Someone in the office mentioned (joked) that we should have an SD sitcom and have members as characters.I did link them to the 2005 thread with the storyline of the Slickdeals Family...
That is old...how about a new one?
Here is the link to the original.

As I stare off into the inky abyss, I think about how I arrived at this point in my life, cold and alone in the darkness...
[flashback]
I suppose it all started about three years ago when I found an interesting online community dedicated to saving money on retail purchases. I couldn't ignore the siren call of savings, at least until I was broke. I bought too much crap I didn't have an immediate need for simply because it was too good of a deal to resist. Since I couldn't buy anything, I explored the site and found the evil underbelly, the ninth ring of hell more commonly known as The Podium. Quickly retreating, I fell into the fifth ring of hell*(1). The Lounge.
The Lounge is full of denizens of all types. Wise old souls like Zoe Moon, curious ones like nournging, scoundrels like, well, like Scoundrel and lonely ones who started off on the wrong foot and are forever condemned for those early missteps like slutsky and stomach. I've made a few friends and a few enemies along the way. The Lounge is sometimes amusing but rarely dull.
Things were going along swimmingly until I caught the eye of cupcake42. At first her attention was flattering. Suddenly it evolved into full out stalker mode. Once I learned she knew where I lived, I needed to make sure my car was in top notch condition to escape when came calling. I wanted to ask the mayor but he hasn't been seen since he won a Dell ST2210B 22-Inch Full HD Widescreen Monitor. Apparently porn is even more lifelike on the new monitor than it was on his old 24" Samsung SyncMaster 2443. The mayor hasn't even been seen driving his BMW X5 lately. So I asked mlv for the name of a good mechanic. Without hesitation he replied "VQ is a very good mechanic".
I called VQ, He instructed me to deliver my car to his workshop and if he wasn't there, leave him a note what needed to be done. VQ wasn't there so I left the following note.
"Please fix my brakes. I need them fixed so I can deal with the cupcake situation."
A day later VQ lets me know my car is ready and to please pick it up at his shop on Mt Finzz. I thought that driving back from Mt Finzz would be a good test of how well VQ fixed the brakes. After taking a taxi to his shop, I hop into my car and take off. All is well for the first couple of mile but suddenly my car gathers more and more speed. Pumping the brakes doesn't work.
[back to present]
As my car careens down Mt. Finzz, I lose control and I land in The Raddish river with a horrifying thud. I start shivering as the water slowly enters my car. I can't get the doors open. The electric windows must have shorted out when I hit the water. I am growing colder and colder by the moment. The cabin fills with water. I watch the last bit of air escape my car. Things are getting dim as my body shuts down due to the lack of oxygen. Briefly I wonder why anyone would name a river "The Raddish" until I remembered that some people name their children after bodies of water, which is just as silly when you think about it. Then I wondered if there was a river named "River" that runs through Phoenix, Arizona. Imagine if there was a greenway beside that river and it was named "Joaquin". Joaquin Phoenix Arizona Greenway where people could be found walking (and bike riding) along the River river. I curse at mlv that my final thoughts before dying are farking puns. Bad ones at that. *shakes fist*
[fade to black]
Epilogue
mlv: "I wonder if Walter got my pun when he requested the name of a good mechanic. I gave him VQ's name because he is a 'wet works' mechanic, efficient in eliminating people problems. If he wanted an automotive mechanic, he should have been more specific." mlv chuckles to himself about his cleverness. Slowly the chuckle grows into a maniacal laugh knowing he is in Walter's will and will soon get all the crap stuff he ordered from Meritline. "I might need to rent a warehouse to store all the one cent items Walter collected over the years. I also wonder if Walter knew that having been in The Lounge for so long that VQ often confuses 'breaks' with 'brakes' since he has seen it written wrong so frequently."
Walter's body was never officially found. Perhaps he is with the jiggly thread.
[scene during the rolling of credits]
Camera slow comes into focus. It is in a basement. There is a chain mounted into the wall. The camera slowly follows the change. The other end of the chain is around the wrist of a disheveled middle aged man, laying on a bed. It is a portly man badly in need of a shave. There is movement just off camera. The camera pans around, stopping on a woman. She has a huge smile on her face. It is cupcake42. She hovers over the body, staring down at it. Camera switches to her point of view. It is Walter's body. Suddenly Walter's eyes pop open.
[immediately the camera fades to black] There is a scream. The credit end leaving a possibility of a sequel. THE HORROR!!! Maybe DNC resurrected Walter like so many of those old threads he tries to bring back to life late at night.
(1) According to the Urban Dictionary, the 5th ring of hell is the ring that is reserved for bad spellers. Another source indicates the 5th ring is reserved for trolls. I believe either would apply in The Lounge.
Why wasn't Autumn in the story? She was off somewhere eating bacon off of John Stamos' photo.
