I like friending memes! I sort of get why a lot of people don't, I mean, there's something very public about them, and sometimes you end up friending weirdos and you have to deal with them for a couple of months until the unspoken grace period ends. But. Friending is kind of an awkward process and I love how friending memes steamlines it, creates an appropriate environment for asking in a way friends only entries never quite manage. Also they are fun! And I have always met great people through them. Also I just like them. In any case, I don't know about your friends, but mine keep complaining to me about not having enough of this type of friend or that type of friend and... this is how we used to fix that kind of problem! And it's been a long time since I've seen one floating around my part of lj.

So I am not totally sure that the 72 people I have friended is enough to like... properly power a friending meme, especially since lj is quiet-ish lately. But prove me wrong! Go forth, fill things out, respond to things, and please tell your friends (because even though I have great friends who can see this I ALREADY HAVE THEM FRIENDED, what do I get out of this?). I don't have a pre-prepared code for advertising but... you can see the entry link, and you all know better how you want to advertise that I know anyway.

........I AM SUCH A BUM, sorry, please still do my meme! Even though I didn't make graphics. Or think of a title. OR DO ANYTHING BESIDES THINK OF QUESTIONS.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

Name, Age, Location: Erin, 29, Alberta Canada
Fandoms you're currently super into (or at least chatty about): The Vampire Diaries, The Secret Circle, Sons of Anarchy somewhat, Revenge, Doctor Who, Torchwood.
Old fandoms you will never be able to completely leave behind (the special ones, though, not your entire fandom history): Queer as Folk, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Supernatural.
Your three very favorite celebrities: Katie Cassidy, Mila Kunis and... Blake Lively?
1-3 song(s) you're super into at the moment: Acid Annie by Natalia Kills, Kill the Lights Rock Remix by Britney Spears, Earthquake by Little Boots
Hogwarts House you would fit best in: Probably Ravenclaw, I guess, although Pottermore sorted me into Gryffindor. So I don't know.
3-5 adjectives your mom/best friend/significant other/someone who loves you would use to describe you: opinionated, silly, aaannndddd.... maybe self-sufficient?
Describe the last 10 lj entries you've made in less than 3 sentences: LOTS of screencaps, real life talk, icon crossposts.
Things you like & do not like in lj friends: People who only post twitter feeds or memes. I like hearing about RL stuff, too, so I can hopefully get to know you better. But also fandom stuff. I think that's the level for initial contact and then we have a base to go off of. If it's ALL personal stuff I don't know if I'll know how to randomly comment. OH! And when people post those "Comment here to stay" entries. I will NEVER comment, sorry. YOU decide if you want to keep me. Same thing as defriending someone for not participating in a poll or something, especially over trivial things. Feelings, I has them.
Anything else you'd like to add? I'm trying to be a better LJ friend and poster, and this friending meme is part of me getting back into that!

Oh man, those "comment to stay posts" usually make me want to go ahead and defriend the person first, just out of spite. I think I've commented on one a total of once in my life.

I haven't come across any on my flist in a LONG time so either they've fallen out of vogue and I have an extreme hatred of them to this day or I just have awesome people on my flist who aren't stuck on needing constant validation. LOL

I checked out your comment and we have some common interests. Friends?

Hah, I'm sure it's a combination of both! I don't see them anymore, either, but I've also defriended a bunch of superfluous people over the years.

Sure, let's do it! I'll add you now.

I agree with your positions on those comment to stay bullshit things. And also, you watch Revenge and it is the thing I want to talk to the world about. Friends?

Yes yes! I totally need Revenge fans on my flist! I've really only heard people talking about it on Twitter!

i actually have to go RIGHT NOW but i expect to see FROLICKING IN THE COMMENTS when i get back >:(
