-flist and reverse cut

[faorism]

My friend's list has swelled up again, and I think it's about time that I at least try to cut my list (if only by a bit). I have no bad feelings towards anyone I cut, but I tried to put things into perspective: I always feel like my flist is too bloated to bother, but I refuse to filter my flist. I hate feeling this way, so changes have to be made

lately my problem with my flist has been that most of my lj friends are actually people i've met on twitter or in an old chatroom i used to go to, so none of them use lj very much! thus my lj-active flist is rather miniscule, but i don't really have the time, motivation, or energy to cultivate it or make new friends. ;;

btw i see that kitchensink13 is still part of your flist. you could cut that account, since i don't use it anymore, if you want to clear out clutter!

That blows. :( A lot of the time, I find myself just scrooooolling quickly over my entire flist out of fatigue. Part of it was that I haven't been reading as much fic (outside of rec lists), so the majority of my flist are comms I feel bad about unfollowing just in case. ugggh.

haaha, i totally forgot to unfriend that when you switched over. weird that i didn't unfriend it again when i was going through.

ugh, yes. a lot of the time i'll scroll through and open everybody's posts in new tabs for later (and usually read them), but then they sit there for anywhere from a day to a few weeks and then i close them because i just can't be bothered. :\

i've cut out a lot of the comms i used to follow, but with summer & getting into new fandoms & rediscovering old ones i'm trying to figure out if i should find new (doctor who & torchwood lmao) comms to follow or not.

I totally get that. It's weird: I read a lot of the posts my flisters write, but I never seem to comment to them. Like, I know that when someone drops by and just says " :) " or "Ohmigoh this" I appreciate it, but I feel so embarrassed not leaving a suupa deep comment.

DOCTOR WHO. DOCCCCCCCTOR WHO. I would wait until you're a little farther in to start watching comms. There are major spoilers floating around the fandom because they assume that everyone's caught up. I don't actually have that many DW comms I'm following (and no TW) but I do have enough friends on my flist that post oimfeoamfelk all the time.

omg I love how you STILL think I could unfriend you. PYRO I LOVE YOU AND YOUR QUIET, LURKERY WAYS. /squeezes.

Dude, I'm 19 and American and a sad confused child. :) YOUR CUTENESS HAS GIVEN ME A COMPLEX. But srsly, I'm actually not that cool. I'm a huge ole cheeseball in rl, and I only pretend to have a personality online. SRSLY I AM LAME, AND STOP GIVING YOURSELF SO LITTLE CREDIT. >:|

HI THAR I'M FAOR AND I ADORE YOU TO BITS, HAVE THE LITTLE PIECES OF MY HEART ON A SILVER PLATTER. ♥ that there is one COOL copypasta.

[faorism]

Yo, dawg, I was seriously considering unfriending you for like, an hour just to prove a point, but I couldn't do it BECAUSE OF THE LOVES.

omg hi I'm doing fine and how are you I have extreme homolust for your face whuuuuuuut~

[faorism]

But I am lovable. A big ole trollface, but a lovable one.

[faorism]

I've added you right back. Like I said, I don't mind and I even love my lurkers, but it's hard for me to tell who's lurking and who just doesn't care. Thank you for caring enough to drop the comment! ♥
