tin foil hat, anyone?

you know, as crazy as fandom can get, i still love it. even if i'm not as involved as i once was. it's brought me so many good things in my life and i wouldn't trade any of them. hell...some of the worst flame wars i was involved in at the beta are some of my favorite memories because it made me bond with so many of you.

with crazy fandom comes melodrama. being defriended doesn't bother me. in fact, it either amuses me either because i'd been procrastinating on defriending the other person or i'm just apathetic about it. so ummm...if you've been wanting to get rid of me, now's your chance! every day is defriend [livejournal.com profile] tiggz amnesty day!

i never apologize for my opinions. i shouldn't have to because they are opinions. people who do puzzle me. seriously. especially when they post what could be construed as offensive crap and then say "sorry if anyone's offended. that's just my opinion." here's a thought, find a way to state your opinion without being an inconsiderate jackhole and then you don't have to apologize for it. *shrug* to each their own.

*prepares for mass defriending*

Well, FINE!

And you have stupid hair!

yeah, well. your's goes straight up and you're bloody stupid! so there!

[identity profile] daintress.livejournal.com 2007-12-12 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Lol! Yeah, I tend not to apologize for much either. If I say it, it's because I mean it. If it offends people? I rarely care. I think I'm careful enough with my word choice that if someone is offended, it's because they're much too easily offended, and they are welcome to defriend me at their earliest convenience. *snerk*

exactly!!

I may not always agree with you but I respect your opinions so no de-friending from me!

And I bet you're thinking "damn! I was this close to getting rid of her" ;)

Is this over the Twilight wank? Oy vey.

It's days like these that make me happy I've stepped back from much of fandom lately.

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-12-12 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
indeed, i believe it is.

Same here! You really see who is and who isn't a jackass during wank and flame wars. I've friended many a person after nodding along to everything they had to say about a wank. Plus, there's no bonding like the bonding of mutual bitching. *g*

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 03:59 pm (UTC)(link)
totally! i've noticed though that as the years have gone on and i've jumped from fandom to fandom that the flame wars and wank are getting more and more stupid and not at all as fantastical to watch.

I couldn't possibly de-friend you after the infamous VIP desk from Hell incident.

ha! which one? the part where i got the girls kicked out for sneaking into the VIP section?

oh i'll have a foil hat - don't want those aliens stealing my brainwaves!
Lol seriously though the drama of LJ friending baffles me - Its all too much of a headache! :/ And apologies but you're not getting rid of me anytime soon ;)

damn! *g*

[identity profile] sweetcheri.livejournal.com 2007-12-12 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG! I am SO offended by the fact that you posted about people defriending you! ;) Your snarky opinions always make me laugh, my friend! lol

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:03 pm (UTC)(link)
heh...good to know! i'm glad i can amuse someone!

How dare you think I would defriend you. I am hurt that you made a post all about mememe and are trying to make me defriend you.

Haha, just for that I will NEVAH defriend you. j/k

Okay, I will never defriend you because I love you and you are one of my vest friends.

Plus, as members of the Alternate Evil Dictatorship there is that life long bond.

*sigh* And I so wanted to do a grand flouncey-McFlounce.

.... I have no idea what's going on.

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
apparently what i posted the other day about the Twilight fandom made someone defriend me. so i decided to lay it out on the table that if anyone was sick of me and my opinions they could defriend me with no hard feelings. no biggie...

[identity profile] changingthings.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 12:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Haha, if you were hoping to get rid of me, you're SOL. I'll admit there's a couple of people I wish would defriend me so I don't have to, but tiggy ain't one of them.

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
heh. i know what you mean. also? *smooooooooch*

[identity profile] carpedi7.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 03:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry, can't get rid of me that easy. LOL


Love ya and *SMOOOOOOOOCH*

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:13 pm (UTC)(link)
my plan has backfired! damn! ;)

love you too! *smoooooooooooch* (your hair is sooooo adorable! i wish i could pull off the short look.)

[identity profile] carpedi7.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Wait till you see the real pictures, the one on the phone didn't do it justice. I plan on trying to take some tonight. Thanks though and yup, I made your plan backfire, I'm sneaky like that.

[identity profile] austin154.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG never! You are like number 3 on the Top Ten List of Very Best Things of Fandom.

here's a thought, find a way to state your opinion without being an inconsiderate jackhole and then you don't have to apologize for it. *shrug* to each their own.

That is a perfect example. That is your signature writing and I would miss it terribly! Besides, it feels like we are friends and I don't know when that magic moment happened on the interweb. Sometime after the Beta and before B.org. :)

[identity profile] tiggz.livejournal.com 2007-12-13 04:15 pm (UTC)(link)
number 3, huh? what are the other two? ;)

we are definitely friends and i'm happy about it! i'm glad to see you've stuck around b.org.

Number 1 : Dean's right eye

Although it was pretty silly of me to list "fandom" as a singular when we share so many. lol I forgot to tell you I talked to a "Lyla Garrity" last week and it was all I could do not to say something about the show. I'm pretty sure if I had said anything it would have been met with stunned silence as she was easily in her 80's.

umwjhat? I'm a litle fuzzy with my hot toddy brain right now so I'll re read tomorrow. I'm not defriending you and thats final!

[identity profile] foxant10.livejournal.com 2007-12-17 02:30 pm (UTC)(link)
finally!!

no more flame wars over defriending you? now i can do it quietly and peacefully from the safety of my house where i don't have to face a half-crazed book fanatic in showing them how little they mean to me by removing them from a bloglist. next thing you know, i'm dropping you from my myspace top friends! OOOOOHHHH... BURN!

people need to grow a pair.

yeah... you expected something different from me? ;)
