I guess I'm not altogether sure what you mean, Arya. I think I'm too out of the loop to even know who/what you're referring to.
It seems to me that the lounge is just a hotbed for weirdness that is rarely music related. Whether or not certain people spark or fuel that is rather beyond me. I would agree with you that there's no reason to be so serious! If people get easily offended, could it be because the topics people are generating are too sensitive?
