Crush Meme! Oh dear...

Okay, so I was dared...
ANON CRUSH MEME

See... someone once told me that there are people who had fandom crushes on me.  Or hell, just crushes in general.  I didn't believe it.  Then someone else said so.  I thought that was nuts.  I couldn't fathom why.  So now... I've gotta know.  C'mon, folks - make me feel less silly about doing this.

You should enable anonymous posting if you want people to share...

Ah I see, it's a funny-colored link. Then maybe you should disable comments here, to avoid drama and lols. :)

I thought it was obvious... you follow the link to the meme post. Anonymous posting is enabled there. Did the link not work? *puzzles*

ETA: Aaaah... okay, I changed the link color. The original code from the meme came with a color already embedded.

Should I disable comments here? Not really sure if that's necessary. I could use some LOLz.

[triadruid.livejournal.com]

No, "fandom crushes" is not at all obvious in meaning (as separate and perhaps less drama-inducing than regular crushes), and the link isn't obvious because it recolors in Firefox and does away with the underline.

But it's your journal. I'm not crushing on you and not into fandom, so I'm obviously not the target audience.

But, they're drama and LOLs. Why would you want to avoid that?

I like LOLz. :D

::sneaks handful of popcorn:: Oooh, are we having drama and LOLs? I wanna watch too!

I want in! Scootsies oversies?

Also, what's "fandom crushes", hobbit? Is it different from regular crushes?

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Fandom crushes... kinda like fangirling, only more so. For example, say Mary Sue writes an amazing fanfiction. I read the fanfiction, then read Mary Sue's LJ. I find that I develop a crush on Mary Sue through her fandom awesomeness. Really, it's just a crush, only through fandom activities.

[fiona-fawkes.livejournal.com]

For example: simple midwestern girl stumbles upon a fic by Mijan that she likes, so she goes out in search of more. Reads the rest of Mijan's fics. Finds Mijan's LJ, friends her and reads all of her posts. ALL of them, going back several years. Get's giddy and nervous when commenting on Mijan's journal or anyplace where Mijan might read her comments. Makes an attempt to be awesome and help Mijan come up with songs to go with certain Harry Potter fanfictions. Attributes someone else's fic to one of Mijan's alternate pen names. Simple midwestern girl dies a horrible humiliating death in the comfort of her own computer chair and promptly defriends Mijan (who never actually friended her back in the first place) to avoid facing said humiliation on a daily basis.

Three years later, they get married. Most fandom crushes do not progress to this level of crazy cakes.

That... is quite possibly the most awesome courtship story EVER.

That needs to be a novel, or something. That is just... okay, you just made my day. I'm all smiley now.

Most fandom crushes do not progress to this level of crazy cakes.
That's sad. Everyone should get to have cakes.

I cannot ever get over your epic fandom romance. It kills me every time. ♥

I don't participate in crush memes because I'm too afraid nobody will comment. Same goes for the love memes.

Insecure Primrose is insecure.

*hugs*

I don't know you, but I love you!

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

Awww, thanks!

I love you AND your icon. :D :D

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Don't be insecure! I LOVE YOU!!!!! ♥

love, love, love

[primroseburrows.livejournal.com]

OMG, FLYING TACKLE GLOMP!

*GLOMPS back*

I don't know what's going on, (as usual) but I'll join! Hi! I have been, and probably will be AWOL off an on, hubby's getting laid off effective Friday, so he'll be home more. Woot! Can you tell I'ma excited!

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Oh dear, that's no good. Is he job hunting? :(

[cedarrapidsgirl.livejournal.com]

No, he doesn't need to because he gets unemployment, not as much as he'd been working, and he's subject to recall. But they said "three to four weeks" this time, and the last time, and it was 4 months, and they almost didn't hire him back. So I'm looking for a better full time job, for sure. Right now I'm only getting 2-3 days a week at the theatre. Fun times. fun times.

I am pretty sure this anon's fandom crush is not all that anon.

[mijan.livejournal.com]

Awww, hun, you know I love you, too! Miss you!

I TOTALLY HAVE A FANDOM CRUSH ON YOU AND I AM NOT ASHAMED TO ADMIT IT! *flails* ♥ :D

I am far too happy for my own good recently.

[mijan.livejournal.com]

OMG *blushes*

*tackle-hugs you*

And I'm happy that you're happy! You SHOULD be happy, because you are Teh Awesome.

And... I could potentially let myself have a slight fandom crush on you because you are so awesome and your writing is just *guh* and... yeah. But I can't, because you are seventeen, and that's just wrong. But dammit, you're adorable and awesome! *hugs more*
