No, but almost

Overboard from a cruise ship but rescued by a trio of tropical island natives that nursed me back to life.

Took 3 months, but I have been back for a while

Tanned, toned and tenacious

The words “Barf Alert” appended to thread titles.

As a well-educated and quite strong-willed man, I don’t think much of to being told how to think about an article before I read it.

Catholic verses Protestant piety wars.

They bear no good fruit.

Post a disagreement reply but starting out with a qualifier like “I’ve been a conservative since Attila, but...........” “I may get flamed for this but..................”

I must admit that this is the most surprising thing I've seen on FR since I got here a year or so ago.

There are a lot of cranky "religious" fights, pretty much all day every day, that don't really seem all that necessary but since I'm not involved in them maybe I'm missing something?

I like the way FR is set up. It’s hands down, the easier forum to navigate that I’ve run across on the internet.

I do too. Other forums are a pain to try and keep up with IMO.

People who jump on you when you show a poster that the story has been posted 3 times before.

please leave a message at the beep,
I must be out or I’d pick up the phone,
Where could I be?
Believe it or not I’m not home!”

One though that does irritate me is multiple posts of the same story by different people throughout the day ...

"19. People that have been around here since 98 that think they know better than others."

I've been around since February of 98 where as you have only been around since June of 98 therefore I know that I know better than others more than you know you know better than others.
