Are you having your fifteen minutes of FRame???

[Jo Nuvark]

I just noticed that batter gave me credit for FRink.
However, I didn’t make it up, I just told him about
it. Unless someone knows who first used the word,
credit should probably go to all the Levinoholics
who FRequent the lounge.

[Albion Wilde]

Great job, batter! Bookmarked.

Ping.

[Red Badger]

Hey! That’s a good one, too! It could also be abbreviated: FBA...........

[Fudd Fan]

That’s the way I understood it, that you were being given credit for reporting the term and not for inventing it. Which is fine because I have no idea who first said it! lol

[batter]

Fudd is correct, I was just crediting you for making me aware of and helping define the term. If you were the originator, I try to specifically say so and provide a link to the original post.

[batter]

I ran a few searches and the term is used enough around here and is pretty specific to FR, as far as I can tell. Added with credit to Lurker for coining the term.

The Lexicon (with the updates from this thread) is up on my profile page.

See this post for the origin of the term (original headline of post).

I miss Don Morgan, FR Changed my word usage forever, socalist security, sheeple, Hitlery, Guberment Skools. I was on the thread when A+Bert went South, the old b*stard was entertaining, before he hit the cooking sherry.

[Squantos]

The good ole days........:o)

Sheeple I use at work every day in my safety briefings to my crew. Ok Sheeple .......Stay safe ! Also hispandering, polidiots, presstitutes are new in my vocabulary.

Lots of old freepers gone. Sneakypete, Harpseal, Texas Cowboy.........I miss em !

DITHF and Ash....... I missed them by an inch at 300 yards per se......the little turdburglers !

Stay safe Little Bill !!

[Little Bill]

You must work in a Union shop. As a Shift Manager I start my daily Safety talk to the Foreman and troops, OK you Socialists, I have been around a long time and they put up with me.

FR was a new experience for me when I discovered it in '97 when *Prodigy when down the toilet. I do think that we lack the debate that we had in those days, for good or ill.

Nawww not a union shop.... albeit some of the contract maintence sorts are union break monkeys. My safety brief deals with HE and other forms of boomage......:o)

I like yours though....OK YOU SOCIALISTS !!!

That’s funnier than hell ! I’ll have to remember that.

Agree on the disagree to disagree around here of late......JR did purge the place right proper of most of the RINOS ! Better these days as some folks go on the attack but I thank em for their opinion and press on......

The Howlers are gone. That made me happy !

Stay safe !

Barbra Streisand - euphemism for Bull S***

I think you have this backwards: Bull S*** is a euphamism for Barbra S*******.
