Blogs, Blogs, and More Blogs

As I was skimming posts on here, I noticed the many complaints about blog pimps. My own blog is not at all political, so breathe a sigh of relief, you won't see me posting any articles on here from it. :)

But, sometimes when I get a down moment, I like to see what others have written.

So, if you have a blog, feel free to post your link and what it's about here.

“That’s a plus.”

True. Hey didja see Uncle Alice the other night on TV? He’s still got it. Frank Zappa’s kid Dweezil played with him and sounded pretty good, too.

“I called my psychiatrist and he said that your post was not a passive-aggresive statement.”

He was being passive aggressive.

LOL! Another virtuoso performance by our own Allegra. Give her a big hand, folks.

If you can stop laughing, that is.

LOL on the Paula shot!

BTW, we get "American Idol" here on AFN on a one-day-delay.

I watched one and it was awful.

Without Simon Cowell's caustic criticism, it's lost what little verve it ever had.

[Allegra]

OK...I'll give the video a hit...tomorrow.

'Tis after midnight and time for me to study the insides of my eyelids for a few hours.

'Night, all!

“Hey there brutha!
Who you jivin’ with that Kozmik Debris?”

The problems with blogs and blogpimps here at FR fall into a couple of catagories, some more serious than others. The ones I’m concerned about...

** Blogpimps who sign up here today and post a one sentence excerpt from their brand new blog that says nothing more important than the average post in a similar thread at FR.

** Blogpimps who sign up here today, and post a one sentence excerpt from their brand new blog that they cut and pasted word for word from a legitimate (and copyrighted) news source.

** Same as above, only with copyrighted pictures from legitimate sources with no proper attribution for that picture.

** Same as above, only they post an article here in Breaking News with what looks like a legitimate link, only it is back to their site where they cut and pasted legitimate breaking news from AP.

** Blogpimps who do the above over and over and over again using lame variations on the same old themes.

Some of the blogpimps are merely amateurish and annoying. Some are disturbingly persistent and if one pays attention to them you start to see posting patterns with some and its clear we’re dealing with the same damned person over and over again.

Some people have no other life than what they fantasize about online, or cannot gainfully occupy themselves other than by disrupting websites like Free Republic. Others still are maliciously trying to pimp hits to their site where they have all manner of click-and-contaminate phishware and links to God knows what else.

We have seen it all here at FR, and many of us are sick and tired of the nonstop assault on the senses from some of the usual suspects. Many of them have absolutely nothing to say and are desperately trying to get any kind of attention on the intarwebs, especially so they can Tweet, Twitter, Facebook, or otherwise show it off to all of their pathetic little friends.

Does that about cover it for you??

“I guess I missed it”

You missed that one, too. I was joking about the psychiatrist.

[Lees Swrd]

Just a little comedy LOL. Saw you guys posting here and thought I would post that, I found it while looking for some AI stuff lmao. Thought I was going to puke there for a minute.
