How can I make the friendspage shorter?

[valis2]

We're all so chatty now that HBP has shown up. I have to do something about it; it's skip 120 every day, where it used to be skip 60. So I've been thinking...how can I trim it? Well, defriending is the first thought. Except, I love my flist, and it's at a really good place right now, and I'd hate to cull anyone. Seriously. I have lots of fun artists, writers, and interesting people on the list. So then I started thinking...communities.

Honestly, if I see one more post on that essay comm or...is it hogwarts_grads or something...that sounds like...

Hi I just read all the books and I'm new here. I got a pony for my fifth birthday. I think that Snape is an animaegus. Isn't that guy who played Lupin in the Prisoner of Azkhaban movie great? I need lots of friends, friend me!

...I will go absolutely starkers.

So I think some community trimming is in order. I'll have to miss some essays, but they're usually rec'd by the newsletters anyway, so no big deal.

In other news, I had no net access for most of the day; my cable modem was laughing at me. It was annoying. Very glad it's back up, though, so I can finish figuring out everything I need to ship eBay-wise.

You'll go naked? That's... an interesting reaction. ;)

Don't make me disrobe, dude.

I like certain communities, especially writing comms, but some of the general comms I just can't handle. There was one called harrypotter or harrypotterfans and it seemed to be a collection of spawn all enthusiastically squeeing about hp and buying the books, and it set my teeth on edge. That one I defriended loooong ago. But some of the other comms are getting to be just as irritating to me and I've had to defriend them too.

I've just realized that I misspelled your LJ name on the handwritten entry. I didn't have access to a computer and was going on memory...sorry!

Was it harry_potter? That one used to pop up on friendsfriends all the time and I was always rolling my eyes at it. Then I learned how to remove communities from friendsfriends which... I dunno, I need to figure out filters, I think, because there are some communities that I'd like included when I'm absently browsing like that, y'know?

I'm on the handwritten entry! Yay! I completely missed that. You just missed the c, it's no big deal. It's my own fault for having random (to other people) letters at the end of my username.

I've never looked at friendsfriends before...it's hard enough to keep up with friends! :)

It's amazing how much gossip I managed to fit in that entry, huh?
