Livejournal Questions

[lettered]

This actually has nothing to do with the recent drama.

I have a confession to make. I'm a genius. But I'm really tragically stupid also.


-how to put on a header. And why everyone can figure it out but me.
-what a DDoS attack is. Looked it up on Wikipedia. Still really don't understand.
-where everyone gets the equipment to do all the icons and everything they do. Seems to me that stuff costs a fortune.
-how to write short fanfic.
-who Rodney is.
-Henry Jenkins.
-GIP.
-how NOT to hotlink some images. I can do it if the image is in a format Photobucket will upload, otherwise I don't understand.
-how people keep up with their flists.
-how people keep up with stuff like which new cat macro is funniest.
-how anyone keeps up with anything.
-why seraphcelene can't be here RIGHT NOW, I dunno, making pie with me.
-how people find out people are talking about them when said people are not talking to them. It's not that I don't like gossip. It's that I don't understand it. I literally seem to have trouble paying attention to anything not aimed straight at me with a missile launcher.
-why I like Harry/Draco.
-flangst.
-how people not being able to post really isn't connected to the Great Strikethrough.
-how to play most online videos, or dl the equipment.
-birthdays.
-why I didn't find a plane ticket to NYC for an earlier day so I could watch DB with a2zmom.
-Spike.
-betas.
-most emoticons.
-who Jo is.
-what Due South is.

Ha, yeah, it was supposed to be ironic.

I don't understand what the term means, I don't understand what it is, I don't understand why people like it; I never heard of it before day before yesterday.

Is it angst about flan? *Should* we be angsting about flan?

[tkp.livejournal.com]

I angst about flan. I feel like I should like it, but I don't, and then I don't know how to tell people I don't like custards when they serve them.

Isn't flan a cooking skill? Dude, tamales are an intuitive skill I suck at.

[framfrim.livejournal.com]

I don't like to eat flan either, but you've gotta respect any food that involves a blowtorch in its preparation. Even a teeny-weeny blowtorch. Or is that creme brulee?

[frimfram.livejournal.com]

Oops, wrong journal - sorry.

[tkp.livejournal.com]

I think creme brulee is the blowtorch one. I do have a teeny weeny blow torch for making it, too. It's ...my favorite part of eating creme brulee. The eating is kinda meh, except for the torched sugar.

OMG you do not like flan????

I am. afraid I can no longer be your friend.

*weeps*

[tkp.livejournal.com]

I really don't like flan.

It had to happen some day, Kita.

*defriends*

[stoney321.livejournal.com]

I don't get comment notification and this WHOLE THING BLOWS UP.

YOU DO NOT LIKE FLAN? Is it because it's wanna-be creme brulee? Or is a caramel thing? Or is it a mooshy-texture thing, because I know a lot of texture eaters...

[tkp.livejournal.com]

I don't like creme brulee, either, except the top. I only eat home made creme brulee because then I can eat the top, add sugar, and blow torch the next layer.

Partly it is a carmel thing because I LOVE caramel. And my lovely caramel is adulterated by that other stuff.

Must be a texture thing. It's funny what you say about "texture eaters". I think that might be a reason I don't like lots of the foods I like. For instance I don't like anything custardy or moussey. But then I don't understand it when people say they don't like the textures of foods I DO like. My friends hate cocoanut for its texture, and I just cannot understand.

ZOMFG you defriended me for flan.

I now have to make a locked post talking about you. But don't worry! I will make sure to include one or two of your closest friends on the filter, because that is how you find out someone is talking about you on LJ. Passive agressive filtering. Or PAF.

[tkp.livejournal.com]

Really? Do people really do that shit?

What the fuck is up with some people? Why do they like flan?

[kita0610.livejournal.com]

Yes they do.

And I like flan because it is a food AND IT JIGGLES. Also, it does not, like some other jiggly foods I will not mention, contain horse toe nails.

[tkp.livejournal.com]

I needed to include people in the list of things I do not understand.

I don't like jiggly foods, I guess. I will eat jello but I'm bored by it.

horse toe nails? Mention, please.

My sister and my son are texture eaters. My son loves cold tomatoes when they are ripe. He will not ever eat a cooked tomato (or a dried one.) My sister will only eat things that crunch. She will NOT eat (drinking is different) anything that is soft and can't be crunched by her teeth. In other words, I am used to people having specifics with food, so I'm not surprised to hear you like the crunchy sugar (omg YUM) but not the smooshy cream.

Caramel - I'm going out on a limb and guessing you like toffee, too? ;)

[tkp.livejournal.com]

Toffee might be my favorite food. Apart from sandwiches. Was it you I gave that coffee toffee chocolate cake recipe to? Did you ever try it? I want to make it for you, Stoney.

I won't eat cooked tomatoes. Fresh ones are okay. Dried ones I love though. It's freaky.

Only crunchy foods cuts out a lot of food! Applesauce and oatmeal and ice cream! That must be really difficult.
