Honestly, I added you because I loved your essays, and I only skim them now because of the lack of caps.

ahahaha. Wow, this is a wide-spread problem, apparently ><;;

oh well, now I know :D

I'm so totally to capslessness online, it's just sort of weird having it be an issue, but I suppose caps exist for a reason. *laughs*

Wah, I have to agree.

I think you're brilliant Reena and I love reading your posts, but I can't read them all, because they're actually exhausting to read sometimes. Caps just make your eyes have to do less work.

meep ^^

Oh man, it's more than 1-2 people apparently -.-

Well, I'm glad I know now. *laughs*

Will fix it, then~:)

why do you have me friended?
I believe this was answered already when I stated about the Binghamton thing. By the way, I'm in Binghamton now.

should i start using capitals for your viewing pleasure?
I don't give a damn what you do with your letters.

what would induce you to comment?
Something stupid, like this.

are you bored with the all-meta-all-the-time?
See, this is the luxury of having added you and not knowing you. I feel no obligation to read your posts when I'm not in the mood [not that I read those that I'm obligated to read anyway].

Date: 2003-09-07 11:03 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
hee. i feel so liberated. i can do anything i want with my letters. it's a relief :D

how are you liking it here, btw?~:)

oh, and i totally used to feel an obligation to read everyone i friended, before i had around 100 people and it became impossible -.- usually, i just don't friend unless i find them extremely fascinating to the point of wanting to read everything they say. sadly, those people are few and far between >____

1. I'm scared out of my mind. Hicks everywhere.

2. I'm surprised you think anyone deserves to be considered so fascinating.

From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
hehehe you mean hicks on campus or in town? of course, it's kind of both, but it's more of a mix depending where you are (ie, ciw is bad, but then there's like, the geek table in dickinson dining hall. hee. 'tis the traditional hide out).

i am easily fascinated by people i consider funny or who produce a lot of writing/poetry. i mean, if they're funny, usually they're funny almost all the time. and i am very easily amused :D

Town, I suppose. I'm at Hinman. Are/were you at this school that you know about it?

Date: 2003-09-08 02:52 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
i go to suny binghamton, though i live off campus. i still spend most of my time here & eat here and so on. you could've seen me (and vice versa) today and neither of us would have a clue.

freaky ^^;


am in the computer pod right now. great, now i feel like my own stalker ><

Ah! How strange.. I think one day we should meet... if only to pass and say hello. Weird weird weird

Date: 2003-09-08 03:06 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
that would, indeed, be weird.

but possibly interesting -.-
you might like the back entrance-room of the dickinson dining hall if the people are too "normal" in hinman, really~:) i know i've said that, but. yeah >

From: [identity profile] oik.livejournal.com
Then maybe we should plan a meeting at a Dickinson back table?

Date: 2003-09-08 03:24 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
er, sure~:) i'm there like, every day, so it wouldn't be hard. well, i'll be there more once i've got my meal card started -.-
but! er, will be there today after i finish here in about 20 minutes, and tomorrow and the day after and into infinity around dinner-time~:)

mostly, the anime club & the theatre geeks and the general geeks traditionally assemble there :D

Date: 2003-09-08 04:41 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] oik.livejournal.com
You must help me. I wanted to join that club desperately, but I haven't been able to find anything about it. Now we really do need to meet up so you can help me get involved in it. I'm free all day after six PM, and I'm free between 2:50 and 4:00PM. Nya!

Date: 2003-09-08 07:01 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
heheh. no, you don't need me for the anime club-- they're the people at that table, mostly. and anyway, it's saturdays at 3pm in the fine arts building, room 235 i think? damn i'm not sure, but it's um... on that floor, last door down the corridor from the elevator -.-

anyway, there'll be signs up before each show~:)
but if you're around the dickinson table around 6pm, i can probably point you to someone in the club. *laughs*

Date: 2003-09-09 11:42 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] oik.livejournal.com
Are you afraid to be affiliated with such people or something? Hmm... well anyway, if I am to meet you tonight perhaps it would be best if we knew what the other looked like? Not specifics, just general features and what clothes we're wearing? Or is that too creepy? I'm off now until 420 if you're not busy. Eh.

Date: 2003-09-09 01:27 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
well, i er... my class just -ended- at 4:20. um. i'm still on-campus though. i'm wearing a green striped shirt and brown pants~:) oh, and a brown hat.

and no, um, i'm just shy so i just hang around them without talking. i used to have people i knew there but they've all graduated -.- man, i've been here -way- too long, heh.

From: [identity profile] oik.livejournal.com
Ok.. then should I go to Dickinson now? Nyehhh this is kind of scary

Date: 2003-09-09 03:16 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
well, er. which is the scary part? did you just want me to point you to the (possibly there) geeks or say hi or what? i'm not scary personally, though i can't vouch for others ><;;

Date: 2003-09-09 03:39 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] oik.livejournal.com
The thought of not knowing who you are but looking for you in a crowded room and acting like an idiot while doing so is scary. Are you still in the PODS? I really hope so because I didn't tell you what I'm wearing just in case you spot me.

