Gakked from
aka_elle Snagged from somewhere....
(Bold the ones that apply to you.)
If you can't access the site, you have a minor freak out - and a major case of hitting reload. (and this happens a lot!)
You found yourself composing journal entries during dates, movies, even sex! (During movies...all the time! Can't watch a movie w/o doing it! Not the others though)
When you're out, you suddenly think of a witty reply to a comment somebody made to you... several days ago. (damn it, yes...but I never post them because it seems too late.)
You actually call it LJ and not LiveJournal. (Who doesn't?)
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.
You consider it a great offense if someone deletes you off their friends list. (You evil bitca!)
The first thing you do every day when you go online is check your friends' journals - even before checking your email. (My email always comes first! - I agree w/aka_elle on this...though the email account I check first is the one whose sole purpose is to accept comments from LJ)
Your LJ comment email notifications far outnumber your other non-spam email, anyway. (Nah...only on the hotmail account. Overall, yahoo groups produce FAR more.)
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.
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. Of course
elizabuffy does the same to me.
You have put more time into LJ than all your assignments for the semester. (Only if you count the fanfic attached to it.)
You have more friends on LJ than in real life.
You've met at least 50% of your LJ friends.
You can't seem to call your friends by their real names - only LJ names will do. (Though I have called EB
elizabuffy in RL)
You've fallen in love with someone you met on LJ.
You have posted about a party or get-together on your LJ... and random strangers showed up. (See..this would imply I HAVE a RL...and that would be the wrong impression)
You are guilty of traveling more than an hour to meet someone with LiveJournal. (EB has LJ, and *waves hi to
lawyergirl15*!)
You've written a protected entry about one of your LiveJournal friends. (Extra points if they eventually found out about it) (Do you actually think I'd bold this if I had? Sheesh)
You have written posts to notify people you're going to sleep. (Damn...do comments count?)
You talk about your LJ friends to your real life friends all the time... like they're a part of your group. (Of course it's always edited)
You've created an LJ community, and people actually post in it.
You've been recognized in real life by a fellow LJ'er.
You have friended someone because of their LiveJournal icon.
You have "pity friends" on your list, whom you would defriend if you could.
You've pimped one of your friends on journal, trying to get people to friend him/her. (See my very first post ever)
Instead of doing research, you post difficult questions on your LiveJournal. (oh! I should try that!)
Your pets all have their own LiveJournals.
You know, right now, how many people have friended you (without peeking). 26!
You've stopped being friends with someone in real life because of something they've said on LJ. (Or more accurately because they refused to comment back to my comment)
You're guilty of posting sexy or nude pictures to get more people to friend you. (does it count if they're of other people?)
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. (Am I ever!)
You have written a really great, solid post - only to be disappointed by the lack of good comments. (Yep...)
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.
You have an additional, secret journal that hardly anyone knows about.
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.
You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends who are LJ addicts.
