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.

What always makes me laugh about these people are that half of the people they add are deeply offended by it. Like suddenly they never realised anyone could add them and read what they write. As if the whole friends feature is taking liberties and should be banned.

I thought hideous penguin boy was funny in a twisted sort of way.

On the other hand being added to communities cheeses me off. Go figure.

I think most folks don't want to ba associated with him because of his interest list. This seems to happen every so often... some monkey just adds a zillion people, usually in the hopes that they'll get at least a half-zillion reciprocal adds.

Many people don't understand that the nature of LJ is that you can read other folk's public entries. I've wanted to shake off the dead wood (long abandoned journals) off of my list, just so I can see who's really alive.

I'm cautious about adding people, and read several people that I haven't added, like people with huge lists of friends already. I do try to let people know if I'm lurking. The friends thing is for convenience, but if someone's writing is exceptional, I'll take the time to look them up! If someone objected to being read/commented on, I'd certainly stop.
As far as the "interests" list goes, some people sincerely try to list their interests, some try to seem to be something they're not, and some just have fun with it. You can't take that seriously.
I checked out the two names you listed--sure sounds like the same writing. Probably lots of people would enjoy it, but he should just join a couple of writing communities and let people find HIM, since it seems to be freaking people out.
