1) I used to really miss not being able to read LJ during the day because by the time I got home in the evening to read stuff, people had already commented and moved on. And now that I can read LJ during the day, there's been very little traffic and almost nothing that couldn't have waited until evening. Sod's Law, I hear you cackling....
2) If I see one more post on my flist from someone going "Oh woe, my paid account expires today, I'll miss the polls and the icons!", I am going to post a reply that says "You know damn well that by posting this, someone will stump up for paid time for you; if you're going to beg, at least admit it."
3) Goodness, am I the only person who reacts to crises by, y'know, dealing with them? We seem to be turning into a planet of people who can't cope unless they're on tranqs. I get being overwhelmed sometimes, I've been there, we all have. So take a step back, breathe, rant to a friend, whatever. But to flail and stick your head in the sand, rant on LJ about "OMGMYLIFEISSOHARD!" and hope it'll all go away every time you get an owie boo-boo? Get a backbone, puh-lease. (And I'm not talking about those with legitimate mental conditions, so put the burning torches and pitchforks down....)
4) In unrelated news, I'm getting remarkably intolerent in my old age :P
4a) I may possibly need more soothing tea....

But yes, the 'my paid account is up' pisses me the hell off.
WELL BUY ONE OR DEAL WITH IT OR DO WITHOUT.
