to be responsible for some of the saddest people I've ever met being even sadder? That would make you a monster, not that I'm the judgmental type. If you can live with that, you're a stronger man than I.

And besides, I had five of these

in me when I joined in these reindeer games, and let me tell ya, at 20% abv it's about like a backfist to the cerebellum. Makes you do all kinds of loopy things. It's no excuse. But I'm still not changing the title back or locking it. You are free to start a new thread, but this one now belongs to the collective.

Personally, I think you should just go with the flow and join in. Tell us something random and go with it. What's on your mind, Sparky? How was your day at school? Seen any good movies lately? How 'bout them Mets? Work with us here!

hi i googled FTM tranvestite and saw this thread.

"Oisín is a female to male transexual who lives his life as a female transvestite. I could go on, but do I really need to? This thread is all these people have!"

Who is he? Are there pics?

See, I'm a very logical thinker. I take almost everything literally and rarely have FUN over here. Something to work on. Sorry for trying to ruin everybody's fun. My day at school was good. Except for my CRAZY theater teacher, who is good at theater, but horrible at teaching it.

It's okay son, we're here to help. Remember the words of the prophet wlonh, who saideth "Laugh and the whole lounge laugheth with you, weep and the whole lounge laugheth at you". Words to live by around here. We'll beat a sense of humor into you yet, even if it kills you! Now where my humor bat at?
