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 ;)

What I've not seen on your kdrama list all sounds so interesting! I'm currently watching Rooftop Prince too and going to start Return of Iljimae as soon as I can squeeze it in.

I've read the Twilight books as well, hated them but I couldn't not finish, and seen the first two movies. Why I thouht that was a good idea I will never know. :p

I've tired sharing kpop/drama stuff with RL friends but they sort of go "O.o" at me so I've pretty much given up.

You seem cool. Friends ?

I should list all the dramas I've seen, I've left a lot off, LOL. Ooh, more people watching Return of Iljimae might spur me on to finishing it! I am loving Rooftop Prince!

Every time I go to see one of the movies, I wonder why I do it. But then I remember that the person I go with (she's old enough to be my mother, but also a coworker and friend) makes everything worth it. We have lots of fun together. So, while I'll never really recover from seeing that birth scene, at least the company was good!

I've got the one RL friend, but most people (especially my sister) side-eye me a lot or humor me. Or just tune me out. It's so annoying.

Totally friends! :D

LOL. I keep media lists so I know what I've seen and what I want to see. I have a 4-day weekend so hopefully I'll get to start Return of Iljimae.

Ah. But if you have someone great to see something with it's all worth it. The birth scene is prolly why I haven't seen that one. Yet.

Friending you now!

I have an account on mydramalist.com and since I started getting into kpop/kdramas last October, I've watched 12 dramas ........... I want to watch more of the new Hero show, but I have to catch up on NCIS first. D:

It was gross, but oddly hilarious? I don't know, the movies are bad, the acting is bad, but at least I'm entertained ....

Wooo!

[carelessmemory.livejournal.com]

Oh! Another place to check out! Thank you. I need more places to make accounts. *headdesk*
You watch NCIS too?! That's one of my US shows I keep up with every week.

Sounds interesting ? But entertained is definitely good.

[blue_ant]

I adore NCIS. My boss just started watching it and is totally in love with it, too. And my dad watches it and if I don't watch the most recent episodes, he will get on my case about it, because my mom's not interested in it, LOL.

I can't, in good conscious, recommend any of the movies, but yes, I have been entertained. Just, thank god there's only one left.

[carelessmemory.livejournal.com]

LOL. He needs to have someone to talk about it with. :)

Good thing there weren't more books! :p

[blue_ant]

I think my boss does, too. She was like OMG DID YOU WATCH IT LAST NIGHT? And I was like, uh, I was working? And then laughed because of how excited she was.

Oh my god, I know. I actually only read the first two and read cleolinda's recaps for the rest, so I at least know sort of what's going on. Even when I don't want to -- but her recaps are way better (and funnier) than the books.

[carelessmemory.livejournal.com]

Ooh, I love cleolinda's recaps! Always funny and entertaining. ^^

[blue_ant]

That is exactly what they are. I keep trying to get RL people to read them, but they don't find it as funny as I do ... I'm not sure why.
