We've all done it. You've just gotten home, logged on to FR, and are scrolling down the "Latest Posts" page, deciding which thread will get your attention this evening, when THAT SCREENNAME jumps out at you in a "to" or "from" position. You are powerless to resist; if THAT GUY's there, it's gonna be a good thread...
All of us have our own "favorites" among the many colorful souls who congregate at this fine website. They could be someone you disagree totally with, agree completely with, or somewhere in between. They might be a fount of useful information, links, and facts. Our favorite might be devastating at the art of debate; demolishing opponents in truly unique style, or he might be just plain nuttier than squirrel dung, but fun nonetheless.
Perhaps your favorite FReeper has a way with words; an excellent writer. Maybe they are someone highly experienced in a particular field, with knowledge that many do not posess. Maybe they're dumber than a bag of hammers.
Point is, no matter what the reason, our "favorite FReepers"' handle attached to a thread makes it all the more interesting to us; it guarantees a wild ride or sublime pleasure in the reading and learning. It may also guarantee an increase in blood pressure and indigestion, but one thing's for sure...that thread HE's on is gonna get a hit or two, and it won't be boring.
I've got more than a few of my own, and I'm sure all of you do as well. WHO'S YOURS?????????????????
LOL
Yeah yeah - you're on the good list, too! LOL!!
LOL!
Well.. Problem for me is that I like so many peole that I have to make a generalization.
But you can't post "YOU!!!" and have anyone know what you're speaking of.
You'd get alot of Bunny pancake references for that one..
Speaking of which.. we need a bunny with pancake pic as I've just gone through this whole thread and no-one has posted it yet.
Got devoured alive by a rose bush.
Got chased into it by a wasp.
And had a carpenter bee commiserate with me for a few minutes.
*LOL*
Oddly, it's just a spot on my left arm and the back of my neck that char-broiled.
But it feels like it is a huge tract of real estate instead.
LOL!!!!
My faves are everyone on this site who support my heroes in the military. There are some whom I disagree with on other issues, but if we agree on that one then we can go from there.
How's that for a generalization?
Gotta go get ready for work! Unnnnnngh! :o)
LOL, yeah.
Thread of people I hate: TROLLS
And that would be about it.
*chuckle*
Thank you. It was a poem I had heard when in school. I had forgotten the poem until 2 yrs. ago when we were visiting Monticello. In the gift shop I bought a book titled "American History Stories you never read in school". It is a wonderful book! It contained the poem, which was based on a true story and many other wonderful nuggets. My favorite one is the capture of General Prescott. He was a tyrant in the British army and our brave Americans showed savvy in capturing him. I bought the book for my daughter but it seems to stay in my room! I pick it up from time to time just to reread the stories.
Alot better than my "YOU!!!!"
;-)
"Team We Suck" in a nutshell.
But they're fun to toy with on occasion. ;-)

-good times, G.J.P. (Jr.)
That they are!
Awww...you are the sweetest! You are one of my favorites, too. I really loved the AI threads. Good, catty fun! LOL!! I can't wait until next season.
Consider yourself Pingable ...

RWOS...
She hasn't been writing anything, unfortunately. I usually only PING when she writes a column.
I'm also looking for someone to take over the Ingraham PING list, as I'm not going to be FReeping much after I move (I won't have an internet connection at home, I'm afraid).
Oh stop it! You are giving me a big head! ;-)
You guys are so sweet and it's just what I needed this morning.
P.S. My birthday is August 1. LOL!! ;-)
Thanks!
LOL!
jj, who gifted us with a thread to call OURS, after we pirated it of course.
I agree. There are about 8000 Freepers I really admire and maybe a dozen that I think are wackos.
