Thing the millionth and third of weird me things

[wanderlustlover]

About friending -- no, this isn't one of those messages where I tell you I'm making a cut or etc, etc, etc -- as it's caught me during the last month or so that my pursuing of other peoples journal follows a strange and silly pattern. And really this follows for anyone. The people I find on random. The people who lj comments says have friended me.

I am the person who chooses to receive the update every time someone on my flist gets new icons uploaded

You must really, really hate me these last few weeks. ;)

[wanderlustlover]

Nope *laughs* I love it. I smile and get to look at hot Sylar pictures. It's rather more endearing than annoying for everyone who's pictures I follow.

You have found some rather amazing ones of him, by the way.

Fair enough...

That's actually a lot how I handle friending on my personal journal - I like to see what makes a person (as far as livejournal can tell us). I guess with my fannish stuff, I just look to make sure they're the type of person I would want to get to know - not hateful or in love with drama.

(I love Lee.)

I, like you, love fandoms and not drama. *laugh* It's always interesting to see where people's interest lie and how a show is going through people.

I skip your interests...

Does this mean you don't read the interests lists?

I look for original interests. This may be because my close friends and I often have a huge number of them, ourselves.

I, too, spend a lot of time on icons and communities, though.
Personally, someone gets bonus points with me if they actually have icons of themselves, and if they have a lot of them they made themselves, from their own photos or from something more original than stock images.

[wanderlustlover]

That?

Makes me want to go look at my few pictures of myself and figure out how to make icons of them.

*smirks*

[nalidoll]

You totally should. Heh. I like seeing people's faces.

Sometimes, when I am taking photos of myself and/or others, I will actually think "well, if nothing else, at least I'll probably get an icon or two out of this."

and figure out how to make icons of them.

Creative cropping is your friend.

wow, good thing I know you both in person, I doubt either of you would have friended me, otherwise :-p

That's actually really thoughtful. It was a little weird, but you'd friended me and I don't get notices, so I was looking over my profile and thought "I wonder what their like". So I browsed around a bit and liked your way with words and friended you back.
