(no subject)
I have noticed (not recently) that most Livejournal entries are either:
- depressing, usually at night (guilty of that)
- memes (guilty of that, but not recently)
- political speeches (yeah, not doing that ever again.)
- gushing about hooking up with someone (guilty of that when I was 18)
- the inevitable break-up that leads back to depressing entries (possibly guilty. I forget.)
- the most nerdy goddamn shit ever written (almost every damn entry I write)
Or the one I hate the most: really cryptic entries that may or may not have comments disabled. If comments are enabled, it takes some work to pry any explanation worth a damn out. (I'm not sure if I did that ever. If I did, my bad.)
Thinking about it, you could probably make something out of these common entries for fame and comedy and use all of them at once for the best thing Livejournal could ever produce in this day and age where so many people use either Facebook or Twitter and only use Livejournal if they are roleplaying, hosting images, or writing an entry too big for 140 characters.
Shit, even I use Twitter more than Livejournal and I'm usually one or two technological fads behind everyone else. And even then, I am only following 6 people and locked my entries because I got so sick of bots or random people that I have nothing in common with wanting to follow me because I said one word relevant to their interests. At least the need to have the most friends that will never give a crap about what you say is the same no matter what social networking site you use.
