I just wanted to share this with y'all. I found this in today's Red Eye:


The Twilight Convention (will be coming to town October 2 - 4 at the Westin O'Hare in Rosemont. Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner will not be there, however, actors Jackson Rathbone (Jasper) and Peter Facinelli (Carlisle) will grace their faces to fans. If you're interested (I'm not), go to www.creationent.com/cal/twilight_il.htm.

.. thats just crazy. Darn them twilightwhateverfancinationthingers.
I think all this Twilight stuff has gotten way too out of hand,
and that Robert guy is extremely ugly... why do the teenage girls even fangirl over him?

Twilight has produced some of the most insane folk I've seen yet come out of a con-type scene...Seriously, who else would try to kill you if you talked bad about their thing? and for saying this, I might be dead in the morning, don't send help, it'll be a trap if they get me.

We should all go and shut it down.

I saw this in the red eye, I seriously thought it was a misprint. I can't believe that there is a twilight convention. My gosh, this craze has gone too far... Must destroy twilight! DESTROY! :thumbdown:

Worst part is....I can bet you that thing is gonna be overpriced to Judas and people will STILL pay to go, I really don't understand what people see in that fad, yes, that's right, fad, and I'll be happy when it's as dead as a doornail.

I'm considering selling twilight bottled tap water... I'm pretty sure it would sell XD

I hope the next films are so bad that even the most die hard " Please **** me Edward! Girls" will give up.

alright i'm a fan of Twiight but for some reason this pisses me off >> I mean seriously... It's one (great) series and its practically all females who are into it. (no offense to you guys who are, I'm just saying its more of the female gender) Harry Potter is one thing cuz its spread all over the world but Twilight isn't THAT big in other countries... unless I'm mistaken o.0 either way, a CONVENTION? They might as well give every person who wheres fangs a Twlight bookbag and sparkles to put on their face -_-

I'd go just to see Peter and Jackson.....they're both gorgeous, Peter is awesome in Nurse Jacky and Jackson's band kicks major butt.

It's the crazed %#$&@!*# "uber-fans" that give us bad names. Now, granted...I'm not a big fan of the books really...but I'm also not a crazed fan-girl OR the exact opposite a crazed hater either. (Both groups tick me off to no end)


And to state this.....Robert Pattinson will ALWAYS be Cedric Diggory to me XD (And yes...he's not THAT great looking...but I still feel sorry for the guy)

If that happened then me and my vampire friends would take it apon our selves to rescue you. One of the reasons being it would give us another chance to 1up twilight fans.;}

I saw those on like Valentine's Day or somethin'. They made me laugh. Whenever I go to FYE, I see a stand of those candies.

I actually bought that shirt a while ago, Lin. It is fun to wear. I'm wearing it to the midnight showing of Twilight at my work.
