Third Annual Friending Party!

Welcome to the Third Annual FRIENDING PARTY!!!

It's that time of the year again and I couldn't be more excited!

So many fans start out as lurkers, and there is no better place to delurk than HERE! The Friending Party is a time to welcome new fans and a place for new and old fans to meet and get to know each other.

All you have to do is comment and if you want to, share a little something about yourself. To add a fun twist this year tell us your favorite scene or quote if you like. Then go say hello to all the other fans and don't forget to friend each other!

Last years Friending Party had 1624 comments... let's see if we can beat it!!!

Here is a gift from an old friend for our new ones, the fantastic 2010 "Class Of" icons by

qaf_maniac!

Keep your eyes out here this week for a fun little reminder of all the amazing asylums our fandom has!

Thank you to the wonderful

selenebj for the beautiful banner!

Hey! I'm ET and I'm a newbie(ish) around here. I just recently delurked in 2009. I was lurking around for a while, and then decided to play with everyone-best decision I've made!

I first saw QAF in 2005, right before the airing of the final episode, and fell in love with it. I borrowed a friend's DVDs and then as soon as I finished the watching the entire series I bought my first season.

Favorite quote- well I have to go with the deeply moving speech from Ted in 114:
"I think God appreciates it even more. Because he created you in his image. At least that's what I was always taught. And since God is love and God doesn't make mistakes, then you must be exactly the way he wants you to be. The way he intended you to be. And that goes for every person, every planet, every mountain, every grain of sand, every song, every tear... and every faggot. We're all his, Emmett. He loves us all."

	This is precisely what I'd like to say to the multitude of closed minded people at my Christian university. This really is a beautiful quote and it is so completely true. I wish more people would realize this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
