When the Writer's Corner was put up, there was some discussion about whether or not to "allow" silliness. That soon disappeared as the section developed a life of its own. There are now short stroies being created that are silly right alongside discussions about crafting stories and examples of poetry and "serious" stories with some dark bent to them.
As my Mom, the wisest woman I've ever met says, "Everything will work out for the best." Note that seh didn't say that it will work out the way you want it to...

I think your mother is a very wise woman!
I am sorry that it seems to have digressed to an US vs Them feeling at all!
I am sure that wasn't the purpose of the original post. Although I rarely understand many of the inside jokes and double entendre (the squirrel references being a point in fact), I get a chuckle out of reading others' responses to them. I like to look through the Lounge now and then and read some of the posts there even though I feel insecure in posting to them. I know that I too would be interested in both the Lounge section and a less silly section. I like diversity and the idea that I have a choice.
