Why a 25+ meme ?

Being a slightly older kpop and kdrama fan I (and a few others with me) always get a little disappointed by the friending memes.
Lots of 12-17ish year olds.  Nothing wrong with being that age (it's wonderful), but someone 25+ or even 35+ can get a bit
discouraged by it. At least that's how it is for me.
I suspect there might be lots of older fans, like me, who feel like that. If you're 25+ - 35+ you really don't have much in common with a
16 year old.That's a fact. It always keeps me from participating in the memes, thinking what's the use ?I'm thinking there might be more fans out there feeling the same way. So therefore the 25+ cut off. Also since this is a 25+ meme please only participate if you're in fact 25 or older !

Also this meme doesn't have a deadline. No need to comment within the first 5 mins after posting (though you're welcome to do so).
There's time zones and I assume most 25+ y.o. have college,work and families to deal with (that pesky real life !)

Please feel free to come back and check for new comments anytime, or for lazy people (like me :p) track this post for new comments ;)

Yea I'm a big wimp!! lol!! If the new game wasn't coming out I would have fought for it. But meh. Too late now.

Yay Night of the Living Dead! I just found out someone I know loves zombie movies and her Grandfather's truck is the one near the end that is lit on fire and the zombies are eating (the actors were eating chicken she said!) in it. I have to rewatch I can't remember that scene!
I didn't see zombie movies until I was 14. My 1st one was Return of the Living Dead 2!

So amusing that your friend was named Barbara!! hahahah!! I am seriously amused by that!! lol!!

[rectherapyfreak.livejournal.com]

yea..I suck at grammar...I'm not even great at my own language and I'm off trying to learn another...

Maybe I can motivate myself to post a word every couple of days that we both have to learn lol!!

I really liked both of those movies. And 28 Days Later (I think that's it). I like the RE stuff for Milla, mostly. I can't play the games, shooters (especially FPS) make me motion sick (I tried to play Portal and made it 10 minutes before I realized that the reason I felt like I was going to throw up was the game and not me being sick). But I do own a Wii copy of one of the RE games. So, maybe that'll be different.

I love that series, I have one of the others in my apartment that I still need to read. I love Priest's characters, so much, omg.

I will give it a try, at some point.

[rectherapyfreak.livejournal.com]

Yes I like 28 days later too! I actually have a hard time playing the horror story games because they freak the shit out of me lol!! I get scared!! lol!! Silent Hill scared me the most. Some how I was able to play RE one though. I didn't know they has RE games for the Wii!! that's cool!

Nice! I am enjoying it so far too!

[rectherapyfreak.livejournal.com]

I listen to mainly Kdrama osts lol...and Abney Park. My time for listening to music and my wallet for buying music is so limited now that I don't really listen to much..unless you count my kids muisic...lol.

[blue_ant]

I don't think the games are actually that good for the Wii, but I guess they'll do? But mostly I use my Wii for the Wii Dance, Wii Fit and watching Netflix.

[blue_ant]

Ahhhh. I d/l a lot of music and I'm not a big fan of OSTs because I'm anal about my itunes library (I know, that's a stupid reasons) and all those different artists screw up the sorting by artist feature.

[butterfly8772.livejournal.com]

The Korean grammar breaks my brain. Why do they have to put the verb last ? Gah.

I can do one word every couple of days ! I think.
Has to be an interesting word though. Preferably one that can be frequently heard in songs or drama, so that I actually remember what it means.

I'm not demanding or difficult at all :P

OMG hi thar!!!
Wow, another lynch. fan splashing around in Kpop... That is rather cool

[minka-g.livejournal.com]

The Seaside Motel was one of the first movies he did. It is great; I highly recommend it. And Maou was great and the one with him on the jury... I think I saw that. it was like Majo Saiban or something to do with witch trials. I don't know if I finished it though. I also liked Voice.

Have you watched any of Tairano Kiyomori yet? I keep meaning to sit down and start it cause it is Matsuyama Kenichi and Daito Shunsuke, but I just haven't had the time.

It is rather amazing how so many of us started out in Jpop and Jrock and then sort of just migrated over to Kpop. It fascinates me

[renichifreak.livejournal.com]

yes'!! Majo Saiban!!! And Voice...OMFG I love that drama...

