It's funny what people comment on and what they don't. I can guarantee getting a load of comments by mentioning race or American politics, and I'm pretty sure an entry along the lines of "Today I tried to compile something from CVS, but I couldn't get configure to see the damn GLX libraries" will pass by uncommented. Otherwise there doesn't seem to be a consistent pattern. Not that I care - I'm a terrible intellectual narcissist, but even I don't measure my self-worth by LJ comments - but it's kind of interesting seeing what will provoke responses. Strangely, my long, serious (heh) ethnographic piece on rhythmic gymnastics and self-defence seems to have gone unread, which is a shame since it's one of the few things I really would like feedback on. Go on, read it, it'll make you giggle. And it's got pictures, too!

Dammit! I really enjoyed the piece on rhythmic gymnastics etc., and thought about leaving a comment along the lines of, "That was really interesting, thanks!" But I didn't want to leave such inane feedback because, uh, I have an intellectual image to uphold. Or something.

But yeah. I don't have anything smart to say in response, but I did really like it.
