What fun facts have you learned about your fellow Jellies?

Asked by adreamofautumn (3983points) March 22nd, 2009

NOTE let’s be considerate in answering this question. Stick to information that you can find in general threads or that is not harmful or hurtful to your fellow Jellies. We are a loving collective.

On that note: do you know if X “wears socks to bed” or Z “still eats cotton candy flavored chapstick”? What have the Jelly’s said in passing that really stuck out to you because it was too great to forget?

@breedmitch sigh i’m sorry. I fail. I usually search them before I post them and this time I didn’t. I apologize in advance to anyone that isn’t happy about the repeat. Honest mistake (I mean it’s 2:15 in the morning!!). :).

No worries. I like repeat questions. It gives me a chance to dredge up my old ones. :)

Whenever I try to anwer a question like this, I end up listing a lot of great people here on Fluther and also end up leaving out a lot of great people that deserve recognition also.

Discretion is the better part of valor and I like to err on the side of caution. With that in mind, I can safely say that everyone who I have interacted with on Fluther, at one time or another, has had a postive and memorable impact on me no matter how big or small that interaction was. You’re all very nice friends and I’m lucky to be a part of this community where I can share with all of you. I’ve learned much from my fellow Jellies in the collective and I’m grateful for it.

The thing that stands out for me was when I read the interview with @gailcalled and learned that she was 71. As a the typical 20-something internet junkie it’s really great that I can get a perspective from someone of a different generation when in real life I normally interact with everyone around the same age.

As silly as it sounds it kind of opened my eyes up to the idea that there are people of different ages on the internet and how the age gap on the internet affects what I read and see online. I think we all tend to assume everyone’s much like ourselves without information otherwise.

adreamofautumn's avatar

Whoa! Gailcalled is 71?! I was guessing at ages in my head recently and man I was way off on a number of people I think. I love the internet!

@breedmitch: If you’re wondering why Allie got more lurve, it’s because she didn’t snub asmonet. Hmpf.

No one knows anything about me! Mwaha!

Me either @MrMeltedCrayon, maybe we’re mysterious…

MrMeltedCrayon's avatar

We should form a club. The Jellyfish Club Of Extroadinarily Mysterious Peoples.

Angel_D's avatar

While I know very little about everyone because I’m new, this thread is good for letting newbies like me learn a little something about a lot of people. But I could be a contender for the the JCEMP if @MrMeltedCrayon creates the club!

artificialard's avatar
