Title: Twilight Fans are I'm a edgy teen idiots
Post by: WreckingBallClock on January 23, 2009, 09:01:04 PM
If someone insults a nerd's favorite game, the nerd just goes onto a forum and rants about it, where they can call that person numerous bad names on their MySpace blog page. Some of the nerds fel the urge to act upon it right then and there. Most of those nerds are smart enough not to act upon that urge, because they are usually defenseless, since they probably don't have their gamecube to smash the person's head open with.

Well, if a book was insulted, then the fan of the book would probably ignore it, as they are usually smarter and wouldn't be stupid. They could if they wanted to, seeing as their Harry Potter 20-pounder could probably beat off some shit, but a book-fan is an intellectual, and will usually understand another's opinion.

tl;dr= Nerds are rageful, but don't stand a chance acting on it. Bookworms could act on it, but don't want to.

What if a nerd liked a book, and someone insulted it?

QuoteI remember hearing about kids getting beaten up for their Pokemon cards back during the craze.
 This puts Pokemon to shame.
 You’ve probably heard the term "rabid fan" used to describe girls disturbingly obsessed with whatever hottie caught their fancy.  Twilight fangirls, however, take the cake.  Some unfortunate individuals who stated that they didn’t like the Twilight series, sometimes in a very calm and reasonable manner, have found themselves physically assaulted.
 Quotes from TwilightSucks.com, emphasis mine.
     At this point Kylie peered away from her book, and says "Do you like the Twilight series?" My high school friend/girl/person(Gail) looked away and answered "Oh it’s okay"
 And just like every other story, Kylie freaked, at her ‘okay’ remark. Started making a scene at the back of the bus, saying "Twilight is awesome, how could you hate it… and so on…" At this point I was just watching, I wasn’t in the mood for a rant off. Then, Kylie closed her book and hit Gail across the head. Everyone in the back of the bus was in shock, honestly I was speechless.
  Another student was burned with a cigarette for making her opinion known:
     Today in english class I was bored so I wrote "Twilight Sucks" on my arm (yeah, mature I know.)
 I’m walking to the cafeteria at lunch and I stop in the bathroom to fix my hair and there’s a girl smoking in there. She sees my arm, grabs it, and jabs her lit cigarette into my arm. It hurt like shit (and it still does). And yes, I did report her.
  Fans broke this student’s arm:
     The books were fucking stupid.
 I told this to my friend, who agreed with me. But there was this girl in our class named Louisa who is a total twitard that overheard us talking. She argued with me and when she couldn’t force me to love the book, she stormed off.
 When I was walking home from school, Louisa and her friends jumped me. Three of them held me down, while Louisa (whose heavy-set) jammed her knee into my arm and pulled on it until it snapped. They ran off when a woman came out of house yelling at them that she had called the cops.
 They shattered my arm in two places. The doctor said it could take over a year before I get back full usage of my left arm.
   
 Are you floored yet?  I was.  The full versions of these horror stories (and more) can be found here. (http://twilightsucks.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=fangirls)
 Fans, I hope you realize that isn’t right.  This madness has got to stop.  If things keep going this way, it’s only a matter of time before someone ends up dead for exercising their constitional right of free speech.

This happens, Clock Crew. THIS. HAPPENS. I swear to god if someone tries to defends those Twitards... And I know someone will so let's cross the bridge when we come to it.

Also, this made me laugh. Kids and their silly cults...

Quote from: Twitard Victima while ago i admitted to a group of twilight freaks that i hate the series and ever since they had been whispering and i heard my name and twilight hater a couple times we played soccer one day and one of the fan girls kicked a soccer ball at my head when and i did not have a chance to react then another kicked a ball at my head
"this is'nt dodge ball its soccer!"
"heh so, until you realize the truth about twilight we won't stop" i walked away as they kicked the ball at me a third time knocking me over and giving me a huge head ache so after the incident i had an ice pack.

i'm a bit worried about what they could do next

I read the twilight series... only took a couple days, it was very light reading.

It was a terribly predictable series, the second book was crap... The fourth made up for it... And sure I enjoyed it... I wouldn't watch the movie, cause it looks shitty... But I enjoyed the little books.

