A Little Experiment

Jan 26, 2005 00:58

So, I was just thinking about how each one of you has a unique way of saying things. The way you word things is so different from each other. I just read pretty much the same exact thing that two different people wrote to me and the wording was just SO different. I think I could have been able to figure out who each thing was from without actually ( Read more... )

IS the special thing that you locked it? You don't normally lock them do you?

And no-one can post anonymously to this post because:

So by locking it you stopped the point of the post, how ironic ;)

Ugh. Ok, thanks, I will unlock it. Damn it!! I hate not having them locked. I ALWAYS lock them. ALWAYS. So Jam, you were wrong. No irony afterall.

Sooo... here I am, posting anonymously. I guess I don't get a cookie though. Oh well, I'd rather have... wait, that would give it away.

What makes the little dude at the computer dorky, anyway?

justlindseyh January 26 2005, 08:36:45 UTC

I think it's just cuz he's at the computer.

Nope, no cookie for you. If you want to think about it some more you can. I give second chances you know.

anonymous January 26 2005, 08:41:33 UTC

Second chances????? Ain't got no time for second chances!

I don't get the cookie either, I suppose. :( You're very tricky, Lindsey.

Give what away is what i want to know :p

Well, aren't you a perceptive one? I guess no cookie for me, cause I couldn't figure out what you did.

justlindseyh January 26 2005, 09:13:00 UTC

I knew this was April right away! I'm so good!! Yay!!

Now, do you realize that untill you tell me how much you love my icon I'm going to keep using this one?

Oh, and dude, you of all people should get this. You're the perceptive one. And you're the one that knows what I'm doing. I think you're the only one too.

To figure out what I did you MUST go through most of my entries. Without doing that you'll never get it. Unless, of course, it's something that you noticed in the past.

I concur that your presumed theory of individualized and unique "speech" patterns are not only quite different but should be very recognizable.

People who do not communicate exclusively with friends via the internet have a difficult time not only grasping but believing this concept. I know I can recognize mood, tone etc. of so many of you simply from typed words on a screen.

I also notice that the closer some of us/you get some of you begin to adapt patterns of speech and expressions of others. This is how all friendships are, I suppose. This has most likely been noted in many volumes of anthropological study.

Hey Lindsey, if you have time don't forget tomorrow is Down The Rabbit Hold day :)

justlindseyh January 26 2005, 17:30:05 UTC

Yes, I remember, thank you.
