Thanks Piki!
Sadly I haven't read the Blue Bloods, but from the looks of it, it seems pretty interesting.
*Stares blankly* God. I hate that! It's utterly disturbing to think that those dough-balled, moronic, vacuum-headed Twi-tards will drool all over the movie for that reason alone! God FORBID it be for a geuine reason, like say, ohhh...I don't know- the fact that it's apparently GOOD entertainment!
*Sticks head in blender* :| Sheesh.

I've been a member here for a while, but mostly a lurch-er, never a poster. So, alas, I thought I'd pop my head out into the mists with an endless rant.
Oooo. Very much looking forward to said rant! To me, there's nothing more entertaining or interesting that other smashing and bashing this idiotic series to the tune of hilarity :).
Rose wrote: "Nice rant, now the thesaurus most have been happy to help you! If you didn't already know those words... yeah.

Pathetically enough, no thesaurus was in sight at the time of my explosion of hatred. (Am just that randomly vocab-ed, *Smiles*) -> Much unlike the Retard Queen of the planet Moronia whose conjoined at the hip with said literary aid, lol.
Oh, indeed! Am glad to know others out in the cyber realm also appreciate rants of intense loathing for this "series!" I kid you not, hon, every time I pass by these books in stores I make it a point to walk up and "gently" kick the face of a Meyer book!
Therapy is indeed in my future sights, lol.
Although, luckily for my mental health, I don't spend ALL my time hating this series. Half of the time I spend obsessing over my love of Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunter series, and the other half of my time I spend obsessing over my HATE of Stephanie Meyer's Twilight series :D- lmao.
Oooo, you have two things to do. Nice. More than I have.
LOL Well, there is that way of looking at it :). Obsession is indeed fun, apparently, *laughs*
Obsession IS quite fun, actually. If it's for the right things (aka, anything but Tw*l*ght). ;)Also- awesome rant, Jacqueline! Wow, if I was that funny a writer when I was insanely furious, I'd have been published a few years ago already :)

*Dies laughing* Aww, thanks Nightshade :). Needless to say, my overwhelming random-'comedy' came about from having The Worst Day of My Entire Life :|. By the time I posted that smorgasbord of hatred I was willing to stick my head in a blender and call it quits!
Oh, yes! Indeed! Obsession is what makes life bearable- and you're right- outside of Twilight, of course. That just deserves a banishment to Siberia bear @$$ naked with nothing but a drink umbrella and a copy of Twilight Douche-ness!
Y'know what?In the pirate days, they had a punishment where someone would be marooned on an island. They were left with a bottle of gin and a loaded pistol. Maybe the new pirates give out Twilight books instead of gin.
*Dies laughing!* I absolutely love that, I*Rule!!! LMAO- that's halarious and WAY better than a Siberian banishment.Defintely should be a new governmental proclamation for all Twilight lovers!
Nice Ira, really nice. I thought that they were keelhauled... but whatevs.... I know nothing about pirates. Except that Ninjas are awesomer.
Rose wrote: "Nice Ira, really nice. I thought that they were keelhauled... but whatevs.... I know nothing about pirates. Except that Ninjas are awesomer. "Agreed.
Agreed a million times over.
Seriously, if a pirate were to have no weapons and a ninja with no weapons were to fight, the ninja would win. Just mad skillz.
I felt it was a little wordy... but ninjas are awesomer.
I get this crap all the time...they say this story is "emotional" and "life changing"...well. I'd say my life was changed forever when I saw those grammar mistakes...and that was just when I was up to chapter THREE. The emotions I felt were mixed between confusion as to why in the name of reason did Meyer decide to "bless" us with this hellish peice of drek, and the oncoming pressure in the back of my spine, warning me I was about to be bodily ill. I just can't comprehend why anybody would want to read this book--it reminds me of those quarter store romance novels of the, quote "Peircing feeling in the square of my being as we plummeted, plummeted into the abyss of pleasure and sin." dear Jeezub Christmas--picking up that book was just a MISTAKE.Never, can I stress how much I hate Twilight...it just might be up there with Dora the explorer. I can see it now--Edward and his disco-ball vampire magic jumping over a rainbow with Dora on his back. But, oh, that's right--he just couldn't let himself be held vunerable to the sunlight and light up like a fecking DIAMOND. And plus, that spot on his back is reserved for BELLA. *bricked*
Oh, I know this is irrevalent, but please don't use the word "Retard". The use of the word is indirectly referring to those who are mentally challenged, and is actually very offensive to those who are autistic. Sorry, just preaching the "End the Word" campaign...
Zoe,First off, I mean you no offense in the following message, so please do not take this as a personal attack against you. This is merely a matter of expressing my opinion.
This is the second time in less than a week I've been criticized/lambasted for my use of this word. And, as I maintained then, it is merely a matter of opinion as to whether or not this word is considered offensive. In my book it isn't, and as such I will keep using it. However, I will try to refrain from it's use in this thread since you were so respectful to begin with, however I won't make any promises.
In truth, the word "retard" is only considered a reference to those who are mentally challenged as a direct result through pop culture. By definition, it simply means to hold back, slow down, or delay.
For myself personally, my use of this word equates to "ignorant" or "stupid" in the context of my conversation. It does not, to any degree, reflect in my mind as a reference to those with mental disorders, such as Autism or Downs Syndrome. If we are going to gag as such a gnat, and take on a crusade against a word, when by and large there are so many more significant issues to debate and argue over, then why too are these same people who are up in arms over the word retard also not up in arms over the words stupid, ignorant, dumb, or idiot? Those same words can be noted as being considered a reflection upon those who do in fact have mental problems as well.
I take further issue with this "crusade" because as an individual with a learning disability (Dyslexia), I have just as much right to anger over this word, and in some cases, more of a right. And yet, I find no offense in this word at all, because as I speak I do so with literary intelligence, not from the perspective of popular cultural.
Put simply, I in fact have the right to the use of this word as much as others have the right to not use the word. I have no more of a right to tell others to start using this word as others do to tell me to stop using this word. Frankly, I feel this is impeding on my freedom of speech and expression. (Obviously, it isn't, since no governmental body has proclaimed my use of this word as being illegal. However, the conceptual thought remains the same.)
My mother's biological brother (she was adopted) had his head bashed in with a two-by-four by his drunk father while he was a young child. As a result, Charles suffered massive brain damage. If I were in fact specifically naming my uncle Charles as a "retard," then of course I would be in absolute agreement with you, Zoe. That would be atrocious, horrid, and beyond forgivable. However, that is not the case, nor would it ever be.
I apologize for this rant, but as you can see, I am tired of being told what words I can and can't utilize. So, once again, I appreciate your being respectful, and as such I mean you no offense by my previous words. This is merely a matter of pent up frustration :).
PS: As noted before, this is my opinion. I am not saying that others who feel this way about this word are in fact wrong. It is their opinion, and I respect that. However, when someone's opinion starts interfering with my life, and others dictate to me (not saying that you did) what I can and cannot say- especially when I mean and intend no offense to begin with...well, that's when I start to get frustrated and irritated.
*Dies laughing* I absolutely LOVE your reflection on Twilight. It was as hilarious as it was truthful! Quite frankly, I am practically counting down the days when this absolutely pathetic excuse for a book series fandomania dies down! The day will be vastly celebrated by one and all Anti-Twilighters! They're will probably even be a cry of joy heard round the world when that finally happens :)!

