oh, fandom. why do you want me to thunk my head? why?! maybe you want me to thunk it so hard i get amnesia and don't remember the asinine things you post. is that it?! hope springs eternal.

and the winner for most ludicrous reason for shipping Edward/Bella goes to the child who posted the following:

Edward is the obvious choice for Bella. With Bella's hatred for shopping Jacob would be all wrong. Since he's a young werewolf he hasn't exactly gotten his temper undercontrol. This causes a lot of torn clothing. That means that Bella would have to take Jacob shopping quite a bit.

wow. i guess Bella doesn't really love Alice since she drags Bella shopping. < sarcasm> (nope, that tag doesn't close!)

the day E/B shippers stop calling Jacob a rapist can't come soon enough for me. i'ma make me a Twilight shirt that has this slogan on it, "rape, you keep using that word. i do not think it means what you think it means."

i think this fandom is crazier because so many of the fans are younger. they haven't developed proper debating skills. i've also found that most J/B shippers are mid-twenties and older. we have a few young'uns, but it seems like most are *dazzled* by sparkly vampires.

they claim Jacob was a rapist because of the kiss in Eclipse. their logic does not resemble our earth logic. (i love that i can still quote Buffy to this day.)

the sarcasm tag does not close! not for me, anyway... ;)

Buffy quoting is good and very appropriate. it is also good to use it to explain such insanity.

kissing does not = rape. but of course preaching to the choir here. having such a young fanbase does not make for good debates. it is a shame b/c it would be good to have some intelligent discussions. ah well. i am trying to avoid the fandom and just enjoy talking to my FList about it. ;)
