I Only Thought I Had Reached a Limit

See, I didn't think it was possible to care less about a fandom than Harry Potter. Except my dislike gradually turned to a casual sort of acceptance.

Nay, friends. For I have now seen the limit of my loathing and indeed, its name was Twilight.

Die in a Fire, Horrible Fandom, Die.

I don't know anything about it except that video about the AMAYZING BOOOOOK.

Everything I hear about the books sounds ghastly, but I must confess I find it hilarious that poor Robert P. tries his damn best to get fired from the franchise by declaring his loathing for the character he plays and how creeped out he is by the author at every opportunity.

I kind of secretly love the Harry Potter fandom because their crazy is so much better than anyone else's crazy. You just sit back and watch while everyone riots and froths at the mouth.

Twilight on the other hand. I don't even know anything about the fandom, but the thought of it frightens me.

I love Twilight. They may be the best books ever. Someday I plan to read them.

If a fandom leads to sporking like this (http://stoney321.livejournal.com/317176.html), I am cautiously in favor.

Really, though, these books, their writing, and their message stink on whole-wheat toast.
