The meme that isn't going away

[jukkahoo]

Evidently I have to do this since I asked yavannie77 to do me answer these questions.

Comment to this post, and I will

1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, a word etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
7. In return, post this in your LJ.

You don't know me, but give it a try! Everything is worth trying except Turun sinappi (nowadays) and reading Jordan.

1. Bad one. And doubly so, because I hadn't friended you before! But that's no longer the case!
2. Green? I have this picture in my mind about this beautiful woman in velvety (?) green gown.
3. This dislike of Jordan? :) No, I recall you as someone who seemed to be very active and accomplishing member of TSFS at some point in time. I like people who are active in fandom and get things done. This pretty much goes to all four (dare I say it?) first posters so far.
4. Sorry to be vague, but it has to be the green dress thing all over again.
5. So, why SF/F and fandom in general?
6. Ack! There seems to be a right flood of those to choose from. After careful consideration, I choose... "Hääkuva". "Pupu" is kewl, too.

1. Thank you. I always thought you have enough lj friends and you didn't want to friend people who are not familiar enough to you. And I didn't want to pushy. : )
2. Gee, thanks. And I still got that dress. Thanks to the material, it stretches and I even used it as a maternity dress when heavily pregnant in Turku Medieval Market in 2003.
5. SF/F is tough to explain. Why some people play icehockey? Why some read Arto Paasilinna's works over and over again. SF/F is just something I like. Something that gives me a lot. Something that keeps me going. The fandom thing is easier. From fandom I have found people who can be described with every positive adjective there is. They are people with whom I can be myself, talk about things that interest me. And have good parties with!
