A University of Maryland study funded by the Department of Homeland Security found that “persons reverent about individual liberty are likely to be right-wing terrorists.” “It makes perfect sense when you think about it,” said Secretary Janet Napolitano. “The phrase ‘individual liberty’ doesn’t appear in any of our nation’s founding documents. Its advocates are clearly and suspiciously out of step with America’s basic values.”

Nailed!
Somebody take a wizz on your oatmeal?
There is no need for you to be a jerk. Shows a lack of class on your part.
Grow up.
Yeah, ain’t that a crock?
That’s right, Bubby, get it all out. You’ll feel better tomorrow.
There is no need for you to be a jerk.
***Semens is the jerk here. He loves catching other freepers with his craptire.
No. You need to be astute enough to know the difference. Steel sharpens steel type of thing.
If he posts something that is satire and someone falls for it and doesn't check it out; shame on them.
Good satire is close to the truth. I think good satire can be a powerful weapon to open eyes and minds to reality.
These satires have been being posted to FR long before I ever recall seeing your screen nzme.
So, maybe it’s just you.
Isn’t there some perpetual motion thread you can go to and screech about seagulls, lol?
I gather you don’t like what I write, here on your supposedly humourous thread. Gosh, if humour is the intent, then why doesn’t Semen-boy just include [satire] in the title? Oh, the simple answer to that simple question is... that humour is not the intent. So your craptire thread is filled with un-humourous responses. Gee, if you don’t like that, maybe you should have a simple discussion with the semen-boy who keeps blogpimping this stuff.

***yeah, right, sparky. I signed up 2 months after JimRob, a full 7 years before you did. Sometimes craptire is just craptire.
No. You need to be astute enough to know the difference.
***No. He’s just a jerk.

***Well, thanks for the admission of guilt. The intention is not humor, it is craptire. Also, what you say amounts to an open invitation for me to come onto these craptire threads and point out how mean-spirited and stupid this semen-boy is. Look through the threads where Semen-boy ‘catches’ someone — are they really that funny? No, they aren’t.
Good satire is close to the truth.
***Then if it really is good satire, having the [satire] notice in the title won’t damage it. What Semen-boy throws together wouldn’t pass such a litmus test.
I think good satire can be a powerful weapon to open eyes and minds to reality.
***And I think your admission above is a sign that humor is not the intent of these craptire threads. Thanks for the invitation.
Don’t like the thread? No one’s holding you here against your will. Maybe you can start an InTrade line on who will last the longest on FR, you or the author of the satire that’s got you in such a high maintenance tizz.
I agree that satire should be part of the title and have informed the poster but he has never responded to me because he knows if he did no one would read his crap.

Don’t like the thread?
***No, I don’t. Don’t like what I write about the craptire that Semen-boy puts together? Maybe you should ask him to politely put [satire] in the title. But, you probably won’t, which gives me all the ammunition I need to continue pointing out how amazingly dimwitted this stuff is. So in a way, you HAVE generated a starting point for humor in this thread, although that was not the original intent of the thread author.
Semen-boy responded to me a while back. He said basically, since [satire] was in the keywords, that was good enough. Does anyone really read keywords?
Of course, [craptire] is also in a lot of the keywords for his rubbish threads, but he seems to pretend to be too slow on the uptake to realize that. The obvious intent is to catch freepers. The obvious intent is craptire.
Early on, I was snared. Didn't ruin my life. So why are you getting your shorts in a knot?
You must be a lot of fun at parties.
You appear to be under the mistaken impression that you’re in control, here.
No one owes you a thing and no one is obligated to accomodate your screeching, no matter how obnoxious you become.
When looking at the latest posts the keywords aren't detailed so "satire" or "crap" should be in the title.
The problem is that you can’t read.
***Surely, you don’t mean that? If you thought I couldn’t read, you would not have written to me.
John calls his pieces “Semi-news, semi-satire.” Seems self-explanatory to me.
***And others call his pieces “craptire”, “stupid”, “waste of time” , and “not worth reading”. Seems self-explanatory to me.
Early on, I was snared.
***Then what is the point? A bunch of junior high freepers doing the high-five because they caught you? If the writing was any good, you’d have read past the [satire] in the title.
Didn’t ruin my life.
***Oh, I get it. You’re using exaggeration here. Just like, perhaps, you used it in the first sentence. Wow, your writing has so much more clarity than Semen-boy’s.
So why are you getting your shorts in a knot?
***Oh, this is some kind of humorous expression, right? So... humor is the intent of this sentence? Unlike the intent of these craptire threads... otherwise, [satire] would be in the title.
You must be a lot of fun at parties.
***I sure is. You should see my semen-boy impersonation.
