The Ultimate Livejournal Meme (everyone is doing it)

1. Spend hours and hours tweaking the design of your journal. Join communities that "help" people with their designs and piss everyone off by asking questions that have been asked ten thousand times before and are clearly explained in the FAQ.
2. Copy 100 icons of characters from Buffy, Lost, 24, Friends, Battlestar Galactica or whatever TV show or movie you feel represents "the real you". Be sure not to include any actual pictures of yourself. Be sure to "steal" at least one icon from some psycho icon wanker who will complain to high heaven that you have somehow violated their copyright on an image actually owned by the TV/movie studio they ripped the image off of.
3. Indirectly whinge about how "people are mean" in such a way that one your friends thinks you are writing about them and removes you from their friends list. Do not - this is very important - do not actually speak to this person about it even if you see them every day in real life.
4. Make more posts about people sucking, only now use the person's first initial (e.g. "X really sucks." ) so that they know you are talking about them.
5. Discover how to make friends-only posts and make a really large "Friends Only" graphic and be sure to say that you are doing this because you are "tired of the drama". Only post meme results publicly.
6. Start joining communities:

• Start by joining a photography community and post 1000 pixel wide crappy cell-phone cam pictures of yourself in the mirror. Ask everyone to forgive your "crappy camera" and apologise that you haven't figured out how to use an lj-cut yet (even though it is clearly explained in the FAQ). Whine incessantly about having you art censored, freedom of speech, et al. when the moderator removes your post, call him a Nazi.
• Join a "better" photography community that does not "censor" your work. Get tired of having your friends page warped beyond all recognition and quit a week later.
• Join a "pin up" community where people will tell you how "hawt" you are despite the crappy camera. Secretly loathe everyone else in the community for not being as "hawt" as you.
• Discover rating communities. Get rejected from one and start your own. Stamp everyone because it is not nice to be exclusive. Get bored, join an icon making community that doesn't hate you from before and earn your ten-thousand pixels of fame (15 minutes is so last century).
