ok so.... i'm sitting here wondering what books everyone is reading. i always like to add more to my reading list...

i am still madly in love with this series....

in fact finishing the last book was like a breakup. it has taken me a long time (2 months) to move on.

but i have decided to finally read this.... which i really like so far...

after i finish im gonne read this... which comes highly recommended by a professor i adore...

but aside from all that i should be reading this since i have a quiz on it on monday.

what are you reading?

Give me all your man hate. I know many (most?) of you are married, but I want your pics, videos, stories, songs...hating on men.

I am angry...offended...and will probably remain single for the next 5 millenia.

Help me get out some anger? Pretty please?

This happens to be my Very First Campfire, and I can't even begin to say how well timed this Friday Free For All is (I would have just wimped out by the time it came around otherwise!).

I was just on Facebook, and saw this extremely funny/awkward interaction between a 20-something friend and a 60-something other friend's mom. I just want to say... this is why you do not accept friend requests from your known-to-be-crazy friend's moms!!!

So my question is (see that segue to the interactive portion??) what funny and or awkward exchanges have you seen online? Did you cringe or bust a gut laughing (like I did)?

Has anyone else in the U.S. seen the new Kotex commericals?  I fraggin' love them!

"It makes me want to hold really soft things, like my cat."

"Do all these angles make me seem dynamic?"

What things have you laughing this week?

RL has been a complete bitch lately.  I manage to check twitter but just haven't had the time to come play over here.  Anyway, since it's FFAF I just wanted to let all of you awesome people know that I really miss you and all the fun that's had here at the forest.  I <3 you all so hard!

Sorry, like I said lame, but I just wanted you all to know.

IT'S FREE FOR ALL FRIDAY!

Reminder:

Free for all Friday goes from now until Saturday at 5PM EST.

You can post anything you want.

NOW GET BUSY
 

OMTOMTOMTOOMTOOMTOOMTO!!!!! I heard Taylor Lautner is gonna be at the 30 seconds to mars concert in Seattle!! IM GOING TO THAT CONCERT!! Does anyone know if this is true fo' sho'? That would be sooooo cool!

So this afternoon I was hanging out with my grandma & she said, "They're going to have a program tonight that I want to look at, but I don't know if it comes on at 8 or 9."

me: "Which program is that?"

Gr: "The something something Diaries."

me: huh. Grandma's pretty much the PBS type, so they must be having something about Anne Frank or something. I whip out my phone & search "tv The ... Diaries" in Google.

Gr: "You know those people who jump at you in the dark and sink their fangs in?"

me: "Vampires?"

Gr: "That's it! Vampires."

me: "You want to watch The Vampire Diaries?"

Gr: "Well, I'll watch it if it's on at 8, but if it's not til 9 I'll probably be asleep."

me: meanwhile, my search results are up on my phone & "The Vampire Diaries" is staring me in the face, so I click to find out what time it's on around here. "Okay, it comes on at 7," I tell her.

Gr: "Well that's just grand! I'll probably still be awake at seven. I'm going to look at that program."

... I went out to dinner with Dad & when I got back I checked in with Grandma. As soon as she saw me:

Gr: "Did you look at that scary program?"

me: "No, I missed it. I was at dinner. Did you watch it?"

Gr: "Yeah."

me: "Well, was it any good?"

Gr: "It was pretty good, but now I can't sleep."

Thus ends my compelling tale. The moral of the story: octogenarians shouldn't watch the CW without being accompanied by a minor.

Hey Rangers, please delete if this isn't allowed. This is my first campfire, so I don't know.

I've been a lurker for a long time, and I really like it here, but I have a few questions about what can be posted.

is it okay to post about stories I find about Twilight actors in tabloids or do we have to know they're true in order to post it?

Because sometimes I'm not sure if the stories that are here are true or if they are jokes.

who runs the site?

who do i contact if I have questions?

Sometimes I see campfires that say "Ranger Approved"-- which Ranger am I supposed to contact, and how do I contact them?

ANd for your time, post a picture of your favortie Twilight star. I love this guy:

Yes, I went there. I would never date the man....ever. All I ever hear when people mention him is "perfection". I see no perfection. It's why I love him so much as fiction. If I met him in real life? Not so much.

