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?????????????????
Must have caused a ruckus on another thread.
Which posts in particular?
You didn't go over to the punchline thread, did you?
LOL!!!

Clemenza,
How did you get on my Republican Women of Substance Ping List?
Palladin said you are a boy and we are confused.
Do you want to stay on the list or do you want to go on the "other cool guys" list!?
*kicks ground
*gets bashful

Whew!
It would be easier to name the Freepers that I don't like :)
PS: To everyone I pinged, please don't feel obligated to reply. I just couldn't let this thread go without acknowledging a few of my own favorites :)
How could I forget Sara!? You're one of my favorites, too :)
Thanks, Jonny. It's mutual. =) You are a braver soul than I in trying to name the faves.
Teeny, if you have such a thread, I would love to be on it.
There are so many people I like, I'm afraid I'll forget someone :-) I like most everyone in FR, even the people I disagree with it and used to go back and forth with. The only people I don't care for have managed to get on the ozone express :-)
May I be added to this list? Please.
Jonny, you know we love you.
YOU are my VERY favorite, and the Dosers and the wonderful AI group we have going.
Great freepers on both threads. With special mention to netizen, granitestateconservative, beandog, emily geiger, retrokitten, wolfstar, tired of laundrey etc.
And you, young man, I wish I was younger or my daughter was older. You'd be a great catch. :-)
Thanks for the acknowledgement
Eleanor

Of course! Sara. Thanks for the reminder jonny.
Sara, you are a delight to have around.
Eleanor, you have been a joy to have around.
In your new "job" as the UK Bureau Chief for the Dose, you have really taken on something hard and made it look easy.
Thank you for all that and BTW, what is your official title?
Tammy
