Awesomecakes: Grab 'em while they're pipin'!

[ladymirth]

First the Superntural fandom went collectively stupid over a "brutal honesty" meme (there is no such thing. Only nastiness cloaked as forthrightness) and now when the predictable has happened and many are left to lick their wounds and bathe them with tears, they have started up a love meme. Oh, SPN fandom, don't ever grow up. *g* *loves my silly fandom* 

Not that I object to the love meme thing. Everybody needs a little lovin'. We are mostly women here, after all and they say women are like the police - they can have all the evidence in the world, but they still try to get the confession. 

In fact, I was thinking of putting my name up there as well, when I realized I didn't need to. I know you love me. You make that clear to me with every comment you make, with your generosity, your constance and your empathy with me through my happiness as well as my sorrows. I'm not entirely sure I deserve it, because sometimes I am not as up to date with my own flist as I'd like to be and sometimes I feel like I may be ignoring you when I get caught up in my own life. But it's a wonderful gift to have and I'm not going to second-guess it. 

FLIST, YOU ARE OFFICIALLY FANTABULICIOUS! 

So here's the thing. I want anybody who's in the mood for a little lovin' to comment on my journal and I'll give you an Awesomecake, i.e tell you why exactly you are so fantastic and why I love having you on my flist. I have a lot of love to give these days, both IRL and on LJ, so get them Awesomecakes while they're hot! 

*hugs you all*

Caroline dear, I know everybody on the Boards associate you with Batman and a superhero fixation, which I also appreciate. (Esp having the good taste ot fangirl Christian Bale as much as I do *g*) But that's not why you're so unique.

Every time I read your posts or comments, I'd swear up and down I'm talking to a young girl named Lara if I didn't know better. Half the time I'm convinced you're a college student who might be even younger than me. I think you are always going to be one of those people who will never age beyond 20. And infectiously so.

I'm only sorry that I waited so long to add you to my flist. Never change. *hugs*

*snerk* Kinda figured something like that would happen. Not that I joined in the "brutally honest" meme. What purpose would that serve, save to put a target on my chest and let people take pot shots at me? It's like watching elementary school kids! LOL!

*squishes you* Oh, you totally deserve it all and then some, my friend! I might not comment on every post, but I'm reading and watching out for ya! ♥♥♥

Oh, and... *raises hand*

Kaite, love, I think of you as a big sister. We have very similar family situations and tastes and seem to relate to each other so well! I love how well you listen and understand, and how well you seem to cope with your own problems. Maybe it seems like you aren't doing as well I make out, but you are one of the people who taught me that it's okay to ask for help sometimes. I don't know whether you're comfortable with it, but I look up to you. You're the kind of person I want to be when I grow up. *g*

And that's how brutally honest I am. *LOL* *hugs*

[never-evil.livejournal.com]

haha fandoms sure are an interesting place huh?

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

Ha! Commented didn't you? You get an awesomecake!

Well, we're really too new as friends to know that much about each other. But I'm so glad to have somebody I can squee with about Bollywood! And you seem to have excellent taste...not just a mindless fangirl like so many, you actually look for meanings and messages behind things. You rate lyrics more than the melody and you aren't the kind of person who'll rate a song by how catchy it is. I think that makes a great meta on your personality. Also, you have a keen sense of heritage. You don't condone mutilating your language just so they can pander to the masses. Now I'm a Sri Lankan and I don't know Hindi that well, but i completely understand being protective of your culture and I admire that.

Of course, these are all just first impressions. If you think I'm wrong about something, you're welcome to put me right. =)

Hope we get to know each other better soon! *hugs*

You're so great. :)

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

Well, I already commented on your love meme, but I'm all for spreading more love. =D

Apart from the random stuff I put under the love meme, you know what I like about you? You are completely unpretentious. You say it like it is, and aren't afraid to tell people who can't deal with it to fuck off. You and arielchan are very similar in that way. As a person who's always afriad of upsetting the apple cart herself, it's a trait I admire.

Also, I love the way you explode on LJ. I may disagree with you when you do, but having an explosive temper myself, it's always nice to see people getting some therapeutic value out of LJ. *LOL* *hugs*

Love and brutal honesty both! How about that? =D

[cyad.livejournal.com]

I thing you get the friends you deserve so, if we're fantabulicious (WOW! golly!) it's probably 'cause you are too!

And since am always in for loving, commenting and...cake (OMG, cake!! *drools + g* tadda! Awesomacake time! ;)

LOL+TC,

Carole

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

Since you are probably the person who comments most on my LJ, you get an extra large cake. Playing favourites, what?

Oh, Carole, you are one of the most hyper, ADD, open minded, large-hearted, empathic, adorably crazy women on my flist. Although lostprincess87 is on close competition. You should friend each other, you are so alike.

I love how you always seem to comment on my posts, even when they're really mundane, and I love how you always bring the gift of music with you. You are open to so many things and seem so eager for new ideas and experiences that it's an adventure having you on my flist. And even though we've been friends only for a very short time and we live in such different worlds, we seem to get each other so well!

You carry right on, you craji chicken, you!*hugs*

[lostprincess87.livejournal.com]

I Love YOU! That sums it and I WANT AWESOMECAKE! LIKE YESTERDAY :P hehe! *squishes you into eternity and beyond* MWAH

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

Oh, my haawi, how shall I tell you? I think that right now, you are the closest friend I have, even though we've only known each other properly for five months. That's not a measure of how true my other friends are, but it's just that our world seem to run completely parallel at this point in our lives.

I feel like I'm taking a journey with you, an important one. This is a period of such change, upheaval and growth in my life, that you feel like the one constant. I haven't gone a day in the past five months without speaking to you.

