seldear | the f-list meme

I'm sorry. I was going to go back through and comment on everyone's LJ, but got as far as

tv_elf's LJ and just couldn't do anything without rewriting the same-old same-old stuff. Although I did have some fun with

allisnow. *g*

Basically, if you're on my f-list, most of the time, I don't remember why I friended you. It was way back in the distant past and ages old. However, the reason you've survived the occasional purges of my f-list is because I like you and/or what you have to say. Pick whichever one is more acceptable. Or both. Both is an option, too. Some of you I've met in person, and some of you will never be more than names on a page.

It all adds up.

In one sense, I have you friended because you have me friended back, which suggests that you actually like me or what I have to say. Or possibly my stories. And given how good I am used to be at making enemies/getting into fights/ending up mocked by teh snobocracy/opinionating, that says quite a lot about your character. (And possibly your ability to withstand all the bitchkriegs on my part.)

I suppose that, in the end, if I can't quantify why I have you friended, I do know that it would be unacceptable to lose what you bring to the mosh pit of my LJ experience.

~~But mostly, I'm too scared to delete you!~~

Yes, I know, I can't even be serious about this, can I?

Now, please excuse me. I have a weekend to work.
