Can we just talk about Twilight for a second?

Now, this isn't meant to bash Twilight fans or anything, but...TEAM HARRY FO' LIFE!
But seriously, the Twilight series is probably the second stupidest thing I've ever had the displeasure to come across, second only to Jersey Shore. But that's a different topic. Seriously, you know what I got out of these books? (Yes, I read them. I had to know what the fuss was about.) I got that women are nothing without a man. If your boyfriend leaves you, you should just curl up on the ground and do borderline suicidal things to make him come back. I don't know about you guys, but I don't need no man. The entirety of the four books are about this young, stupid girl who becomes infatuated with this guy because he was the only guy to not wanna get up in those panties. Seriously, what do they even know about each other when they decide they're in love? "OMG ur a vampire? I must have your cold, sparkly babies! I wanna live forever!" (Cue "Forever Young", but the Alphaville version, not Jay-Z's sh!tty remake.) Stephanie Meyer is instilling something awful into our youth. That's it. I'm moving to Switzerland :grumble:

    I'd prefer not to said Bartleby the scrivener.

    Oh, not a Melville fan? He's kind of a tough read.

    You do know in the last book she saves.. like.. everyone?

    Also, if it's such a bad book, why devote an entire post to how ridiculous you think it is?
    It's a book for young girls and people that realize that it's just a book.

    Team - who cares, I like all of them.

    Wow, that joke went right over your head, didn't it :laugh: If you had read her message to me, she said if I didn't like the books why bother devoting a post to it, so in turn I told her if she didn't like my post, why bother commenting To turn the situation around so she realized what she said made no sense. Seriously, what if everyone did that? Someone is speaking their opinion, and if it goes against another person's they just shouldn't say it? Sorry, not how the world works lol

    Hate to break it to you, but I don't know if you'd be safe in Switzerland. They translate book these days, you know. :laugh:

    My old boss (here in Germany) is a huge fan... there's fanclubs and tours and ritualistic, vampiric slaughterings here too (I don't actually know what they do.. I just assume).

    Boo :P I think that show is so stupid, but I get watching it because a lot of people I know have jobs or school where they have to put in a lot of effort and a lot of brain power, and it can be nice to just sit in the living room and watch shows that require little to no effort on your part, lol. There's no plot to the show, so you don't have to think about where it's going next. I get it :) I just hate the show myself :laugh:

    I don't like that you're implying I'm not intelligent. And no, I'm pretty sure what I said went over her head. Please, enlighten me how her joke went over my head.

    I think I read a quote from Stephen King he stated that 'Harry Potter teaches you how to face your fears, how to grow, how to become independent, how to accept who you are. Twilight teaches you how important it is to have a boyfriend."
    Personally I have read all of the books in each series and basically Twilight is just Romeo and Juliet in supernatural form.