I do not see Edward as perfect.  I see him as incredibly flawed. He's controlling, worries worse than a mother, incredibly depressed, obsessive, incredibly self-loathing, very large temper, and yea, the giving everything up is a big turn off  to me, whether he wants me to or not. (As well as no sex)

Real life, I would never date him. I adore reading about him. He is my favorite character in the series, but in reality? I'd have an awesome conversation with him, maybe even be a pen pal, but date him? No thank you.

EDIT!: The point of the post is that Edward is not "perfect", not that I wouldn't date him...I dont' think that came across at all, my bad XD

To be frank, character I would compare him to the most?

(if you want me to elaborate on this argument I can XD)

Tell me, why ISN'T Edward Cullen perfect. And who would you most compare him to in literature/movies/etc.?

I have been in the hospital for the last 4 days and had no internet or anything! So, please tell me whats been shaking in the foresst for the last few days. I just dont have the energy to go back and look at all the pages!

ok i need a banner for my story. Its a Jacob/OC story. Renesmee never hapenned and E/B moved on with their lives, leaving poor Jakey poo in their dust. Life goes on and the pack is getting tired of Jakes constant moping and depressed sighs. So, they higher Sydney Gold, a professional. Professional what has yet to be determined, but the nub and gist of it is that she makes guys fall for her and then gets bitchy/whiny until they break up with her and move on with their lives. She's so wildly unlike Bella that the pack fears this whole thing will either crash and burn, or it will play out perfectly. But as Sydney gets deepr in her 'mission' she begins to realize Jacob is different. The pack may have left a few details out when describing Jake to her.

The title is: Move Along

Sydney has an edgy looking black bob with hazel eyes if you wanna include her in the banner.

i was just looking around on you tube and saw this and i screamed but then i was thinking is this really them?

i mean how could it be you know its one of those things too good to be true

do you think its them?

I have to admit, I don't know where its come from but I don't think I'm Team Edward anymore.  Sure I still think Robert Pattinson is groin-churningly gorgeous.  I guess I've just gotten tired with the perfection, and I've maybe started to think Edward wears a little much makeup.  Its true that even smoking hot nice guys eventually lose their appeal.

Now Charlie Bewley's Demetri - ho ho ho well hello there!  I think there should be more Demetri love spread about for sure!  He's flawed enough to keep me interested, at least until my next fad comes along!

 Hello beautiful ladies. 

I want to know what is your favorite Twilight quote, or the cheesiest. 

At the moment, this is my favorite 

and this is probably the cheesiest (IMO)

the only thing missing is

Bella: Stupid lamb.

Edward: Sick, masochistic lion.

Also what is your favorite quote? 

Mine is this one

You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I'll rise.

So a while ago I was chatting with Littlestar300 on Twitter & the conversation turn to Peter Facinelli/Carlisle & I stated that I would LOVE to read some Carlisle fics, so the lovely lady sent me some wonderful fics. But all good stories must end, so I was wondering if anyone could rec me some Carlisle fics. It doesn't matter about pairing, whether it's AU, AH etc etc. As long as it has Carlisle in it. Thank-you in advance

For your time

We have such a loving and appreciative fandom. Really we do.

We appreciate our favorite authors, our betas, our readers, and here on ADF we even appreciate each other as campers/rangers!

Now for another appreciation post to those tech-savvy individuals who do us authors the FANTASTIC favor of making us banners and gifs, whether it be for our story, or just in general.

Let's appreciate them and their hard work!

For me, I just received these two in the last week:

made by the wonderful yanxxx from this site and

made by my one true love IcelandGirl812.

Totally just opened the emails for both of them today, and I feel loved, and I love them.

Now show your love for your favorite artists!

(ranger emibella approved :D)

Confession I am best friends with a girl who doesn't like Robert Pattison and I quote here "I find him utterly repulsive"

Help me convince her that she  is insane, give her some good reasons why you love RPatts (she doesn't like smokers so warning plz dont put him smoking, won't help the argument)

P.S. She is scared of the "the lady with the big purple font" lolz

AS IF SHE COULD OUTRUN ME

This made my whole damn day. 

Even if they were trying to be funny, it didn't work because they are pretty awesome. 

Hey Campers!

My good friend, Jessica Stanley is back with another awesome character interview!  This week she spoke to Edward Cullen from Art After 5 and Counterpoint, by the lovely Sleepyvalentina.  I think Jessica had a good time with this one… and from what I read, I think it’s pretty clear Miss Stanley is going to make one hell of a reporter…

See the interview in the comments~~
