A Poll about Livejournal. ANSWER IT.

[slemslempike]

Am still waiting for feedback from the report in the way of what papers to write from Supervisor. One of the journals I was looking at charges contributors $65 per page for submissions - is this normal? The journal itself seems to be a respected one.

I had a good moan this morning with the office manager about everything but especially the crapness of this place and especially Supervisor, including attitudes towards gender. Then Nice RA came over and bought me mid-morning cake and drink because I forgot my wallet today.

I am quite bored. I don't want to play games (but if I DID, I bloody well WOULD, and only a slight sense of the ridiculous stops me from playing them even though I don't want to), so here is A Poll. No-one can see the answers except me, so you'd better be damn salacious in your responses.

I thought the crushes part of the last question was interesting, but potentially confusing. One can find a person's journal extremely interesting to read and worth commenting on regularly, and extract from that person's posts an idea of them as a person that one might like or wish to meet in real life, but that's a different thing to having a crush IMO.

One might of course also realise after sufficient perusal of their LJ that the other LJer in question is still interesting to read and reply to on a regular basis, but that one would definitely NOT wish to meet them in real life, let alone have a crush on them!

Such are the perils (and benefits) of human diversity.

Crush is for whatever people want it to mean - for some people it's a 'proper' crush (and I know several people who first met their partners online, and had a relationship that way before ever meeting in real life, some of whom are now in long term relationships) and for some it's just a handy term for the person on your flist who makes your heart leap everytime you see their icon and realise that you get to read a new post or comment.
