Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Today I have a very sore throat, so I sound a lot like one of those old, chain-smoking grannies who spend way too much time at the slots.

So, it being Valentine's Day, I walked around campus with bags of those chalky conversation hearts, merrily passing them to strangers while I croaked, "Want some caahn-:coughhack:-dee?"

People took the little packets.
I think I kinda scared them into accepting them.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

This Gaia even is making me giggle like a neurotic schoolgirl infatuated with her teacher, and trust me- it doesn't sound too nice.

Happy birthday to ME x19

Watch and be entertained.

Sometimes, I really feel like drawing a stranger's avatar.

Scenario: I'm browsing through a forum, not quite paying attention to the threads but clicking on them anyway. I enter one, and there is an awesome avatar: awesome as in not one that meticulously color matches (yeah, um, color-wheel addicts :B), but one that really pulls off a theme. Like a cowboy. I save the avatar to an art program, but then, delete the file.
I'd feel so weird drawing the avatar without the user knowing. ( gonk )
Then I head to Art Freebies, only to find many avatars there just don't work on any interesting level (that sounds snobbish).

So now, I wait for an awesome avatar to show up in the freebies.

END OF POINTLESS STORY TIME.

SPRING BREAK!

My, these entries have been short in text.

Keine Lust preview.

6 more months until my 19th birthday. ( surprised )
What a stupid weird age I will be.

Hurhurhur, I AM HILARIOUS. ( gonk )
So now we are all given pseudo-mod status on Gaia.
Very, very bad I say!
With this new power:
1. The easily offended can report anyone with the reasoning, "But... THEY WENT AGAINST MY RELIGION OMFG!"
2. N00bs could report users for not giving them gold/ items. (Given their intellect, I wouldn't lightly dismiss this possibility).
3. Personal vendettas could be carried out, turning forums into mass banning zones.
4. The egomaniacs out there, with their delusional tendencies to believe they infallible, could take it upon themselves to enforce the ToS in a more self-serving way.

Yeah, this all sound like a slippery slope argument... but with regards to number 4, I hope some level-headed regulars in GD will help clean it up- it was awesome back in the summer of 03.

Let's see what the admins will do, given all the feedback circulating around Gaia.

In any case, I'll just keep on fishing. ( 3nodding )
