Do you hate me? Do I drive you nuts? Do you only have me on your friends list so you can complain to your actual friends about what a whiner I am? Is a fic post from me just another opportunity to mock how much my writing sucks? A recent unfriending has me surprised and also tired of cliqueish LJ pettiness and...and...and just all the crap. If I bother you that much, please do unfriend me, sooner rather than later (i.e., now), and we'll all feel much better. Or, as less testy people have put it: unfriending amnesty time! No questions asked!

It's scary how closely this approximates a post I was contemplating just yesterday. With all the LJ politicking that goes on, I can honestly say there's not a single person on my list I don't like and want to be friendly with. But...I do know that feeling's not always mutual, and I know good and well why. I'm not a hypocrite, either. I'm perfectly able to put bad feelings behind me, or it I can't, how to remove those people from my list.
