*bounce*

[deborah_c]

For some reason, this morning I'm feeling particularly happy and bouncy, which is a pleasant surprise. A nice visit (although being woken by the warning phone call was a little bit of a shock... panic panic panic for fifteen minutes!) from a friend (WIAFAIKNOLJ) who was over in Cambridge for the morning. Admittedly I did angst at her just a little bit, but I'm back to being bouncy now :-)

Anyway, since I haven't acted on any memes for, oh, at least 12 hours, here's one that leaves me feeling unaccountably even more bouncy, courtesy of nhw:

I am a member of 4 cliques of size 11

elise, meet robinbloke.
mrph, meet devalmont. :-)


The last time this one came around, I don't appear to have posted the results, probably because the biggest clique I was in was about four people. The concept of actually having lots of friends still feels rather wonderful, though :-)

Curiously, I'm not sure that one can define cliqueiness by how many people are in the clique; at some point one can hardly call it a clique (with the overtones of exclusivity and closedness) any more. Odd, really :-)

More just like that...

Me too - the same three. I was imagining the histories people would form a clique of 21 though. Who hasn't added whom, I wonder...

The top of the 3 cliques above isn't a histories clique - far too many non-histories people in it. The bottom 2 are entirely histories people, in fact they only differ by atreic and libellum, who should therefore add each other to make a clique of 19. The 2 remaining missing are the_lady_lily, who's been on my friends list since the start of my LJ, and strongtrousers who I've added just this minute, partly becasue I should have done it a few weeks back, and partly because forming a bigger clique is a perfectly sensible reason to add someone, of course. Um.

But isn't it cliquier to have just one clique?

It depends if the people not in common between them are prepared to be really snarky at each other, I think :)
