Twilight must burn for creating psychopathic fangirls who do nothing but go around and hurt (even kill!) people who disagree with their zealous fangirlism.

You're kind of stereotyping just asking the ladies, some guys on the Escapist like Twilight (Trivun). But I haven't seen the movie, just read the first book.
Thanks for that :) I actually came to the thread because I was worried it would turn into an 'OMG I HATE TWILIGHT LULZ!!!1' sort of thing, but I was pleasantly surprised :) As it happens other guys here like Twilight as well, not just me. I'm simply more outspoken against the Hate Wagon (for all things, not just Twilight, incidentally).

hmm Trivun likes twilight, i'm gonna have to take his man card away.
You'll have to find me first... ;)
Good for you.

But I'm looking at you through the window now so I shall take your man proof away soon.
Oh, so you can fly then? How many floors up do I live then? ;)

A word of advice: Don't read the other three. Saying it goes downhill is an understatement.

I don't fly, I climb with hooks. And guns.

Also, you live on the [Insert floor here] up. There, now I get to take your testicles.

Fifth floor, and the walls of my halls of residence are unclimable. That hasn't stopped foolish people trying and failing though... (and that is me being serious, by the way, people do try climbing on the lower parts of the wall). Plus, the windows barely open, there's no way you can get inside ;) The anti-infantry guns at a downwards angle set up on the walls and fence of the park opposite will stop you anyway :D

Holy shit, this topic! It's so...familiar! Oh wait, that's because it's been done a billion and a half times, mostly when twilight was still relevant.
Hence my proposition for Lex's Law
Lex's Law doesn't really apply here, as the whole topic was started with Twilight in mind.

No, no, not here, but in reference to the 'done a billion and a half times' bit.

I don't know about killed, but I know someone who busted her head open because a group of three girls hit her with a book in Barnes and Nobles. Because she said it wasn't a classic. (Note: By a supreme twist of irony, the girls were all Christians, and the book they hit her with? The Bible.) She was knocked backwards into a shelf, and cut her head open.

However, I think this event led to her and I getting together, as I was there at the time, and kind of carried her outside, and sat there talking to her, trying to keep her awake, waiting for the ambulance. (I just remembered that you are supposed to do that with head wounds. By the way, they bleed a hell of a lot.) And this was after calling 911, and keeping the girls off of her, (who weren't sorry for what they did at all).

this is a vampire


this is an emo


Twilight ruins the image of one of man's greatest and oldest monsters. Not only that but the actors are infuriatingly bad, with bella being the absolute worst. I can't even count the times I wanted to strangle her stupid, whiney, pompus throat. The actor who played edward hated the role and the character. I am so freaking tired of people fawning over that whiney, abusive jackass of a charater. There are are grown women who divorce their husbands just to be with a fictional character!

I've heard similar things, even seen one. Why the hell do they get so freaking adamant over this? The best part is if you ask them to say why the book is so great, they can't tell you, they just say things like "Have you read it?" and if you have "You don't understand it". I'll voice my opinion about its suckage regaurdless of their threats. Hell, I'd like them to try and attack me. Beat them down with a copy of dracula

Lack of punctuation makes the OP difficult to read and confusing.
Never read or seen Twilight, but if you want to see how good a franchise is, take a look at their fan base. I'll never become a squealing Twilight fanbrat... never...
I like you.
(All of the girls I know are squealing twilight fanbrats...so thank you for restoring my faith in womankind)
Thanks XD
I'm proudly the only 17 year old girl I know who isn't a Twilight fanbrat. Then again, they insult my gaming. *sniff*

This is fucked up. Like, properly fucked up. I have a problem with any kind of fanaticism, but I can USUALLY see why. For Sparkly Vampires? REALLY!?

Well i went to go see twilight with some friends and our girlfriends...i hated the shit out of it...it was boring and way to much talking...i didnt care about action or anything but its just two people in front of eachotehr with terribly cheesy dialoge to make the girls tingle inside (not a sexual hit) all our girlfriends like it except mine and all of the guys i was with including me tried getting us kicked out becuase the girls wouldnt let us leave.
new moons not going to be different...like they ruined vampires making them twinkle and shine in sunlight and what now theres a warewolf? what does he do have the awesome ability to morph shirts onto his body when he rips on off?

I must say that that is the only time in my life I have hit a girl. I have wanted to many times, but I never did. And you know what? I wasn't sorry in the slightest, even though I knocked her out.

That's why I brought Black Hawks to infiltrate easily. My forces shall storm the building first by entering the front door, than I shall lead an assualt by landing on the roof and going downward. You shall have no place to run, and when I capture you I will do unspeakable acts to you.
Methinks you people have gone off on a wee bit of a tangent.

You obviously have no intelligence with regards to my building, hence a plan like that won't work. There's only one point of entry to my flat and it happens to be in three parts, three seperate doors and five flights of stairs where I can easily set up an ambush through any other flat in my block (four chances to ambush you on your way in). There's no way in through the roof and since the roof isn't flat there's pretty much no way of landing troops on top. There's a park behind and in front of the building and I have actually spent time when bored in lectures imagining various military tactics to be used in the event of a strike on any point on campus. Welcome to my world. Now, soldiers... attack.

That is all
that doesnt work...names arnt considered words
so you cant say two words (name here)
Websters primary definition of the word "word" is "something that is said." with the secondary definition being "a speech sound or series of speech sounds that symbolizes and communicates a meaning usually without being divisible into smaller units capable of independent use (2): the entire set of linguistic forms produced by combining a single base with various inflectional elements without change in the part of speech elements. b (1): a written or printed character or combination of characters representing a spoken word (2): any segment of written or printed discourse ordinarily appearing between spaces or between a space and a punctuation mark "
Therefore Names are words, what else could they be?

I be one of the others who enjoys twilight, Im not above cracking jokes about it, but I still like it. I guess I had better outline my ideas better than my first post would indicate. I did enjoy the books, for the most part. There were some bits that felt like grinding through an MMO, alot of New Moon is an example along with some of Breaking Dawn. The action sequences in the 2nd through 4th books, I felt, for the most part, were fairly well written. Ive seen better but Ive seen worse as well. As for the movie, well there isnt much you can do when most of the entire book is "And Bella stared at Edward." But for the most part I feel they did a fairly decent job on the movie, its not something I would watch very often, unlike Braveheart or 300, but maybe every once and a while.

Well you see, my stealth troops have already infiltrated the building. They are watching you as we speak. And now, kill Trivun!
Stealth troops won't work. I have snipers around every building near campus, I hacked into the CCTV network on campus and installed my own cameras all over as well, covering every inch of the place. Motion sensor cannons are set up linked to the CCTV network so any movement that isn't authorised by myself will result in the cannons being fired. I also rigged the area with minefields, most notably in the two aforementioned parks. I've become paranoid after Max threatened me a while ago, you see... you could never hope to succeed where he failed. No-one could ;)
