sticky post, but not friends only

[meganbmoore]

 

This journal? It's only "friends only" once in a blue moon. Pretty much if I just talk about personal stuff. I'm not overly picky about who reads most of my stuff...if you don't like my opinions, you don't have to read my LJ, and I see little reason to keep myself from making new friends on the off chance someone will leave a nasty comment because they don't like my opinion. I do, however, like knowing when I get friended, or when someone wanders in from a mutual friend or community. I'm always up for another person to squee over something with, or to have a debate with, as long as it's a respectful debate that keeps a person and their opinions separate. (In other words, if I loathe a character you adore, or I adore a character you think is wretched scum and should die, that's cool, just keep in mind that liking or disliking that character is one of several thousand qualities and opinions each of us has.)

My interests range from classic movies to urban fantasy, to mysteries, to us comics, to fantasy, to anime and manga, to 18th-19th century british romances, to asian live action dramas and more...essentially, if it interests me, I'll probably check it out, and I'll probably post on it.

The posts themselves range from two or three line comments to pages of squeeing and meta or massive(or smaller) posts of picspams and youtube vids.

Mosts of my posts are about whatever I'm into at the moment-of late, primarily-but not exclusively-anime, manga, YA and adult fantasy, fiction in different genres set circa 1800-1940s, and live action asian dramas.

As a fair warning, while it is typically plot, humor or action that will draw me to something, if there's a canon pairing I like, then 9 times out of 10, that's what I'll end up talking about the most. On the flipside, if it's all about the angst, romantic or otherwise, with the plot as an excuse, then it'll probably put me to sleep.

Just outta idle curiosity. I see you friended me on the F_S friending meme. What was it that piqued your interest?

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! I did that maybe 15 minutes ago, so hadn't commented yet.

Mostly Gen X, Deadpool and Gargoyles(though I see you also have Darkness in your interests.)

[jencatd.livejournal.com]

Hi, commenting to let you know I've friended you back. Yay, another CLAMP fan! :)

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi!

Newly minted Clamp fan! Currently slowly working my way through their mass of titles.

[ryanitenebrae.livejournal.com]

Greetings!
I have friended you - I did so because we have many things in common, and a mutual friend. Also, I think you're a very interesting person, and that your journal is fun to read. Nice to meet you!

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Cool! I'll probably friend you back sometime today.

[mierin-sama.livejournal.com]

Hello there! Did you friended me from the TRC friending meme? Guess you'll have another Clamp fan on your friends' list :P

By the way, that has got to be the most extensive tags list I had ever seen for an individual LJ. I like to read as well, although I think I haven't read as much as you do.

And nice to meet you! Thanks for adding me!

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! Yes. About 15 minutes ago, so I hadn't commented yet.

I'm an obsessive tagger and an obsessive reader. (Thogh the tagging system is currently stalled out mid-remodelling...getting all the authors under "a: name" and all the anime and manga stuff and "anime:" "manga:" and "manga/anime:"

[ms-treesap.livejournal.com]

Hello :D I've just been reading loads of your book/anime/manga reviews, and friended you to keep up with them or anything else you have to say. (No need to friend back- I'm not very interesting).

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! That's fine.

Though I'll probably just friend you back anyway, if we have a few things in common.

[crystal-hoser.livejournal.com]

Hey, we talked a bit on the obscure fandoms meme and you have a lot of neat review on your journal so I friended you. Hope you don't mind!

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! That's fine.

[badtzphoto.livejournal.com]

Hi, I'm friending you to read more about High School Debut and Wild Ones and other reviews and squeeing, I hope you don't mind. No need to friend me back :)

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi!

That's fine. (Though I likely will friend you back anyway...)

[chaos-harmony.livejournal.com]

My interests range from classic movies to urban fantasy, to mysteries, to us comics, to fantasy, to anime and manga, to 18th-19th century british romances, to asian live action dramas and more.

Well, whaddaya know, I like all of these things too. I hope you don't mind my friending you (at the risk of sounding like a total Internet!stalker, I found you via annwyd's journal, and your icon caught my eye - is that from the cover of Ombria in Shadow? I loved that book.)

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi!

And yup, it is. I discovered McKillip earlier this year and have been working my way through her backlog, though mostly her stuff from the last 10 years or so. Ombria in Shadow is one of my three favorites so far, if not my favorite. The other 2 are In the Forests of Serre and Od Magic.

