Aren't you fed-up with garbage, full-of-shit sites where nobody actually communicates, such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Twitter? Do you wish your old friends who've migrated to those sites would return to LiveJournal? The the_lj_revival community has been set up with that aim in mind, and you are invited to join it. If you are already on LiveJournal and still have a Facebook profile, and would like to see more people returning to LJ or setting up accounts here, we invite you to post a link to this community on your Facebook Timeline. If you would like to find out who is still using LiveJournal and make contact with those who are already here, you are invited to copy and paste the 'about me' questions on the profile page and post them with your answers to the community.

Okay. Need for validation. Write a 100 word max essay about yourself and why you want to join us. Please provide links to ratings communities that you have applied to as a joke. Extra points for making us laugh.
I should be in bed, but I'm not. I'm very, very sick, and I won't recover until the end of the break. Not fun. I'm going to a party at my boss's house tomorrow. My friends and I ate at Wendy's today. That was delicious, and it's cool, as long as you don't think about what goes into the food. My friend gave me a toonie. That was nice. Man, this sounds a lot like one of those lame Edge ads on the subway, where it always goes "I guess I'm on The Edge" at the end, and it asks, "NEED MORE!?" No, I don't fucking "need" more of your lame bullshit. Go jerk off.
Oh yes.. and please post those obligatory 3 photos for us to beat off to.


This last one is rather large.Collapse )

Proofery

Residue, rather, of an application I sent to gothroyalty (where collapsing is currently awaiting his rating).

They have me confused with another applicant who was doing a graduate in undergraduate or something. I love how they convince themselves of things without the necessary prodding.
Oh, also, I threw out the term "aristocrat" to illict great reactions. And boy, reacions there were!
In fact, they were so careful to keep their guises up, they retired to this community, their "boudoire" to discuss the matter further! Aren't they so gosh-darn Les Laisions Dangereux?

[for the record: no, I am not an aristocrat. Shucks. I know you're all shocked and surprised. I know, I know.. you'll get over it, though. I promise]

The longhanded version. Because although I'm typically awesome, I suck with HTML.

I deleted my original post beacuse I realized:
a) I actually posted real pictures (I couldn't find anything else that matched in uberness. Even pictures of Morticia Addams weren't nearly as uber as I am)
b) Do I really want to soil myself by being linked to that kind of community? Come on! I have a reputation to uphold!
