Well, look at you. All dressed up in big sister's clothes.

Buffy and Angel 1: BUFFYNANGLE4EVA!!!!!1!

Is it better the second time around? Or the third? Or tenth? This is the place to come when you have a burning desire to talk about an old episode that was just re-run.

Thrive to spite them

It was on livejournal and that's pretty m uch all I can remember.

I ran across it when I was randomly reading through someone's friends list and of course I meant to bookmark it and never did.

It was broken down by chapters, I think she was doing 5 or so chapters at a time.

And because I never really paid attention to Mark Watches/Reads until he was watching Buffy I didn't actually realize he'd read Twilight. So yeah, I can see why real vampires are confusing if Twilight is the only real reference he has.

I HIGHLY recommend Cleolinda's recaps of the Twilight books. They're just brilliant.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I find Meyer and the whole Twilight phenom just baffling and fascinating. I mean, I guess that explains why her vampires are so devoid of appeal. They fail to awaken the uncanny.

And OK I really don't know enough about Mormonism to make the comparison, but from the little I do know, her vampires in the utterly ordinary ways, their mundane human concerns, do kind of fit with the Mormon vision of the afterlife what with the concerns about preserving marital ties into the hearafter.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Mark's hatred of Twilight is epic, but I've never read any of his actual reviews, only seen him mention them during other reviews.

Always Anti-fascist!

I think Meyer is full of shit with her "Oh, shucks, little ol' me just had a bad dream one night, sat down, and look what came out." Um, yeah. She wrote acres of that garbage...how long was she asleep?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Perhaps she sleep-writes? That would explain the lack of sense-making.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I read them all, what with having the preteen students all obsessed with them and everything and yeah. Bad all around. But I also feel like at a certain level it's awful for everyone to slam them and everyone who likes them so harshly. I feel like for my vulnerable girls, they get aggressively marketed into liking something and then are ridiculed for liking it. Same thing with boy bands.
