Doesn't Forks actually sound like a nice place to live? I was thinking about that the other day, and I was looking at the "Twilight Cruise" thing a bit earlier, and I wondered what the people in Forks think about Twilight. They probably get a ton more tourism, but I bet a lot of them secretly think Twilight is way overrated because of it.
So, would living in Forks help or hurt one's views on Twilight?

Not really. If it's anything like Vancouver, no.
I wouldn't ever live in that area of the Pacific Coast.
I consider anything above mid-way Oregon to be untouchable.

I heard once (someone criticizing Twilight) that the weather isn't all Meyer makes it out to be; with the gloominess and what-not. They said it was just like Massachusetts... and I live in MA. gonk
And I don't want to be near tourist twilighters. evil I'm happy enough on this side of the country.

Yeah. I think Meyer's pretty spot on, then.

The weather she describes is more like British Columbia (A Canadian Province for those who don't know) and even here it doesn't rain EVERY day. It's called y'know a climate.

twilight_is_for_idiots The weather she describes is more like British Columbia (A Canadian Province for those who don't know) and even here it doesn't rain EVERY day. It's called y'know a climate. My uncle (second cousin, once removed) goes to University in Vancouver and he says it rained every day in the winter. Personally, I'd rather take Toronto's snow, since I do know I can at least expect a relatively sunny summer. I wanna see Alberta, though. Calgary seems gorgeous.
Personally, the only place I find worthwhile in Canada is Alberta. The Maritimes rain too much, and the populations are ridiculously small. Quebec's alright, actually. Around Ottawa would be my only choice. Besides, Valley accents sound awesome, and speaking French is no problem for me. It's just the Quebecquois accent that makes me laugh. Serioulsy, it's so muddled. xD
The prairies are a**-kickers in the winter, B.C.'s too rainy, the GTA is a scar on Canada's face. But since I want a big city, Alberta, while still a prairie, still has large cities, has kinder people as well as sun. Not to mention it retains Canadian culture. Toronto is killing me. There's no culture here. We're just a ridiculously expensive city made up of little countries where everyone blames the white man. >=(
I'm not even touching the territories. Brrrr.

Why couldn't the vampires just not ******** sparkle in the first place?? She only chose fOORkS WaRSHingTiN because it's supposed to be rainy all the time. So why didn't BELLA JUST MOVE to the freaking RAIN FOREST or something?? Or ALASKA, where the vampires are SUPPOSED to freaking live. The whole thing is retarded.

Where is Forks? Wait. Is Washington a state? O: I didn't know that. I should probably stop sleeping during Social Studies, then, shouldn't I?

I live in Oregon. Which in addition to being right beside Washington is pretty much the exact same in terms of weather and boring. It was really cool to see places you've been to written in a book that's so popular (even if it is overrated) just because you get the feeling nobody knows your state exists. Other than that, doesn't really make a difference.
And the weather is not as bad as she makes it out to be. It is rainy a lot, but *gasp* it is sunny too. It's not rare unless it's winter.

I'm happy I don't live anywhere near Forks, I have to deal with enough rotten tourists as it is on the Cape, Forks would be hell. I wouldn't doubt a lot of the locals are getting tired of it themselves. They probably get swarms of ignorant and giddy teenage girls running around taking pictures and asking local boys if they're vampires and what powers they have.

i'm glad I don't live near/ in Forks.
Though, if I did, I'd cover myself in sparkles and tell tourists I was a vampire, just to ******** with their minds. Even better, do unofficial tours of Forks and rape wallets whilst doing so.

I did that on vacation in Miami.I went around telling people I'd give 'em tours of Miami's "underbelly", while I just took 'em to abandoned factories and the place where I found an old arcade with an old Pac-Man game.
But I'd say it sucks for those people.If I lived with Twitards outside my house all the time, I'd set my dad's bloodhound on 'em, or hang myself.
