 5. Passive-aggressive keyword epithet war

 4. Satire posts that fool you (the rest are hilarious)

That’s fine. As a rule, banks have done nothing but impede my growth as a small business person who runs several businesses. I’ve grown each of my companies organically (a result of my hatred for banks). If you can look at the powerful banks and find no corruption you are either willfully blind, or on their “payroll.”

“...the institutions of capitalism that have created every scrap of wealth they have ever touched.”

I create the wealth I touch, thank you very much. Banks tend to want to bleed me of it at every opportunity.

“economic superiors in every respect”

Whoa...easy there, your highness.

I see, and I agree. However, I have seen “blog pimp” used more loosely than what you describe, that’s all.

Threads that compare Michelle Obama to a Wookie.

She is no wookie. She is a sasquatch. Even says "goonie goo go."

Typical Wookie.

Michelle at the White House and in the Woods.

You’re not going to put forth that they would disagree with the “false/unverified” quotes are you?

Now, broadband is the future. In order to remain on the “Autobahn” that IS the Internet, you need a Lamborghini, NOT a Yugo.

I want neither a Yugo nor a Lamborghini, but something useful like a Ford F150. That is what FR is. Although I like cup holders and CD players and all, that is not what makes a truck a good truck(or car).

12) Starting religious cat fights.

Especially Evolution/Creation cat fights.

Which are always posted to News/Activism instead of Religion, where they belong.

Bugs me we can’t post more articles from the MSM.

I know that’s not our fault, but think it would be a handy reference for tracking/debunking a lot of what’s put out there for the unsuspecting public.

Also, bummed that there are a lot of banned FReepers - I really enjoyed some of the give-and-take. Not sure why many of them were “disappeared”, but just doesn’t sit right with me. (Yeah, I know about this being a privately run site, etc. etc., but just think the place is a little poorer for it). IMHO

This is a staff blog at Columbia University (Dept. of Statistics)...the funny thing is that the blog author who posted the quote sourced it at Wikipedia...and Wikipedia indicates its an unverified quote...nice try.

http://etext.virginia.edu/jefferson/quotations/jeff1325.htm

Do you see your complete quote on this page...or just a fraction of it with the fake part appended?

I know the founders’ sentiment in this. You can ignore the point if you’d like.

FReep this poll without post a link that opens in another window -- so I can keep reading the threads.

I’ve only seen it as a JPG. You may have to recreate it yourself.

I know of some trolls who admit to searching out threads just to see if someone said something that might offend them.

And you have never clicked on a thread about the horrors of public schools.

Just to see if something might offend you.

Hypocrite.
