SMOULDERING TOPAZ. SMOULDERING. AND TOPAZ.

So I was zooming around tv channels (okay, I think you're supposed to say flipping, but I WAS ZOOMING around the twenty channels we get) last week and settled on watching some randomly horrible medieval-y looking show (how can you go wrong there?). About half an hour into it I started spluttering and freaking out realizing it was supposed to be an ( Read more... )

I was honestly so disgusted with the first chapter, that I pretended to be a middle schooler as I read the rest of the book, and suddenly, I LOVED it. Who needs depth when you have *~*~*DAZZLES*~*~*? ;D

OH GOD THEY SPARKLE. No, seriously, I almost died laughing at the sparkly vampires... just... yeeeeah. D: But I can kind of see how if you put yourself in a 15 year old frame of mind the whole thing might be OMG OMG OMG EDWARD IS SO DAZZLING AND DREAMY OOOOH *o* ... kind of. If... if I squint real hard. XD

I'm not even going near the books- my 16-year old sister reads them and she's actually angry over how the main vampire is portrayed in the movie XD Just the summaries I'm hearing/reading are so lame-sounding. I'm not big on books in general, but yeah...

Here, this is what somebody in my painting class did. Have a laugh XD

I wonder if they were trying to be serious about it or... or... not. I'm kind of hoping for the latter ;_;

The summaries I read before actually listening to the books didn't do it justice. It's more ridiculous that I could've imagined. D:

I dunno- hard to tell if she was being serious with it by what she said about it, but she kept saying how hard it was to get his skin color right XD

Seriously? Wow, now I'm definitely not going near them.

Oh wow... that's funny.

Yeah, when I read the summaries I thought, 'Oh ha ha, this sounds stupid but I'm sure they're just exaggerating to be funny.' ... not so much. You're not missing anything. D:

LOL, I can't believe you're still listening to Twilight. After I read the first one, I thought it was stupid, but I totally understood why it was appealing to so many people. After half of the second one, I wanted to shoot myself/Stephenie Meyer/her editors/the publishers/people who kept buying the books in the face. Ughhhhh just thinking about it makes me feel like my IQ dropped 10 points.

YESSSSS exactly. I honestly can't explain why I'm still listening to them- it could just be because I don't have any other books on tape at the moment. I'm going to tell myself that anyway. D:

I hear you, they make me feel insanely violent towards Stephanie Meyer and her publishers/editors. It just doesn't make sense- or maybe they just really are that bad.

TBQH, I bet if I'd had them on CD and not had to expend effort on reading, I would have listened to all of them!

My sister just bought Twilight. I am sort of ashamed that she spent good money on that. :( At least she has the wit to realize that they're not very good books. I plan to go see the movie with a flask of rum because it looks hilarious, though.

PS I'm a bum and moved back home, if you're ever in the area give me a ring, k? <3
