Spotlighted Wank
Has anyone else noticed how quickly the "LJ Spotlighted Communities" become hotbeds of wank?
Let's see... Over in
autumn_and_fall,
asweettragedy decides to post up a pretty picture of some pumpkins, along with some glurge about how God made us all like jack-o-lanterns or something. I'm not entirely certain I understand it, but
shatterstripes sums it up as :
So being a Christian is like being an empty shell with a forced grin and no potential to grow anything new, who's left out to rot over the weeks after it's useful, and then thrown in the compost (if you're lucky; the trash is more likely) with cries of 'eeew'?
Sounds great! Sign me up!
I'd love to link you to
shatterstripes' actual comment, but it's now listed as "deleted comment". I happen to have it open in another window, should anyone want screencaps.
This, of course, leads to screaming of how "uncool" the OP is because she's deleting comments.
Or is she?
To echo
krushisabitch: Who would have thought there would be drama here?
Meanwhile, over on the other side of OMG serious business... We've got
historyisfun, this week's featured wankmagnet community, where
pirated_pie wants to know if we think our interest in history is because of our past lives. (Can I claim to have been Joan of Arc in a former life?)
feste_sylvan thinks this is dumb. This annoys
pirated_pie to the point where s/h/it loses the ability to use the "s" key and informes
feste_sylvan he's an "a**hole".
Which, as all things do, leads to Communism Wank.
