Filters and Friending

If you don't like at least, oh, five of the topics, I'm not sure you'll see much point in friending my LiveJournal.
Currently
*Quizzes
*Surveys
*Tarot Readings
*Food/Recipes made public, because they're fairly general interest, not repetitive, and they're cut anyhow.
Comment here if you want to
-know why I friended you
-how I found you
-join a filter
-leave a filter

As I told zesty_pinto, these are my standard reasons for adding people.
Primarily, I like their posts.
Posts I like tend to involve some of the following
*Sense of Humor
*Witticisms
*Thoughtful Analysis and Logic
*Emotion
*Reasonably good grammar and spelling
*Topics I Know About
*Topics I don't know about, but am Interested in
*Politeness and Tolerance of Others' Views
This liking is usually discovered by having common friends, communities, and/or interests. Occasionally I find people through referral from another website, listserv, misc. communication medium.

So you want to know specific reasons why I friended you or how I found you, feel free to ask why in this post.
Also comment here if you wish to be added as a friend (and to filters). I am unlikely to add you to nonquiz filters until I know you better. It's a relatively minor detail, but you do have to add me as a friend before being added to any filters. ^_^
