Next up in the useless parade of YookSpam are the world famous TV series "Dare To Somalia," "Dare To Upper Volta," Dare To Kryzinitska-Ploonk," "Dare To Swahililand," "Dare To Planet Zorch 16," "Dare To New Guinea While High On Acid and Cocaine," and a slew of other obscure productions no Americans really give a crap about.

Why do you post this crap on this forum?

[Rocco DiPippo]

Awww. Isn't that cute coming from you, an ordained United Methodist Church minister who on this forum and elsewhere has never once condemned the LGBTQYT&^%N destruction of your church but "stepped up" to defend a self-admitted pedophile here on FR.

Retch.

Didn’t her pedophile get the ultimate FR scrub?

God does not approve UMC’s Stance on Same Sex Marriage.

Yep. Scrubbed completely from FR. Hey, check it out - now she's throwing her finger wagging routine at me. Lolol! What's next, the sleepy emoticon and the fake "nighty-night signoff? Her rockpile memes? Maybe a few bible quotes?

Crazy Zeeper entertainment at its best!
