Green Room - Week 5 - Day 5

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

It's nice to be here today through the series of interconnected tubes and lifts that power the so-called "internet connection" that brings us all together so we can post pictures of our favorite cartoon characters.

Which of course brings change.

Giant Tubes + cartoons = a sudden awareness of great social ills and solutions on how to fix them!

Excellent.

Um. . . what do you mean that's not it?

Man. OK - if you know so much, YOU tell me about.

Internets - How does it work?

***

The only thing that I do know for sure is that there is a poll going on - http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/396159.html and the results of that poll will change the fate of mankind as we know it!! (Either that or decide who is making it into Week 6, I get those two confused sometimes!)

So make sure to vote so that large land masses don't tumble into the sea and/or you're favorites end up going home, which amounts to pretty much the same thing.

I almost forgot the most important thing: Welcome to the World Owen Michael Idol chicky! (I assume that's his last name too. :P

Comments

I want to admit something: these past couple of weeks I haven't been moved to comment as much as I'd like. I'll read, and react at least to the level of "Yeah I'll vote for that"/"No I won't vote for that," but I keep having trouble thinking of comments. I'm trying to be better about that, though. And at going into the Green Rooms, where I haven't been as much.

We can always do this game better...

Happens to me every year. I feel like I have nothing to contribute, so I don't say anything....then I feel like a douche for never commenting. *LAUGH*

This is something I've learned after my multiple seasons.....people DO like to simply know you've read it and liked it. It feels good when you realize peopl actually read what you write...AND THEN COME BACK AGAIN! :)

I agree. It's nice to know you read and liked it, even if you don't have anything substantial to add. People seem to like that sort of thing. It's nice to know people enjoyed what you wrote!

*nods* knowing that someone appreciates what you've written is nice *smiles*

Everybody appreciates comments - mine aren't always the most original, sometimes just a "Great job, I really liked this" sort of thing, but at least it lets people know that you were there and appreciated their entry.

And welcome to the GR, we're glad you're here!

I read a lot more than I comment, too. I often can't think of something to say that hasn't already been said, and I don't want to sound as if I didn't really read the entry...I've noticed that a lot of comments don't sound like the commenter read the entry, and I don't want to be that person!

I need to do the green room more too!

[vaguelyclear.livejournal.com]

Yes, this.

I read more than I comment (and I vote for more than I comment on), too. Sometimes, my immediate response is to leave a comment, but other times, even though I may think it's a great entry, nothing comes to mind that I want to say, and like you, I don't want to sound like I didn't actually read it.

Commenting is tricky business.
