ParticipantI like to picture the gas station attendant as an older woman muttering something like “Weeelp, I guess if you boys wanna save yurselves the mo-tel fees tain’t nunna my bidness. Leroy’s the one to hafta clean it, and he keeps on spittin that tabbaccy all over the cee-ment and listening t’ those profanity songs so I reckon he won’t be bothered none.”
Then watches as U-Man. And he waits for the other guy to leave. And waits. Then ends up calling 911, terrified that U-Man tortured, killed and photographed a gay drifter.January 13, 2012 at 8:48 am #43171Plamadude30k
ParticipantYou have a gift for vivid storytelling, staplermofo :).

Participant^ love it. Now I can’t help but imagine that’s EXACTLY the way the scenario played out.

ParticipantSomeone actually created a fake flickr account just to bitch you out about your boobs? HAHAHA!! That’s too much!
*yes*…crazy, no?
Edited to add: I guess it just seemed pretty sad that someone is taking Farktography *that* seriously…
Jealous obviously 😉

ParticipantEls, useless without pictures.
Well, it’s the difference between this (said to be vote whoring on the order to make someone “sick”) http://www.flickr.com/photos/lady_elsinore/6513443987/in/photostream
Someone sounds flat…chested that is! HEY OH!

ParticipantSounds like the script for a Sun Dance award winning short film.

ParticipantI just took the time to read the verbal warfare about votewhoring. What I don’t understand is why anyone who is not participating would care one way or the other what we are entering in our contests. You can see far more body parts’ exposure on TV, the beach, movies, etc. While I tend to have old fashion values, I have never felt uncomfortable with any entry. I may not like it for the photographic value, but never for the content. You did well defending yourself and the rest of the farktography group. Kudos to Elsinore ❗

Opinions are like… everybody has one, as the old saying goes. There was a contest a while back where a non farktographer took the time to post in the contest thread a small whine about us using “fancy titles” and “why don’t we just let the photos speak for themselves” (oddly not long after we had a thread about that same subject here). I think Elsinore and maybe sleeping or somebody had to remind them that they could vote accordingly.
I guess for all we don’t know about voters, this is a form of feedback. Someone is watching and cares. Just not in a way that we necessarily agree with or understand.

The thing I always dislike is the vocal minority. It has a way of getting to you. Say you get a lot of votes for a sub, and your peers all like the image – what you’ll remember is the little voice in the back of the room screaming “OMG what is wrong with you? You’re so stupid!!”
It’s better you either vote, or don’t vote. If you have a criticism, be constructive about it.

This is the dumbest thing I have ever seen in print. I think maybe you’re an idiot.
