I've been posting less opinion entries lately, hence the gaping hole in your friends list. It's partially because I'm trying to be less opinionated. It's also partially because I'm opinionated.
I'm reminded of what my old supervisor used to say: "Nothing screams 'I'm important!' like screaming 'I'm important!' into your cell phone."
I have fallen into the same trap. I post my life story on LJ because I have some legitimate friends who really do care. I post to clarify it for myself, and share my life with the people who value me. If ya don't care, then I didn't post for you, so please don't feel obliged to read it. Am I just clogging up the Friends pages of acquaintances? Not if they remove me. If they remove me, they weren't a friend, so I don't give a crap.
Am I wrong? Who's to say... Like a street evangelist on a soap box, I'm only speaking to the people who care. But then again, we have established that I am an asshole. So, honestly and for the sake of humanity, should I stop this heckling?
