Sep. 26th, 2002 12:43 amWell, I was going to write a very long and detailed rant about HOW MUCH I HATE THE BLOODY TUBE STRIKES but I'm just too tired to bother. Here is a brief summary for Americans and other aliens: every few months London Underground and/or British Rail decide to cancel all services in hopes that by bringing chaos they will force the government to give their employees more money. The train drivers already make more than nurses and teachers, and STILL they are not satisfied, so they continue make life a total misery for Londoners. Hurrah.
I've been thinking alot about online personalities since reading![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
bluerhapsody's journal entry a few days ago. I've always said that my online persona is me, that I make no effort to change or disguise who I am -- what you see is what you get. And this is mostly true. Anyone who has met me will say that I am the same bubbly person in real life as I am online. There is one major difference between Online Me and the Real Me: Online Me is popular. You might not think this is a big difference, but to me, it really is. I've never been popular -- hell, I didn't even have a real friend until I was 17 -- so to have so many wonderful friends online makes me blissfully happy, I don't care that you might be 10 or 10,000 miles away, you are all special and make me feel like a worthy human being.
Now I think you all need to start a campain to enlighten the clueless masses to my magnificence, and get me as popular off the computer as I am online. *grins* (I'm thinking you should start small, leaflets perhaps...;-)
In other news, the new Buffy series premiered last night in the US. Not here though. *much pouting*
I did order the soundtrack to Once More, With Feeling (the musical Buffy episode), and should have it by friday. And I found out Anthony Stewart Head has his own album, woohooo! Mmmmmmmmmm Giles. *drool*
I know everyone is getting this for an answer, but it really is SO me. Especially the 'embraces the snarky as well as the epic' bit. Geeks rule! :D
What type of LotR fan are you?
