Questions Post #12, Vid Recs?


1. There's a gray bar at the top of my journal and everywhere I go in lj land that has a tiny pic of my icon, and stuff like "post to journal" "view friends page". Was that always there?
2. When you're about to post to your journal, so you use that gray bar, do you just call up semagic, do you go to your user info page and go to "Journal" and then "update"?
3. If you have your journal bookmarked, what is bookmarked--the "recent entries" page?
4. Do you sometimes suspect that everyone has easier ways of navigating their journals than you?
5. Do you reply to thing on your flist the first time you see the posts? Or do you mark them or remember them and go back to them? Or do you just not reply to a couple of people for a while, then all the sudden click on their names and reply to like 5 posts of theirs at once?
6. Do you still have comments from over a month ago to which you mean to reply?
7. Do you feel bad when you don't answer someone's comment to a post you've done?
8. Do you get bunnies for icons every once in a while the way you do for fic?
9. Do you ever feel like everyone is going faster than you somehow?
10. Do you have ideas for posts and half-written posts sitting around--kinda like fic?
11. Does anyone else feel weird IM'ing someone you know on lj but never talked to on IM before?
12. Does anyone else have trouble logging OFF IM once they've logged on because there are too many people they haven't talked to?
13. Is anyone else so one track minded that they can't do anything else or talk to anyone else once they're talking to one person on IM? I can't multi-task. At ALL. And when I try I just get all slow and agitated.
14. Does anyone else get itchy about their bio info? Like you'd really like to put something interesting there but can't think of anything?





Quintessential Vid Recs

So, I had these dl'ing problems and these soundcard problems and all kinds of other computer problems, but now those problems are gone. Except for the fact that I'm technologically illiterate and will never know what I am doing when it comes to these things. The point of the sad story is that I've never really watched fanvids before, and now I can. So, I'm wondering: What are your quintessential vid recs? What's the one that you think everyone should see, either because everyone talks about it the most, or because you love it the best? What's the defining fanvid of your 'ship, your character, your moment of truth? What's your canon fanon, vid-style? If you can, link please, because I suck at the whole . . . finding things.

1. No it wasn't always there
2.Eh I use it about half and half, when I remember it's there I use it but sometimes it's effin annoying. It needs a little button that lets you get directly to user info
3. Yeah recent entries is bookmarked
4. definitely sometimes
5. eh I try to reply within a decent amount of time but lots of times I end up replying to everyone all at once. I keep the lj notification email in my inbox until I reply if I have intentions of replying to remind me that so and so said something to me. As far as my flist goes, I comment when I see it if at all possible because my memory isn't that good to remember so and so had something I really wanted to comment on.
6. Yes *hides* and sadly it's feedback for a fic I posted. I suck at repping to feedback.
7. Yup
8. Yeah or skimming my flist I see something and think ooo I could do this or that for this char or that.
9. God yes
10. In my brain, which is why most of them don't get written. They live my brain or my brain gets occupied with other things. I should write this stuff down.
11. Yes! I'm always afraid they won't think I'm cool.
12. errr not really. Most of my IM list I don't talk to really regularly. They're there so I can ask rpg questions or something of the sort. We're aquaintances more than friends. Now my friends on IM (Lj friends or otherwise) I do feel like I need to at least say HEY before logging off IM.
13. Oh I multi task really well. I'm a mom so I sorta have to or nothing would ever get done. Plus I think I have ADD. I totally can't pay attention to just one thing. Even when I watch movies in a theater my brain is going haywire.
14. YES! And you know those help me fill out my user info meme's, I never do them 'cause I'm afraid no one will have anything interesting to say about me and then I'll just feel not cool.


Vids: I don't have many that I watch or just adore but this one makes me laugh no matter how many times I watch it. Warning, it is B/A friendly and anti C/A but amusing.
