Reading through people's old entries when I've recently added them makes me feel like a stalker.

I do it anyway.

I even reply, if I feel so moved. Perhaps because I feel a need to demonstrate my stalker tendancies?

Hi. I'm an LJ stalker. Apparently I am also an addictive substance.

The problem, of course, is that I have this insatiable need to dive into the brains of people I think are neat. And people's past posts are a form of doing that. And I'm horribly nosy.

I'll chime in on the side of "that's not stalker-y". I like to read old lj posts, too! But I rarely have the time/patience to go through someone's entire journal, so I'll just skip around.

I feel more stalkery when I spend a while Googling someone or looking for old Usenet posts under their name or handle.

Oh, certainly. I don't think there is _anyone_, except possibly if they hardly ever post, whose journal I've seen all of.

Also, I'm enjoying the mental picture of you skipping around. :)

Well, this, too - but I do it far less frequently. :)
