	Liking: - the fact that they consider a bog-standard email survey along the lines of "what's your shoe size" to be "a glimpse of you on the inside" - how "slashpretty" parses in my mildly nerdish mind, i.e. < /pretty > Otherwise my eyes glazed over. But extremely navel-gazing comms/journals/etc. tend to do that to me. (Reply to this)

	...Is it bad that I'm considering making a "slashdorky" parody community and basically copying everything about it just to make fun of them? God. I'm so bored I'm contemplating going to all that work just to try to irk them. (Reply to this)

	Wow, when I saw the name of the community, I thought, "do they decided if your favorite slash couple is pretty enough for their standards?" Would be way more interesting than the other nonuglies rips. (Reply to this)(Thread)

That was my first thought, too, plus something like, "Wow, y'know, a community where people can vote on which bizarre slash pairing is prettiest could actually be kinda fun."

But then, of course, I actually looked at the community, and realized it was just stupid, and didn't even have anything to do with slash insofar as I could tell. I wonder why they used that particular name?

	The best is how they claim to be based on looks and personality, and then measure your personality on this completely whacked-out survey. Also, they all request proper spelling and grammar, yet one of their survey questions is "tattoo's." Yes, I am a freak for noticing. But geh. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Is it bad that I want to apply, just to write that out as: Tattoo's? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I want to apply just for laughs. But that would definately be something I emphasized. In my response to the question. "That's not really a question. Is it fill in the blank? Tattoo's uncle? Is that like a monkey's uncle?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Wow, that has to be the wankiest community ever. I feel the need to go away and make a 'Dude, take the cork out of your ass' icon just for them. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Heh, I used to work in a lab, dissecting intestinal nematodes and I can safely say I never called them pretty. I like the icon though. Reminds me of a hastily-crushed plot bunny I had, where Harry was a squid animagus and made wild tentacled leurve to the thing in the lake... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	What the... Why "slash"? This has nothing to do with slash! Stupid false advertising... Wanders off to find pretty slash. (Reply to this)
