it's weird, is all.

Hey, are any of you guys getting the thing where when you look at your user info, you suddenly have random extra interests listed there? And then when you look back, they're gone again?



I even conveniently circled all the "wtf i never said that!" bits. Heh.

if i'm getting any extras i haven't noticed. but i think i keep holding steady at my 90 interests -- none of this "9 interests not shown" business. what's -that- about?

[identity profile] pearl-o.livejournal.com 2006-05-23 04:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, the interests not shown thing is the first sign something is wrong, yo. I have 150 interests normally, which is the LIMIT. They don't let you add more than that! So apparently when they add more than that ... it goes off screen?

it's the first step towards anarchy.

You know, when I think of you, I always think of your affinity for Bushisms. And alto sax. IT'S SO YOU.

Dude, the first time I noticed it, it had added "Remus Lupin" and "the Marquis de Sade", which is even better.

I'm jealous, actually! I want it to add crazy things to my interests! And then I'll just add them myself! *g*

Okay, you know there's fic in that, right? Not fic I particularly want to read, but... HP fandom being what it is...

And I thought 150 was the limit on interests...

I love the interests that ARE proudly yours. Hee.

And, yeah, it's the "interests not shown" thing that baffles me. BAFFLES I SAY.

They can't sneak anything past you if you only have two interests!

I am *totally* sneaky! Like a ninja!

I had to go look, and OMG, I am in love with (and share) both your interests.

[identity profile] mimesere.livejournal.com 2006-05-24 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
Heeee. They are awesome interests, aren't they?

I was forced into interestiness! I went *years* without any of them and then you worked your wiles, you...wily person! and now *sob* I am no longer an interest virgin!

How can you not love fire? I think you should add fire as one of your interests, thereby solving two problems at once.

[identity profile] pearl-o.livejournal.com 2006-05-23 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Heeeeeeee. Fire is actually, like, my one crazy insane phobia, which makes its appearance more amusing.

I believe you about the weird appearing interests, but just generally speaking, I'll need more than a screencap to prove you're not crazy. *g*

[identity profile] pearl-o.livejournal.com 2006-05-23 07:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, you're a funny lady. Really.

[identity profile] speshope.livejournal.com 2006-05-23 05:35 pm (UTC)(link)
... I really don't pay that much attention to my interests. You're special.

I do however have a problem that I can't prove via screencap, so there's no way to say I'm not crazy when my cursor keeps jumping back four words while I'm typing.

[identity profile] pearl-o.livejournal.com 2006-05-23 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Problems you can't demonstrate through screencaps are even MORE annoying.

[identity profile] speshope.livejournal.com 2006-05-23 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
So much more! Though now I do keep checking my interests to see if something random pops up.

The kind people at LJ probably looked at "Hope/Curtis" and "Brilliant Hetcest" and figured you wouldn't mind bizarre interests on your list.

[identity profile] claire.livejournal.com 2006-05-23 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
It's happened to a few other people I've heard of. Probably gremlins in the LJ system ;)