I read The Host as well (written by the same chick, about aliens), but it wasn't nearly as entertaining.

But... damn, this is ridiculous...

I suppose it's bound to happen, any time a large group of mindless teens like something.

Hrm... I guess it's the Twilight-hate bandwagon that just makes all of this noticed. I bet Halo 3 has things like this happen all the time, but nobody wants to spill the beans.

When I was getting my car inspected, i saw this 40 year old fat woman reading Twilight and talking to the secretary about it, trying to explain the plot. She went on about how Edward is "dead" and "has superpowers" and "can read girls' minds" and all this other stupid fuss.

Best not to think about this

I think I have said this before but she is planning on getting a Twilight tattoo. Before twilight came out she was a complete Heath Ledger whore, before that her thing was John Lennon. It's kind of scary how some people need to just latch themselves onto things. My coworkers and I were talking about Lennon one day, and she started talking about how she hates Catcher in the Rye because apparently it played a role in convincing that guy to kill Lennon. This is an exact quote from her about Catcher in the Rye: "That book is sooo boycotted in my head."

Right...

This looks like the things that happen in my school, and it's really obvious because EVERY FREAKING GIRL is going on that, I don't know if its something on the air, or the fact that the school already melted their heads, but the thing is that no one haves a personality out of the fad, If you understand what I mean

Right...

I officially hate your friend.

I read the part she's probably talking about, went "Heh heh, I get it," and then kept reading it because it's a good book. Your friend probably thinks the whole book is just "KILL JOHN LENNON. KILL JOHN LENNON. KILL JOHN LENNON." repeated for 130 pages. :wiebel:

That is, unless "boycotted in my head" doesn't actually mean boycotted and she still read it. :p

She never read it, she was just going on what she saw in the movie "I Killed John Lennon". Also she is not my friend, more like someone I just have to deal with a a few days a week haha.

I was only kidding. :) I'm sorry. You're still cool.


Anyway, some of these stories on that forum are pretty stupid. I have a large feeling that the story part of the forum is complete bulled stuff, because all of the stories go something like this:

QuoteI was talking to a friend about how Twilight was gay, as that is one of my common conversations I have, when a Twitard overheard us and asked why we didn't like it.

"Oh, it's an alright book I guess" I said.

 Then she screamed at me like "OMG WTF IT IS THE BEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN I HAVE SACRIFICED 7 GOATS TO THE STEPHANIE MEYER AND I HAVE EVEN SOLD HER MY SOUL HOW DARE YOU NOT LOVE TWILIGHT OMG WTF"

then she got her boyfriend who liked Twilight and we had to fight who had 6 feet on me and he was 16 so he had like 5 years on me, but I am a Kung-Fu Grandmaster so I beat him up and he called the police.

The police aressted him cuz i told the officer that he was a Twitard. I was then greeted by 4 hot girls and $1000000 and we lived happily ever after. The end.

One of the threads on that forum linked to a thread on a Twilight fan forum that linked back to the Twilight Sucks forum. It was funny, because all of the Twitard had a firm believe that if you disliked Twilight, you spent your entire day hating it and did nothing else.


So basically Twilight Fans are fucking crazy, Twilight fan haters are liars, and twilight fan hater haters have a warped common sense and reason.

I've seen some posters over here but i don't think it's a big deal really... i don't think there's anything that's universally liked among Dutch kids/teens these day (that's what makes it a difficult group for marketeers, which im supposed to be..). Well they are all wet for "talent" show programs like idols, xfactor and dancing gayness but i think that's about it.. for the first time in years no annoying real life soap, no extremely popular boyband and no idolizing of a single movie star. Yay for individuality!

Thankgod the jumpstyle days are over. I cried every night.


Also, I find it rather weird. All I know about this Twilight is that it's a book series about vampires, gives me reason to beleive the audience consists of goth or emo kids. Why can't these people just fight back, they can't be that strong right?

My girlfriend is reading through this series at the moment. I don't really mind it except that she ignores me for it. And everytime I look at what she's reading I usually read something like this "I'm hopelessly nervous around because I like you so much, detail about vampire guy and a little sense of being afraid around vampire guy to make the main character look like a leaky puppy." I'm pretty sure this is all the book is.
