“pimp my blog”

You’re the second person that became highly offended that someone would have the audacity to write something that didn’t come from the New York Times or with a CBS byline.

I mean Lord knows if you don’t work for the NY Times or CBS you can’t possibly have the learnin necessary to speak on any subject except for maybe ‘Dancing with the Stars’

So please accept my sincere apology for corrupting the purpose of FR. Reading columns from learned people like Paul Krugman and then show everyone you understood all the big words

Wow. It really is all about you.

1st. You really are not particularly brigh. In fact, you might be intellectually shallower than a dry river bed but, I didn’t read you blog.

2nd. This community pays for this site. It isn’t ad supported and we don’t take kindly to smart alec’s who prove with their response they aren’t interested so much in discourse as they are about promoting themselves.

3rd. We got no beef with bloggers but again, we pay for this site and don’t believe it should be used as a part of anyone’s business plan.

We invite your blog and ask that it posted in full. Trust me, if it’s good enough we’ll be rushing to your site.

There are other bloggers here and they receive plenty of hits but understand the community rules to post in full, their really terrific thoughts.

4th. You may very well have something important to say but zipping through your responses it seems more delusory and divisive or well, down right argumentative.

You can’t even make your case without resorting to shallow and deeply idiotic put downs. Really not becoming of FR but, we let nOObs slide because we realize they don’t yet have very thick skin.

5th and finally, all nOOb’s will get the FNG treatment. It’s part welcoming to the community and part weeding undesirables.

You need to pick a side if you wish to stay:

A. You are part of the community.

B. You don’t really care about the community but, it’s more about you and your business.

Just feel free to pick which one you want to be and we’ll be okay with your choice.
