Discussion threads. Over the years I got into all kinds of obsessions, including, but not limited to: journal posting/stalking/commenting, story and poem writing/reading/commenting/reviewing (jeez that seems like ages ago), theme making (that was kindof completely ruined by the tiny avatars, but even so I still enjoy it on a smaller scale, for example, I've insisted on continuing to have black&white themes and I don't think I've had a non-black&white one since 2009, it's a nice thing to think about), the Confessions thread, WAYT, all the trends which went with those two, etc, but only discussion threads remained a constant. I dunno, a lot of people say that they're very intimidating, but I've always felt a lot more comfortable there than on OT threads like Confessions or WAYT. You don't have to know any of the other people posting, be an old member, 'Mibba famous' or have a lot of friends to be noticed in a discussion thread, all you have to do is say something interesting then be willing to discuss your opinions. It's very cool, I wish more people would post on discussion threads, they've mostly empty these days.
