The twilight craze.

It seems pretty risky for me to be in this topic on a school computer in the library. It's only a matter of time before a Twilight fangirl sees what the discussion is about and whacks me on the back of the *ow*

I know the feeling. When I was a little older than you, the fastest and most assured way to commit suicide (albeit not the less painful) was to get near enough a group of girls and say something insulting about Simon LeBon or Tony Hadley. :lol:

I think the Emo craze is to blame. Anything dark with a bit of love in it catches on straight away. "The nightmare before Christmas", for example, started selling loads of merchandise more than 10 years after it's release in 1993 - just when the emo cliche was starting.

As for the soundtrack, Paramore's old stuff was much better

I wish my hair were emo. They'd cut themselves instead of making me fork out for the barber.

Great way to meet chicks. Just tell them you were trying to defend Twilight's virtue against those who sought to tarnish it.

We nerds we can't get girls don't you know.
In the eyes of 14 year old Teenage girls at least.

I did fairly well with that, and I was definitely in the "nerd" category.

Just stay away from the desperate/clingy ones. Find the nerdy girls. They exist.

Nerds seem to only exist in the US, however. In high-school at least.

Does Japan's entire population count?

Kids are stupid and dumbed down. They don't read the classics and watch too much TV. They are a doomed generation. They will reap what they sow. Twilight is garbage pure and simple.

I love Orwell, he just summed up my complete feelings on the generational superiority crap.

No, Japanese are different. They've got giant robots, magical idols and superhero schoolgirls.

And tentacle monsters which are after the schoolgirls.

Remember the first rule about the tentacle monsters: nobody talks about the tentacle monsters.
