elapses: (leave your boyfriend at home)

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

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.

I DO THIS ONLY BECAUSE I MET YOU IN A FRIENDING MEME

Name, Age, Location: Sarah, 23, Bostonish
Fandoms you're currently super into (or at least chatty about): Young Justice is my life as of maybe three days ago, Hawaii Five-0, Revenge, probably Bones when it comes back next month.
Old fandoms you will never be able to completely leave behind (the special ones, though, not your entire fandom history): Harry Potter, The Office, Alias, The OC, Everwood, HIMYM
Your three very favorite celebrities: Jennifer Garner, Ben Affleck, Jimmy Fallon
1-3 song(s) you're super into at the moment: What Doesn't Kill You (Stronger) - Kelly Clarkson, All Yr Songs - Diamond Ring
Hogwarts House you would fit best in: I always wanted Gryffindor, but Pottermore sorted me into Ravenclaw, and tbh they're probably right.
3-5 adjectives your mom/best friend/significant other/someone who loves you would use to describe you: Loud, lazy, funny.
Describe the last 10 lj entries you've made in less than 3 sentences: EVERYONE WATCH YOUNG JUSTICE AND THEN TALK TO ME ABOUT IT. Here are all the things I think about the TV I watch. Why are Delicious and my sister both incomprehensibly terrible?
Things you like & do not like in lj friends: If you watch some of the same shows as me and you post episode reactions regularly, then you are EXACTLY WHAT I WANT. [I should mention, though, that my Five-0 thoughts range from "THAT WAS AMAZING" to "that was not sufficiently amazing the end," I don't have it in me to be pissed off or outraged by it.] I DO NOT CARE what you had for breakfast unless it was pancakes. It drives me bonkers when people routinely post more than once a day, mainly because the posts don't tend to be substantial. I don't want to hear about how much you hate some show even though you still watch it and post about it every week - I'm much more interested in hearing your thoughts about things you really like, even if they're not fandoms I'm in. If I wanted to read constant criticism or irritated fandom meta, I'd still use Tumblr.
Anything else you'd like to add? OKAY I JUST NEED TO GET THIS OFF MY CHEST: My aunt and uncle were just visiting and they TOOK MY TOOTHPASTE WITH THEM WHEN THEY LEFT, and, like that's not bad enough, I went to the store to pick up a new tube and the packaging had been redesigned so I couldn't even IDENTIFY mine and without an old package to compare flavors and features or whatever, I just had to guess, AND I GUESSED WRONG AND THE NEW KIND TASTES AWFUL AND EVERYTHING IS RUINED FOREVER!!!!!!

Added you! HI!!!!!

You like Young Justice? I LIKE YOUNG JUSTICE!!! WHAT ARE THE CHANCES?? We should be friends.

PS. Truly sorry about the toothpaste fiasco. that is traumatic.

do you think "Learn To Fly" pumps him up or makes him want to hit things?

Seriously, WHO THINKS THE TOOTHPASTE IS COMPLIMENTARY? RUDE.

NOBODY IRL IS PROPERLY APPRECIATIVE OF MY TOOTHPASTE TRAUMA! I WANT MY MOTHER TO SIT ME DOWN AND EXTEND A VERY SERIOUS AND HEARTFELT APOLOGY FOR HER PART IN ALLOWING THIS TO HAPPEN TO ME! I texted my friend Liz to ask her if she still uses the same kind as she did two years ago when we discovered that we were TOOTHPASTE TWINS and also if she could send me a picture, MOSTLY I GUESS I'M JUST SCARED THAT MINE'S BEEN DISCONTINUED.

[SORRY, I DON'T WANT TO BE FRIENDS WITH YOU.]

Hi! I think I friended you before, because I've been commenting on your posts. So this is my official 'please friend me back' comment :)

And about the TOOTHPASTE DISASTER, the same thing happened to me, only it was my favorite peach scented lotion and my grandmother. I *still* haven't found it again in stores.

Added you!

You and your peach lotion have my deepest sympathy. THAT MUST HAVE BEEN [AND MUST STILL BE] TERRIBLE.

Hi. This is possibly a creepy start to this comment, but I've actually sort of been following your entries ever since I was linked to your limeybean'd post a few weeks ago and realized you were reviewing all the fall pilots (and your comment re: the Hawaii Five-0 s2 premiere in one of those posts led me to download the first few episodes of the show, to be watched after I am all caught up on The Good Wife and Breaking Bad), and I did the same thing a few months ago when you first re-opened fandom_tar. Anyways, I just really enjoy reading your entries and we've got a good amount of mutual friends and common shows, so friends?