And HD is all dieded and stuff.Melmo was just about to get on just as the Christian kid pushed her aside and cut in front of her. "Typical" whispers Melmo under her breath. As she walks by Schooby, they share a knowing glance and Melmo takes her seat. The doors close and Schooby drives to the next stop.
MLV is the first one on at this stop. As he gets on, he is stomping his feet. "Why are you stomping" asks Schooby. "Well, it is March 4th" replies MLV. Schooby just rolls her eyes.
As Nagin boards the bus, he smiles at Schooby and says "Morning, Gerald". By this point, Schooby is wishing she had taken a sick day. Her mood lightens up as Bloo does a quick dance before he takes his seat.
As they approach the next stop, she can see Iconian and serra sharing a quick kiss as BostonGirl glares at them. Serra gets on first and BostonGirl quickly takes the seat next to Serra before Iconian can sit down. He ends up sitting in the seat behind them.
Schooby sighs as they reach the last stop. The doors open and finzz tries to get on but the doors just are not big enough. Homycraz pushes past her while cracking some jokes about her weight. Slutsky figures it is the perfect chance so he asks out finzz. "Not if I were the last girl on Earth" screams finzz. Slutsky hangs his head and gets on the bus.
"Sorry finnz, maybe next time" says Schooby as she closes the door and takes off.
As they are driving, they pass a parking lot. Schooby spots someone keying a car. She feels the anger welling up inside "Why are people so rude? I just cannot take it anymore". She pulls the bus to the side of the road, puts it in park, and announces "Screw you guys, I am going home" and gets off the bus.
IVIax quickly runs to the drivers seat. "I'm taking this bus to Vegas" he shouts. The bus takes off and they are never heard from again.

OK, peeps...you have what...another hour and a half-ish??
It was a cool, Spring morning and the sun was shining bright. Schooby brings the bus to stop and opens the doors. She thinks to herself "Time to act like I like these people". The first one on the bus is IVIax. Schooby stops him and says "Wait, are you allowed back on here? I thought you were suspended?" IVIax just laughs and says "Yea, right." and walks to the back of the bus.
Melmo was just about to get on just as the Christian kid pushed her aside and cut in front of her. "Typical" whispers Melmo under her breath. As she walks by Schooby, they share a knowing glance and Melmo takes her seat. Landers trips going up the steps but luckily, he still has his hockey pads on and is not hurt. As Jex walks past, Schooby swears she catches the smell of nair. The doors close and she begins driving away when she suddenly feels a bump. She looks in the rear view mirror to see Vec laying in the road with tire marks on him. "Oh well" she comments.
MLV is the first one on at this stop. As he gets on, he is stomping his feet. "Why are you stomping" asks Schooby. "Well, it is March 4th" replies MLV. Schooby just rolls her eyes. As Brisar walks by, Schooby notices she is carrying a bouquet of yellow roses. Deeds is carrying several boxes from Amazon as Nate follows behind telling her how bad those processed foods are. As she starts to pull away, she sees Pig on his bike trying to catch up. She accelerates a little faster as she chuckles to herself.
As Nagin boards the bus, he smiles at Schooby and says "Morning, Gerald". By this point, Schooby is wishing she had taken a sick day. Of course, Raddish has his wedge with him and Schooby throws up in her mouth a little. Her mood lightens up as Bloo does a quick dance before he takes his seat.
As they approach the next stop, she can see BostonGirl and serra sharing a quick kiss as iconian glares at them. Serra gets on first and BostonGirl takes her time as she re-applies her cherry chapstick. Iconian kicks serra's shin as he walks by and takes the seat behind BG and serra.
Schooby sighs as they reach the next stop. The doors open and finzz tries to get on but the doors just are not big enough. Homycraz pushes past her while cracking some jokes about her weight. Slutsky figures it is the perfect chance so he asks out finzz. "Not if I were the last girl on Earth" screams finzz. Slutsky hangs his head and gets on the bus. As TigerStar gets on, everyone quickly puts their books next to them so he cannot sit by them. He is forced to sit in the seat behind Schooby.
"Sorry finnz, maybe next time" says Schooby as she closes the door and takes off.
Schooby opens the door at the next stop to hear cgrady shouting "Steam!" and thelnel52 yelling "Steam Powered!". "Not this again" thinks Schooby. Just then, a police car pulls up and bryantq gets out and tases cgrady as Ace chases after thenel52.
As they are driving, they pass a parking lot. Schooby spots someone keying a car. She feels the anger welling up inside "Why are people so rude? I just cannot take it anymore". She pulls the bus to the side of the road, puts it in park, and announces "Screw you guys, I am going home" and gets off the bus.
IVIax quickly runs to the drivers seat. "I'm taking this bus to Vegas" he shouts. The bus takes off and they are never heard from again.
