I'm just curious

[starrylizard]

I hope this doesn't come across as conceited or anything like that, but my friends list seems to keep growing - something I find amazing and wonderful - and I was just curious as to where you all came from. Why you're here and why you've stayed. I also never use the polling function I pay for each year.

So, I made a quick ticky box poll for anyone who can be bothered. You should be able to tick any number of boxes you like. Like I say, it's just simple curiosity, nothing more or less.

[Poll #1161305]

I'm sure there are other options I didn't think of

Heee. That was fun ;-)

Something else: You're Australian

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Ha! Tick 'em all why don't you! Crazy chick.
Yep, Aussie I am! :)

[lark_ascends]

It all depends on the definition of 'freak' ;-D

[annieb1955.livejournal.com]

Must admit I've wondered the same thing about my flist *g*

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

It's curious isn't it? I just hope everyone doesn't scratch their heads in wonder and bail on me. *g*

[annieb1955.livejournal.com]

I won't. My second answer to your poll would have been, you have interesting posts.

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Thank you! *grin*
Feel free to bail if they get boring at any point. *grin*

[annieb1955.livejournal.com]

Couldn't be more boring than mine. I haven't had time to post in about 3 weeks

[sonadorita.livejournal.com]

*huggles*

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

*squishes you* :)

[thudjack.livejournal.com]

Hee, I believe it was a mutual love of Strictly Ballroom *giggles*

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Haha! I remember that! Gawd, I never did get around to writing an SGA AU. Bad Lizzie! Lol

[thudjack.livejournal.com]

I know! SGA/Strictly Ballroom FTW *sniggers*

[ash48.livejournal.com]

Oh - I can't remember - probably vids! - Did I know you're an Aussie like me? Not sure. Anyway - double bonus!! *waves*

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

hee! Definitely vid-related. :)
Woo, fellow Aussies. We're everywhere, I swear!

[merlins-sister.livejournal.com]

I'm sure there was a PM header in your past...

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Oh, most definitely. And some Weir/Beckett shipping too, I think. :)

[millylicious.livejournal.com]

I can't remember if I friended you before or after spn_apocalypto - so it's probably because you make vids. Did you submit something to PotHVA?

Or *maybe* I know you from somewhere else!

But hee, I totally understand the poll - so many people on my flist I don't remember meeting or friending.

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Yeah it was before the role play. I think you commented on one of my vids and I think I did enter PotHVA, I'm not sure. I went through a phase of entering every vidding thing there was. :)

It's just so curious. All these people. :)

[martoufmarty.livejournal.com]

... Didn't you friend me first? I can't remember these things.

I friended you back because you seemed cool and nice.

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Yep, I friended because I was trying to find vidders that were nice and might answer my newbie questions. Now I just have fun reading your hardware store exploits and such... though I am a terrible commenter. :P

[antigonesgift.livejournal.com]

Ohhh checky boxes!!!

*clicky clicky clicky*

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Heeee! I know where I met you, m'dear. SVS girl. :)
That is the cutest icon!

[mistojen.livejournal.com]

Something else: ...moose + old school SVS chat + WAY too damn early in the morning = WIN. I friended you because you're friggen awesome ;)

PS: the bigger the freak you are, the better, dude, so I hope you're not offended by my checking that. I only friend freaks like me ;)

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Hee, us insomniacs with strange ghostly white moose fantasies gotta stick together. Man I keep opening that fic to finish it, but it's so bad. lol I will, really.

And, I meant freak in a good way. I didn't put anything I would find insulting on the poll. I'm not a complete masochist, y'know. :)

[heylittleriver.livejournal.com]

"Idiots! There will be a friend!"

"But you said-"

"I will be friend! Stick with me and you'll never go hungry again!"


So prepare for the post of the century, (Oooh!)
Be prepared for the murkiest fic, (Oooh... La! La! La!)
Meticulous planning,
LJ posts and spamming,
Decades of denial
is simply why I'll...
Be friend undisputed, (Aaaaaaah...)
respected, saluted, (...aaaaaaah...)
and seen for the wonder I am (...aaaaaaah!)
Yes, my LJ is open to friends (Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo)

Be prepared!


Um. I think that about sums it up.

(I know I ain't around much at the moment, but I'm keeping up. I do believe there was a vow for an LJ-ending bitchfight and I can't recall such a thing just yet...)

[lark_ascends]

*snorts* Ah, yes, the wonderful things that spawned from Laundry. Tee heee heee!

[heylittleriver.livejournal.com]

It still makes me glee! The whole experience!

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Hey, long time no see, but then I am the worst at keeping up with the friends list ever. Part of the reason I'm always amazed y'all stick around.

OMG! How could I forget the Lion King references and the Laundry fic. My first brush with the word Crack!fic. *snuggles* Bettcha didn't see how far astray that would lead me. :P

You, Rinne and Lindsay were probably my first LJ friends. :)

[heylittleriver.livejournal.com]

I keep up; I'm just the world's worst commenter. *g*

Bettcha didn't see how far astray that would lead me. :P

Nope! But I can totally get with being partly-blamed for sending you flying into it. :D

[turquoisetumult.livejournal.com]

When I said I vid and write, it's like once every dozen years. lol. But I checked those two options anyway.

As well as the SPN and SVS option (even though I only recognize you from SVS and we never had the chance to talk there!) :)

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Hee, oh it was meant to be that I vid or write and is that why you hang about. But cool.
Yeah, SVS is definitely the main one there, even if we never chatted. And we bonded over pretty icons. :)

[yokiem.livejournal.com]

I ticked the one that made me laugh... hehe...

You forgot one option! You are my real life friend/I met you in person first!

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but you realise you're the only one who would tick that box. My other rl friends on here I met over their LJ's, not the other way around. Don't you feel special? You're the only person I've corrupted into getting an LJ (and at the time I was so worried you'd think I was a freak and run away.)

I'm meeting WY for lunchie today. :) Wish you could come too, but it's a bit far I guess; 1hour there, have lunch, one hour back. :(

Edit: Just noticed which one you ticked. You're such a dag! Feel free to defriend me any time. Hee! :)

[yokiem.livejournal.com]

Yes, very special! Heheh...

Well, you got me into SGA and vidding... I don't think that wasn't a bad thing :D

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Like I said, I corrupted you! *feels proud*

[yokiem.livejournal.com]

Oh yeah, I was going to add that we should have dinner again with WY depending on how busy you are with packing. Dinner for me anyway cause I dont get to see WY :(

[starrylizard.livejournal.com]

Sure. She sent an email around, but I wasn't sure how to respond, since I have no idea when I'll be available. But if you want to do something with the three of us, I can see when she might be free. :)
