I wonder what the Church thinks of Twilight. In regards to ruining marriages. |

It upsets me that not only does SM (and what is she, 34 or so?) fap to the thought of a seventeen year old boy, but legions of married women do too. Perfectly healthy! OH WAIT EDWARD'S NOT JAILBAIT BECAUSE HE'S IMMORTAL, OF COURSE!1. Jesus, Edward is creepy, and not good-creepy in the Humbert-Humbert-unreliable-narrator way. Sadly, people genuinely seem to think that he'd make a good boyfriend. No. Just no. And Orson Scott Card is disgustingly homophobic. I guess the mormons are sticking together--what's he saying now? |

I don't really mind the idea of mums fangirling (fan... mom?) over 17-year-olds---only if he wasn't made of crap and ice and marble. Edward (and pretty much everyone else) is so horribly written. HE'S SCARY. He's the kind of boyfriend moms should be on the look-out for; to tazer, mind you, not rape. |

I'm disturbed that something comparable to a Harlequin romance is a bestseller ![]()
Ugh, I didn't know that *absolutely can't stand homophobia* I just knew he was a famous, acclaimed sci-fi writer and read his Times magazine comment:
![]() But I think he just returned the favor because SM fangirled over him in some other interview. Getting back on that MST, I agree with Skelly, we should just do excerpts. Meyer has this annoyingly dull thing where she describes EVERY minute motion Bella does. Off the top of my head: "First I logged on to the Internet. Then I closed the little pop up windows. Then it took such a long time loading that I went to get a bowl of cereal. Then I chewed each bite carefully... " *snores* |

Yeah, I think my favourite comment on his is that gays should shut up about not being able to get married, because they can get married--to people of the opposite gender! I'd hardly say SM cared about Twilight. I read in an article that she wrote the entire thing, start to finish, in less than three months? And comparing Edward to Mr. Darcy? Ahahahaha NO. Austen must be rolling in her grave |

We are number one. All others are number two, or lower.
|
What gets me about the married women is that it's such bad taste. You'd think someone who's had a real marriage and all would realize how superficial and such Twilight is. |

People who act this way usually have a surplus of time, mostly on their own. These people are easily led by their imagination with nothing around to ground them. It's also usually a sign of lacking substance in their real lives, so they are using their imagination to compensate for an overly dull reality. At their age, acting like a child again by dreaming of boy vampires in a sexual way is an attempt to recapture something they lost. So... Imagination + Twilight + Internet (support for this behavior) - sufficient amount of responsibility + overabundant time = Adults dreaming about 17 year old looking vampires in high school. Many adults show a lesser obsessive type of behavior when they read romance novels, but Twilight is very different from verbal, grandiose porn. It takes a special kind of adult to inject themselves that proudly into a teen/vampire romance written for a target audience of 13 - 17 year old minors. |

Put it in any way, it's still really scary. D: And really sad too, come to think of it. Or maybe they could just really really like the book?![]() Does that not look like rape? DX EDIT:

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA AND I'M NOT EVEN A FAN OF ANNE RICE ![]() Lol, as to women fantasizing about their husbands being vampires, does it count as creepy if he's a World of Darkness Vampire? Cuz dat's just hawt. SO UN-EDWARD, I JUST DON'T KNOW As for Orson Scott Card, give the guy a break. We believe homosexuality is a sin, let us have our beliefs. Edit: Also, I think Anita Blake may win

I think I find it's ridiculously hypocrital because that's what EDWARD is. Oh, and even more so 'cuz he's freaking perfect, whereas Anne Rice's vampires were flawed. But no, rly, wut r vampyirz 2 u? D:ASSLDKJGSLKHGSDL. Mind fcuk # 2: Stephanie Meyer choosing City of Bones as the April "Book of the Month" choice. DX |

Anne Rice's vampires were around LONG before Stephanie Meyer's pathetic vampires. I guess she liked them up until the point she found out that they loved everyone regardless of gender. :rolleyes: That and she wanted more sparkling ~dazzle~. She pretty much took vampires and shat on their whole mystique. THEY DO NOT BELONG IN HIGH SCHOOL. Especially if they're....you know....OLDER than the rest in their grade? And if they were as mature and experienced as a 100 year old, a dumbass Mary Sue would NOT gain all that attention just for being ~fascinating~ because by then, they would have seen MUCH more. 100 years is still young for a vampire anyway so I cannot find any end to the ridiculousness of these pathetic books. Why are they even called vampires in her books anyway? They can be out during the day and so far I haven't seen any mention at all of drinking blood. Did she just steal the vampire "God mode" and make Edward invincible or what? Obviously all that matters are his looks and how POWERFUL he is. Screw any character depth for any of these people. |
