Comments meme - lost sight of how many times I did it

[salinea]

The more time goes, the more I become antisocial. It's funny really. I remember a time when I actually yearned for, you know, people compagnonship and felt lonely. Nowadays, all i want is a good book, an internet connection, food & tea and I'm happy.

Of course this is directly related to how tired I am all the time. I have observed that when I have leisurely time, I'm composed, charming, levelheaded and easily amused. When I don't sleep enough, however, I have a temper the width of a hair and feel like clawing the eyes of the first person coming close. This explains a lot about the world in general, I suppose.

Nothing much new. I want an icon that says "Books are better than sex", but I'm too lazy to make it. Alternatively, I'm getting extremely sick of icons in general. Is it me or do most of iconmakers always do the same style over and over again, to the point where images are so distorted they don't even look like anything anymore, and text is just random lyrics or overused jokes ?

Being antisocial is fun. For a few months, anyway. That's what I use summer break for. :D

My icons have ALWAYS just had random silly stuff or lyrics on them. XD Oh well.

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

You know, one of the reason I've always liked your icon is that they often had very pertinent text.

That and the pretties. Though I think i'm just being overly cynical with the whole deal, and, well, iconmaking is a very narrow artistic medium. You're doomed to get tired of it atn some point.

[littledust.livejournal.com]

Oh, now I see what you mean by random lyrics. ^^ Yeah, I tend to hunt around until I find lyrics that are actually appropriate for the character. Go me!

Icon-making is dumb fun, and nice stress relief. XD

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Aye, "random" was the key word, not "lyrics".

Yeah, I remember when I looked forward to inconmaking as a destressing passtime... I dunno why it changed.

[luminaire.livejournal.com]

...that's kinda sad that my other journal leads the comment stats by 40. :x I suck at commenting.

As for icons, I'm appalled by the idea of text brushes. That's a trend I wish would die painfully and quickly.

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

'tis the downside of switching journal. ^^ You're still up there in the comments, besides, it's the quality that counts not the size quantity.

Hear, hear ! I loath text brushes. And too small unreadable texts.

[luminaire.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess I just haven't had much to say to people recently.

Ha, you know I adore small unreadable text. XP (But that's really only because I suck at making text readable AND look good ._.). But I'm working on it!

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

I know ;)

I'm not very talkative lately either. *shrugs*

I look forward seeing more of your icons :)

[su-chan.livejournal.com]

Ops! I can't believe I wrote 98 comments here... I almost think I must apologize for spamming your lj ;D

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Are you kidding ? I crave comments, dear, I'm a huge attention whore ! *hugs* thank you for commenting so much on my journal ♥

[su-chan.livejournal.com]

Then here you have the 100th XDDD and more will soon come so get ready XD I thank for being my friend and always so nice :3

[ripedecay.livejournal.com]

106? It feels like more than that since it feels like I've known you for more than I probably have. Hee, it's good, though! ♥

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Lol yeah but for once, you're not the n°2 of a comments meme ;)

Well, it has been a year and a half. It does amaze me how quickly the time passes, I'm so glad for all the friends like you I made in the X fandom *snuggles*

[ripedecay.livejournal.com]

I know XD That was amusing last time, too.

*cuddles* I'm happy to know all the people I do. It's really great having such friendly and interesting people as friends :D

[dherblay.livejournal.com]

From last to number seventy-six in one fell swoop!

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Parvenu :p

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Top five! Woot!

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

Yay ! *glomps*

[generalblossom.livejournal.com]

I am the top commenter? Ouch that is sort of embarrassing, I do blab - and here I go at it again.

I know about feeling antisocial, I have been having days or weeks of it. Tiredness is a factor as is the fact that being around people takes energy from me rather than give it - somebody once explained to me the differences between extrovert and introvert, as in the Myers-Brigg, to me in those terms, I tend to come out borderline introvert-extrovert there, but I guess I am really an introvert. Socializing is fun, gives you ideas, but somehow it also takes energy, to think, to consider other´s feelings, to listen. Sending energy vibes your way, kisses

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

embarrassing ? I think it's sweet ^^ Especially since you always make very interesting and kind comments !

being around people takes energy from me rather than give it
Yes, I think that's exactly that ! Which is funny considering how outgoing and cheerful I can be around people, but well, like you I suppose I'm a borderline introvert

Thank you for the vibes ♥

Nowadays, all i want is a good book, an internet connection, food & tea and I'm happy.

(*shrugs*) There has hardly ever been a time when I have not agreed with that. If that's being antisocial, it sounds pretty good. I knew I wasn't the particularly social type when I was talking to some people once and said that I was tired because I'd been up too late the previous night, and they said "Was it a good party?" and I said "No, I was reading a book," and then they looked at me strangely. ^^;

I'm at #11 on comment statistics? Hmm, what can I say, your journal is interesting to read.

[etrangere.livejournal.com]

LOL yes, I've known this earlier too. But I meant, I like hanging out with people usually as well, I really do. But lately, going out, even for doing things I like like movie theater, shopping, whatever, with people I like have been feeling really annoying to me. Those days I'd rather go see a movie all alone, which I usually never do.

Thanks, heh. I really don't think it is though.
