[library_of_sex]

Alright, in the hopes of pumping some much-needed life back into this shabby comm, how's about a friending meme? Everyone loves making new pals, right? Riiiight??? Guess we're about to find out...

I added a TV show question to the list, thanks to alorarose bringing that omission to my attention. I am sorry I fail at modding and memes, y'all. But we have

BECAUSE LISTS ARE FUN:
11 TV Shows I Unabashedly Adore: I don't watch a ton of TV... um... Blindspot, BtVS, The X-Files, Grace and Frankie, The Blacklist (though less so after season one.) I'm trying The Real O'Neals and it's fun so far.
10 Books I Wholeheartedly Recommend: I don't have time to read much either This year so far I've read a lot of awesome books. Candor by Pam Bachorz, The Rosie Project and Instructions for a Heatwave.
9 Movies I Straight-Up Love: Tarzan, any of the Ice Age movies (which counts for four, right?) Billionaire Boy, Hotel Transylvania 2, Despicable Me, Sister Act... I think that's nine.
8 Celebs I Kinda Crush On: I'm asexual so...
7 Songs I Seriously Cherish: I listen to too much Carly Rae Jepsen on repeat than is healthy.

Hey there, Becky!

Blindspot looks so good, and I always get thrilled when a show with a female lead does really well!

SISTER ACT?! YOU HAVE AMAZING TASTE IN FILMS, CLEARLY.

What are some of your fave musicals? I love West Side Story and Les Miz so effing much. I may watch WSS on the big screen next Tues where there's a special screening at a nearby theater!

Pepto Bismol? You poor thing!

The Rosie Project! A friend recced me that book last year and it was one of the most refreshing books I've read recently ♥ I heard a movie may be in the works, looking forward to that!

Have you finished this season of House of Cards? So good!!!
I love Outlander too, I'm currently on the 6th book.

I prepare taxes for a living, so April 15th is like DOOM day for me.

[lancelotfan]

Yes I have finished this season of house of cards it was sooooo good!!!

I haven't started to read the outlander books but I do love the show! :)

Yeah my birthday is literally dooms day for a lot of people lol!

[alorarose]

I am like... seriously worshiping the ground Robin Wright walks on. She is absolutely amazing and I love Claire. Her relationship with Frank is so fascinating.

Inre: Outlander. There are a lot of parts in the books where I'm like... what? why is this ENTIRE chapter even in here???? But I love love love certain characters that you haven't met yet and I really really want to know what happens, haha. I'm so bad.

Though, I have to say, After catching up on the Game of Thrones books, I stopped watching the show because I got bored with it. So I suppose NOT reading them yet is also a good thing?

This may or may not be the funniest/strangest reply to a friending meme I've ever seen.

[topum]

Yeah, I realised something might be wrong with it too, I am not making many friends here for some reason.

[library_of_sex]

I think you meant to respond to alorarose up there ^^, but this posted as a brand new comment thread!

[lancelotfan]

Yeah my phone is being a pain sorry about that! :)

[library_of_sex]

What's Enlightened? I don't think I've ever heard of that show? And OMG. Could you please make Inception icons sometime in the near future? I would DIE to see some from you!

Nat Dormer is the cutest. I can't wait for her and GoT to return! Charlie Boy is such a great song. I'm so excited for the Lumineers' upcoming album cuz the first release, Ophelia, is so awesome!

I had no idea so many people would choose time travel as their power! What era would you wanna visit most?

[library_of_sex]

Oh, I remember hearing about that show! There's nothing better than shows with very complex, layered characters who aren't just good or just bad all the time!

Ooooh, lucky you! I wanna see them when they come to LA, but I have absolutely no money. I'm saving for a trip to China this summer with some classmates. We're going to do presentations at a hospital and provide speech therapy services. But anyway, I can't wait to hear about the Lumineers show. You're gonna have such an amazing time!

Flash forward like on Lost!
