Welcome to Gaia! ::

They take offense to anything even remotely negative about their precious Twilight. That was way out of line for them to say that; I mean you didn't even elaborate.

I once had a group of usually normal girls gasp in horror when I called Edward gay in front of them.
Not fake gasp, either. Seriously get wide-eyed and gasp as if I just screamed a racial slur at them and threw a chair.
They took serious offense to a small comment about a fictional character. At that point I just stormed off, doubting humanity.
Actually, now that I think about it, my friend said I had called Edward gay. I didn't even say it to them.

Just started school a couple of days ago. I was in my Government class, and he was calling role, which only had our last names-- so we had to tell him our first name so he could write it down. When I was "Edward" this girl in front of me freaked out "O-M-G, like Edward Cullen. Twilight!! I like it."

I thought I was going to puke.

Congratulations, you've just had a very unpleasant experience with Twitards. I remember mine, I purposely did it because the Twi-bitches got pissy towards another person who didn't like the book much, so I ranted on and on about how much of an epic fail Twilight was. They tried to say that what I said was stupid, but what they came back with was just illogical.

I was in Psychology the other day when the two girls behind me started talking about Twilight. My teacher was lecturing and I put my hands on my ears at first, but I couldn't hear the teacher as well so I put my hands down. They were in my grade, so surely they know that I'm the most outwardly anti-twilight person in the school, so logically they would only talk about it in the middle of class to bother me, right?

I put my hands on the back of my neck, stressed almost to the point of breaking, and knitted my eyebrows as in a visual plea for help. But she never asked why I was so stressed. I almost mentioned it... but I didn't. My teacher, too, is a twitard.

Should I tell her twilight stresses me out??

I would have twisted around very slowly then go: "Girls."
"I AM DISAPPOINT."
And yes I did mean to spell it like that.

Even with college kids it's the same thing, but I just tune them out. If they wanna be mean over a book while I tell them why I don't like it, because people are entitled to their opinions, then they don't have to be listened to. I don't allow the privilege of my attention

The only encounter with a Twifag was in a mall, where I saw a Twifag and her Twifag friends talking about Twifail. She was wearing a "I love Edward Cullen" T-shirt, and I started talking to my friends about Twifail. Apparently, those girls heard us and came up to us and said, in the exact words, "I loooooooooooooooooooooooo(O's x infinity)ve Edward Cullen, see my shirt?". My friends and I stared at her for a while, then I replied, "You mean Robert Pattinson, right?". She answered: "Who's Robert Pattinson?"
WOW, just WOW. I have lost faith in humanity. @___@
But other than that encounter, one of my close friend is a Twilight fan, but she knows we don't like Twifail, so she doesn't talk about it a lot. We know she loves Twilight, so we don't bash it in front of her. We actually respect each other's opinions. Why aren't all Twilight fans like that? D:<
