Why do people put themselves on their friends lists?

So many do this. I seriously don't understand why. Is it like trendy or something?

Random side note: FLCL or Furi Curi is cool. Too bad there's only 6 episodes.

Other than that, I don't fancy series that fancy themselves so 'deep' and 'artistic'. The whole series is basically one big inside joke for animators that 'we unenlightened' aren't supposed to get.

That was my big problem with most of Evangelion, particularly the final two episodes. But FLCL... there's a lot of in-jokes I don't get, and some of it is deliberately unexplainable for the sake of being unexplainable, but I think the themes are actually easier to follow than themes in Eva. Probably because FLCL is about growing up whereas Eva was neck-deep in Christian imagery and psychology that I really don't have the education to properly even attempt to understand. I think the reason I don't mind the obscurity of FLCL is that the show doesn't seem to really make any promises of explaining later and then pulling out on you. It just doesn't explain at all.

Then again, I haven't seen the last two episodes.
