Hello, all you black-clad digital miscreants who have jumped onto my LJ in the wake of C14.

I'm not going to kid you - I bitch about politics and economics a lot. I'm really good at it, and I'm usually right. Those posts usually have a [Politics] tag on 'em for ease of skipping if you're so inclined. I enjoy arguing, and if I know you can take a punch, I'll throw one.

Don't be offended if I didn't friend you right away - I have relatively limited reading time and patience - some folks I adore personally aren't on here because I suck at housekeeping. It really isn't anything personal, it's just that I'm lazy and think LJ chose a shitty term for the tool/mechanic.


I seldom post anything f-locked anyways. The world is entitled to and much better off for having encountered my opinion, thank you very much.



There are exactly two filters here -- one for where I babble about [Fitness] & my workout regimen, and if you'd like to be included on that (Daven, I put you there already), pipe up -- the other is for private shit (which is maintained by my spicy brainmeats alone).

I'll be starting my exercise/nutrition/etc filter up again after DragonCon. And yes, you will be stuck on it.

Not when he plays World of Warcraft. Then he's quite the squishy and spends large amount of time admiring the intricate patterns on whatever ground-like substance is currently present.

Hey, I was nice! I even think I said "please." and you'll note that i did not deform your unborn child by attempting to hug the bejeezus out of your missus this weekend. ;-)

I just personally hate twitter. To me, it's like overhearing half of a cell-phone conversation, especially for folks with a heavy @_____ concentration. A daily concatenation of the previous day's twittage is damn near useless if it's all "I'm going to ____ for lunch, anyone want a burger or to meet up?" or "yeah, that's what SHE said!" stripped of context and timeliness, it's just noise.

NOTE TO TWITS: I WON'T BALEET YOU FOR TWITTING, BUT VERY MUCH APPRECIATE IT IF THEY'RE BEHIND A CUT TAG.

see? i can be civil. it just chafes a bit.

I am kinda looking forward to my Daughter.

no worries about the twitter stuff

don't make me hump your leg again. if you did it like a civilized person, rather than straddling my thigh, your junk wouldn't get jostled.

I would really like to be put on your fitness filter. The more I can learn to apply to my own fitness stuffs, the better.

But I like people who bitch about politics and economics a lot.

then you're gonna love me.

At least I can be sure you know to skim no further than the first three words or so of my posts because they have an understood [bloviating] or [prolix] tag at the front ;)

All the more reason I'm thrilled when you *do* reply...then I worry cuz you must be bored and trouble can only follow *eg*

Fitness filter, please. Here, have a boobie icon as a bribe. Hehehe. ;)

Would be happy if you did friend me back. I've been reading you since Trid & Christal's wedding. I like bitching about politics too but I keep it friends-locked because I'm a government employee.

So am I, and it doesn't stop me. ;)
Date/Time: 2008-08-22 02:09 (UTC)Posted by: [identity profile] cchan8.livejournal.com
Yes but do you work in an agency or office that has a lot of political appointees?
Date/Time: 2008-08-22 21:30 (UTC)Posted by: [identity profile] firefly-pilot.livejournal.com
Well, no. :)

(Side note - in response to an internet quiz sent to me recently by a friend, to the question "What are you listening to right now?" I responded "My wife talking to an online friend, and the voices in my head telling me to assassinate the president.")

workout filter please (if you friend me). no biggie though. I don't do many f-locks either.
