annoyed.

Damn. You know, you people who are all up in arms and Hate LJ are still NOT GETTING IT. You keep saying "OMG LEAVING." and "HERE'S MY NEW NICK" and all that crap. AND YOU STILL WON'T LEAVE.

Just get it the fuck OVER with already. OR SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT IT.

Jesus fucking christ, people.

And then there's all of you people claiming that companies with bad customer service and policies tank. NO THEY FUCKING DON'T or Roundys would fucking be out of the goddamn fucking business. Instead, a company that fucks everyone up the ass, reduces the variety of goods they sell (despite popular demand for several of them) and treats its employees and customers alike like shit is EXPANDING and buying more fucking grocery stores.

So, no. Big business and businesses don't have to give a shit about you, because you are all fucking replaceable commodities.

Go read a goddamn issue of Forbes, or something geared to rich people and then come tell me their message is "please the consumer" because it really fucking isn't.

A-fucking-men!

And there's the GENIUS of the Vikings invading the thread where the chick posted the YouTube clip of herself burning her LJ t-shirt.

Man, this whole plethora of festering idiocy was almost WORTH it for that alone.

So, we can only have new nick if we leave?

Are you planning to continually lament the State of LJ, and talk about how you're leaving?

[identity profile] musicforcylons.livejournal.com 2007-08-07 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
No.

...should I pencil that into my schedule?

[identity profile] lizardbeth-j.livejournal.com 2007-08-07 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
Wouldn't it be nice if they all left, like, yesterday? Just reading through the list of links on [livejournal.com profile] metafandom makes me all irritable. Yeah, people, put up or shut up. So far, I'm not missing anyone. You?

And all this bs about LJ not being clear? People were seriously expecting a bullet-point list of "thou shalt nots"? Seriously?

Although I have heard tell of a YouTube vid of some chick burning her LJ t-shirt being roundly mocked in the comments -- I should dig that up.

Here's the thread in question. (http://news.livejournal.com/102095.html?thread=54781391#t54781391) But if you scroll down to the VIKING INVASION (see [livejournal.com profile] doomed_thorvald's comment and ensuing Viking hijinx, it's hilarious).

But the real comedy gold is here, (http://news.livejournal.com/102095.html?thread=54899663#t54899663) when the Vikings went apeshit on [livejournal.com profile] news, mocking everyone and everyone.

AWESOME! thx! :D

The vikings officially win, at everything.

Yes, yes it would.

I suspect if there was a bullet-point list, half of fandom would end up TOSsed.

Someone told me I should watch it, but it was like ten minutes long, and she's the most boring-ass person I've ever heard speak. After ten seconds, I turned it off and went on to do other things.

heh, I just wanted to read the Viking invasion part. If some chick wants to burn her LJ shirt (dude, she had an LJ shirt in the first place?), whatever. There is no hate like that of a lover scorned, I guess.

And now the main PotC fic comm has decided to be all moderated and shit. Paranoid much? *sigh*

I wandered over to Insane Journal and found out their servers were down all night from too many people establishing accounts. This would not fill me with a great deal of confidence if I wanted to join up...

*snickers at the last bit* Oh, yes. The great LJ Exodus...

Scuppered by shitty servers everywhere but LJ.

How do you manage to spend so much energy being angry?

[identity profile] foenix.livejournal.com 2007-08-07 08:30 am (UTC)(link)
Lots of spinach. =)

I don't even like spinach...

*snort* I have to admit, it's sort of like a mob of people who are all up in arms and ranting about leaving... but no one wants to be the first, so they're all sort of milling around in a big crowd on the floor.

And here's Lyssie in front of the door, "Let's GOOOOOO, people! THIS WAY!" *making grand, sweeping hand gestures toward the door*

And I will happily slam the door after them. Because if they seriously think any other service is going to be better, they're deluding themselves.

Precisely what I've been trying to tell them.

You rock, you know.

Thank you.

Well...
[Error: Irreparable invalid markup ('<a [...] </a>') in entry. Owner must fix manually. Raw contents below.]

Well...<a href="http://www.greatestjournal.com"</a>Greatest Journal</a> has the same architecture, but offers 2,000 free user pics, which can be 60Kb, rather than Livejournal's 40Kb. So that's somewhat tempting.

*shrugs* Not that I'm really doing anything about it.

Apart from mucking up html tags, apparently.

Dude, who said I was leaving? I just want a backup.

Not I. Er, that I know of. Mostly, I'm seeing people saying "omg I should leave LJ!" in comments, and then... commenting s'more.