Speaking of which, I'm wearing a green golf shirt and REALLY REALLY large demin pants. And I've got black hair, but nearly everyone on this campus does. But I'm not asian.

are you a girl or a boy? hee. *dies*

okay but i'm in the acad a pod. i can just come down to dickinson since er, it's almost 7 -.-

You know what? I'm going to do some homework outside Dickinson dining hall. On those benches in front of that seemingly useless pit with the giant cement circle inside it.

I enjoy your fics and your meta, and as for the caps thing, for me it would increase the readability of your long posts but it's not a big deal.

:D

From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
man, i knew there was a reason i don't ask about myself often.

*feels awfully self-centered*

but! i didn't want to have a whole poll just to say, "should i capitalize". heh.

but er... i think the overall vote is something like, "yah, it would be -better-". i suppose the mind-shift required would make me think of this more as "essays" rather than like chatting (which i don't use caps for 'cause i type a zillion words per minute). heh. er, but yah! am glad it's not a big deal to you, anyway ^^;

If your meta is just like chatting, then I am greatly impressed. My chat logs usually look like roadkill. My essays also look like roadkill. Hmm ;)

From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
heheh, this is why i am partly a bad chatter :D :D unless you really happen to like my particular sort of wordy insanity (which ...well... it does happen). i totally can't stop babbling on about abstract concepts in a stream-of-consciousness raw-output sort of way. i mean, a lot of people have told me i don't make sense, you know, and that's prolly because it's all raw :D

*laughs* that's a pun on that random-access-writing style thingie, which i also do~:)
man, i suck at actual "real" essays which need like.. conciseness and clear arguments and straightforwardness. i was really really hoping everyone friended me for the porn, btw. ahahaha. but that's just because i would be greatly amused :D

Umm.. I ran your last couple formats through word 2000's cap formating option of sentance capitalization on your last couple paragraphs, and this is what came out:

I think as long as your punctuation is standard (1st paragraph it catches it pretty well..

could run it through and have things half way better or sort of best of both worlds.

just a thought ;)

why do you have me friended?

because i adore your writing. you make everything so dreamy and ethereal, even when talking about the squick of lucius/draco fanfiction. and you're a sweetheart. i adore you and your rambling meta, never change.

should i start using capitals for your viewing pleasure?

no. you are who you are and i actually really love the way you don't use capitals. like you are too excited to bother.

what would induce you to comment?

i comment when i feel that i can reply at least somewhat coherently. or any fanfic that i have the time and inclination to read.

are you bored with the all-meta-all-the-time?

darling. personally, i look forward to your entries. i am extremely thrilled when i see you've posted. i find your meta insightful and intresting, and expressed clearly.

Date: 2003-09-08 03:08 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
eeeeee! <3!

thanks >:D<
although i still prolly will use caps at least on the longer, more ponderous entries just 'cause i don't want to alienate anyone. like. if it's hurting someone's eyes and making them not wanna read, it makes me wanna fix it, so yeah~:)

i will miss you, lack-of-capital-letters meta.

Actually, I <3 the meta, and am not bugged by the caps thing at all. ;)

i totally dig that some people don't mind the capslessness, but i feel like i'd be doing a public service to improve their vision if i used them, or something. so yeah -.-

but i'm glad i'm not the only one who reads just fine without caps ~:)

I originally friended you because you friended me, but I'm keeping you for the porn, obviously.

Also I have the attention span of me, so I tend to be on and off with the meta essays. It is kind of scary to click on a cut tag and suddenly be faced with big rectangles of uncapitalized text interspersed with dashes and anime smilies. And you know I'm just going to end up commenting "that was great, write more porn, kthnxbye" or possibly rambling back and talking trash about other fandom-types anyway. So um.

I don't think meta really gets boring, because it's not like you're busting out an essay a day or anything. But if you'd like to break up the meta with more porn and fandom gossip, I would be down with that, yep.

*slinks off*

From: [identity profile] yourpoison.livejournal.com
heeeeeee. you are totally my perfect audience, man. 'cause like, you tell me how it is without "i need to worry about not hurting her feelings and i shouldn't tell her things she doesn't want to hear, or maybe she'll just think i'm dumb" ('cause obviously you know i won't think you're dumb) and yet you know what i'm sayin' in the first place and i dig that :D

so yeah.
you -know- i love it when people ramble back, right? 'cause i do. what kind of rambler would i be if i didn't want some back? it goes both ways, man~:)

ahahah also. -what- fandom gossip?? *laughs*
if you tell me some i can spread it around >:D<'
you're the one with the sekrit journals friended, man!!11! *JEALOUSY* :D

you could give me porn assignments some weeks. like, we could swap 'em. like, porn-drabble fridays! or sundays! i write porn, you write porn, anyone else can join in!! we post it on our ljs and everyone's happy. or something. or a porn community, but that's kinda unwieldy.

*has big plans again*
anyway, i can just message you on aim or you can comment me with "this week i want -this- sort of porn" ahahaah and i'll see what i can do >:D

I just think that you're a great person, your views are lovely (another reason I added you - I love the meta-writings, seriously), and I don't really care if you use Caps or not. Who cares? Your message is the one that's important, ya know?

thankees~^^;
i feel a bit like i've asked for reassurance or compliments or some such now ><
which. er. yeah, i didn't mean to -.-
but er, it was mostly to see whether people really did have problems reading. which it appears at least 40% does. but er, i appreciate the other 60% too of course, even though... eh. i'll prolly use caps at least on the longer entries now ~:)
