Are they serious?!

It has been suggested by those wiser than I, that we should flag this post as many times as possible in order to show the futility, stupidity and over all annoyance our LJ Big Brother has caused us.

I'm nobody's mother, monitor your own fucking children!

Oh my god, your gratutious use of the word 'fucking' offends me, plus your offensive concepts that parents should be responsible for their own children! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE THINKING I SHOULD HAVE TO RAISE MY OWN CHILDREN! THAT IS CLEARLY THE JOB OF THE STATE AND EVERYBODY EXCEPT ME!

I saw the flags last night and was wondering what was up or if they'd always been there and I was just completely oblivious.

I'm personally not bothered by the implementation of this new feature but can see how it would be abused (an example being in your entry itself) and why others would be frustrated, angered, or annoyed. Livejournal really does seem intent on alienating its userbase.

I think it's a good compromise between following the laws of the US and letting LJers post whatever they want. The US laws are weird and I don't agree with them, but they're pretty harsh.

They are? My understanding is that we have much broader freedoms of speech than most any other country.

No, not really. Many European countries have less strict pornography laws.

Actually, after reading some explanations it seems like an OK compromise *if* they publish their promised policy about what is NC-17.To be flagged by others multiple accounts existing for more then a month, that have not false-flagged extensively earlier, must flag you- and that's just to get you into the "in" tray of an abuse team member.And even entries flagged "Explicit Adult" are simply invisible(if you an LJ-er listed as under 18) or require age verification of the "yes I am 18" version(if you're logged out).

V and Justice

V: Ah, I was forgetting that we are not properly introduced. I do not have a name. You can call me V. Madam Justice...this is V. V... this is Madam Justice. hello, Madam Justice.

Justice: Good evening, V.

V: There. Now we know each other. Actually, I've been a fan of yours for quite some time. Oh, I know what you're thinking...

Justice: The poor boy has a crush on me...an adolescent fatuation.

V: I beg your pardon, Madam. It isn't like that at all. I've long admired you...albeit only from a distance. I used to stare at you from the streets below when I was a child. I'd say to my father, "Who is that lady?" And he'd say "That's Madam Justice." And I'd say "Isn't she pretty."

V: Please don't think it was merely physical. I know you're not that sort of girl. No, I loved you as a person. As an ideal.

Justice: What? V! For shame! You have betrayed me for some harlot, some vain and pouting hussy with painted lips and a knowing smile!

V: I, Madam? I beg to differ! It was your infidelity that drove me to her arms!

V: Ah-ha! That surprised you, didn't it? You thought I didn't know about your little fling. But I do. I know everything! Frankly, I wasn't surprised when I found out. You always did have an eye for a man in uniform.

Justice: Uniform? Why I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about. It was always you, V. You were the only one...

V: Liar! Slut! Whore! Deny that you let him have his way with you, him with his armbands and jackboots!

V: Well? Cat got your tongue? I though as much.

V: Very well. So you stand revealed at last. you are no longer my justice. You are his justice now. You have bedded another.

Justice: Sob! Choke! Wh-who is she, V? What is her name?

V: Her name is Anarchy. And she has taught me more as a mistress than you ever did! She has taught me that justice is meaningless without freedom. She is honest. She makes no promises and breaks none. Unlike you, Jezebel. I used to wonder why you could never look me in the eye. Now I know. So good bye, dear lady. I would be saddened by our parting even now, save that you are no longer the woman I once loved.

*KABOOM!*
