This headline:

New subculture emerges in suburban high schools,
instead of being emo, lost tweens pretend they are wolves

Followed by THIS video

worries me. In case you were too scared to watch the video, let me recap it for you:

-Kids in Texas howl while at school. Like wolves.
-They pin tails on their butts. That’s not a game at a 7 year old’s birthday party. See Exhibit A

-They say they are not a gang, therefore they don’t want attention
-They call themselves a “pack”
-And go to each other with their problems, which is completely different than any other group of teenagers I’ve ever heard of

As you might imagine, the media has quickly blamed this teen phenomenon on Twilight.

Right. That makes sense. Cause This:

is the same as THIS:

And I know I’ve been out of high school for awhile, but the boys who wore eyeliner and had long hair, and would have gladly sported a tail had they known it was sold at Hot Topic, wouldn’t be caught DEAD watching or reading something as commercial as “Twilight.”

Then again this girl (yes, girl) is wearing a Harry Potter shirt…

Hey! She should join the Harry Potter book club on the forum

That is… if the gals in the book club wouldn’t mind if she looked like this after having a little snack….

Imma get me one of those tails,
UnintendedChoice

Please read the article where I learned of this phenomenon I wish I could have been a part of when I was in my teens (um sarcasm for those of you who are stupid new) because it’s hilarious. And make sure you don’t miss my comment.

Alright- let’s all say this together now on 3, ready? 1-2-3: THAT’S NOT NORMAL!!!!!

Thank you to everyone who was so marvelous to me for my birthday yesterday. I had the best day all because of you all! Here is my blurry, self-portrait thank you

Our internet game is ridiculous: LTR, The Forum, Twitter

I'm sending this cake to your office today, get ready to have a lot of explaining to do!

Dear UC,

I tried and tried to think of something cool to do for your birthday… maybe I could assume the persona of The Cullens and make you eternally 17 or maybe I would write about how when we met my life was like a moonless night… but none of that seemed right so I took it to the streets and enlisted our best assets (no, not those), OUR READERS! What better way to bring in another year than with wishes from some of the funniest people we’ve ever met.

And since this is a blog and all I thought let’s do it interwebs style and have people send in fan sign pics for you!

Get ready to laugh your face off…

We think your aging is something to celebrate!

(mouse over images to see the names of these ltt folks!!)

Thanks to all our readers who contributed and for all the fun, cute and downright  hilarious pictures you sent in!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY UC!

Guess what! We FINALLY joined the 21st century, figured out technology and Both UC and I AND The Font and White Yorkie are together at last on Episode 5 of the podcast. All our voices together at last discussing all the latest in the Twi-world, it’s like a chorus of angels singing. Kinda like when Robert Pattinson walks down the street. And I must admit it might be the best one we’ve done. For reals.

XO,
Moon

Today is my 4 year wedding anniversary with Mr. Choice. This combined with my mention last week of not being done with New Moon quite yet really puts me in the mood to share with you an experience I had a week or so ago:

Mr. Choice said to me, on a Sunday afternoon, “I’d like to watch New Moon with you.” After I looked around for the “Pun’k” cameras and checked to feel if I still had a pulse, I asked him what I had to do in return. Apparently nothing (Well, there was a 30 second conversation about me needing to be in the “buff” in order for him to watch it, but I promised to make him popcorn instead. After 4 years of marriage I’ve learned what compromise means. And that sometimes food wins over sex) Watching New Moon with Mr. Choice was interesting. And embarrassing. And really kind of fun!

Here are his thoughts:

He did not know who the old woman was in the first scene despite Bella calling her “Gram” a few times

Have you seen my werthers? I seem to have misplaced them...

When Edward appeared in the field- he gasped. And Laughed. Then asked if I had a lady boner (I did)

Your werthers are in my pants...

Mr. Choice is a musician- a very talented one- and dreams of one day writing the score for a Twilight film. Before last night he had never heard the score to New Moon. Every night as I’m falling asleep I hear this song coming from his studio- it sounds JUST like the main theme from New Moon. I told him I thought that awhile back and he said he wrote the song in high school. Tonight, he said, “Desplat stole this shit from me. I have the original score in a box at my parents house.” He was pretty pissed the rest of the film…..Someone owes the Choice family a bunch of money…

When Jacob first appears outside of the school, he stops it and rewinds yelling IS THAT A MULLET!? Then we had to watch it in slow mo while I took this screen shot:

After Alice gives Bella her bday present and Jasper wishes her a happy birthday (well, he starts to wish her a happy birthday and then says “Nevermind…”) we had this conversation:

Mr. Choice: Why is he mean?
UC: He just controlled her mind right there. And then afterwards he noticed/felt how mad she was. So he decided not to follow through with his birthday wish. Plus he has a really bad wig. So he doesn’t know how else to act

During the famous line “You’re my only reason to stay alive (awkward pause) if that’s what I am (awkward Pause),” Mr. Choice yelled, “HE IS NOT GOOD!”

