Once again, FRIENDS ONLY!!!
If you want to add me as a friend...
1. I must be able to view your journal and / or information page. How fair is it for you to see all of my interests, but I'm not able to see any of yours? How can I know for certain that we would have any kind of common interests?
2. We must share several major things in common. And I'm not talking about the color of our journal page or the fact that we both like certain movies or musicians. Hey, even shit heads can be fans of Helmet. What I'm talking about is both of us being into the same scene or sharing the same political or religious views...major things. If we don't, I won't necessarily discriminate, but I won't make any promises either.
3. We must be roughly the same age. I'm sorry, I don't accept friend requests from people under the age of 21 or over the age of 31, and this rule is subject to change as my age continues to change. Well, actually I have...these people I know in real life and have been placed on my friends list thanks to some waivers. They're also people I'm either related to or have known for several years. But that's beside the point, I don't want any jail bait teeny boppers or creepy old people as my friends. Now, go ahead and call me a bitch and tell me how stuck up and narrow minded I am...I dare ya!
4. Don't assume that because I know you in person that I'll automatically grant your request. There is a method to my madness, and that is I may not remember who you are or I may just not like your dumb ass. Who knows, it could very well be both! Just because I have to deal with you offline doesn't mean I want to deal with you online. At least on my profile page, I have control over who I choose to have contact with. Generally I'm not such a hard ass over it, but there have been some people that swore they knew me in high school and I had forgotten who they were, or I didn't like them back in high school and I refuse to pretend to like them now. It's that simple.
5. Absolutely NO FRIEND WHORES!! Trust me, I can tell who you are once I see your profile. Nobody knows 8546 people, and the only people I'll approve with that many friends are communities I want to join. If you're not a community moderator, than you don't need 96645 friends and I refuse to enable your severe lack of self-esteem--you don't need LiveJournal, you need a therapist.
6. Other miscellanious items:
-- I won't keep anyone on my friends list who likes to post a bazillion worthless memes. If I start to notice a pattern, I de-friend you. I prefer real people with real substance. The occasional meme is fine; I'm guilty of it myself.
-- PeOpLe WhO tYpE lIkE tHiS nEeD nOt ApPlY.
-- Peeps who tawlk lyke dis an think dis shit iz jes kewl...take a fuckin' hyke!
-- People who seem like they just fell off the back of a truck...and this does mean stupid people.
Now, if I haven't scared you off by this point or you're still so hellbent on making sure you have me on your friends list, then leave me a comment requesting that I add you and I will consider it. Otherwise, thanks for checking out my page and have a nice day!
