One of my favorites

What did we all do before Free Republic? Well, it might surprise you to know there never was a time before Free Republic. And as good as the forum is now, it was much then.

(you do know about that shameless beg for $$ to keep the lights on?)

Yep, I became a Dollar-A-Day FReeper a couple years ago in hopes on never seeing the smiling goat picture again.

So off I go to wade through 1000 posts just to satisfy my curiosity...

I AGREE!!! AND ALSO, WE SHOULD ZOT ALL PEOPLE WHO POST IN CAPS TOO. AND WHO YELL AND USE WRONG PUNCTUATION AND SENTENCE STRUCTURE. THEY ARE JERKS AND A$$holes. AND AS WELL, DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON PEOPLE WHO FORMAT ARTICLES WRONG, PLUS ALSO MISSPELL WORDS TOO.

The Freepathon thread is where this unfortunate term originated

Nope. It was started somewhere else, I believe, and brought over there...
