Wouldn't it be great if one could just friend a single tag on someone's journal? Like, say I'm interested in a given person's periodic Battlestar Galactica ramblings/fic but don't really care about their twenty Supernatural posts a day (not talking about anyone here, this is a completely hypothetical situation); provided they tagged the respective ( Read more... )

Actually, you can track a certain tag on someone's LJ and be notified when they tag an entry with it, which would do more or less what you want. :)

(This has been Helpful LJ Hints with Melle!)

Oooh, neat-o! I so didn't realize that. Thanks, Informative Melle! :D

Apropos of absolutely nothing, have you ever realized the playing cards in the BSG universe look a lot like the Tarot cards in Dune?

(I am so not interesting when I'm half-awake.)

...I had not, and that's really kind of neat. And kind of apropos for me, actually, because I finally got around to buying Children of Dune, and it arrived yesterday and I've been meaning to watch it. :D

WERD to the whole first paragraph. if I could filter myself out of every single Lost and reality TV show post on my flist, I'd be in lj heaven.

we don't have Starbucks here, but when I'm in Sydney I always go to Starbucks because I hate the other major coffee chain, Gloria Jeans (I worked there as a barista for a year - long story, lots of yelling and groups of schoolkids bugging me, slowly going insane, etc). and Starbucks? STARSUCKS. yeah. every single effing time I've been there, I've been given the wrong order and had to basically start again from the beginning of the line because they won't do anything about it if you just hand it back to the barista.

I guess it's either that or pay $5 for a hot chocolate from a regular cafe. siiigh.

Amen, sistah.

ahaha. I live in the city of a billion Starbucks (we even have, no joke, a major intersection downtown where two of the four corners are occupied by Starbucks), and when I was in high school I actually worked for two years at this particular store I now go to. Anyway, this means I know exactly what I want, exactly how to order my drink, and so on - and yet I'd estimate they still screw it up about a third of the time. The good news is, around here at least, if you tell the barista they're almost always really good about remaking it for you, so it's not such an ordeal. Still, it is kind of ridiculous, and if there's a better alternative nearby with hotter baristas I usually go there.