[radarsparks.livejournal.com]

pretty sure i saw you around the redux of the small fandoms meme and the one(well, technically two) that came before it so i'm gonna go ahead and assume that's where you found me, too. |D you seem pretty neat, so i'm gonna add you back. 8D

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Heh. Yeah, I think we commented in the same threads. Every time. *is blinded by all the friending memes*

[abimoe.livejournal.com]

Hello...I found you on the Princess Tutu friending meme...which was so old I didn't want to comment there. I like your content and it seems like we have similar kinds of interests (especially YA fantasy, it is teh awesome), and I thought I would give you a head's up that I was friending you.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! That's fine.

[sexynun.livejournal.com]

Hello! I saw you on the Small fandoms Meme, Is it okay if I friend you?

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! That's just fine.

[keilexandra]

Curious to know why/how you found me; regardless, I friended you back because books = good. :D And I could use some refreshing on cdramas, which I vaguely remember seeing you post about via oyceter.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Heh. Hi! 9Only added you a couple hours ago, so I hadn't drpped a comment yet.0 Yes, I keep seeing you commenting/mentioned in the posts of a huge chunk of my f-list. (Also, half the time I go to see if oyceter has posted on a book I've read, she's linked to a post of yours...)

[http://users.livejournal.com/_neith_/]

Hi, I hope you don't mind me friending you. :) I found your journal via friendsfriends recently and have really enjoyed reading all your manga and book reviews. (In fact, I have several new fandoms to blame thank you for...) Nice to meet you!

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Why must people always blame m for their own susceptibility to my posts? (Which ones?)

Hi! That's fine! i'm pretty sure I've seen you around.

(Is that Fred?)

[fruitykogyaru.livejournal.com]

Hey, I added you as a friend because we seem to have similar tastes in books and TV shows, and I'm always looking for recommendations. Plus your review of A Posse of Princesses reminded me to read it, so I'm glad of that.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! Friend away!

[schattenstern]

I have no real idea about how I got here in the first place, but I just spent way too much time scrolling through your posts, reading whatever caught my interest and generally having a good time, which is why I'd like to friend you. That okay? (Says she and wanders off to find the "friend" button.)

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

That's fine! The more the merrier!

[meredyd.livejournal.com]

I've been lurking about for a while - I really like your reviews and we seem to have quite a few interests in common. So. *adds*

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! The more the merrier!

[were-duck.livejournal.com]

Hi! I just realized you list me as a friend, what an honor! I've friended you back, of course. mystickeeper speaks very highly of you.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

mystickeeper is lovely and I want to be able to go to Wiscon so I can see her manga shelves!

Wait, I'm not sure those are the right priorities...

And hi! I friended you because I keep seeing you over there.

[boneprincess88.livejournal.com]

hi ^^ we dont really know each other but I like reading your journal sometimes. I also would like more people who watch kdramas on my flist since I've gotten into kdramas alot more lately. I also appreciate your feminist perspective on various asian and western media/books, I wish more fangirls were like that, instead of the ones who seem to hate their own gender that I often run into :(
So basically what I wanted to say is I'm going to friend you! hope it's ok ^^

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! That's just fine!

[grimorie.livejournal.com]

Hi, I hope you don't mind but I've added you to my friends list. I was going around looking for Claymore fans (recently got into it and devoured the manga, in like, two days straight) and then realized you were also a Slayers fan!

So, there's no way I can't not add you!:D

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! I wouldn have devoured the manga in that time period if I hadn't been reading it as i got ahold of the US releases myself.

[fma245.livejournal.com]

Hi, I added you as a friend.

I really like your reviews; it's very insightful.

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Hi! Sorry it took me a few days to get back to you. I saw you added me a while back, but hadn't reciprocated because your LJ was empty, but you're more than welcome to read and comment.

[bells]

Hi!
Subscribing because we share a few interests and I enjoyed the entries I've read so far. If you want to do the same you can, I usually post personal events, photos, fandom stuff, book & movie reviews.

Just wanted to say something to not confuse you.

[janicu.livejournal.com]

Hi, estara recommended your journal. I like reading book reviews and we have some similar tastes so I'll be adding you. :)

[skepticallittledarling]

Completely random, but I did an interest search (I was bored) and you came up for Last Exile. :) You seem interesting and we have a few interests in common, so might I add you?

[meganbmoore]

Hi! Go right ahead!

[starlady]

Adding you on account of common interests. Many common interests. Cheers!

[oyceter]

Oh hey, I just realized you have a DW! Are you crossposting everything, or should I follow one over the other?

[meganbmoore]

Most things are crossposted, but I only text post to LJ (not that I do that much) and the extremely rare filtered post is LJ only. Rue also has trouble with DW sometimes, so polls and larger picture posts and suchtend to be LJ only, and get linked here. LJ also still gets more comments, though the two tend to have slightly differnt discussions in the comments.
