One Direction Friending Meme (18+)

May 19, 2012 01:08

So, I'm just getting into One Direction fandom and would love to fill my flist with people who are just as excited about them as I am. I'm an older fan (especially by this fandom's standards) and would really like to find more fans in my age bracket, so I want to do an 18+ friending meme ( Read more... )

Favorite Band Member: I love them all, but I have a huge thing for Zayn.
OTP (OT3, whatever): Zayn/Everyone? Honestly, this band makes it too easy to ship them in any incarnation. The pairing I most want to read at this moment: Harry/Louis/Zayn
Fandom Activities (do you write? make icons? etc.): I write, I read, I spend an unhealthy amount of time staring at photos/gifs/videos on tumblr. I can hardly stand myself, honestly, and I flip-flop back and forth from wanting to snuggle them all to wanting to punch them all in the face for making me a sad, empty shell of my former self.
Other Fandoms: Formerly of bandom and SPN/CW-RPS, but I haven't been active in fandom since, like, 2008.
Anything Else You'd Like to Say: In all honesty, I'm having so much fun in this fandom. Definitely still in the honeymoon phase. Also this:

Yay a Zayn fan *high five on the astral plane* (also that gif is too adorable and I can't stop staring at it) And I'll add you. :)

Hey! Can we be friends? :)
I feel like this could be describing me to "I spend an unhealthy amount of time staring at photos/gifs/videos on tumblr. I can hardly stand myself, honestly, and I flip-flop back and forth from wanting to snuggle them all to wanting to punch them all in the face for making me a sad, empty shell of my former self."
This fandom a lovely lovely place, but it leaves little (or no) time to actually live in the real world too..

I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU ARE WAFFLING WHEN ASKED WHO YOUR FAVORITE MEMBER IS, OMG. I TRUSTED YOU!!!!!!!

/sad lonely Louis-wife :(

(haha just kidding, you know I adore you <3 MWAH!)

(lol also I just realized the only one direction icon I have is of Harry's stupid face, so I have no room to talk, whoops!)

Man, I think I might love them about the same amount, but I've realized that I am sooooo DEFENSIVE about Louis. I want to punch people who talk shit.

I only have this one icon too! But mine is of the otp as it should be. :)

I think the conclusion I've come to is that we both need more icons. <3

I feel you, omg. A lot of people in this fandom are really shitty to Louis, it's BAFFLING. But ugh, Harry Styles is just so easy to adore, so idk. I JUST HAVE A LOT OF FEELINGS, UGH, BOYS >:(

yesssss, your icon is glorious. My problem is that I don't want to get rid of any of my other icons, because like. How can I get rid of merlin blowing arthur? or zq wanking off thinking of chris pine? HOW? but otoh.....louis tomlinson's face.

fangirling is hard :(

Favorite Band Member: I love them all equally in different ways, which makes it sound like they're my children, but it's true.
OTP (OT3, whatever): I love Harry/Louis and OT5 equally, and Harry/Louis/Zayn is a very close second.
Fandom Activities (do you write? make icons? etc.): I've always pretty much just made vids, but I'm starting to dabble in writing now, too.
Other Fandoms: I'm fairly mono-fannish, but before this one I was in The Social Network fandom, and I'm kind of always distantly in Merlin, Revenge, parts of bandom, & Doctor Who
Anything Else You'd Like to Say: Looooove this fandom. It's kind of batshit sometimes, but the boys make me so happy and I've met so many great people through the fandom already. :)
Tumblr/Twitter: Tumblr is andniallwentothezoobyhimself, twitter is jumpercut (it's locked, but if you request to follow me and I can see that you're fannish or follow people I know, I'll always accept and follow back)

I can't believe we are only twitter friends right now. What is friendship if it doesn't span the entirety of social media?

Ahhh I totally thought we were LJ friends already! Oops. Let's fix this immediately!

Favorite Band Member: Louis, with Harry close behind. There's a buttsex joke in there, I'm just too lazy to think of it :(
OTP (OT3, whatever): HARRY/LOUIS FOREVER. Like, I'm actually one of those crazies who's like, 99.9% sure they're actually fucking, so, you know. I know that bothers some people, so if it bothers you, it may be best to steer clear of my tumblr/twitter, tbh?

Otherwise, I do love me some Zayn/Liam. And Liam/Danielle. Niall/going to the zoo by himself/food is the OT3 of my heart, though.
Fandom Activities (do you write? make icons? etc.): I write sometimes when I'm not too busy looking at gifs on tumblr through my hands and making noises like I'm dying because of how fucking adorable these idiots are oh my god they are RUINING MY LIFE.

....uh. *cough* But yeah. I write a little.
Other Fandoms: none active at the moment, but some past fandoms are bandom, merlin, star trek & star trek rps, jobros (shhhh, they're like puppies), due south, and about a million others that I am currently forgetting

THEY ARE JUST SO PRETTY, ugh I can't with their faces :(((

Also, any picture that makes it look like Louis is covered in jizz is A++++ in my book tbh. I mean, seriously:

Hi! I am not a crazy Harry/Louis shipper (in fact, they're probably way down at the bottom of my list in terms of favorite pairing because I tend to rebel against the obvious and they are the most obvious) but I'm irl bff with fiddleyoumust, so I am obviously not put off by tin-hattery.

Adding you, if you don't mind.

I like people who ship Niall, because I feel so bad when he get's left out.
(I'm so awkward and shy, that even when people do friending memes I still hesitate to add people... just in case they will think it's rude. It's ridiculous. ^_^;) So I'm going to add you and hopefully it's okay.

I'm kind of awkward and shy too. And I rarely post anymore at all. I'm always telling myself I want to change that, but I never actually do. Now I at least want to start commenting again, and actually interacting with people. All because of these dorks in a band :)
And also I recognise your name from bandom, I think.
Can I add you?
