Alright, so I started a Facebook group called The Argyle Lounge that I think you should join. Don’t worry, I’m not going to start sending out messages every time I update. I just think it would be a nice place for fans of this blog to meet “face to face” and build on the friendships you guys have already developed with each other thus far. There’s a message board there so you can start topics inspired by posts here, or about movies, television shows, books, or anything else your heart desires. So CLICK HERE to join the group or just do a Facebook search for “The Argyle Lounge – Puntabulous” and you’ll find it. If you’re not on Facebook, start an account already! All the cool kids are doing it.

Gah I was hoping I’d be first to join but Nicole beat me!
October 21st, 2008 at 8:30 pm
Fun! I just hopped on this bandwagon.
October 21st, 2008 at 9:20 pm
Well, if all the cool kids are doing it…
October 21st, 2008 at 9:44 pm
I thought this entry was supposed to contain n00dz or something?!
October 21st, 2008 at 9:46 pm
Oh great, now you are going to force me to join Facebook. Sigh. I’ve been avoiding but will break down because I desperately want to be one of the in-crowd. Great idea though.
October 21st, 2008 at 9:46 pm
Nope. That’s tomorrow’s post. And don’t get too excited! No n00dz!
October 21st, 2008 at 9:50 pm
I KNEW I joined Facebook all those months ago for SOME reason….and Lord knows I can’t resist any kind of peer pressure, so off I go to join! Yippee!
HUGS…

Face what now?
October 22nd, 2008 at 7:35 am
John: Face the wall and spread ‘em. Oh wait, got side tracked in a fantasy.
October 22nd, 2008 at 8:01 am
Awesome. What a great idea. I’ll have to wait to join when I get home though…
October 22nd, 2008 at 8:50 am
Just a reminder for all of you that want to keep your private lives off the web don’t use your real name on facebook or you will show up on google and that fling you had in college that turned into a stalker will find you right away…
October 22nd, 2008 at 9:06 am
Oh Tam, suddenly I’m a little light headed….
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:16 am
This is all well and good, but aside from a few people who use their real names when they comment, I have no idea who people are. Polt? Tam?
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:35 am
I used my real name David. I see Polt’s name is different but his purple eyeball from his avatar is there. My picture is the same as here now. I need a freaking tutorial on Facebook from my 13 year old. Sigh. And I have no friends. Waaaahhh. Mind you, there is nothing to see on my page anyway.
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:40 am
How will I maintain my secret identity if I join. How will I maintain my love for craig if I don’t?! OH NO!
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:42 am
Joemo: There’s only one way to make it up to me… see you in a few hours.
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:44 am
Or I should say Tam is my real name. Well, sort of. Its the internet version of my name. I know if anyone ever phones my house and asks for Tam its an internet stalker because no one IRL calls me that, or not many.
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:46 am
Joe: Just lie about your name. It says “You must use your real name” but its not like the Facebook police show up at your door to confirm. Put your name as Joemo Sexual. Put the rest of the info in random, except your birthday, otherwise how will we know when to send you presents?
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:46 am
David: I’m afraid I can’t help you out with that. If people want to be anonymous, there’s not much I can do. Perhaps people will “out” themselves on the Wall if they use a codename to comment here?
Oh, and FYI – Just because you join the group, doesn’t mean everyone else in the group can see your profile. You would still need to add each other as friends in order to see each other’s profiles, so your secret identities can still be mostly concealed.
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:48 am
There I joined. Because I’m awesome. That’s what awesome people do.
October 22nd, 2008 at 11:49 am
HOLLER!
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:04 pm
Joe: Awesome doesn’t begin to describe it.
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:21 pm
Joemo Sexual…BWAHAHAHAH!!!
Damn blocker here at work wont let into that other site Craiggers, nor will it let me into the comments section of the post above. I’ll have to wait until I get home…damn the blocker at work, and damn my impatience!
HUGS…
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:22 pm
I used my real name, and cell phone number, and address…
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:31 pm
haha Polt don’t laugh at my given name!!!! someone’s got to carry it on…..
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:32 pm
I’m surprised my work lets us into Facebook, but I suppose since we have a work Facebook group or two and my biggest boss has her own page I guess it makes sense, although perhaps not from a productivity standpoint. Although happy workers are productive workers right? So keep my happy.
Nicky: But some people here might not know your “real” name since its NOT Nicky.
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:42 pm
Ok so i don’t watch the show, but I remember everyone talking about it yesterday…..So i thought you might enjoy:

ARG! Joemo! I wanted to post that link on the Argyle Lounge Wall! But I don’t have access to Facebook here at work
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:53 pm
Thanks Joe. Gotta love actors who really get into their work.
I read that John Barrowman did some kind of documentary in the UK to try and determine whether there was a gay gene or nature/nurture or something like that. He was the guinea pig to see if they could find some genetic marker that “made” him gay. No idea about any details but I did read that somewhere, sometime.
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:53 pm
I can post it Craig.
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:56 pm
Done.
October 22nd, 2008 at 12:56 pm
Thanks Tam!
October 22nd, 2008 at 1:16 pm
Tam: I saw the documentary, it was pretty good. He is very charismatic and was fun to watch. Some of it felt a little staged/affected, but overall it was good.
October 22nd, 2008 at 1:22 pm
Sorry to step on your toes craigery. You snooooze you looooooose
October 22nd, 2008 at 1:25 pm
It’s okay Joemo. You know I can’t stay mad at you.
October 22nd, 2008 at 1:33 pm
le siiiiigh
October 22nd, 2008 at 1:37 pm
Oh and I gave Joe credit on Facebook, Craig. But I know you’ll forgive me even if I’m not as cute (or bendy) as he is.
October 22nd, 2008 at 1:59 pm
>>I used my real name, and cell phone number, and address…
Yeah, all my info is attached to my Facebook too. As soon as I join (when I get home), all you guys are going to be able call and chitchat.
We can all feverishly text each other during Heroes commercial breaks!
October 22nd, 2008 at 2:38 pm
joemosexual: After seeing those photos, don’t you WANT to watch the show now???? Thanks for posting it!
Dave S.: Or we could feverishly text during Torchwood commericals….whenever Torchwood comes back (read yesterday BBCAmerica picked up the third season, still in production, for Fall 2009. Damn a WHOLE year…..
HUGS…
October 22nd, 2008 at 2:43 pm
Oh and yeah, Facebook and my real name and stuff, but I put up my purple eyeball icon so every can know it’s me…..or did someone above already comment about this………..Sorry, work’s been a bit hectic….
HUGS….
October 22nd, 2008 at 2:57 pm
Fall 2009 Polt? What kind of suckage is that? Blah. Please let Cdn Space pick it up before then. *praying to the Torchwood gods* I did comment on your purple eyeball.
My Facebook has no info except my e-mail and I think you have to be my friend to see it. But hey, be my friend, then I’ll e-mail you all my personal information. LOL I have no friends since I only joined today. No wait, Craig is my friend. Ha, guess I have the important one now. My bird is the same and my name is the same.
October 22nd, 2008 at 3:25 pm
Ohhh, Joe and Polt are my friends now. I can die happy. Maybe there is something to this Facebook addiction thingy.
October 22nd, 2008 at 3:28 pm
Good point Tam!
My name is Enrico by the way, Nicky’s a nickname.
But you all should know that…
(http://hoteltuesday.blogspot.com/2008/08/my-name-is.html)
October 22nd, 2008 at 3:32 pm
Hi Enrico. *waving*
October 22nd, 2008 at 3:41 pm
Enrrrrrrrrrrrico! (If I wasn’t clear, I rolled my tongue hardcore while saying that.)
October 22nd, 2008 at 3:56 pm
I have a sudden urge to follow that up with: “Suuuuaaaaave”
October 22nd, 2008 at 4:46 pm
john: tee hee.
I can’t believe no one has sent me a friend request.
!
!!
!!!
Was it something I wrote? So I sent out 3 requests: Tam, Nicky and polt as you are cool and I recognize your avatars. I would add more awesome Puntabulous commentors if I knew who you were…
Feel free to add me. Or don’t. Whatever. Jeez.
October 22nd, 2008 at 5:29 pm
john…I did the suave thing right after reading Craigger’s reply too!
HUGS…
October 22nd, 2008 at 5:55 pm
Michelle M.: Excellent!
Polt: Great minds *do* think alike!
October 22nd, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Ohh, Michelle, I’ve accepted you. I’m not sure who people are necessarily so they have to add me.
October 22nd, 2008 at 6:44 pm
Yay we’re friends now Craig!
October 22nd, 2008 at 6:59 pm
Ah, sweet acceptance…
October 22nd, 2008 at 7:24 pm
I get that a lot.
October 23rd, 2008 at 12:31 pm
I just wanted you to know that my husband bought an Argyle Sweater Vest…I think of you every time I see it!
October 23rd, 2008 at 12:33 pm
Yes! That’s awesome!