I understand fully, and I realize you weren't using it with ill intentions. My mother is a teacher at an afterschool daycare that is for and speacializes in that specific area(i.e. Brighter Daycare, VA) and she just loves to correct and despise the use of said word. I agree that the other commonly used words such as stupid, idiot, ect. are unacceptable and used commonly among young children, which is just inappropriate within itslef. I also respect your opinion and I know you weren't openly insulting those with autism, whom I work with regularly with my mother for teacher-training.
My heart goes out to these children, and I understand why you would be so angry if someone referred to your uncle that way, and I as such would be offended aswell--many in my family are affected by autism, downs syndrome, brain damage, and the list goes on. Still, I feel this word is offensive to its own extent, and I personally won't use it(*cough*aroundmymomlessIwillbebadgered*cough*).
That's a good point, Zoe and Jacqueline. I mean, after I gave it some thought, I don't use it as a sort of insult anymore, but in the right context, it's not offensive.Like... argh. Brain fried. I'm making no sense, aren't I? *facepalm*
Basically, I don't use 'retard' if I can help it.

Thank you so much for your understanding, Zoe. It was really interesting hearing your reasoning as to why the word is so much more offensive to you and your mother. And I do understand your point of view. I guess it just goes back to the concept of "let's agree to disagree" cliche- which NO ONE seems to fall back on any more. I appreciate it when people can disagree online without being jerks. (I've been running into the Jerk-o-zoid problem a lot the last couple of days).
*Chuckles* Your mom sounds like a very strong lady, indeed! :) Mine is as well, but she's also a nut! *Laughs* She's literally sitting in the same room with me, talking to herself; "seven thousand dollars for a home?!"...Clarification: She collects old Victorian and Edwardian magazines and graphics and is currently going through them. Don't worry, she's not legitimately nuts, *laughs*
PS: Virginia? Wow. I used to live in Leesburg, Virginia for about 8 months in 2004. I'm not sure where that is in relation to the daycare you mentioned, though.

