Are you friends with yourself?

[norwich36]

This particular poll of randomosity was inspired (a) by toadstoolsmiles magnificent confidence in her own self-love (if you don't know what I'm talking about, go here and here) and (b) looking up a couple people's profiles today and noticing they had themselves friended.


[Poll #1043523]

And if you would friend yourself, assuming you were a different person friending the person you are now, why would you friend yourself? Please take this as an excuse to talk about how cool you are in the comments.

Self-praise: it's the next best thing to sex with your own clone!

I friend myself as myself (at least I think I have in this journal, I definitely have in my RL one) because I've got my bookmarks on the friends page and everything is all right there. Also, I like looking at my icon when I re-read my own entries. I've got a journal on GJ for a Roleplaying site and you need the icons to even tell who's writing the post (well, you can usually tell, but it's first person and easier to tell with the icon).

I would friend myself as somebody else because I don't write much and when I do, I'm usually announcing a story update (or answering a quiz, and those are fun, too).

Oh, sure, that makes sense (though I see all that stuff on my "recent entries" page, too).
