evila_elfMy turn!!
You Know You're Addicted to LiveJournal When . . . (Bold the ones that apply to you.) Comments in italics
If you can't access the site, you have a minor freak out - and a major case of hitting reload. Heck ya! Normally when that happens it is my computer's fault and I can't access anything
You found yourself composing journal entries during dates, movies, even sex! Well, movies that I am writing a review for I do lol. Also during the day if something interesting happens I jot it down for future typing reference
When you're out, you suddenly think of a witty reply to a comment somebody made to you... several days ago. Normally it is right after I hit the reply button, or if I go back and look at my stupid replies lol
You actually call it LJ and not LiveJournal. When I type, it is LJ, when I talk it is livejournal. Most my RL friends/family don't know what LJ would be lol.
You've downloaded some sort of LJ program which has only the purpose of making entries easier to write without going on the site manually. Lazy people :P Not all that difficult to log into site to update!
You consider it a great offense if someone deletes you off their friends list.
Only happened once, but I was a lurker, so I understand
The first thing you do every day when you go online is check your friends journals - even before checking your email. Does it count that I check my e-mail for LJ replies first? Much easier than trying to see who replied to what while I slept
Your LJ comment email notifications far outnumber your other non-spam email anyway. I get tons of spam. Also depends on how chatty people are. I have gotten more LJ replies than good e-mail stuff several times...I think my record is 15 for comments/replies while I slept.
You actually paid money for a few extra pictures with a full account when you could actually just alternate pics when you want to for your screen icons. hehehe :) I could rotate the pictures, but I wasn't sure if the ones I removed would still show up. Not really that bad a price, compared to somethings, but I did pay extra just to use the icon space, though the creating of polls is kinda nice :)
When your friends ask what's new, you get mad at them because you already wrote it in your LJ and they didn't check it yet. Well, only one friend kinda reads my journal that knows me in RL. I have told her to just read my journal cause I don't want to type out everything that happened in my day. I think it annoyed her lol
You have put more time into LJ than all your assignments for the semester.
Don't have schooling, atm. But I could see me spending more time typing up these entries than any paper that needed writing on
You have more friends on LJ than in real life. Yep. Let's see, RL friends that I talk to regularly...1. I talk to 2 other on an infrequent basis and my 4 co-workers, 3 of which are twice my age at least.
You've met at least 50% of your LJ friends. Only know wolf_cubs, she is the friend I mentioned above. Would be nice to meet some of the rest of yas :)
You can't seem to call your friends by their real names - only LJ names will do. Well, considering I know only 2 of your real names, and ya know what they say about first impressions. Called you by your user names for 3 months, not gonna stop now lol
You've fallen in love with someone you met on LJ. I would hope not, but some of those MEMEs are scary.
You have posted about a party or get together on your LJ... and random strangers showed up. I don't have parties
You are guilty of traveling more than an hour to meet someone with LiveJournal. (Extra points for traveling five hours or more) I don't drive...might be fun to do if I did, though :)
You've written a protected entry about one of your LiveJournal friends. Not yet I haven't
You have written posts to notify people you're going to sleep. I have hopped on to babble a bit 'cause I am bored, then anounce that I am going to bed lol
You talk about your LJ friends to your real life friends all the time... like they're a part of your group. TO my family, I do
You've created a LJ community, and people actually post in it.
You've been recognized in real life by a fellow LJ'er. scary
You have friended someone because of their LiveJournal icon. I've read some people's journal because of their icon.
You have "pity friends" on your list, who you would defriend if you could.
Nope. I do have a few that don't talk much.
You've pimped one of your friends on journal, trying to get people to friend him/her.
Instead of doing research, you post difficult questions on your LiveJournal.
Your pets all have their own LiveJournals. wonder if this questions was thought up from previous experience?
You know, right now, how many people have friended you (without peeking). 13, I think
You've stopped being friends with someone in real life because of something they've said on LJ.
You're guilty of posting sexy or nude pictures to get more people to friend you. o.0
You have consoled yourself after a horrible day by thinking, "At least this will make a great LJ post."
You're jealous of people who have more friends and/or comments than you.
You have written a really great, solid post - only to be disappointed by the lack of good comments. Yeah. Some wierd little stupid thing gets tons of comments, sometimes
You're guilty of commenting excessively to get more traffic to your journal.
You've deleted a post a few minutes (or hours) after you've written it, because it seemed lame in retrospect.
You give shout outs to all your LJ friends on their birthdays. Don't know anyone's BD
You have an additional, secret journal that hardly anyone knows about. That I do. I've thought about creating one recently
You've broken up with someone - or ended a friendship - solely via LiveJournal.
You have gotten mean anonymous comments (bonus points for figuring out who it was via their IP)
You've been reported (or reported someone) to LJ Abuse.
You've been featured on LJ Drama. o.O
You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends who are LJ addicts. duh :P
