Favorite FReepers...

Me. | April 9, 2004 | Long Cut

[Long Cut]

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?????????????????

ROFL!

You are on my list of favorites also, Scenic. It's an honor to be on yours, and on Tex's as well. (I started to post a list with you guys on it, but then I decided not to go through with it 'cause I thought some of the people on my list might feel obligated to reciprocate.)

Darn Darn Darn...... I sincerely started out with the intention of reading every post to this thread (of course I was looking to see if I was mentioned.......oh, would help if I'd post more, huh? ). Wow......there's like over a million replies to read. I made it thru about 300. Now I think I could read War and Peace and get thru it quicker. Anyway......just wanted to thank my 'ping leaders' Salem; Alouette; Flyer; Gracey; Little Jeremiah. I need Evelyn Woods speed reading class. ;)

Sigh.....I have no idea why those slash lines are in there. Got some things to learn, I suppose.

[MarMema]

ping to my favorite freepers....thank you for posts which are stunning, show perfect logic and/or deep intelligence, or make me really laugh, and thank you for your personal dedication to integrity and truth.

Gonzo! How are you doing? I haven't seen you around in awhile. Along time ago you gave me advice about something or the other - when I first started posting. I don't remember what it was about, but the kindness you showed in advising a newbie stuck with me.

Thank you.

Ditto, Libertina

Awwwwwwwww, po' lil' bunny, lololol.

You're not a gentleman? Gosh and I always thought you were, tsk, tsk...

[Fledermaus]

I think I'm the "two" of minus two! lol

You'd think I'd get at least more than ONE listing just for coining the term "Belly Girl!" ;-)

Thank you for the kind words, Mr.Atos. :o)

I have FAR too many "favorite FReepers" to name them all here...

...but I would like to put in a plug for my favorite Free Republic CHAPTER,

the "Grand Masters of the FRreep" - and MY mentors:

I guess my favorite freeper is/was the one on the gallows.

Don't get me wrong. I intend to vote for GW but I still wish that more of the base had voiced their displeasure with some of his actions.

Once again, flattery will get you almost everywhere. ;D

[nicmarlo]

Thank you, phenn! And, Happy Easter to you.

[MeekOneGOP]

Well, thanks ! And good mornin' ! ...

[tiamat]

Actually, King, you are on MY list!

Gotta love a guy who can appreciate "Bored of the Rings"!

[nicmarlo]

Thank you sweetliberty.....of course, we're both right on most everything most of the time..... : )

HAPPY EASTER, to one of my fav's!

[nicmarlo]

Thanks meekie, the feeling is mutual!

[veronica]

It's hard to say who are my favs, the list of those who aren't is much, much shorter. ;)

Suffice it to say that everyone on my "ping" list is a fav of mine.

But some folks on that list I would like to mention are dennisw, my super buddy, sjackson, my other super-buddy, johnhuang2, Mr. cool calm and collected, dighton, who is so funny, fiddlstix, who suddenly appears to bump your thread, quidnunc, a friend from way, way back, mad ivan, a jolly good chap and friend to America, my cousin who posts here and turned me on to FR, benf and nachum, catspaw and alouette - the "girls"....and I know there are others I am leaving out....

"(I'd love FNC to have me on -- at least provided I'm not opposite Leo Terrell!)"

I'd turn the TV back on for that match show! Somebody really needs to knock that hot-headed, sour-tongued ninny down to size.