Thanks Nightshade! :)
And yes, directed as an insult it is very much a word no one should use. In truth, I don't think I've ever used that term in the context of a direction insult to someone. However, in basic, nonspecific conversation, I'm like you, and don't feel it's said in the same meaning.
*Laughs* No, hon, you're making total sense!I see exactly what you mean :).

Lol! That was hilarious. Mostly because it's all true. She used the "cold" and "pale" to describe Edward wayyyy too many frickin' times.
My mother being strong??? You mean ape, right XD Jade Curtiss has NOTHING on this woman, she terrifies grown men into submission XD
♥Cal♥ wrote: "Jacqueline wrote: "I absolutely, positively, beyond a shadow of a doubt, compressed with the fire of a thousand suns, can NOT, to any degree, stand Twilight. In fact, I hate it. Hate. Much hate...."
Amen, Cal! I've gotten quite a bit of "hate-comments" on my review of Twilight- thank GOD for the delete button!- and I've been critized up one side and down the other for having read ONLY 60 pages. "It gets better, how could you NOT read it you skank," or "you didn't give it a fair shot" or my favorite "YOU BITH U DONT NO NOTIN!" ... :| Really? I mean really! :|
I was lucky I GOT through 60 pages without my brain cutting itself from my skull to b!+ch slap me like a redheaded step child just for torturing that valuable organ with the literary equalivant of the Spanish Inquisition!
My question to these idiots abroad is how freakin' attractive can "cold" and "pale" be on a guy you're interested in, unless you're a necrophiliac!?
I kid you not, I am thankful that only a few brain cells died while reading that tripe, rather than all of them banding together to die in mutiny! LOL
Zoe wrote: "My mother being strong??? You mean ape, right XD Jade Curtiss has NOTHING on this woman, she terrifies grown men into submission XD"*Dies laughing!* That's great! I love the visual imagery of that!
But Zoe, please hon, please...remind me to NEVER anger your mother :)! I like my life enough not to risk it, *chuckles.*
Wowzers you guys write a lot of stuffs~ I've only written 12 words! oops that makes 16! Wow! a RECORD! i MEAN -ER- 22.
Hahaha, you'll be writing more, trust me.
*Laughs* That's okay, hon. I'm from the south (well, south by my standards- some don't consider Kentucky southern,) and as such, talking and writing are considered fine arts worked on since infancy. I could probably have a six hour conversation about toast and it be as legitimate as ever. (I laugh because I suppose that could probably be considered a virtue many would find irritating.) But, alas and oh well, that's my random side of the story :).
Random, yes. It takes a gifted mind to have a six hour talk on toast, you mind that.
*Laughs* "Gifted mind," indeed! More like pathetically laughable mind, but hey...Insanity is fun! It's always fun to keep people guessing and looking at you like you've lost your mind :).But no, seriously, I come from a HUGE family of Big Time Talkers, and when the family's together, you could have six people in one room with eight different conversations going on at once! *Laughs.* Now THAT'S fun- trying to keep up with that insanity is like trying to catch a falling baseball with your hands tied behind your back! LOL
Good point, good point. I, being uncomfterable showing any sign of intellegence, am also FAR too lazy to go into suck a long talk. My family's a mix when talking. My bro just likes to debate, I like to avoid it completely, and Dad gets into the spiritual line and talks only if he's comfertable.
Wow. You really do have an interesting family dynamic going on there! My grandmother is our matriarch, and without question she is the biggest talker I know. My dad's the same way, but my mom hardly ever talks when there are a lot of people around because she has a bad hearing problem, and gets shy that she won't hear something said correctly. I guess the strangest thing is the fact that I am an only child, and yet am indeed not quite at all. It's a paradox no doubt.
Aww...why should you be uncomfortable showing signs of intelligence? Maybe it's just my opinion, but I've always felt that intelligence was something to be overwhelmingly proud of, and allows for an independence that very few ideals in this world can offer :).
LOL But I understand what you mean about being lazy to go into a long chat. Sometimes, even on goodreads, I'll check out of a conversation for the night- but I always go back to it the next day. I guess that's more of being tired/lazy then just straight lazy, lol :)
Eh, genuis by birth, slacker by choice.
*Laughs* That works, I guess, lol.
*High fives Rose* Well done, compadre.
*Dies laughing* Love it, Rose! I kid you not, I truly SO sick of people telling me what words I can and can't use. To me, that's just plain rude. But, thankfully enough, I give Zoe kudos for being nice and respectful. There are a few people on GR, and i won't name names, who were absolutely not nearly as nice about their opinions.

