the rant of the icon-obsessed

square icons!

they're so very much more attractive that way.

not 50x100, not 62x40, not 80x90, but 100x100, 80x80, 50x50. i hope you're getting the picture. perhaps some of you are under the mistaken impression that icons taller than they are wide look good anyway.

note the use of the word 'mistaken.' in fact, in many friends page styles, non-square icons leave a highly unattractive uneven border around them. take pity on your friends' eyeballs.

next icon!rant: text: why less is more. if you're REALLY lucky i'll favor you with a treatise on the extremely limited virtues of bold serif fonts in neon colors.*

1. they show up.*
2. ...they show up.

*wait! that's not a virtue. well, nevermind then.

well of COURSE we talk! don't everybody?

oh, for heaven's sake.

lotrips faux pas to be avoided at all costs #1,600,042:

mentioning msa in casual conversation.

icon community faux pas #1 (for most common):

(which might not matter to anyone but the maintainer) failing to read the goddamned community guidelines first.

and apparently misspelling in an erosion of civil liberties community is not a faux pas. ask around about flaming; you'll find some 'honest' disagreement.

also, i'm being ignored. [christina]: i'm tired of this shit. [/christina]

edit: finished a double coat of stain-killing primer on the first chair to be resurrected. next on the list is gold metallic acrylic paint. dad wants me at his office. [singin in the rain] if we bring a little joy into your hum-drum lives, then we'll know ::fake smile:: that all our hard work ain't been in vain for nothin.' [/singin in the rain]

didn't mousse my hair because was planning to dye it brown with a remnant. decided is too light a shade of brown, so no. it's behaving quite oddly as a result.

how should you know when you've never been here before

ear: ::sharp twinge::

alright, alright. i'm going. the million dollar question: how amusing is it to dress up to photocopy in the library?

the $1,600,042.00 question: what the hell happened to my favorite pantz*?
