hmm

Yesterday I was thisclose to filling out two different friending memes until I remembered that I don't even really know like half of my flist already. I'll see a post by a few someones and think, 'Who are you?' And then I feel all bad and other sorts of words. And I think that I should defriend this person (a few people on my flist have recently defriended a large amount of people and I admire that) because hey, they've been here for who knows how long and I still don't recognize them but I don't because what if they're amazing and have great insight and change my life with their next post?

... There was no point to this. I don't think there was a point to this. But hey, if you're skimming this and thinking, 'Who who the hell are you?' you can defriend me. Seriously.

I almost did one of those anon/honesty memes cuz I saw you had the balls to do TWO of them.

Then I thought, who the hell is she? And changed my mind. *snorts* I just teasin' ya. Honestly, you have fucking balls.

I think I've only done one friending meme, right at the beginning. I dunno, man. I'm trying to pare down my flist. How the hell people deal with hundreds of flisters is beyond me, because I'm ALWAYS behind on shit. And then there's guilt. Don't you feel the guilt? lol.

Ahahahahaha.

Maybe half a ball, if I had balls I'd link to them in my journal but I is too chicken for that. Maybe the next time 'round.

Heh, I always feel the guilt.

Then you've got one giant, steel, half-ball.

Oh, mental image, no. No, no. :/

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahahaha. Sounds like it'd leave a bruise.

[identity profile] fromyourashes.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 09:24 pm (UTC)(link)
...in his mouth?

SERIOUSLY, WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME TODAY, OMG, YOU SHOULD SEE MY MSN CONVERSATIONS.

I think I'll just go...cook, or something.

Today? TODAY? Have you met yourself? :p

[identity profile] fromyourashes.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 09:28 pm (UTC)(link)
*snorts* I'm more ME than usual. Wiseass. Heh. Bruising balls in the mouth. I'll never porn again. :(

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
But but it could turn into a kink fic. There could be a bruised mouth and then a tongue (uh, belonging to another person) pressing on the bruise and and then I dunno.

The last friending meme I did was about month ago but that one I've done like in a year, I think.

I would never defriend you, you make my day with your awesomeness. :D

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I used to do them all the time, I had like an addiction to them but I've learned to keep my fingers away and sometimes it's real hard but yeah.

\o/ Thank you

I know the feeling.

Hi, my name's Malcolm. I like long walks on the beach, conjugating Latin verbs, and cooking. My hobbies include napping, procrastination, and napping. My idea of a perfect day is January 29th, because that's my birthday and therefore always awesome.

Are we super-tight friends now?

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahahaha. Uhm ... Well. Maybe?

[identity profile] malcolm-stjay.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. I'm glad we got this sorted out.

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
As am I

I need to not to friending memes too I have the same problem as you I have some people who I just dont know
I know you know me, or at least you know I *love* Bush :p

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I bet you write letters to John Howard telling him that you love Bush more than he does.

I often think 'who are you' as well, but I've figured out that's because half my comments come from people who are not on my flist. I seem to have an alarmingly high number of lurkers that don't even have me friended. It's very curious. Then there are the lurkers that do have me friended, but they never say anything.

I do agree with you on the whole but what if they change my life with their next post thing. *g* I keep kicking people off my reading filter only to take them back like five seconds later. I am fickle.

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Lurkers are a curious bunch. *nods*

...what if they're amazing and have great insight and change my life with their next post?

Well, yes, they might, but I don't think you should feel guilty if you want to defriend people. I'm pretty sure you sort of know me, but I wouldn't slit my wrists if you decided to defriend me. I'd just... sit in a corner and cry.

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
:p

I'm not planning on defriending anyone in the near future and if I ever do, you're not going.

[identity profile] evenindeath.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I wish I had that problem. I only don't know most of my flist 'cause I'm lazy XD

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahahaha. Well, there is that too.

[identity profile] jenniferkaos.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah, I've had you on my flist for a while but I'm not sure if you even know me that well. But I can't defriend you cuz I love reading your posts. :)

[identity profile] insaneboingo.livejournal.com 2008-09-25 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
We should get to know each other better, I should really get around tot hat into post I've been talking about. Hah.

[identity profile] muses-circle.livejournal.com 2008-09-26 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
Pointless posts rock. And I feel your pain, because my flist is way out of control.

[identity profile] cityphonelines.livejournal.com 2008-09-26 12:30 am (UTC)(link)
I'm in awe of people with large flists. I start getting twitchy when I get over 75-80 people friended. Which means I probably miss a lot of cool info, but... *shrug*

[identity profile] openmydoors.livejournal.com 2008-09-26 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
I tend to recognize people by their icons, which is really not a good tell because they change ALL THE TIME. I mean, mine change pretty much monthly-ish so I guess I'm most recognized by the icon I'm using right here...

And you? How can I defriend you? You make the most awesome icons and random manips evar, not to mention all the SANDYLOVE you pour out in eljayland. Also, it's kind of hard to forget a name like smidgy. <3

[identity profile] loki-dip.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
*shrugs* I guess the way I do it is to trim out people I don't know every six months or so. There's very few people on my flist I'm not good friends with these days. It's nicer that way.

But then I keep my flist below a hundred most of the time. So it's easier to make that effort.

No need to feel guilty about defriending though.

Man, what is it with friending memes? They like suck you right in and you fill it out and make yourself sound all witty and awesome and then you post the comment think CRAP, WHAT HAVE I DONE!? lol

Oh, and I'm thinking. "My Ipod needs to die in a fire and I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!! XD"

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2008-09-29 02:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Them friending memes are so very addictive. It's unfair.

And wow, that last sentence took me awhile to get. I'm blaming it on I just woke up a little while ago and am still half asleep.