And exactly! Seriously. He's got creepy hair, btw. Jsut thought I'd mention that. ^^ :P
60 Pages??? OMG! I am impressed! I couldn't even get through the excerpt that they put up on Amazon!
I... I... I read the whole series... and...*gulp*
I was a Twilighter once.
*shudder*
Oh indeed, post away Cal! I'd be interested to read it.LOL Oh, indeed! I swear that kid's hair looks like a result of him sticking his finger in an electrical outlet, after which he poured a gallon of oil on.
*Dies laughing* And over 60,000 brain cells suffered as a result of that read! Sadly, I wasn't as smart as you, and pulled an idiot move by reading those 60 pages.
Want to know the MOST pathetic aspect to the whole deal? I was working in a library at the time, and not only did the Children Librarian AND another LIbrary Clerk recommended the series, insisting is was the best thing since sliced bread!
No wonder America's literacy is in the crap hole.
*Inhales shockingly* Shock and Awe! Nightshade! *Gasps dramatically* How could you go to the Dark Side! Ignore their cookies- they put Twilight Arsenic in them!
Hehe, I'm just kidding, hon :). It's okay, though, for we forgive you. You did indeed see the light, and for that we are proud of you!
My Rantedness:
Twilight is the most pathetic, grotesque, idiotic, ridiculous, laughable excuse for literary entertainment that is only surpassed by the excrement that Hollywood has perpetrated with it's retarded, ignorant plan to convert these atrocious, horrid, badly written pieces of tripe that lack utter imagination, contain dialogue that is as stale as a year old cracker, housing the most awkwardly written scenes crammed with a disgusting amount of grammatical mistakes that make it appear the author has the mental capacity of an embryo, into a movie series that are the worst epic films produced since The Birth of a Nation!
Okay...that's my rant for the day :)

Grace,I think what Rain means is that in the natural flux and flow of a conversation, it's practically impossible not to deviate from a topic occasionally and can in fact get a bit boring after we restate the exact same things repetitively. Not trying to be mean or anything- just how I see things :).
But I do see where you're coming from in wanting things to be orderly- however I think when we stint conversation to only folder related topics, it is possible the conversation can get dull. Again, just my opinion and another view of things :).
*Throws head back and laughs!* I love it, Rose! Don't leave *Yanks you back into thread* :DBut no, seriously hon, you're randomality is VERY much appreciated! It balances out my extra-ridiculum-Nerdy analyzaltionlyingnes :D Man, that non-existent word is muchoo fun to say!
-And maybe it's because I live under a rock without television (yes, ladies and gentlemen, no antenna, cable, analogue, or satellite TV! And weirdly enough, I'm actually enjoying it! Strange no doubt in this culture.)...Anywho, maybe it's because I am in fact living under a rock, but I've heard about Futurama countless times and have never seen said show :(.-
Now, while being a huge advocate of reading, it stands to reason that I would be able to respect any and all literature, so why not Twilight? Simple. Twilight is not literature. It's trash. Worse than trash! It's that slimey-grimey liquid that gathers at the base of a full, month old garbage can left setting in the blazing August sun...on the equator!
I'm against book burning, but every time I see this atrocious "novel" on the shelves, I want to set it ablaze!
There are practically countless reasons as to why this book sucks, and I am SO sick of people telling me how great this piece of excrement is- NOT! Te characters are cardboard cutouts, lacking any and all personality or character flaws. Clumsiness and being a watered down version of a "vampire" are NOT character flaws. Bella is a whiny, spoiled, ignorant, selfish b!+ch and Edward is a controlling, possessive, emotionally abusive JERK!
The first book has ZERO plot- zilch! And what supposed plot it does have is crammed and crunched on at the end, as though Meyer went "doh! I need conflict in a story!" and BAM, some hogwash douche-aroni cliched "bad-guy-gonna-get-you" plot is half-assed tacked onto the last hundred pages.
The book reads like horrid fan-fiction. Meyer has RAPED the thesaurus to the point of shame! Words not even NECESSARY are utilized, and in some wretched cases, used INCORRECTLY! There are literally a TON of grammatical errors that apparently means if you write bad enough, with enough mistakes, you can launch into stardom with a crap load of stupidity.
And then, THEN, the idiot Twi-loving morons rant my way with "You have to read the other pieces of vile vomit to appreciate it." God in heaven save me from THAT ignorant line of laughable intelligence! If book one of a "series" sucks, then by the very laws of logic, how pathetic is it that the rest of the series is supposedly better! *Bangs head against a brick wall* :| I mean seriously!
*Sighs* Sorry guys- I basically had a WHOLE day of practically everyone I know singing the praises of twilight and Princess Moron Meyer to where I thought I was going to spontaneously combust from frustration! As such, I had to type out my anger and irritation to decompress and keep from hanging myself from a ceiling fan, *Laughs.* I know it's all been said before, but after the day I've had I had to say it again :).
