Tips on how to be a good "FReeper"
self ^ | 26 Dec, 2007 | Self

It seems to me that we are getting a lot of new members and the following may be helpful to them.

Live in a solid "red" state and when anybody complains about some asinine law in their blue state, tell them to "just move from there". The simplistic solution is always the best one. Refer to California as Californicate or Kalifornia. The people's republic of (insert state name here) is always good.

When an article appears about something negative happening in public schools, proudly proclaim that all your kids are home schooled and geniuses to boot. Extra points if you also state "Publik educashun suks" extra, extra points if you put "home school" in caps and add a few exclamination points.

Any article posted about guns being used in a crime, be sure to ask what caliber gun was used and berate the author for leaving out that very relevant fact. If the good guy shot at the bad guy and missed, tell everybody that he needs more range time. Helpful also to mention what an excellent marksman you are. Post a picture of one of your guns for extra points.

When an article about those deceptive credit card companies is posted, post a reply stating one of the following, "I don't have a credit card and never will", or "I have credit cards but pay all balances if full every month", extra points if yours is the first reply on the matter. If you can squeeze it in there, also let folks know that you don't own a television set anymore and haven't since 1967. If you can't get that in, you'll just have to wait for a thread about the MSM to post it. Don't even hint at the fact that most articles posted here are from the MSM.

A "noob" or "Newbie" is a member who has been here one day less than you have, an old timer has been here at least one day longer. Noobs opinions don't mean very much because they all started forming their political philosophies the day they signed up here.

Become adept at using these terms, Noobie, troll, DUer, idiot, bigot, moron (preferred spelling - "maroon"), IBTZ etc.

Join one or more of the following as soon as possible, Spelling police, grammar police, thread police. Extra points if you join all three

I'm not fully coffeed up yet,am I logged in? Any helpful suggestions or additions are welcome.

I agree. A pretty girl can cut off your head and get a not guilty vote because of how she looks...PITIFUL!!

In fact, I ask why such dreck is posted on a the "premier conservative forum."

Have you ever seen the topics in G/C?

There is a topic specifically for 'Music and Entertainment'; just as there are topics for gardening, sports, computers, poetry, outdoors, UFOs, etc.

Never do get an answer.

I just answered it for you. If you don't like it take it up with Jim. I'm sure he'd be happy to take away the 'Music and Entertainment' topic just for you because you "don't care" :)

Here’s a hint on how to be a good Freeper: Don’t spam every Huckabee thread with identical one-sentence Hunter pimping. It gets old.
