Mildly Amused

Who is green_tree, and why has his odd behavior provoked such outrage? Is he, in actuality, the Hideous Penguin Boy? The LJ drama continues. Stay tuned for the next inevitable installment.

There seem to be a lot of people who want some sort of system whereby they can prevent people from adding them to their friends list without permission. Some of them have made that request in the poll in the latest Paidmembers post. It seems remarkably silly, since those same unwanted people could still read all their public entries. Ah, well. I guess it just wouldn't be LJ without a certain amount of paranoid melodrama.

yeah, i went last night to see who this was who had added me and couldn't believe the hysterical tone of the people demanding he take them off his list. i never saw anything like that. now i'll go look to see if the penguin boy you link to is the one with the icon of a guy with horrible snakes or something coming out of his eyesockets. i've seen that icon around and can't look straight at it.

Yup, penguinboy is the guy with the weird icon. Or the especially weird icon, since a lot of LJ icons are weird. His posts are even more weird. I sort of like them, but not enough to add him to my already jam-packed (for me) friends page.

I have tons of idiots add me, mainly because they don't understand the whole friends feature and just think it's a place to put names, kinda like interests.

It would be nice sometimes to remove all those people, but only in order to make my user info page look tidy again, (I have friends of hidden at the moment, although it's freely available through the directory). I guess I'm just a clean freak.
