Since I was one of the 20 posters who you are calling rude names I will respond. The person asking the question has been here 3 years and surely the question was not asked in a serious manner but rather as an excuse to start a thread that all could have fun with.
I think you are taking things a little too seriously and you need to lighten up. After all tomorrow is the day we are going to be hit by the asteroid and life as we know it will be over.
Everyone, carry on, back to making jokes and having fun, it is our last chance.

One of the best assets of this site is that it teaches us ALL to think before we post—and that especially applies to vanities.
Since experience is the best teacher, many of us have to go through this hazing ritual. Sometimes it happens in-thread and other times it gets a thread all it's own.
The result is that you learn to do your own research into the matter, freepmail a trusted fellow freeper so as to not embarrass yourself publicly, or do it again causing yourself to wonder how you forgot the last time you did something stupid.
Don't take it so hard. Stand back and observe for a while (I actually lurked for seven years before I jumped in) and you learn a lot about the personal politics of the site. That said, it doesn't prevent me from doing stupid things now and again...and having to stand up and take the consequences like an adult.
I'm sure that maineman will be just fine.

I think your duck hunting friends have misled you in the meaning of a circle jerk. If they ever ask you if you want to be a part of a circle jerk you should run away very fast. A cycle jerk I guess is a motorcycle rider who cuts in and out of traffic.

It took 20 JERKS and @$$holes to critize the writer for asking a question. Finally the 21st person to respond treats that question with a dignified response with definations. Is this the type of people we want on FreeRepublic? (The first 20 that responded. NO. We want the 21st person that responded in a kindly, informative and nonjudgemental manner. THANK YOU (Fortyseven)..............You must be new here.

Is this the type of people we want on FreeRepublic? Better than a quarter of them are on the donor rolls with atleast one Dollar-A-Day freeper. I guess we should kick them out.
Didn't see your name in the "money-where-your-mouth-is" column, hoss.

Bummer, I've got a couple hundred hours of leave acrued thats gonna go up in smoke.

Hey, I don't know what a NUMP is either... and I try to stay current on all the latest social pathologies here... right Woofie? know you both do. But this is a Red Alert. The Freepathon thread is where this unfortunate term originated.(you do know about that shameless beg for $$ to keep the lights on?)
Well this NUMP has broken out from that thread and is now getting all over the board. Needs a bud nipping, imo.
I am doing my best but could use some help.
