Tuesday night.


Two of my accounts got discovered... and I can't post under those now.


But I still have one left.

1. yeah, I guess I'll have to admit I have two different accounts there
and I post regularly: they have no clue at all. They'll never find me out, I"m too good at pretending to be a whackjob batshit crazy freeper.

they can get paranoid and start attacking each other all day in an attempt to ferret me out, but I'll never get found out.

:evilgrin:

3. Could be
I have a fake account, too. And it's not a new account, either, so when I start yammering about how McCain has failed us along about Sunday night, it will look like the old-timers are bailing.

It's so much fun.

4. You know what would be funny?
If 3/4 of the people on FR are just DUers pretending to be freepers. :rofl:

8. This may be true. They're all fake-arguing with people who are fake-arguing.

10. "The Man Who Was Thursday"
I am going to give away the big sort-of secret in this book, because I believe that it is a.) crucial to explaining the plot, and b.) quite obvious, quite early.

The Man Who Was Thursday is about a man named Gabriel Syme, who is a poet recruited by the London police into an undercover unit designed to combat intellectual threats to the government, specifically "anarchists," by which Chesterton means not quite what we would mean, but a wide-ranging group of intellectuals whose ideologies are closest to nihilism. Through Syme's cleverness, he successfully masquerades as an anarchist and is elected to the worldwide council of anarchists, of which there are seven, each named after a day of the week. Syme is Thursday, and the group is led by the intimidating and mysterious Sunday. If you think the fact that anarchists have an organization is funny, well, that's the sort of humor you're getting with this book.

Thing is, as the book develops, you find out one by one that all six of the "Sabbatarians," excluding Sunday, are policemen in the same unit tracking each other.

6. What's funny is the FReepers who are doing the McCarthy routine on all 'new' accounts.
I lurk over there as well, and pretty much anyone who has registered this year and voices the slightest amount of despair over McCain's shoddy campaign, their prospects on Tuesday, etc...gets ripped hard from multiple directions.

So not only is FReeperland in hysterics over infiltrators, they are quite likely hitting a lot of genuine new users as well, driving them off in disgust in the process.

A win-win for us. :toast:

7. It is great fun to accuse random Freepers on FR of being
closet Liberals. It makes them all crazy and even more paranoid. It is also fun to use a well known Freeper handle on other sites and post about how you support gun control, right to choose etc.

just for fun.

12. Maybe there are no real freepers anymore
That is so funny. There was a Democrat here who used to write letters to the editor with fake names and back himself up and stuff. It was funny.

13. I wonder about that
Wouldn't if be funny if fake DU'ers actually outnumber real freepers?

Hey lurking freepers, you guys need to have a serious purge over there! Trust no one!

15. That's a great idea... LOL
I have 2 accounts on Hannity. I can't deal with FR.. the board makes my head hurt.. at least Hannity looks like a normal message board.

One account was found out and banned (for no reason)... but the other 2 are still very stealth. ;)

17. That can't be good for one's mental health.
I couldn't summon the masochism to read their crap. I certainly couldn't do it long enough to support two competing online persona. And I most certainly wouldn't call it "fun".

14. Reminds me of the Star Trek TOS episode "Mirror, Mirror"
It's much easier for civilized DU'ers to act like the barbarians inhabiting the Freeper alternate universe than it is for the barbarian Freepers to act like civilized DU'ers in DU'er universe.

But DO tell us what they're saying. :evilgrin:

23. All the better for us to mess with their little heads.
Now if only I could remember the login name I registered with there.
