Good one, LJ.

How in the hell could anyone think this was a good idea for a LJ feature? Did you know it sends a little form letter that says "be a friend and go post"!? If anyone ever "nudges" me to tell me to post in my own journal... well, just don't do it. I won't be using this stupid-ass feature to harass any of you, either ( Read more... )

Hee, can you imagine anonymous STFU requests? It'd be wank city!

While reading someone else's rant about this new feature, I also learned that Yahoo messenger has a "buzz" feature so that if someone is feeling ignored, they can press a button and make their friend's IM window shake and their speakers emit a loud buzzing noise. Yet another reason I am so glad I use AIM.

That is...very funny. After I clicked the link I was like "Shit, I don't know what this 'nudging' is but I bet just nudged Amy..." THANKFULLY it just let to my Nudge List or whatever. Paired with the comment counter thingie, that's a good way to trim down the friends list though...:)

Oh, Fleen. When will you learn to vent your anger through the delicate art of PULLMANATION?

I totally went there just to nudge you, but you can only nudge people who haven't updated in a week. Nuts.

I guess it's a good way to check if someone's alive?

If anyone ever nudges me, I will post an entry, all right -- an entry filtered to everyone BUT them, all about how annoying the nudger is. ;)

They could have at least made it interesting, man. Like, "VISCIOUSLY AXE MURDER SOMEONE, SO THEY'LL POST MORE!"

Way to waste talent on not needed features. Go go LJ!

My primary reason for having a LJ is simply to have a recognizable presense to annoy...err reply my LJ friends.
