While reading my favorite movie critic, I stumbled across an article about the upcoming movie Twilight. Those who I have talked to about these “novels” know that my hatred for these books are reaching harrypotteran proportions. The bottom of this article included comments written by rabid Twilight fans, and included the following gem:
“Frankly, a man who can admit to enjoying this series is more of a man than the dude who’s pushing 200 lbs at the gym.”
Now, lest we assume this is just the mad rambling of an overly hormonal teenage girl, this woman identifies herself as being in her thirties. Really ma’am??? Im gonna go out on a limb and guess that you are single…seeing as how your ideal man is hopelessly lost in fictional novels targeted at lovestruck teenage girls. And if you aren’t single, how did you ever pry him away from his collection of Gilmore Girls DVDs and Harlequin novels? Were you excited when your husband appeared on Oprah carrying your baby? Inquiring minds want to know!
I could quote many examples of equally mindless comments from devout “Twilighters” as they prefer to be called, but I’m not quite willing to destroy your faith in humanity quite yet.

Hey now, Harry Potter is awesome. Yes, Twilight is gay, but I won’t let you make fun of Harry Potter and the Sorceror’s Bone…I mean Stone.
