This just in: Bennet not dead and now 19

So I haven't updated in a while. Pesky tertiary education asked to be paid some attention and I've been doing end of year assignments. Sleepless nights, headaches and existential angst - and I'm paying for the priviledge.

( More on school, life, turning 19 and the first of many interesting facts about genocide that I have recently learned )

Livejournal you're scaring me

I was just checking out someones user pic page in an attempt to find credit for an icon I liked and discovered that you can now get an email notification if someone uploads a new icon to their user pic page.

Sure some people have excellent taste in icons but if you're just going to go get the same icons as them, you're hardly going to be original and the point of having icons is to personalise your posts.

In the words of Groove Armarda: "If everybody looked the same, we'd get tired of looking at each other."

I think it's just creepy and a waste of programming. Why can't they spend time on useful stuff like making it so that you can edit comments? I'm sure we'd all find that handy.
