Oh, and it's apparently LJ Amnesty Day...

[ayoub]

Today is Live Journal Amnesty Day.

Many people have a lot of friends on their list. Some they like, some they know in real life, some they never read, some they added in haste and feel too guilty to remove themselves.
Well worry no more. I am declaring today as a de-friending amnesty day.

If you added me to your friends list and you never read what I write or don't like what I write or just don't want my often pointless and generalising ramblings cluttering up your friends pages any more, today is the day to unfriend me. Do it. Go ahead, don't feel bad about it. I promise that I won't bear a grudge, that's what Live Journal Amnesty Day is all about. I'm sure that everyone has names on their friends list that they haven't the heart to get rid of because they're harmless really, but you just don't read what they write any more. Don't worry about it if I am that person in your list, you don't need to comment, you don't need to explain why - just unfriend me, that's the point of today.

If you want to extend this offer to people on your friends list, copy and paste this into your own journal.

From amante_donne...

I would like to believe though that every day is an amnesty day on my LJ... Just sayin' :D

There is only one problem with a post like that. If someone doesn't read your journal, but just skips the entries before moving on to those entries they do read, they aren't going to read that this is their get out of jail free card

Those of us that do read this are the ones that have no intention of going anywhere.

:D

Indeed... But you never know :D

[bluesgirly.livejournal.com]

NEVER! Out of the question.

I love my ayoub.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

I love you too! :D

[padiwack.livejournal.com]

You're stuck with Padiwack! Very hard to get rid of or run off! :-)

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Cool! :D

[pi-girl.livejournal.com]

Where does it say it is LJ Amnesty Day?

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

A friend said it was... :D

[popfiend.livejournal.com]

I've posted about this before.

EVERY DAY is that for my LJ.

It's not a prison.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Indeed! :D

[glowy-lovers.livejournal.com]

You don't get away that easily :)

Thanks for posting this - not that I'm going anywhere but I reposted it...

I've got many silent friends and I'm never sure why they stay.

Plus, I love to have an excuse to use this icon!

[crushdmb.livejournal.com]

maybe they read but just do not comment. i think it's unfair to expect people to comment and to assume they don't read if they aren't big on commenting.

What are you smoking?

[rosered3017.livejournal.com]

I am not going ANYWHERE.

*hugs you*

Good!

I'm going to steal this post and repost it in my journal. Give my thanks to your friend amante_donne for coming up with this "Livejournal Amnesty Day" idea! :) PS. I like you too much. I will never unfriend you. :)

*hugs you tight*

[evergladesqueen.livejournal.com]

Ain't going nowhere!

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

Yay!

Count me in.

Two Christmases ago, I invited anyone to delete me if they didn't want me as a friend on LiveJournal, Bebo, Facebook &c. Yet I also made it clear that if anyone took up my offer, it would count as a symbolic gesture and they shouldn't try to get in touch in the future. Only one person ever did, and they won't be missed. Here's the entry (http://knaw-says.livejournal.com/80810.html).

Generally, I only clear LiveJournal friends out when they haven't updated for more than fifty-two weeks. Strangely enough, I was going to check that this week anyway.

Re: Count me in.

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

I tend to just leave people on...

And that's a good idea... :)

[macpurp.livejournal.com]

I don't often post on LJ, but read others post and often comment on them...I don't have many friends on LJ....oh sad dose that make me sound! LOL

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

Hope you're having a wonderful day : )

And even if I did - I bet no one would ever notice anyway.

Good!

I'd hate to lose you!

♥

[patchworld.livejournal.com]

I like your posts, though frankly speaking, I don't always have time to read all of them. I like your questions of the day!

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

Thank you!

[castlelady.livejournal.com]

Every day is amnesty day on my journal, even though I'm usually the one with the trigger finger :P

[ayoub.livejournal.com]

:D

I hope you never have to point it towards me :D

Somehow,...

[mikesmaddie.livejournal.com]

...I think t-shirts should be made up for this.

And can you see the lj.com gift shop selling them?

Hee hee.

As Bugs Bunny would say, "I'm such a stinker."

*BG*

Oh, and I'm not leaving your journal's friends list. *VBG*

Hugs. *HG*

God bless and take care. :).