As a person, I both love and fear the way you empathise with your friends and how vital they are to you. It fortify your resolve as much as it leaves you vulnerable. I fear for your sense of self-preservation sometimes. As a friend, I love what a bundle of contradictions you are, how hyper and temperamental you are and the way you bounce off the walls screaming for coffee at the end of the day. As a Livejournalist, I'm proud and admiring of how quickly you seem to have developed in your writing and abilities of expression. Sometimes I'm sorry you went into IT. You obviously have loads of potential in communication.

Not only do you harbour the fiercest brand of loyalty toward your friends, but you also evoke the strongest feelings of protectiveness in those around you. It's very easy for people to like and trust you, but it's also a little too easy for you to like other people and empathise with them a little too deeply. I love the way you soar above the clouds when you are happy about the littlest thing and I hate the way you fall into the deepest pits of despair when you become sad.

I could go on, of course, but this is sappy enough as it is. *g* Most of all, hon, I love that you turn to me to soothe your hurts and kiss away your bumps and scratches that life gives you almost daily. Always there for you and always will be. Like I know that you'll be there for me too. *hugs*

Hasini thinks we should friend each other 'cause seems swe're very much alike in the craziness department. So I was wondering: would you mind me friending you?

have a great WE! :)

[judosas.livejournal.com]

Ooooh! Cake! Yummy. *g*

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

Ask and ye shall receive cake!

I have you pegged as the marginally less crazy one in my flist full of crazies. You're not very loud and flamboyant, like the others are, but you are always there, sweet and constant, with an encouraging voice and a hug at the end of a very long rambly emo post. That's not to say that you are a mouse, very far from it, in fact. It's just that your vivacity is of the quiet kind. You remind me of clover blossoms. There's something comforting and reassurring about your presence.

And I love that you let me know when I make you laugh. That's one thing that makes me feel very special. Whenever I make an entry, I always hope it will at least make you smile. *hugs*

[viciousberries.livejournal.com]

I cannot resist cake in any way, shape or form. CAKE. AWESOMECAKE. YAY.

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

Whenever I think of you, Suuz, I think of Susan. Yes, that one. Only less school marmish and exponentially more batshit. In a good way.

I don't think you are the kind of gal who is into an excess of mush. You are one hell of a brilliantly snarkastic woman who is a true spawn of Pratchett's literary genius. You have a delightfully sharp wit and a sense of being very much your own person. You bring a taste of the unpredictable to my flist, which is a trait I love.

*hugs*

P.S I also heart your default icon, although I have no idea who it is. I always pictured you as having vivid red hair and imagine my glee when it turned out I was right!

[pgwfolc.livejournal.com]

Eh, I know I'm awesome.

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

*nods* Ah, good. Of course. *stifles giggles* *whistles and walks away*

There's no way I can resist Hasini Awesomecake! :)

You, pretty Elisabeth, is another one of those people I consider my big sister, and I swear I feel like you are one of my RL friends. There's no one reason I love you. You are so talented it knocks my socks off, I love how widely read you are and how diverse your interests are. I love hearing about your marriage and your family - your love for them resonates through every word and paints the blandest anecdote in lovely, warm colours. You haven't had the most ideal childhood it seems, but you've struggled through it all and now you seem to pretty much have it all. I love how happy and contented you seem to be most of the time. There is a certain peacefulness about you, and an air of anticipation about life and love. I hope I turn out nearly as well when I'm 27.

The only thing I mourn about you is that you ended up in banking when you are so clearly an anthropologist, with your empathy and openness and hunger for new things. But as long as you really are happy, that's what matters.

It's having people like you on my flist that make this place feel like home to me. *hugs*

[twistedlillstar.livejournal.com]

Well, I'd never say no to some love from you. :D

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

I'm just going to be completely honest with you. cherrychalk is one of my oldest LJ friends. I don't need to explain the facsination of Trishie to you, do I? Well, one day, I came across you, Trishie and viciousberries having the wackiest conversation ever in some comm or other. I just went, "Holy shit! These kids are BATSHIT! I want, I want, I want!" and went and friended the two of you with a rapidity bordering on stalkerishness. I've thought of you three as my salt, pepper and sugar ever since.

But personally, I love your sense of humour and your taste in books and movies and most of all, your Pratchett fixation! In fact, the only thing I do not love is how rarely you update your poor li'l LJ. *looks stern*

I'm just going to take a leaf out of Suuz's book and tell you that I like you. Period. It's not something I can pin down, but it's very much there. *hugs*

EDIT: No I think it was the RP love note meme Trishie had put up in her LJ that did it. I just went and friended the people who had written the most hysterical ones. =D

CAKE!!!

me too me too!!!

Re: CAKE!!!

[ladymirth.livejournal.com]

You're the reason that I'm posting this entry in the first place. You don't just make me feel loved, you make me feel like I deserve to be loved. That's a feeling I've struggled to achieve for years. You look at me like I'm something infinitely precious and when you hold my hand, you hold it as if it's something delicate and valuable. Nobody has ever treated me like that. You make me feel grounded and calm, like I'm being taken care of, like I can rest assured that I'll always find love in the world. You make me want to become the woman you believe me to be.

I've always looked up to you and I always will. Getting to know you the way I am now, I realize that we two are so similar that it's uncanny. I figure if I can be half as good a person as you, I must have done okay in my life.

I don't know whether I'll ever be able to love you the way you want me to. I don't know whether things will work out for us even if I do. But I do know that you're someone I'm going to need to keep close in my life for as long as you'll let me.

*hugs*
