We have had enough whistler posts for a while... can management provide some guidance?

Why do we have a Dodgers section?

Can I post about The Artful here?

The Artful Dodger is a (fictional ) person not a place. If you didn't get that, I have no hope for the others, and we should never speak of this awkward situation again.

The only phase the board has is Grip It and Rip It. If you don't like the mop up duty Whistler provides, get in there and tale some cuts.

I got the allusion, which was also used by a Bucktown bar of the same name--a dark, shadowy neighborhood drinking hole that strangely also featured a strobe-lit dance floor onto which regulars would stagger and lurch after a few shots had stripped them of their coordination and self-awareness. It was a bit of a spiritual home for me shortly before and after I turned 21. The place had a very odd noirish energy, like it had been transported directly from a David Lynch movie. In a development that shocked the neighborhood, I once managed to pick up a girl there, a patrician redhead who had just graduated from Vassar. She grew to despise me after two dates.

Sox fans created it back when the cubs were playing the dodgers in the nlcs.

I vaguely remember that place. Hazily.

That's the only way to remember it.

Seacrest is busy censoring and judging other more worthy posters.

Whenever we move to Phase 4, Frank will be here having a tantrum that it took too long.

Please reassess your rankings of the 5 women. Just do me a favor and take another look.

I loved that place. I didn't really fit in with the hipsters, but the women there were amazing. They were totally out of my league, but amazing. I just liked to watch all the people there being whatever they were.
