Dangerous places :P

This post contains information which shouldn't be read by people who are uncomfortable discussing reproduction. Just a heads up.

The Internetz is a very dangerous place indeed. Especially when it comes down to what everyone refers to as 'free speech'. I just got back from a very heated discussion on several message boards, and felt like putting this out there.

By the way, I'm a lurker in the land of the train-wreck which is what used to be a pretty cool Twilight-Fandom. I'm a little sad that everyone's turning on each other and shooting amongst themselves, but what're you going to do about it? The Twilight Lexicon decided to, uh, prohibit any criticizing of the series, which resulted in their site getting hacked into. I do feel sorry for them, but heck, they should have seen this coming. This is an angry fandom we're talking about.

Ooh, found this on the IMDb boards:
[in response to an argument about just how Bella can get pregnant when Edward clearly shouldn't be able to reproduce]
"...Unless the [vampire] venom did some freaky stuff to his jizz which would just be weird. Can you imagine if the venom turned his little swimmers into vampire sperm? Oh what a funny place Edward's testicles must be!"
- craaaazzzyally

... I LOL'ed. xD

Sooo, moving on. The first Pendragon book has been made into a graphic novel! :D The cover looks lame and cheesy, but I read the first 35 pages, and it doesn't look bad. The drawings are nice, although Courtney is nothing like how I imagine her and Uncle Press looks ... Native American. But Mark looks exactly like how I pictured him, so I'm pretty much satisfied.

Today was an OK day. Except for the fact that Pn. B have sold us off to the CLP. We wailed and we begged and we whined, but to no avail. We will be having class with the CLP on Monday. And I don't care if this proves 'dedication', etc. etc., you can't be of any help when everyone hates your guts. Seriously. Maybe it would help if you stopped threatening to leave us in the lurch and just do that already. Just ... argh. D:
