I note that I appear to be doing my normal trimming of my friends list ('normal' in that I seem to do it about twice a year). It's generally some combination of whether or not I tend to skim people, if their posts take too much energy from me to read, or if I've little to no sense of them (usually people who post rarely, if ever, and who I don't otherwise know). It's _not_ a reflection of my opinion of a person! (It is, however, a reflection of the fact that I tend to read too damn many people!)

You're a very good example.

I swear - enlightening, meaningful, insightful content is just around the corner for me. You don't wanna miss out. Plus more panda pictures... everyone can use those.

*snort*

ie, you are doing the same thing? :)

*laughing* Right.

Because, of course, you're likely to be dropped. ;)

*laughing* IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PANDA PICTURES!

Sort of maybe trying. :)

How... definitive of you!

It's hard! Besides not wanting to hurt feelings, there are so many people I find interesting, when I have time.

[identity profile] wispfox.livejournal.com 2005-10-06 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I get that.

Time-wise, I ought to have trimmed more than I did trim. But, well, the whole 'interesting when time' problem...

*nod* I use filters, but not everyone is comfy doing that. (I have a "Catch up after a vacation" filter, a "Read most of the time" filter, and "Everyone" for when I'm not busy.)

[identity profile] wispfox.livejournal.com 2005-10-07 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
My problem with using filters for regular reading - I do, when on vacation - is that I have problems where I get overwhelmed too easily when trying to read too much at once. So if I don't read everyone regularly, I'll never get to the ones I don't read regularly.

At that point, I see no point in doing that, so I don't, usually.

my friend [livejournal.com profile] radiobastet just did the same so it's amusing to me that you choose the same time. Do whatcha gotta do.

*grins*

Well, I tend to do it once in fall and once in spring. So it's not _that_ surprising. Although, I suppose if it was the same day, that makes sense!
