6. Netflix, eh?
Blockbuster Online is better. Google "Netflix throttling" and you'll see why. Plus, Blockbuster gives you two free in-store renatls per month.

8. Dorm, eh?
I'm glad that I don't live in a dorm anymore. Too many rules for my taste. Where do you go to school, just out of curiousity?

10. LSU.
And there are plenty of rules, no doubt. Doesn't mean I follow them though.

7. 1:22 AM MST in Arizona with a question for you all
Does FreeRepublic.com have that amateurish look or is it just me?

It looks like they put NO effort into updating or upkeep.

9. It's been extra-amateur crispy since day one...
You'd think that with as much traffic as they get, they'd have invested in a superior DU-esque interface. Maybe that's why freep posts always sound so stupid... They're depleted by the rigors of navigating FreeRepublic.

14. They are conditioned to the crappy layout...
just like they are conditioned to support everything this administration serves up.
I read a post over there when one of the morans opined that they couldn't follow
DU, because "It's such a mess over there".

:crazy:

20. "depleted by the rigors of navigating FreeRepublic !!" LMAO!!!
:rofl:

Damn that was funny! Anytime in the last four years that I've ever had the slightest wavering about my liberal values, I've gone to FreeRepublic and the doubts just vanish! I could not live on a planet that was solely populated by people with that kind of disregard for asthetics. Poor fuckers.

12. I'm up but the "about" part is too deep, almost existential.
Edited on Fri Nov-04-05 03:35 AM by autorank
:freak: damn, that's me up for another 2 f'ing hours.

What does he mean by "about". Isn't being up enough.

What if I'm up and not about, is that bad?

Am I offending someone by simply being up?

Up...Up with People...but they're all on the internet.

They may be "bots"...!..."Up and about with bots."

Night! :hi:

16. Insomniac checking in
I woke up about 1 AM. I like the late night crowd here. Some of the daytime folks take themselves too seriously.

17. Up early
Up listening to the Malloy Show downloaded from Whiterosesociety.org.
I do this most weekdays - get my Malloy fix before going off to work. Don't have to be at the "mines" until 8am and its only a 48 minute subway ride away.


"We deal in illusions, man. None of it is true. But you people sit there day after day, night after night, all ages, colors, creeds. We're all you know. You're beginning to believe the illusions we're spinning here. You're beginning to think that the tube is reality and that your own lives are unreal. You do whatever the tube tells you. You dress like the tube. You eat like the tube. You even think like the tube. In God's name, you people are the real thing, WE are the illusion." Howard Beale

18. It's not even 1 am in California. . .
It's the coolest thing about this state: We get to sleep three hours longer each day than you do on the East coast. Get to stay up later, too.
