You know what makes me grin a little to myself? People online who make threats about making other people online's lives hell. I hate to emulate the kind of chat-speak I really don't like, but OGM ITZ INTERNETS. Seriously. I'm not saying that online doesn't mean anything as far as friends are concerned, because of course it does. Anyone who knows me will know that my closest friends are online, and my girlfriend who I've been with for 7 years was someone I met online. But... how the heck do you make someone's life hell over the internet? O.o
Okay, I'll admit I've had a few troublemakers give me grief over the years. I've had net-stalkers and trolls and you name it. I've had all kinds of trouble, but y'know... none of them ever made my life hell. You just... people don't have that power over the internet. As for the whole "I'm going to hunt you down" BS, that makes me laugh even more.
I would just like to say to anyone who thinks they're big and scary and cool for making silly threats like that: Get a life. Please.

Ooo, yay, let's talk about Jei behind her back! :P (Just kidding, Jei x.x Nuu spin-dash me to death...). Yeah, I think certain little things freak her out... I know she saw clips from The Exoricist that really spooked her. That movie didn't bother me at all. Yet movies with lower ratings (eg 15 as opposed to 18+) seem to freak me more. Guess it's because psychological stuff scares me a lot more than the upfront sort of gore.

THOSE are the things that literallly scare me for months at a time. Sheesh, sometimes the Ring still gives me the creeps at night.

Date: 2006-02-26 06:56 pm (UTC)Actually, I think what freaked Jei more was the fact that I saw The Ring with her, on DVD, while she was at my house... yet... I totally didn't remember her being here o.o I remember watching it with my mom and my brother in the room, but I totally don't recall her being there XD Even though she definitely was o.o
