friends 'r' us meme

stolen from a bunch of people....

COMMENT HERE AND I WILL:
a) Tell you why I friended you.
b) Associate you with something -- a fandom, song, color, photo, etc.
c) Tell you something I like about you.
d) Tell you a memory I have of you.
e) Ask you something I've wanted to know about you
f) Tell you my favorite userpic from your list
g) In return, you need to post this on your own

As a side note, I should probably admit right off that my answer to 'why I friended you' will be the same to everyone- I never friend anyone until they've friended me.   I'm far too shy (yes, really) to randomly friend people.

*whines* aww but I wanted to be first!!!
*snicker*

Either version of me - I'm not fussy!

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
a) you friended me so I friended you back
b) Jack's *true* TW backstory
c) You're such a friendly and helpful person- and a great beta
d) How you jumped in when I asked if anyone could beta my "little" SGA/TW story. (It was only 3k at the time, the additional 9K were mostly due to your influence)
e) Did you do a lot of writing before getting involved in fanfic?
f) I'm torn between the *iz ded* kitty because he's so dang cute, and the singing in the rain ones because it's so cheery and you use them so often

Quit bothering each other! Do I need to turn this car around?

I'm an only child, so I'd always put myself in my favourite stories, which explains my Mary-Sue X-men fic that lurks in my fanfiction.net account. I wrote a little bit there, then joined a writing site before I found LJ. But I had a really bad experience with a mod there - nothing personally horrible, but just...not helpful on the writing-front, and kind of felt like someone had knocked the stuffing out of me. Fandom's a whole lot more supportive, as well as fun! I keep dabbling with the idea of going back to original writing, but I really did take a confidence knock and keep chickening out.

Woah. That's...probably more answer than you needed, sorry! *sheepish*

*chooses happy icon to make up for it*

The funny thing is, I don't either, and I honestly can't remember how we friended each other. I figure it must have had something to do with some commentfest or another, probably in Terry's journal. (This isn't a meme comment, by the way, just puzzling!)

[identity profile] jadesfire2808.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
We could though...

*pokes you*

*whistles innocently*

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 04:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, I probably did friend [livejournal.com profile] itsarift_thing, but I think of fic LJs as extensions of the person.. so you did friend me first...
b) You're 100% responsible for the "whistling" verse- so that
c) You're utterly evil with the way you get me thinking about story ideas
d) Seven's bear commentfic!!! God that was fun
e) Have you always lived in the UK? In just one place there, or many?
f) I most associate you with the it's a rift thing and walking doodle ones, but I love your 'magnificent' Master one

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
you friended me- I didn't realize I hadn't friended you back for awhile until you mentioned it (I'm kind of bad at friending back)
b) NCIS and TONY!love
c) You're all bouncy and supportive!
d) Some of the massive commentfests we've gotten into, especially about Tony
e) Do you ever have problems posting and reading in English?
f) I love the plot bunny ones you have

*pokes you back*
You started it!

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
It was nearly a year ago, so not remembering is okay, I'm just glad you did!

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm going to count to ten, and if you two don't behave....

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
fandom IS wonderfully supportive, isn't it? Sorry you had bad mod experience, but I'm glad you wound up at LJ as a result!

*giggles unrepentantly*

*begins to kick the back of mom's seat while looking the other way*

One.... Two....

[identity profile] rustydog.livejournal.com 2008-09-17 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, if I friended you first, you're in an elite group numbering... probably one, maybe two! But I'm glad too.

Always lived within about four miles of where I live now. Except, because my mum wasn't always in the best of health even when I was really young I got farmed out to relatives in Manchester until I went to boarding school when I was 11. Still came back for holidays and log weekends and stuff, though. It wasn't a bit like Harry Potter.

The bear was FUN!!

And I still think you friended MJ before I friended you...

Bad mod!

*looks for animal shapes in the clouds instead*

Oh yeah. For sure.

It's a shame, because I recommend writersdock without hesitation, but for me? I think I'd find it hard to go back now...
