LAS and LJ and stuff

[ratherastory]

Got my submission in for LAS just under the wire (since I have to leave in an hour). I wasn't especially inspired by the prompt, so I'm hoping that won't get me voted out of this round. Then again, even if my admittedly fragile writer's ego would take a blow, maybe it would be a blessing in disguise if I was voted out. I am clearly not mature enough to handle these "competitions" like a grown-up. :P

Anyway, I'm sure you've ALL heard/seen about LJ's new BFF policy with Facebook and Twitter. I would very much appreciate it if you'd all show me the courtesy of not reposting my content anywhere without my express permission. I'm sure you are all awesome and weren't planning on it, but this is a preemptive measure.

I don't have that many tags with "/" as a character, but I do hope LJ fixes that bug soon. It's a pain for the comms I'm in.

This facebook, twitter thing is really disturbing. Whoever thought this was a good idea needs a demotion.

And I wouldn't worry about las. I'm really certain you won't be getting the boot anytime soon, no matter how uninspired you were by the prompt!

I'm not worried, per se. It's just that the competitive format is not good for my inner five-year-old. It brings out the "Waaaah! Nobody loves me!" reactions when I get rejected, eventually. ;)

And yes, the facebook/twitter/livejournal trifecta of doom is really disturbing.
