Hey Sumi - I got a few comments on the most recent batch I uploaded from someone whose name I didn't recognize. They were fairly innocuous (though they were in uncapitalized netspeak, which is how I knew it wasn't a Buffista under a different name), but two of the comments were on bath pics (bubble bath - nothing visible below the waist) and it kind of skeeved me.
It won't stop me from posting guest-access links here (which is public but fairly self-limiting), but they won't be randomly winding up on Flickr's front page.
For example...
And one more!
[eta: And if someone who's not a Flickr member could let me know if the guest pass links allow commenting, that'd be great. Just curious.]
I friended you but via my yahoo name - shall I email that to you?
This is the dumbest question, Jessica, but how do I add you as a contact? I seem to be a technological defective person today.
Also, I have decided that I really, really, really need to stop saying things are "retarded". Are there any bad associations with "asinine' or "nincompoop" that I should know about.
Oh, my god, IT department, what did you DO?
And did you have to do it on a Monday morning?
I friended you but via my yahoo name - shall I email that to you?
No need - there's only the one request in there now, and if I squint I can tell it's your name.
Sophia, if you click on the arrow next to my name (or anyone's) a list should pop up with "Add as a contact" next to it.
Wow- I am really beginning to feel like my grandma trying to operate the VCR with all this newfangled technology! My Flickr name contains my board last name, if you don't know it is me!
Jessica reminds me, 99% of mac's pictures have always been friends and family only on flickr as I am a paranoid beast and there are some concerns from other countries of their adopted children being seen online prior to adoption. So if you want to friend me and can't find me, email me. Soon there will be video up.
Thanks, msbelle. I'll look for it later!
Also, I have decided that I really, really, really need to stop saying things are "retarded".
My students seem to have gotten the message and stopped saying things are "gay," but I'm still working on that one. I support your struggle!
Have been at work for 45 minutes. Apparently it is the apocalypse when I am gone. Want to kill supervisor because she wants to know why I haven't made progress on documentation. Probably because I don't have spare time to DO the documentation, boss? POSSIBLY.
Also, need to cut a coworker who is asking me questions I don't know the answer to, and, when I tell her to call the help desk that supports this particular software, she tells me that "computer people won't know the answer." O RLY? I THINK YOU'LL FIND THAT THEY WILL, MA'AM.
