Inyri Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 "He lay perfectly still in the grass, his shirt open over his sculpted, incandescent chest, his scintillating arms bare"Er... his chest glows? That doesn't sound healthy. Neither do glittery arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Er... his chest glows? That doesn't sound healthy. Neither do glittery arms. Isn't he a vampire? Aren't their kin overly white? That, or his "marble/granite/stone lips" shining on the sun (?) might explain it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderWiggin Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Possibly... But then about what Ctrl Alt Del said... that's one of the main reasons that I'm going to the release party tonight. I've been looking for a new gf for about a month. Hopefully the girls there won't be naive enough to fall for this ploy, then. Relationships can't be built on trickery. _EW_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inyri Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 When I'm looking for a boyfriend I just go to the boyfriend supermarket and pick the freshest, plumpest one. Who needs a relationship built on lasting qualities when you can just shop around at a party? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meowster Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I'm a guy. Oh, and I like Twilight. (Can't stand New Moon though. Bella needed to suck it up. Edward, quite frankly, wasn't worth her five months of angst.) But I don't like Edward anyways. Bella should go with Jacob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthAve Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 I don't get what all this hype is about. I thought Twilight is like Anne Rice for super emos.... Should I pick up Twilight to see what the fuss is all about? At least, after I'm done with the Cthulhu Mythos... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mimartin Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hopefully the girls there won't be naive enough to fall for this ploy, then. Well if the link Rogue Nine gave is any indication, most girls that enjoy this drivel, will fall for his ploy hook, line and sinker. I’d suggest hiding some cookies in your shirt Rueben Shan to get this effect: I could smell the unbearably sweet fragrance coming off his chest.[/Quote] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just find it odd that he fangirls over this one book series designed to get teenage girls all twitterpated with ridiculously flowery and asinine descriptors of some vampire boy apparently made of really, really hard, fragrant candy.

Darth Kalverys Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 ^ummm... what? And ok, so I didn't meet anyone I didn't know... but hey I GOT it! It's mine after 4 months of waiting... and it's 2:07 here. But it's okay, I'm wore out, but cappachino makes it impossible to sleep now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bee Hoon Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Niner, that link you posted is fuill of win! I've seen the books around, and was mildly tempted to try reading, but a review posted in the local newspaper convinced me not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zelda 41 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I'm not overly fond of the series. My pal asked me to go with her to some party at midnight over at the bookstore for it last night. I didn't want to, but I did. And dear god, I wish I hadn't. All the people there were 13 year old kids, wearing all black, acting like their parents weren't there, drinking Starbucks. I was wearing yellow; they looked at me as if I were crazy. Anyway, some boy came up to us and looked, well, like a vampire. He asked us if we would "change him". I had no idea what he was talking about, but my friends like "Is your blood sweet enough?" and they started laughing. I was confused, bad, and a tad scared. She later told me that some kids look for vamires to change them, and that she herself was looking for one too. O.O That series has a cult following, I swear.

Corinthian Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 *Shudders* How is it really a Vampire novel when the supposed Vampires' only vampiric trait is that they have to drink some kind of blood? Bram Stoker's probably spinning in his grave. Still, it's not as bad as Eragon's way of making J.R.R. Tolkien spin like a top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corinthian Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 In this case, it's not so much a cult following as it is a following of cultists. Seriously, I wouldn't be surprised if they started wearing black robes and meeting at some grassy knoll to sacrifice human flesh to The Book.

Actually yes I am... and I wouldn't doubt it, not around here anyway. OMG! EDWARD IS SO HOT! OMG! I SO TOTALLY WANT EDWARD TO DATE ME! EDWARD!!! BITE ME! So actually, it'd be a pretty good pickup line- er- lie here... meh heh heh heh heh woops... I meant it be a good pickup line to say that I'm a vampire. *Shudders* How is it really a Vampire novel when the supposed Vampires' only vampiric trait is that they have to drink some kind of blood?

They have quite a bit of other traits too... but I'm not going to say what, you'd just have to read the book to find out (unless you Rouge Nine, then you'd just go to that web page that he posted earlier and look.

Bee Hoon Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 ^^ I presume that you refer to Edward being like marble, and exceedingly shiny. Kinda reminds me of Anne Rice's descriptions, but more over the top and with less variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant it be a good pickup line to say that I'm a vampire. Any girl who would fall for a lame line like that is probably not grade-A girlfriend material. I consider that barely passable girlfriend material. They have quite a bit of other traits too... Yes, like being scintillating and shiny marble Adonises who can make hearts stop simply by smelling good. (unless you Rouge Nine, then you'd just go to that web page that he posted earlier and look. My name is Rogue Nine, and I have read the book. I won't rail against something I haven't actually checked out for myself. I thought I'd just do Sithy and ChAiNz a service by providing them all the salient details of the book and save them a lot of time and cringing.
