poll: should any of us be paranoid about the primitives?

[franksolich]

I'm taking off about midnight, and won't be back for four days.

Another trip north, the direction opposite of northeastern Oklahoma, in case a certain someone is wondering.

Anyway, all day long, I've been watching traffic here, because of a most curious phenomenon.  It's been a slow day for members and comments, but unique "page views" have been way way way out of whack; of course, some of it's bots and crawlers and spiders and whatnot, but a greater some of it has been bona fide ISP (internet service provider) numbers of real people.

A lot of primitives peeking in.

Even more peculiar than that, many of them have been reading franksolich all day long, usually short stories.

In fact, at one point today (Sunday), one-third of everybody here was reading a short story by franksolich, some of those stories being so ancient I forgot I even wrote them.

The primitives are watching franksolich.

Now remember, in the primitive perception, simply reading (and sometimes commenting upon) what another person has written, is "stalking." 

I'm actually flattered that so many are reading things I wrote, but if I thought like a primitive, I'd be scared shitless; these people are stalking me.

It should be an interesting trip this week, a primitive-free vacation.

[I_B_Perky]

Worry about the primitives stalking you in real life? BWAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!  They can't get off their couch to get a job, Frank! I seriously doubt they would expend the energy to stalk you in person. After all... there is weed to be smoked, cheetos to be eaten, and welfare benefits to be applied for. I guarantee that takes all their time.

That certain someone has evaporated into thin air. Nothing in GD, nothing in CB. I'm afraid she may be in neatly wrapped packages on the second shelf of Wild Bill's freezer, beside the butcher's-paper-wrapped portions marked "FedEx".

And with her absence, Cooking and Baking has become as dried up and shrivelled as the hateful old crones who used to inhabit it. DUmmy grasswire stopped in, with a pretentious post about "goat cheese galettes", whatever in hell that is, but not a word on the much-anticipated pie shop/drug emporium.

The only things that need to beware of DUmmies are, cheetos and pot plants.

In early 2001 after skins island opened the doors I was worried that one of those loons was going to attempt to harm President Bush, after I watched them for awhile I realized that most of them are too lazy to walk across the street, much less leave the basement and do anything. You are talking about people who think that scanning pictures of their hands and sending them to tsunami victims was going to make a difference.

Then there was the goon who said that protesting was very important, but it was cold outside, and finals were coming up.

The most damage a DUmmy could do is run you over on their bicycle on the way back from their pot and cheetos run.

 

[DumbAss Tanker]

As individual who might cause harm to one of us physically?  It is to laugh.

The only thing scary about them is that they can vote, and far too many voters are as stupid as those shitferbrains morons.

We're headed to Ambrose, North Dakota; we have to be there by noon tomorrow (Monday).

It'll be an all-nighter of driving, myself handling the steering-wheel from the roof of Nebraska to the roof of South Dakota--about half the distance--after which he takes over, taking us to the roof of North Dakota.  He was busy showing off horses all last week and this weekend, which is why we didn't leave earlier.

Well we could choke on a pretzel or something while laughing at them though.

I think Stinky has a crush on the smoking girl.

[Evil_Conservative]

Maybe, but there are many people who fall into that category.  I shouldn't be worried about a DUmmie though, they probably can't even afford an economy rental car. 

There are about 10-12 places of employment a DUmmie, or anyone, could guess where I work.  I'm not worried about a home visit or stalking in a store or anything like that though.  It's more to do with my job since I am working with the tourists eight hours a day, various days of the week.  At least there are cameras every where.  Guess I shouldn't really worry much.

  Who voted 'yes'?

Stinky the Clown popped in with the mole he claims to have.

I'm planning a trip from here in Wisconsin down to Chicago to visit my sister later this month.  I've decided to park in Tomah, WI and ride the high-speed Amtrak bullet train down to Chicago instead of driving my car which is plastered with anti-Obama bumper stickers--for personal security reasons.  I normally like to be seen out and about in my anti-Obama mobile--being the inspiration for a bouncy is on my bucket list.  But I'd rather not go deep into enemy territory exposed like that.  I wouldn't really be too worried about a confrontation with a Dummie, but there are probably some truly dangerous Obama cultists down there.  And there is the traffic too.    

[Chris_]

Seems like the first half of every WGN 9pm news is a list of people that were shot and/or killed that day.

I have no desire to visit the city that Al Capone built.

[jukin]

IT scares the shit out of me that so many of the DUches are teachers, other than that NO.

[diesel driver]

Godspeed, frank.

We'll see you when you return.

and no, we have nothing to fear from Dummies, other than they vote, and inflict their stupidity on the rest of us.

[DefiantSix]

No. Not really.

The dangerous ones - like O'Bozo and his Ayersian cronies - are like Spike here, and get at least as much effect from posturing as from actually doing anything.

The DUmbshits are like little yap dog Chester, running around Spike's feet, and generally making nuisances of themselves.  They derive any power they have only from being in the presence of Spike.

[BlueStateSaint]

I said "Yes, a little bit," and here's why.  Data mining on this and other sites, much like what's done at the DUmp.  Mind you, the average conservative on these sites is a far sight more aware of what info they put on these sites, but anything's possible.  OPSEC isn't just something for the VRWC.

[Odin's Hand]

I've noticed that the bombastic DUmmies have waned over the years. Sure, you still have Atman/texastoast throwing out the occasional threat to us, but the days of the Ben Burch's stocking up on .32 cal handguns as some sort of "Liberator pistol" and TiT pointing a 12-gauge into the chest of John Warner are long-gone days.

[Karin]

Nope, not at all.  Hope Frank has a good trip. 

The only things that need to beware of DUmmies are, cheetos and pot plants.

Out shopping this weekend with my husband.  He said "Do you want some Cheetos?  They've got them on special."  I said "Oh GOD, NO!"   He didn't quite understand why I was so adamant.

Not bombastic, but grasswire's pie shop could be lethal, if she ever continues that storyline.

[Mr Mannn]

I voted yes, a little bit.
There is an undercurrent of violence at the DUmp. At the moment, they are too incompetent to organize even a protest. But with the right prodding from an outside source looking to agitate violence, DU is full of disposable useful idiots. Give then a pre-made organization, a title, money, drug and beer money...and yes they will leave their basements and hurt/kill people.

The bottom line is to feed the hate, and they will respond.

[dandi]

Generally speaking, no. DUmmies are little more than a collection of cowardly little internet ankle-biters. They are dangerous only as a part of a rock throwing mob, where the crowd provides them with some safe anonymity to shove smaller groups of counter-protestors around and the like.

In, say, a totalitarian Socialist state, however, they'd become more dangerous. They'd be the neighborhood informants, reporting to the state police criticisms of the regime or hoarding or unauthorized radio-listening and the like, obsequiously thanking the jackboots for the extra food credits passed to them after the arrests.

Yes, that last line was a little apocalyptic, I guess. That's just my image of the little rats.

[Mr Mannn]

Hi 5 for being dead on.
