Why can't Freepers come up with any original ideas?
Edited on Thu Nov-11-04 04:54 PM by SemiCharmedQuark
They stole our "I voted" avatar
They make a "Conservative Underground" (shitty site by the way...Why can't they make good websites either)
They took one Du'ers idea to get info and copied it.
Werenotsorry.com (Thanks to Goldmund)
Watch out...I bet they'll soon come out with a leader called Skinner2 or Skanner Or Llad.

Not only do they copy, they do a piss poor job of it too.

5. It's hard to be original when you spend all day wishing it as 1953.

6. You forgot to mention the "notsorry" website.
Because their thinking is derivative.

9. Thinking out of the box isn't encouraged in such an insular group
I find this applies to fundamentalists of all sorts. All their discussion is just regurgitating ideas heard from the right-wing hate machine and praising each other for their 'patriotism' or 'piety'. It's a circle jerk! :puke:

23. If you watch faux...
you can derive the talking points of the day, because that is all anyone, on any panel, ever says -- regardless of what they are talking about. And without even checking, you can usually then derive the content of rush and drudge. How can they stand it?! I would impale myself with the first sharp object within reach.

15. The idiots have the mind of a four year old kid
and the four year old is happy to be rid of it.

Original thought and all that, is alien to them.

They started fantasizing about Dick Cheney's penis.

19. Some good quotes regarding Cheney's "assets"
<i>now we know why terayza always seems so pissed off--John just doesn't have anything to offer her. ;}

Lynn, on the other hand, seems to be a very happy woman...

No wonder his heart is wonky. Pumping that amount of blood on short notice can't be easy.

LOL, all Republican guys are built like that. :^) </i>

20. Is it hard to believe?
They're not innovative, they're just indoctrinated automatons.

Even that picture of Chirst crying for 'marxism' (http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x2672838) was swiped from an idea by someone from www.sorryeverybody.com

25. It's part of the right wing method
they create a (loosely) equal and opposite of any kind of movement, in order to neutralize any media impact that it might have.

So there's your answer.

30. I'll be nice and just say
they're a bunch of stinking brain-dead soulless cowardly dumbfucks who enjoy smelling their fingers after they scratch their collective asses.

They wouldn't know an original idea if it ran them over and left them as the roadkill they aspire to one day become.

Another case in point: the idiots who copied Ben and Jerry's ice cream with such flavors as Iraqi Road and I Hate the French Vanilla...
