    As far as the first one goes - People started believing/convincing themselves they were werewolves, vampires, dragons, and anything else long before Twilight. Twilight did not start that...
    It's sad, no matter how you look at it.
    Same for B.

    C? I kind of see Burger King commercials as things meant to be so utterly stupid that they make you facepalm. If anything, they made it as a joke...to make fun of fangirls, imo. Er, to make fun of them while also effectively marketing the product.

    Somebody on Twitter posted a link to a "Vamp" sex-toy that sparkles, and is cold and meant to imitate vampires for...creepy...creepy people who take it too far.
    If anything, that's the only thing that pushed Twilight from just a normal example of a fad...o_O

    Yeah, I like the twilight series a lot, but I don't go around incorporating it into my lifestyle as much as possible. I mean if it comes to it, I will get into an argument over Twilight or Stefanie Meyer if you "provoke" me, but yeah, I think that the way that all of these people are letting it go to their head is really annoying.

    Especially the ad placements like the Burger King commercial, I just think it's pretty lame. I mean, I'm pretty sure that not everyone was doing stuff like this with Harry Potter (or maybe they were...just secretly)

    Yeah, those are my thoughts on it though.

    I'm sorry to say this and I'm not trying to bash you or Twilight
    but have you seriously just noticed that Twilight has gone overboard?

    It probably hs gone overboard. I personally like the twilight books, but I'm not too crazy about it. I do not know one girl who hasnt seen the movie. That is sad. Last year, this girl Kayla was obsessed. She fully believed, without a doubt, that he was Bella. This year, she is convinced she is Bella's sister. She orders all these things online like gloves, hats, jewelry, clothes, that i upposedly Bella's. She pays a lot of money.
