That’s as close as I can find, at the moment.
Here, I can feel safer generalizing: a signifcant number of people who come here are generally looking for us specifically. An appreciable number of them are looking for Freddie.Report
I also think I may be skewing things this past week or two.Report
Certainly you’re the reason the porn people were led here. You perv.Report
Dude, I am the “porn people.”Report
Usually i need a roll of singles to get somebody to publicly say i’m cheeky. ( insert rimshot)
I would have thought Balko or Reason.com would be pulling their weight.Report
Reason.com doesn’t register high on the entire quarter.Report
Does Radley link to here? I had no idea.Report
20 searches. For my ownself. That’s slightly embarrassing.

Dude, the correct response is: “20 searches for me? Damn it, it looks like that restraining order on Megan Fox isn’t working.”Report
Full point!Report
I think we need to work a little harder on boosting our “i hate politics” hits.Report
Wow, I’m surprised that there are that many hits from MetaFilter since there’s only one FPP from 2009 and about 14 references in comments, all from 2010 or earlier.Report
Actually, over the past 30 days the good people at Metafilter sent a substantial 4,737 readers to the League. They’re the second largest referrer in that period, second only to Reddit.Report
site:ordinary-gentlemen.com “densityduck” should be on there a lot more. That’s my <i>ad hoc</i> thread-subscription system.Report
Who is Freddie?Report
