Crush Meme Continued

Geez, it's not just a few people, it's a bunch of people with secret crushes on me! That's just weird. . .

( crush meme of doom )

I do feel it is underhanded to use this meme to make money off information which at no point was stated as having selling potential. I also feel it is potentially dangerous (I have visions of jealous SOs putting in their SO's LJ name, getting the names of the people who have crushes on them, and beating the snot out of them). It is a good object lesson in the business aspects of information flow (basically as a toll collector on the information flowpath), even with information that is normally seen as "gossip". Something else to add to that essay that I'll never write. . .

Crush Meme Continued, part II

First, the perfect responce to the meme can be found here (thanks go to onetwolittleb).

Second, I noticed that the gender indicator thingie has no effect on either the data recieved or any part of the readout. You'd think he'd do even some minor altering (like a color difference) so it's not so fucking obvious he's just collecting more data. My solution? Fuck with the data by entering yourself in as both genders, if you've already done it. Hell, you could do a DoS-style thing with it; it would be oddly approrpiate. . .
