The lounge is an unnecessary waste of time. But it doesn't do much harm and it can be fun.

The link claims that ABM missle is a tautology because it stands for "Anti Balistic Missile missile" but it's not a tautology because it's a missile that shoots down balistic missiles so the two "Missiles" is necessary.
Other tautologies:
"Idiot socialist"
"Arrogant Frenchman"
"Fat Chav"
