Stephanie Meyer's "vampires" discussion
*sigh* i never can keep up with all my groups!
Yeah. I have to get on at least every other day or else I'd have over 200 emails.
whenever i join a group i just click "receive no updates" so it won't clog my inbox.
I have over 300 right now. I'm sifting through them.STOP COMMENTING, PEOPLE!
Click 'digest' or 'none,' because if you hit 'individual' or whatever, there's going to be a MILLION. :D
I like my individuals.At least it's not like FB where you get a notification EVERYTIME there's a comment on ANYTHING!
i know! :P i finally got it so it only sends when someone posts on my wall! yesh!
I actually don't mind facebook. If you post plenty, you get notifications for when your friends comment on your stuff. It's quite a good system. That way, you don't miss a thing.

Yeah, that's a good point... although no one in my family has a Facebook. :) Some of my cousins might, but I dunno.
Nightshade wrote: "Yeah, that's a good point... although no one in my family has a Facebook. :) Some of my cousins might, but I dunno."I'm much more of a YouTube person; I'm sure most members of my family are on that, too, but they don't find it as entertaining. O.o
lol this is my most visited website...but i did find a new website that has a bunch of cartoons shows on it! such as...Avatar, Bleach, teen titans..and others lol i think i might like it even better! :P
My main site is Goodreads. Yaaay :D
Mine, too. I had to get a different email just for notifications for this. I'm now under 600 for the day!
I had 200+ an hour ago. I'm at 107 now. WAHOO!
Okay, OKAY! You're just deleting messages, it's really not that great.
Umm... she was being sarcastic.Also, wow. That's a lot of emails. o_O
Celine wrote: "Okay, OKAY! You're just deleting messages, it's really not that great."No, I have to read them, click them, and respond. THEN delete.

I'm not stupid. It's really pointless posting a message every time you click, read, respond and delete an email.
someone should seriously tell edward that vampires dont sparkle and they that he should stop being gay and emo!

(I'm not hating on Anne Rice, but she IS the one who introduced the whole emo/Goth vampire thing...)
Emo people are annoying...eww...just the sympathy begging-ness gets to me. Like Bella. lol
Just attention seeking in general...

Blahaha. I will not speak of a..spelling incident.. *cough cough cough choke cough*
I forgot to log into mai email for TWO DAYS... I received...
357 FREAKING EMAILS IN TWO FREAKING DAYS. >o<
WHOA.That's a bit like my Spam folder... except right now, it's at 156, not 357. O_O
NO, YOU STUPID SPAMMERS. I DON'T WANT BREAST IMPLANTS.

And just so no one throws a hissy fit; it's called a double entendre but I didn't mean that all gay people are emo, I merely mean that all emo p..."
Emo people ARE annoying. The hair is just cool. Scene kids are annoying, too. All these cheap imitations of the Gothic sub-culture are driving me mad! Oh, well - in about five or ten years they will all be gone. Goth, however, will probably still remain. Alexander the Great sparked the Hellenistic period after his death, and a new civilization appeared. They were called the Goths and a lot of people thought they were barbaric and so the word was used as an insult. Later, Goth was used to describe a new form of architecture in the Dark Ages that people, you guessed it, thought was barbaric. Now "Goth" is associated with The Middle Age's darkness and gloominess, which is how all the black and fishnets and stuff came to be. And now emo is just a trashy version of what has been around for about 1,900 years.

That's why I prefer my own brown locks, though I wish I had my dad's black hair, I don't want it jet black,..."Emo hair doesn't have to be black... I just like the swooping bangs thing, which is actually pretty easy to do. :D
Actually, there was this science fact whatever thing that said that people with a fringe over their eyes get a lazy eye.
Heheh, that would suck. :)I have side bangs, but I usually just push them to the side (like right now, actually). If I'm golfing or doing a lab for chem, I clip them up. Other than that, they get in the way a lot D:
i have swoop bangs on my forehead, but they never get in my eyes lol. And i personally love the scene and emo clothing and hair look, i wish i could pull it off, but i don't like to have long hair or buying new clothes ...it seems i am to lazy to be scene or emo! XP
Rose wrote: "Eh, I think it's pretty ugly. I mean, why do you want to hide yourself? Do you want to hide in shame because you're emo? Then don't be frigging emo, that's what I say!I really just don't see the a..."
Ermm... what if someone doesn't like their eye color? xD
My bangs are too short to be swooping, anyway. The lady at the hair place just started going all Chuck Norris on my hair with a razor. :D
OMGWHATTHEHE--Wait.
Same here, Rose. *anime sweatdrop*
I was substituting an English class today. What do you think the topic of conversation was? Edward. ***Shoot me*** 104 year old shinny vampire - in high school. Heaven help me! I tried to suggest that they read a REAL BOOK and I got a blank stare .... What is this world coming to?
:) I LOVE when awesome writers realize the craptasticness of bad writers...Sara Gamble, who is the writer for the single BEST show on TV (Supernatural) recently wrote an episode called Life Free or Twi-Hard - In it, she totally makes fun of Meyer and her so-called vampires. Supernatural is known for amazingly kickass writing and monster-creature-spirit creations. Meyer's vampires are laughable, and it's hilarious to watch Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki joke about Twilight and its "vampires!"
Bravo, Danielle! I couldn't agree more with your statement even if I tried! Of all the seemingly infinite gripes I have against Meyer and her books, her dissemination of the vampiric lore is the most irritating and insulting.I'm not so rigid in my stance that I don't tolerate originality when it comes to writing vampires. After all, I'm a hardcore fan of Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark-Hunter series, which looks at vampires in an ENTIRELY new light. However, despite all the changes and differences between Sherri's vampiric Daimons and the original vampire myths, she still kept the fundamentals in her vampires- deadly, lethal, hunters.
Meyer, however, didn't write about vampires. She wrote about fairies, and to call them anything other than such is an insult to all the authors who KNOW how to write, construct, and develop a vampire in the paranormal genre!
