Top 7 Least Popular Subjects of Conversation on FR (vanity)

There have been many days where a freeper will eagerly log onto FreeRepublic, scan the news, then the chat, then the blogs, and then even the Smoky Back Room, only to find no subject that catches his interest.

So in the interest of weeding out subject matter that is too boring to deal with, here at the Pissant Reasearch University for Newsworthy Endeavors (PRUNE) we've compiled the list of topics that are sure to induce sleep in even the most caffeinated insomniac!

Top 7 Boring FR Topics

7. Howard Deans Speeches. Granted, during his brief moment in the sun when he was leading the other Dem candidates, his speeches made for entertaining fodder. Unfortuantely now, even the Democrats think he is an unbearable bore, and tune him out.

6. Anna Kournikova Picture Threads. Unfortunately, with the demise of KidGlock (he was banned), the Anna threads have not been the same. The reason was that KidGlock would post 75 pictoral responses to himself. We miss him...

5. Reality TV Threads. The number of freepers who watch reality TV shows peaked the 1st year of Survivor. The numbe of viewers now is down to about 3. And that's only because they want to see Paris Hilton's tush.

4. NASCAR Threads. The all time peak was when Danica Patrick exploded on the scene. Perdogg led the pack, thankfully. But alas, now it's back to cars going around in circles.

3. African Political Threads. It has often been said that the world doesn't pay enough attention to Africa. Very true, and the Freepers are no different.

2. Pissant Vanity Threads. There are two kinds of posters on PVTs. Those who post in sympathy, and those who post urging me to go crawl back under my rock...

1. Serious Analysis of world affairs from Democrat Intellectuals. Don't know if these are actually boring or not, since there hasn't been a intellectual democrat since Scoop Jackson died.

I'll put you down in the "Pissant - go crawl back under the rock" category. ;o)

LOL!!!

[Nita Nupress]

Thank you. I like to drop in to FR from time to time just to add a little intellectual discourse. :-)

[Dashing Dasher]

You need to get with Puke dog and start a vanity business, you could do the stand up comedy part.

No one forces you to read either. I enjoy both.

But, I'm special. ;-)

[Knitting A Conundrum]

Then there's the various religous groups that post against the various other religious groups...sometimes two or three people locked in an endless discussion that will affect no one's pov...I'd rather read the evolution vs. young earth posts. And I avoid those discussions like the plague.

But then that's me.

I think grok has the next one

Lowe's at Charlotte

FReshly leveegrated .. might be a high number caution race

[PaulaB]

;) other threads/posts that get my goat

1. People telling other people whats wrong with them
2. People assuming we want to hear what got them into the mental ward to begin with
3. RUDENESS
4. People that say "This thread is a repeat" real nasty like..OK well take your butt off the thread then or don't come in here with an attitude

**sheesh its Monday and I have a thorn in my foot** ;)

[CJ Wolf]

The mysterious, disappearing zot threads.

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

well that goes without saying. Pissant needs two stalkers definitely.

[EX52D]

LOL...and I'm the third...

[Dashing Dasher]

I agree with all of yours.

Along with the...

My opinion is correct and you are stupid if you don't see it

Threads.

[blau993]

And a variant on the competitive religion threads -- threads involving the Balkans. We have some very angry Serbs and Armenians lurking about FR. I wandered into one of those by mistake one day and was lucky to escape with all body parts intact.

[PaulaB]

A good example of this

is the other day a mother

got on here and posted a vanity

asking what the Iron Cross was...

her kid had received a skate board

that had it on there...the dad took the sticker

off and threw it away....so she wanted

correct info about it...

do you know people actually started

attacking her character...

there are some real weirdos on here

and I avoid them like the plague

whatever happened to common decency?

[Dashing Dasher]

Three stalkers...

What a lucky guy!


;-)

(let's see if we can make it 4? Millee are you in?)

[EX52D]

LOL...until he makes pisses one of us off. :)

[Dashing Dasher]

I read that thread - when it was still early in the yelling...

I thought it was ridiculous. Those vanities could go - imho.

[Dashing Dasher]

True True True!!!

[PaulaB]

I agree...people set themselves up

for the loonies on here...its like

watching a train wreck ;)

BTW Millee is out on vacation in Oregon

somewhere..she said she would call us to come

for her if she ends up in jail...I told her we had

her back

**LOL**
