Things which irritate me on LJ

[conuly]

1. People who center all their text. Do you have any idea how hard that is to read? Stop doing that. There's a reason text doesn't automatically center.
2. People who fuck with the font colors. If we wanted our font to be in a different color, we'd set it to do that on our friends pages, or within our browser's settings. Stop that. It's not cool, interesting, or worthwhile, it's just hard to read. Oh, and fucking with font sizes? Unless you have a very good reason for this (and it has to be a very good reason, mind) don't do it. It's stupid.
3. People who don't know basic or LJ-HTML, but instead of finding out how to do the HTML instead whine "I'm so sorry I can't do this right" when posting. Use your brain and read the fucking FAQ for a change.
4. Actually, that's it.

Gah, all three things in one half-hour. This must be my lucky day.

Oh, no, wait, I forgot chtspk. Yeah, that sucks. STOP IT.

Oh yes, and large images. WTF is wrong with you? Don't you see what that does to your own journal, and you have to inflict it on random strangers?

I have my font set to 8pt, and black. I have it set small so that I can fit a lot of text into one entry. I don't like having to use LJ cuts unless I absolutely have to.

Yeah, but that doesn't seem to carry over off your journal. There's a difference between setting a strange default font/text in your own journal and carefully typing in weird font sizes every time you update.

Ah, ok. I see now. I purposely set my font to black and 8pt in CSS code when I did the layout, but I did look, and it doesn't appear that way on anyone else's friends page. So that's a good thing.

I love little text, I find it so much easier to read. But I wouldn't dream of purposely making it small on comments, or so that it carried over to someone else journal, that's just obnoxious!
