When social groups collide

[tinyjo]

I'm always vaguely unnerved when this happens although I don't know why really. It turns out that one of Fiona's friends who I've never met, but read on her friends list (zotz) also reads jinty - see. As I say, there is no particular reason for me to be surprised by this but I am.

Oh, and thank you very much jinty for telling me that permanent accounts were available again - I've had to go and buy one now! So, who wants the rest of my paid time?

>OK, now I'm actually slightly more unnerved!

That reminds me... isn't, err, diffrentcolours actually Ian and Ruth's housemate, the one whose ex turned out to be cleanskies's next door neighbour? Or something?

Mind you, I still think none of this compares with the moment when I was flipping casually through an issue of Bifrost in cleanskies's toilet and spotted in flagrante delicto with a snake (oh, so _that's_ what's up with her these days, etc...)

>and spotted in flagrante delicto with a snake

Originally there was a word between "spotted" and "in", carefully chosen so as to minimise the likelihood of it actually being useful in identifying the person concerned. LiveJournal's software appears, however, to have removed it. I feel I should respect this editorial decision.

Especially as I think it was a bug.

Yes - and I was very unnerved to find this out although I've got used to it now. I also had an odd experience when in Corpus bar waiting to be served, the two guys next to us (me and Alex) were talking about how to get their styles right and turned out to be LJers though I never got their usernames. It's like a virus you know :)
