Well, maybe she's pretending to be a rabid fan of Twilight, if she's following us for this long. Meh, this troll is the lowest I have ever seen. Maybe not that low.

I think that Taurus idiot and GoGoLadyLightning were worse. Bambi the bimbo's just another mindless freak. *shrug*
It kinda worries me how well you remember all the trolls names.

I have a very good memory...especially when it involves people and things that piss me off.

Speaking of which, I found this little gem on my Facebook this morning :

Facebook comment from a friend's girlfriend
(Nani's name here), Webster's New World dictionary states that a saga is 1. a medieval Scandinavian story of battles, legends, etc. 2. any long story of heroic deeds. So therefore Twilight is a saga because it fits both definitions because of the battle between the Voltri and the Cullen's and the countless times Edward saves Bella.


And my reply (it's not the most intelligent-sounding, since I replied in the middle of a class):

And my rebuttal


Twilight only covers...what...a year? Two years? It's not an epic tale, unlike Beowulf, which is in multiple parts and takes places over a long span of time (our man the B-wolf dies at a ripe old age, after all). Secondly...Twilight isn't Scandinavian.

On another note, there WAS no battle at the end. Bella magically became a friggen god and no one had to fight anybody (something I was exceptionally disappointed in, considering the lead-up). Therefore, it fits neither into the heroic deeds or battles categories. Neither is this legendary (in fact, Meyer bastardized so many legends that it's sickening).

So, in closing:... Read More

It isn't so much about heroic deeds, as much as it's about Bella's lovelife and the poor saps involved therein. Not only that, but it plays out over a relatively short period of time (unlike, say, the Oddyssey, which is an epic poem, but more or less the same thing which plays out over nearly TWO DECADES), and is not Scandinavian. There can be romance in epics, but you don't really see romantic epics--see?



Anyone else care of offer a rebuttal for her to consider should she attempt to consider arguing with me?

i hate twilight


Why?


If you like it, you're in the wrong thread.

We hate it not only because we can, but because we're sick of seeing it, reading about it, hearing it, and having it corrupt every other one of our senses that we have.

Capiche?


I don't like Twilight. I was simply asking Ichigo if he/she had any valid reasons for hating Twilight.

Also, there is nothing wrong with someone who likes it coming on this thread for
the purpose of legitimate discussion.
Not ALL Twilight fans are trolls or idiots.
I agree with Miss Anne Throp. Remember, Twilight Scribe and Mel both liked the books and they're every pleasant to talk to.

And don't forget that Mel helps report the 'omg edwurd heart heart heart ' type of fantwat as well.
Yes, she does. And she's helping to raise awareness of the petition to get a Twilight sub-Forum as well. Mel is definitely one of my favorite Twi-fans.
I got the point ages ago. Can we just drop it and stop bringing it back up? I'd rather not dwell on my shortcomings. Ever.
Oh yes, very much so. Too bad we don't have many fans like her bopping around the forums.
@ Nexus: Sorry. My post wasn't aimed towards you directly, but at the anti thread in general. Sometimes we forget that some of our regulars are fans. I'm sorry if it seemed like I was beating the metaphoric dead horse.

Nah, it's fine. I'm just saying, to anybody who thinks they need to be a zealot and call me out when I said that like... what, two, three pages ago? Yeah, it's kinda' pointless and rather immature, since I resolved my own issues as soon as I got told the first time.
