Things I love about LJ

[chickenfeet]

Here are two examples of how LJ is rather fun and weird in its own way.

frankie_ecap asks for advice on statistics text books for the social sciences and sparks the mathematicians into a philosophical feeding frenzy about issues which most social scientists never think about and probably wouldn't care about if they did. Unfortunately this one is flocked.

chiller makes an off hand remark about table manners and sets off a great long discussion about how to eat peas with a fork and other social niceties.

Both these things amuse me greatly.

It is quite a lot of fun, isn't it? Occasionally, I wonder how much more impoverished my life would be without LJ to amuse me.

Hey, nothing on my LJ is ever flocked.

It's kind of a trademark of mine. Let it all hang out ...

My apologies. Editing shall follow forthwith.

The interesting thing for me, of course, is that (a) my undergrad is in mathematics and, (b) despite this I have no clue what y'all are on about.
