This is truth: I suck at dealing with nice comments on my fic. I kind of lose it internally - I call this my inner flail - and then can't reply without sounding like a complete moron. You'd think someone had just given me their kidney, crikey.

I'm just saying. I've had that experience a couple of times the past week.

Yeah, no, I have no idea where all this comment-related meta is springing from. INDULGE ME. It's a passing phase. Well. You'd best hope it's a passing phase, or you might open your flist to an essay on the subject.

Speaking of awkward: hi, friending memes! I've decided I want to expand my flist and [livejournal.com profile] denorios is hosting a flisting meme and good googlies, I AM A MORON. I. Guys. New Flisters: please to not be completely thrown by my inability to say hi in the way that most people would. Everyone else: if perchance I leave you a comment that is more unintelligible than usual (it occurs to me that unintelligible is something of an absolute, but run with me here) just ignore me. Don't feed the dragons; they singe.

It occurs to me that I should do and intro post of some variety, but really, who wants to read that. It would be superfluous in a lot of respects because all I do is talk about myself anyway. And when I'm not talking about myself, I'm being unnecessarily verbose in such a way that even if people ARE interested they've probably fallen asleep by the end.

This is the long way round of saying: haha, guess what I'll probably post next?

Little self-deprecation kick, apparently. Not a cry for reassurance, seriously. My language is just coming out that way right now.

For the love of leg warmers, Last.fm spam needs to be stopped. It is SO ANNOYING. It doesn't even introduce itself in an interesting fashion - I clicked on your invite and all I got was a lousy song. WHERE ARE THE PROMISES OF INCREASED DRILLABILITY?* HOW CAN I DRIVE HER TO THE MOON AND BEYOND WITH THIS SUB-PAR PROBING INTO MY SOCIAL NETWORK?

*) I shit thee not: that was an actual promise on one of the emails in my spam box.

I had something of worth to update with. No, really. Pfft.

The ice cream I ate apparently contained REAL Bailey's and wasn't just flavoured. Can you tell?

You've probably never seen one of my friending meme things (or ficathon requests), but given that they were always 3x longer than everyone else's, I kind of stopped bothering because I was just figuring that I looked like a loon :)

Haha, that sounds familiar. I don't know; maybe I have a flag next to my username. I can't help it; I get ~enthused~

Also: my NCIS DVDs were supposed to arrive today and they didn't. Not amused!

I feeling like warning people sometimes (in irl as well, especially with some of my exam teams) WARNING: SMILEY PERSON APPROACHING, PREPARE FOR SQUEE.

As I have mentioned in another comment, I am not much liking s2, although I am finding that I had seen most of the first half already.

Also, I forgot to put half of my fandoms in that friending meme, *facepalm*.

*waves* Hello!

I think it's really hard to answer fic comments too. I always seem to come off a bit like I'm saying 'You LIKE this? What's WRONG with you?!'. Or, yeah, the Donated Kidney Syndrome. I wish I could just say a simple 'thank you' and leave it at that, but oh no, I have to ramble on and on...

It's INSANE. Because you sort of sit there spending a lot of your time deciding what to say - and then I will maybe comment dump and eventually chicken out and NOT ANSWER AT ALL which is terribly guilt-inducing - and then you write it and delete it and re-write it and STILL it's like WALKING IN LOURDES. Oh gosh, thank you so much, I really appreciate it! But I DO IS THE POINT.

Hi there, this is possibly going to be a sticking point for some time.

It was rather good; the alcohol just took my bloodstream by surprise, lols.
