Answering symetric's questions out of order

6. if someone randomly came up to you and gave you a hug, how would you react?
7. why is LJ your social media tool of choice? if it isn't, which do you prefer using?
9. MARMITE? (shut up, that is a valid question)

6. O_O Unless they're a close family member or a good friend. Total stranger: only if it's a woman who recognizes the character I cosplay at an anime convention. "Guu~! I love youuu!"

7. I prefer DW because LJ keeps on introducing stupid "new features" that their users hate. Except for Spoiler tag, that's pretty cool. More friends and more fandom activity over at LJ though. *shrugs*
Tumblr is fun to stalk/browse, but I hate the inability to comment and have robust discussion attached to the original post *foams at the mouth*

9. (Tried it once. 'twas okay.) Verdict: Inconclusive.

._.

I don't like customized comment pages but that's the only way I can actually post comments (either replying to a comment or posting a new comment to an entry).

LJs without customized comment pages --> LJs that I can't post comments on:

- My own personal LJ (!!!) and the multitude of LJ comm.s I own/mod

- Several people on my f-list

- At least two BNFs (sarahtales and copperbadge)

- A gazillion kink meme/ fic comm.s

=( =( =(

The multitude of bugs, which do not apply to me because I CANNOT EVEN POST COMMENTS in most LJs.

Also, no subject line = Bye-bye, trigger warnings. *slapsface* Why does LJ always do this around the holidays?

one of pure evil, not some creepy pervert with an underwear obsession.

I usually try to save my babbling for LJ, because I don't think all Internet and sundry need/want to see it. But DDoS attack, blah blah blah, so here goes:

1. I've been relying heavily on picowrimo for my cheerleader/support system as I post 100~ word snippets of my current original WIP, "The Proper-False"* [ 1 | 2 | 3 ]. LJ being down --> no support sytem for me** ._.

2. For whatever reason, I prefer to write directly in LJ "post entry" box instead of MS Word. So that was another teensy annoying hindrance to my writing.

3. In (as-yet-unposted) part four, 1270 words are spent entirely in the kitchen *facepalm*
And it's not because they're creatively misusing whipped cream/butter/olive oil/whathaveyou. They're just having CONVERSATION after CONVERSATION. And there's only one innuendo*** in the whole thing.

4 a. ...It feels like this fic exists solely for N and A to banter with each other. Which is true to a certain extent. But still.
4 b. I want to fastforward to plot points**** but the characters want to chat some more (!!!)

5. Not gonna project/estimate how long this fic is going to be, because I foresee tears of frustration =_=
asfjdvkvckkvcxjjl I just wanted to write an m/m Harlequin plot T_T


* I initially referred to it as Chinese Waiter Dude and East Coast Jerkwad, but Adrien is nowhere as jerk-ish as I first envisioned him to be, so for now it's subtitled: "How Nicholas Goh met the Cartwrights" If there's a sequel it'd be "How Adrien Cartwright met the Gohs" =P
** YES, my writing is more important than the Russian 2012 Presidential election or whatever it was that prompted the DDoS attack.
*** Okay, and one implied past sex act. And a brief start start of a fantasy. And one implied fantasy. But it doesn't change the fact that it's all conversation conversation conversation! Over cakes! And hot chocolates!
**** As much as a Harlequin plot can be considered as plottish.


P.S. I guess x-posting is currently not working, even to IJ? ETA 07/31: It did x-post, it was just slow. *only noticed now* *fails*

1. Please fill out this multi-fandom/original drabble tree poll.
The drabble tree will be hosted at mukashi2, so the drabbles have to be based (however loosely) on a fairy tale, folklore, fable, myth or legend.
Read: Merlin drabbles in and of themselves are not enough, you have to include an additional fairy tale/folklore/etc.

2. Voting for Challenge 3 is now open @ summerpornathon.

3. On Friday I repeatedly logged in & posted to dozens of empty/currently inactive journals, just in case it'll get purged in August @_@ I was too late for one account, haha.
...and I suspect I'm forgetting some accounts.
More info @ copperbadge here.

4. Didn't realize that LJ gives the option to downgrade to Basic account* again. That's nice.
* A Basic account is ad-free while viewing your LJ, your friends page, other basic accounts and of course paid accounts. DIE Plus accounts DIE

5. Random dresses from Bebe:
♠ Cutout banded dress -- out of stock
♣ Strapless Stitched Ruffle Party Dress -- Wedding cake X-D Not smth I'd ever own/wear, but it looks great on this model.

(that is, deadly in highly specialized circumstances)

The following is my DW posting & encircling policy (edited on April 26, 2012):

( On X-posting )

( On encircling )

That should take care of everything for now! =)

If you think this is long, you should see my LJ Guide to Friending/Stalking/Lurking @ lilian_cho =P

HALLO THAR, new (and old-ish) friends!
I have some of your journals triple-friended/encircled or smth. It's practically braiding friendship bracelets X-D
