sherryillkI really have nothing to say but I feel as though I need to post an obligatory welcoming in the new year post.
Except I really have nothing to say.
I've been home a week and I haven't posted in a week. I feel absolutely out of touch with everything and everyone online. I hate this feeling. :\ Half the time my siblings are hogging the internet connection and I can't even get out a letter to Masha! To think I would be missing turns when I have FREE TIME. That's so wrong. :\
Ah, something pissed me off today that I broke my vow about not clustering. I don't know if people know this but I avoid clustering on LJ and by clustering I mean joining a group of people who've decided to surround one user with their undivided, unwavering support when something bad has been done to them by another. Offering support in such a way is awfully subjective (who is right? how do we know who is right?) so I try to limit my clustering to unavoidable acts of nature like family members who are gravely ill and hospitalized or car accidents and the like.
But today I was pissed off. How the hell could someone blatantly attack another person, a very well known person (almost a BNF in my book) on a public forum?! Stupid! Not to mention not based in truth! I wanted to grab that person by the neck and throttle them -- seriously HOW STUPID CAN YOU BE?!
If you want to rant, do it somewhere else. I'm sure if you look hard enough you'd find people with similar beliefs (there are always some people like lurking around unfortunately). But to do so on a public forum... *shakes head* Who is attention seeking now? If that person had any foresight, they would have realized that they would have been pushed into a little corner by all of the people clustering over the other person and something nasty would have happened. It's happened before and it will happen again. Who the hell wants a flame war erupting on their flist?
*shakes head* Stupid, stupid, stupid. The sheer stupidity of that poster made me a clusterer. But I don't care. They deserve it for having such a lack of foresight.
On a somewhat unrelated note, I was glad that it wasn't me. When the word "anonymous poster" came up, I had a faint heart attack wondering if it was me. :\ I had accidently posted anonymously the day before because my sister now uses LJ and she logs me out every single time she goes on and I haven't been able remember that I must log back in if I don't want to post anonymously or if I don't want to post as her. I've once posted on her journal before... That was stupid too.
Okay, not much to say now. SC has released two chapters of Yakitate and I'm getting them and I'm going to make Japan 2 today! We'll see how it goes, ne?
Now I'm off to eat a very late lunch. Congee, yummy!
