I clicked 'worry' but there will simultaneously be plenty to 'w00t' about. The lovely cool thing about the future is that there are so many macro-events in play, it is virtually impossible to know which will lead or hit the right places to become dominant, or for how long.

I love this poll!

[tinyjo.livejournal.com]

You're welcome :)

What do I do if I want to tick both? :-)

[tinyjo.livejournal.com]

You have to pick one - yay determinism!

I've got plenty to worry about for the future, but I'm mostly w00t about it. :)

[shepline.livejournal.com]

I opted for w00t even as this is my natural style and outlook on life, although just at the moment I'm feeling more like *worry*

Well maybe not worry, more sort of *concerned*

Incidentally, can you send me a link to the source code of your S2 style, so that I can compare it with mine and figure out how to get proper tag support and quick commenting working on my journal too?

w00t is better than moof

I only recently learned what w00t meant after looking quizically at it for some time. I think I've used it fifty in the last three days.

It's a great word, isn't it? I love saying it too.

I think the answer to this question depends entirely on how much money you have.

[tinyjo.livejournal.com]

To a certain extent. On a macro level though, I think for the future to work out good in the long run there has to be a certain amount of equalization. If that comes off, w00t for both sides. If not, I predict steadily increasing violence, which would be *worry* for both sides. On a more personal level, there's probably a correlation.

Have you read http://www.zenarchery.com/full-text-of-the-grim-meathook-future-thing yet?

I hadn't, so thanks for the pointer - it definitely strikes a chord.
