Now, listen.

You must all go and play with the six degrees of separation thing. It is very priddie. It kept me amused for a while. Now people seem to have fizzled out. It works best if you add lots of mappings. Go. Do. Or I'll give you Plague! I am not well and I demand to be kept amused!

In other news I am still not feeling well, although the feverishness seems to have gone, which means normal service should be resumed fairly shortly.

DISCLAIMER: Under normal circumstances I am generally quite willing to be responsible for my own amusement.

No :p I don't like it.

Why not?

It rubs me up the wrong way. X shagged Y, Y snogged Z. I just don't go around telling random people that kind of thing. And the other possible interactions aren't all that interesting.

I don't like snogweb either.

[ewtikins.livejournal.com]

It's information that's in the public domain anyway, though.

If X shagged Y and they don't want anyone to know then they should nto tell anyone; if X shagged Y and they did not discuss whether they want anyone to know then it is a bit pointless to run around after the fact saying 'You should not tell people that!' If I have met someone I do not see a problem with saying so, unless they have explicitly asked me not to let anyone know (and I can't think of very many practical reasons for this). If person Z starts entering rumours about persons X and Y then persons X and Y do NOT have to confirm them, in which case they remain rumours, and person Z looks like a pillock.

Have not heard of snogweb.

It probably helps that I have only snogged/shagged one person in my life, ever, and it is no great secret. The 'who has lived where' and 'who has met people I know' interactions are far more interesting to me. I don't particularly care whether they've snogged each other.

It's not so much that I mind people knowing - I don't, at all - but that it's not the sort of thing I talk about. I'm not usually "couply" in public either. I feel that making a point of your relationships can make other people feel quite uncomfortable, and I don't like making people uncomfortable because that makes me feel uncomfortable.

That's a bit of a sidetrack though. I dunno. It's really a gut reaction - I don't like the whatsit and so I'm not going to be using it. I don't want to say too much more about that because people will start getting offended, and that leads to tedium.

I am going to check out that Bunty place today - am already checking for something for Tamsin, do you want me to look out for anything in particular for you? I'm hoping they have some Addi Turbos.

Am skint. Must not buy any more wool. Must not go to wool shops, must not send other people to wool shops, must not under ANY circumstances buy any more wool.

Tempting though, and thanks for offering.

I have to say that x shagged/snogged y being thrown in your face if you look, did make me a tad uncomfortable. You read it on something like this, and you think "well, did it *really* need to tell me that?"


And ewt: If you try doing tons of stuff as soon as you feel better, you'll make yourself feel iller! Take a break, do stuff slowly, dammit! *mutter mutter*

it didnae work!

[phelyan.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think it's the 'six degrees of penetration' that got me that way as well. Plus, I hardly know anyone on my friends list personally...

[arkady.livejournal.com]

I think there ought to be a "disagree" option for rumours as well. I've filled in a feedback form to that effect.

[flannelcat.livejournal.com]

But either none of them work for people on m friends list, or it's information I don't want to share...

See, there's nothing on there I could say about you.

Unlesssss....

See earlier comments re: pillocks. ;P

I will be going to Brighton sometime in November (weekend of 9th I think) for a choir concert. We should meet.

Sorry to disappoint you though; I won't be available for marriage, shagging, or divorce.

Bah. Okay.

I will be going to Brighton sometime in November (weekend of 9th I think) for a choir concert. We should meet.
I'm always up for meeting people. Is it you that's singing?
What kind of stuff?

Sorry to disappoint you though; I won't be available for marriage, shagging, or divorce.
No? Ah, no worries, then.
Fancy sharng books instead?

Singing Jewish stuff with the Zemel Choir.

I'm not sure I have any you'd be interested in that I could bring. I do have some banner poi though, and could happily make a complete fool of myself.

Cool! Where is it you're singing? I'll try and get some tickets for J and I.

I'm not sure I have any you'd be interested in that I could bring.

Oh, I don't know. I'm up for anything half interesting. It's more to do with the fact that avalon_bliss and I are gng to try and get an Lj book trade thang going on. Check my last post.

As for Poi, tough, I'm ALWAYS up for that. I don't own any banner poi of my own, but I DO have fire poi, if the gig is late enough.

Looks like the concert itself is on Sunday night, 7pm, it doesn't say where yet. On the Saturday night I will have to be in London (teaching after Shabbat goes out; then it's the Cub Scouts fireworks night, fun fun!). I don't know yet whether I'll be dragging shevek down as well, I could in theory travel back on Monday instead of going back on Sunday night with the choir.
