Freeps Marvel At * Holding A Pumpkin
Edited on Sat Oct-28-06 11:55 PM by K8-EEE
OMG....my favorite comment to this stupid looking pose was that * is sooooo strong and macho to be holding it up with one hand, that he's "as strong physically as he is morally!"

:puke:

I really think we're down to the 20% wackiest people in the US when we talk about who the remaining *-worshippers are!

15. want to know something really depressing - FR gets more traffic than DU
dunno how they do it (linking from porn on YouTube or something) but their traffic has been falling steadily for months.

http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?compare_sites=freerepublic.com&range=2y&size=medium&y=r&url=democraticunderground.com">comparative stats for DU (blue) & FR (red)

it's weird that such a troglodytes den generates such so much interest. I NEVER link to them and always right-click/copy link then paste in the address bar. I refuse to give them the web traffic.

23. No they don't
What you're seeing is skewed results. Many FR members have Alexa software, a spyware program, installed on their computers. It is the Alexa that tracks the traffic and makes it seem like FR is getting so much more traffic when it's really only tracking people who have the spyware on their computers. So basically FR has more people with Alexa spyware on their computers, not more traffic.

33. alexa statistics are really really rough estimates
that are heavly weighted towards anyone running alexa toolbar who goes to the site.

4. i really don't understand the mind set of these people, i really don't
i've tried but i just picture them sitting at their Dell's wearing clothing made in the marianas with flag motifs and scattered about their mothers homes where they occupy the basement level i see pictures of Jesus right alongside pictures of Bush. I can see them now, voting on their social issues instead of voting for their own economic interests, the same economic issues that keep there in their mother's basement.

14. It certainly looks like the Rovester
I was also just thinking-since this pic is supposed to be about Halloween-why wouldn't the Freeps be up in arms? Every year I would get an anonymous pamphlet on my desk at work about the devil's holiday secretly supported by the voodoo-loving Catholic church. Strangely, I couldn't care less about Halloween once I reached adulthood and never had a conversation about being pro or anti-Halloween, but I was the only person ever to get these lovely rants.

Keeps bumping the thread hoping somebody will give a flying fuck about Bush holding a pumpkin.

12. "a little add-on of the pumpkin vendor and the President dickering over price."
?x=380&y=248&sig=kZk7Pc1Vp77DDNVFyDIe_g--

The freeper is PROUD that the monkey actually dickered over the price of the pumpkin? Goddamn cheapskate.

And to that, all I can say is, "Maybe so, but it's quite unfortunate for the orange vegetable."

18. Yeah, it loved having its stem wrenched off by a clumsy chimp.

He treated that pumpkin like he treats the Constitution, good for a photo op but dispensable.

They go way beyond supporting Bush, they worship him. Some of them seem to enjoy looking at pictures of him a little too much.
