Brain Weasel Stomping Day

[netmouse]

As cjdoyle first proposed, today is brain weasel stomping day! Many thanks to sarahmichigan for being the first to stomp some of my brain weasels!

Spread the word:

Wow - what is it in the air lately? Post after filtered post about how everyone is feeling alone, disconnected, unwanted. It's not like this is one or two people - it's like a rash all over my friends list the past few days. Male, female, betwixt, undecided, unconcerned...it seems to be an equal opportunity Brain Weasel Invasion.

Clearly, something needs to be done.

I think we need to have a Brain Weasel Stomping Day.

The problem, as I've noted before, is "it's easier to see the Weasels when they're eating someone else's brain."

So. This is my call to my friends list, and to your friends list, and beyond. This Friday, make an effort to squish someone's Brain Weasel.

Have a crush on someone? Post a flirty comment in their journal. Admire someone's skills? Post a comment about it. Just think a person is nifty? This Friday is the time to tell them.

Doesn't matter if the post you're commenting to doesn't have much to do with your comment. Just post those good thoughts. Trust me. People will appreciate it.

Do this for everyone - not just those you suspect are feeling down (After all, you might not be on their Brain Weasel filter). Take a few minutes and help launch people into the weekend with a smile.

And...who knows? Maybe sharing how others make you happy will make you a bit more cheerful in return.

It's worth a try.

Apropos of nothing... have I mentioned that I think you're nifty? Because I do. Just sayin'.

Just taking a moment to give you a big squooshy e-hug, just 'cause. You know. You're Good People. *huuuuug* :-)

I really admire your intelligence and your ability to connect to so many people on a bunch of different levels. I don't get to see you much, but when I do it is always a good thing. :)

One of the things that is nice about moving into the duplex over by Veteran's Park will be that visiting you will be within walking distance. (:

Love the icon. And you've always been an awesome hostess, spending time over your place has always been enjoying.

Aw, nifty's already been used... let's go for KEEN! I like hearing about you trying new things this year, it's a good reminder that there's always something more to do. :-)

It was really spiffy to see you yesterday. Thanks for stopping by.
But quit abusing the poor weasels!

"No one eats at that restaurant any more. It's too crowded." - Yogi Berra or a Madison Avenue ad man pretending to be Yogi Berra

That quote makes me think of you being so popular that no one is around when you need someone.

For the record, anyone who thinks you are unapproachable or that you are already too swarmed to want any more attention is missing out. I knew that before I met you, just from hearing the way rikhei talked about you, and I was sure of it by the end of Rennie's birthday party.

We need another Brain Weasel stomping day, so I can flirt with the people I want to flirt with! How come I had to miss it!? Stupid power being out!
