Mar. 21st, 2005 04:15 pmIf I'm ranting on my LiveJournal, it's not aimed at anyone specific (with possible exception of highly visible public figures that I only know of, and don't personally know).
If I'm ranting, I'm also knowingly not taking into account other people's potential perspectives on the matter (if it were, it wouldn't be a rant according to my definition of 'rant').
Yeah. That.
(Incidentally, I will continue to attempt to remember to read/follow evites; they are just nearly certain to make me feel more or less how I felt in my previous post, at least as long as I'm thinking about them. I usually don't _say_ anything, but there was the most fascinating juxtaposition of having one arrive in my INBOX at the exact same time as answering an LJ poll on how I feel about them. I was already in a verbal mental state about them, so was in the right mindset to express my reaction to them, rather than simply have it and move on)
