How can I remove unwanted items from the bookmarks dropdown?
At the top of the dropdown list that appears when I click the bookmarks button, there are a few things that I would rather not see. I can delete "Recent Tags" and "Recently Bookmarked", and "Get Bookmark Add-Ons", but the separator bars around those options remain. I cannot delete "Subscribe to This page", "Bookmarks Toolbar" or "Unsorted Bookmarks" -- the 'Delete' option is disabled.
I have a lot of bookmarks, and this is a screen real-estate issue. How can I make these things go away?
[BTW, this is in the *NEW* ultra-configurable Firefox v29]

Presumably you're talking about the Bookmarks button menu (rather than the Bookmarks menu on the menu bar), and you want to display only your bookmarks and bookmark folders. If so,
- Install Stylish and restart Firefox when prompted.
- Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Add-ons.
- In the Add-ons Manager, click User Styles on the left.
- Click the Write New Style button at the top. Paste the following in the text box, give the style a name, then click the Save button.

If you don't want to install an add-on, you can use the userChrome.css file instead, but I don't recommend it.
