Oh, dear God.
This thread has officially jumped the shark.

Forgive me, Freepers, for I have sinned. My sins are many:
1. I linked to my own website, which is a sign of the arrogant belief that people might want to read what I write. Of course, if I didn't think that, I wouldn't write in the first place, so it's hard to see much difference.
2. I "stole bandwidth," though it's hard to see how posting a short exerpt with a link was worse than posting a long article--or how repeated insulting comments don't also "steal bandwidth."
3. I wanted people to "pay" me to be "showered with my wisdom," though my website has no advertising and costs me $299 a year to run, plus untold hours of time.
4. I used too many bullet points--or is it too few semicolons, I forget?
5. I claimed to have a graduate degree, though this couldn't be true, since I expressed myself plainly, in short paragraphs, and never used a $5 word when a two-bit word would do as well.
6. I claimed to have scars from a line-of-duty injury in the Army Reserve, though this couldn't be true either, since "people like me" usually avoid service.
7. Unlike my critics, I use my own name instead of a screen name, because I'm willing to stand up and be counted for what I say, and believe.
8. I assumed falsely that I was among friends, so any differences could be resolved amicably. Instead, I got more anger and vitriol than I ever got from liberals in the years I posted on NewsMax and on my own website. Yes, they occasionally called me "Nazi," but even the most fanatical never threatened violence or called me mentally ill--both of which are ways communists used to silence those who disagreed.
9. I assumed falsely that most conservatives are interested in saving our nation from leftists undermining it from within, and extremist Muslims attacking it from without. But instead, some are too busy squabbling among themselves about who doesn't really "fit in" with their small group--a sure recipe for defeat.
For all these sins, forgive me. My pennance will be to forgo blogging for a month. Perhaps that will be enough time for the anger to subside. Or not.

Okay...have you actually looked at its profile page?
It refers to itself in the third person -constantly-.
Salamander seems to recall that signifying some sort of pathology.
What does Humblegunner think?
Oh please.
You better take him seriously or I'LL KILL YOU!!!!
:-P
And little fleas have lesser fleas, and so ad infinitum.
And the great fleas themselves, in turn, have greater fleas to go on;
While these again have greater still, and greater still, and so on.
“Then we won’t bitch at you or try to kill you. “
Am I exempt from this?
Just askin’.
;]
LOL!
“He seemed to want to just argue and argue and argue....
Frustrating.”
OCD.
You put flees in my head so I give ‘em back....;D
Think bug bombs!
Right now I’d be glad to think of *anything* that could get “Life In The Wartime” outta my head.
*Vicious* ear worm, that.
:D
No way. The adware, trackers and cookies and many of these sites are simply atrocious. One FReeper had her email address harvested by one of these trackers on a blog. It is better for FReepers if the full blog articles were just posted here at FR.
Yeah, and guess which email address just received that bit of spam posted ^ up there.
I didn’t sign up for or request that crap, yet there it is...along with about 30 of its kinfolk.
I’m *sure* it’s just a coinkydink.
Heh heh....

You want a different song? How about "The Song That Never Ends"?
I also wrote a little song about microbes and bacteria that I love to annoy my sisters with by playing it on the piano and singing. heh heh
This is the song that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend. Some people started singing it, not knowing what it was, and they’ll continue singing it forever just because...This is the song that never ends, yes it goes on and on my friend.

Your welcome!
There's also another really annoying song (not sure if you have heard of it) that goes like this: I know a little song that gets on everybody's nerves, on everybody's nerves, on everybody's nerves. I know a little song that gets on everybody's nerves, and this is how it goes (then repeat)....I know a little song that gets on everybody's nerves, on everybody's nerves, on everybody's nerves.