I've heard about Tairano Kiyomori I think...maybe...

to be honest, I STARTED in anime...got into jrock through L'Arc`en~Ciel, then met a friend who got me into jpop, then into kpop...^____^

I hate to not have enough money for everything >,< XD
today I couldn't resist to buy something..we went shopping for our new apartement and we went to that toyshop because we needed to buy some birhtday presents for a good friend and at the videogame section I saw a game that I want for so long now and I just couldn't resist and had to buy it TT I hate when that happens but sometimes I just can't resist....I need more money XD

[andersenmom.livejournal.com]

Well, yes, I agree. it is easier to write reviews for friends (although I suck at that, too).

You know, I went through a time where I couldn't get anything done, too. i currently have six ideas floating around in my head, and I need to get them all out and on paper - even just notes - so I don't lose them. That would be horrible....

I don't write as much or as regularly as I would like to. I have got to get off Tumblr.... too much there!

[blue_ant]

I totally understand where you're coming from. I've done that! Sometimes we just HAVE to spend money.

[blue_ant]

One of the few things I like about AO3 is that you can leave kudos w/out leaving actual feedback. I am lazy :-/

I just find myself waiting until the time is right for me to write. I just wish I knew what that would be.

Oh, god. Tumblr = huge time suck.

Re: We'll live it up under the city lights...

[cc9095.livejournal.com]

And surprising. I don't know why, but it is surprising. XD

[dazzlingdespair.livejournal.com]

Duuuuuuuuuuuuude That's awesome! Knowing me I'd be all "CAN I MEET YOUR GRANDPA? DOES HE STILL TALK TO GEORGE ROMERO? COULD YOUR GRANDPA INTRODUCE ME TO GEORGE ROMERO SO I CAN DIE HAPPY?!" I'd be half joking, but only half. Well... Maybe only like one-eight joking. *lol*

That's the scene when Ben and Tom are going to take the truck to the gas pump to fill it up and Judy is struck with a moment of supreme idiocy and is all "I'm going with them" and gets in the truck with them. Then it turns out the keys they found were the wrong ones so Ben puts his torch down and shoots the lock off the pump and Tom spews the gas all over the place and Ben is like "WATCH THE TORCH!" and you know he's thinking in his head "You fucking hick moron what's wrong with you?!?!" Then he's like "We have to get away from the pump!" so stupid Tom gets back in the truck (which is already on fire, btw) and starts driving away but like two seconds later he turns to Judy and says "We have to get out of the truck!" and he opens the door to get out but Judy's jacket is caught and rather than panicking 'cause he life's in danger and shrugging out of the damn thing, she's just like casually tugging on it like she's thinking "Oh fudge, I don't want to pull too hard because it might rip" and then KA-BOOM! they become a zombie BBQ buffet.

Gee, can you tell I've seen the movie a few times? XD

"Return of the Living Dead 2" was your first zombie movie? I am so sorry. LOL I've watched all the of the "Return of the Living Dead" movies and I'll watch a couple of them whenever they're on 'cause, hey, zombies but those movies are so awful. XD The first couple are good just for the sheer "WTFLOL" cringe factor, but after like 3... I just can't with them. "Rave to the Grave" was the worst. @_@

Oh yes, my bestie's name is Barbara. She's a huge zombie nut, too, so that makes it even better. XDDD

[rectherapyfreak.livejournal.com]

I know right!! I'd love to meet George Romero!! I don't know if it was him exactly who bought the truck. It was a piece of crap and they gave him $500 for it.

lol!! I guess you do know the movie word for word!! lol awesome!!

I love the corniness of Return of the Living Dead 2!! But yea not a top favorite but it has a special place in my heart for being #1..
Rave to the grave was awful...

Did you hear Tom Savini was trying to get a role on Walking Dead? I was so sad when he was turned down. :(

That is awesome that she is a zombie fan. If she was my friend every time i went to pick her up for something I would say "I'm coming to get you Barbara!" Did I say that right?

[hitachiinfan.livejournal.com]

Would love to add you because of Love Rain, and Rooftop prince.

[dazzlingdespair.livejournal.com]

Ah. Yeah. He wanted to be the Governor. Honestly I understand why they turned him down. Tom Savini is amazing and he is a god in the zombie lover's pantheon, but from an objective viewpoint, he's a crappy actor. Can't have crappy actors on a show that has arguably some of the best actors on television in it. Let him help out with some special effects and direct an episode or two. He's best at those things. As an actor he's cheesy, campy, and lacks believability. Savini would be better suited to a minor role or a cameo as a particularly vicious walker. You know, his usual thing.

[doughfied.livejournal.com]

cool, adding you back too. XD

[rectherapyfreak.livejournal.com]

I didn't know he was a crappy actor. I thought he was acting that on purpose since the few things I saw him in were cheesy, campy things ! lol!
