The Friday Five for 22 December 2023
These questions were written by your moderator anais_pf, who has been posting questions in this space consistently for more than ten years, on a completely volunteer basis.
1. Are you easily offended or upset by things other people post online?
2. How much does the order in which the Friday Five questions are presented here matter to you?
3. Have you ever made an effort to be inclusive, only to have someone complain that you were not being inclusive enough?
4. Are you having a happy holiday season?
5. Which holidays do you observe or celebrate?
Copy and paste to your own journal, then reply to this post with a link to your answers. If your journal is private or friends-only, you can post your full answers in the comments below.
If you'd like to suggest questions for a future Friday Five, then do so on DreamWidth or LiveJournal. Old sets that were used have been deleted, so we encourage you to suggest some more!

1. Are you easily offended or upset by things other people post online?
If it's something I am passionate about, yes. However, I do try to follow a simple rule of writing out a blistering, invective filled reply, reading it to my little pottery worry monk (as we don't have a cat at the minute, the monk listens as well as a cat does) then putting it aside overnight...
And then shredding it without posting.
2. How much does the order in which the Friday Five questions are presented here matter to you?
Not at all, I just enjoy answering them in whatever order they come (and quite often type the answers in a different order before posting anyway).
3. Have you ever made an effort to be inclusive, only to have someone complain that you were not being inclusive enough?
Not really. Maybe what I do is not important enough for people to complain about...
4. Are you having a happy holiday season?
Pretty happy, there are a few worries about family or friends (that happens as toy get older) or small niggles of everyday life... but things are peacefully going well all in all.
5. Which holidays do you observe or celebrate?
This time of year, Christmas (secular, as I'm agnostic), Boxing Day (my favourite) and New Year only.
