Speaking as someone who occasionally does that…
First, sometimes it’s because I know it’s my own problem and there’s only one person who can help me, that is myself. Then why make a post? Because it’s better than having the pain to myself and letting it hurt me.
Second, friends know to reach me outside LJ. Phone, email, IM… You name it. LJ commenting isn’t the only mode of communication allowed for discussing whatever matter posted on LJ.
OMG Jeff thats a cry for help, I’m turning in your livejournal to the UCSC Housing peeps and they will get you counseling, KATHY COONEY PLEASE READ THIS JOURNAL!!!
UH OH! If I’d’ve disabled contents on this post then maybe no one would bother telling me that they’re going to warn the authorities and I’d be blissfully ignorant until the coppers knocked on my door and threw me in the nuthouse!
Hahaha, that was awesome. I hate that shit, I’m proud to say I’ve never disabled the comments on any of my entries.
Another classic is when people delete every other comment they don’t like.
That looks like one of those pictures that gets made by somebody just for some fun, then it gets passed all around the internet and posted on the walls in high school classrooms and finally ends up on collegehumor.com or something. Nice work.
haha

Right but it’s corny.
Doesn’t mean people have to stop it. 🙂
Image is very good.
Thanks I just found this “Cut” key lying around at the office one day. They make keyboards with those!
solaris keyboards suck.
The other day, I made our entire project crash by pressing the blank button near F1.
Hahahaha. That button rocks, I press it all the time.
I like filling it in with pencil.
“Fireball”
“Panic”
“Self Destruct”
etc
“Porn”
I’m stealing this pic thanks.
I thought you would.

You’re a good man, Jeffrey Faden.
I think the only use for disabling comments is if you link to a separate lj post, forcing them to comment there instead.
I sometimes do that when I’m writing just to clear my head and I don’t want other people’s comments/inputs to influence me.