When the blood fell to the floor I heard the biggest, fakest GASP of his life. And then utter laughter when Edward goes after Jasper & pushes Bella out of the way. And then lastly, there was some true concern for the piano.

During the birthday kiss by the truck- the one we’ve talked about many times (aka the one I heard in the theater when the screen went black)

Mr. Choice yells, “DID HE JUST ROCK IT!?” I laughed and said, “I told you about how it sounds like they’re having sex when you close your eyes.” And he said- “NO. LOOK.” Then rewound it (it took us like 5 hours to watch the movie with all the rewinding), and put it on slow mo. He’s right. Something happened. Maybe the gaffer took the mic from below and gave Rob the ultimate tickle or something, but he definitely, using Mr. Choice’s choice of words, “ROCKED IT”

Oh yeah Gaffer.... right there.... right there...

Tragedy occurs, Mr. Choice adds lines & we find out how to make an Edward fort after the jump!

And then TRAGEDY struck because Mr. Choice did NOT laugh at the “Famous Ladies Man” line. I rewound it, asked why he didn’t laugh and he said, “That’s not funny.”

But he did laugh at Edward’s apparitions. All of them. Every time. Multiple times.

And he laughed when Jake took off his shirt. After which he announced, “I think Jacob is  a better actor than Paddleston”

Mr. Choice: “Who is that new Indian? The one from Dances with Wolves?”
UC: No. That’s Harry of “Harry’s Fish Fry” (Clearly I crack myself up)

Mr. Choice:  (During the scene in the rain) “Oh look! Jacob got a hair cut… That’s where he’s been for the past 2 weeks”

Then halfway through the movie he asks, after finally hearing it enough to realize it’s important,

Mr. Choice: Who the hell is Alice? And why won’t she write Bella back? (I explain) “Don’t you think she’d stop writing after awhile?”

Then when Jacob jumps in window in Bella’s room with his famous line, “Hey,” Mr. Choice adds:

Mr. Choice: “Hey. Stop writing Edward’s sister. It’s creepy”

In the water, when Bella hits her head- he burst into laughter saying, “It’s hard to take some of this seriously. Some of it is SO bad” Then he proceeded to prove to me (by going slow-mo, yet again) how Edward looks like a cardboard cut out Edward while floating in the water. And said, “Hello, it’s me Edward- in cardboard form”

wanna turn me back into a box & make a fort out of me?

His additions to the dialogue were quite amusing. In fact, Mel Mel Rosenberg might want to call him up (after Summit gets Desplat to apologize for stealing his music 101 composition performance piece from 1997) and get some tips for Breaking Dawn:

When Alice first appears in Bella’s house he imagines she’s there to say, “Bitch, quite writing me!”

After the scene with Jacob in the kitchen, Mr. Choice says what we all think about movie Bella (and some think about book Bella), “What a bitch! That dude just saved your life like NINE times and you’re not even hot enough for saving once!”

Then when Jacob utters our favorite, “Quil-clout-lay” he asked, “Is that “I love you” in werewolf?”

During the DILFs infamous worst mistake known as the “Anne of Green Gables future scene,” Mr. Choice said “I like their khakis.” He has no idea that Stephenie actually wrote about khaki’s in the books.

When Emmet says “Hell yeah” to Bella’s request to become one of them, he muttered “Dushe bag” under his breath. I’m pretty sure his youth pastor wouldn’t approve of that language!

Overall Mr. Choice thought:

“It wasn’t bad. And it could have been good. I’m sorry- I know you love Chris Weitz and I know I’m not a director, but they had a lot of money for this film. The Cardboard Apparition Edward? The Wolves were good- Edward’s appearance did not need to be cheesy. He was cartoonish. He was like the Cheshire Cat appearing in Alice & Wonderland. Except he wasn’t a cat. He was a human. Or a vampire. Chris’ directing was NOT that much better than Catherine Hardwicke’s (UC: THE HORROR! BUT THERE WERE LESS ULTIMATE COUGARITAS INVOLVED!) The Khaki scene? That was unnecessary. There were many unnecessary scenes. 65% of it was good. But there was redundancy. If I had to hear Bella self-depreciate one more time or Edward tell her she’s his whole life, I was going to scream. The movie- the saga doesn’t have to be bad. It’s a good story. It shouldn’t be bad.

Mr. Choice: I’m definitely Team Jacob
UC: You wouldn’t be if you read the books. Or were a girl
Mr. Choice: But those were NOT his abs!

That’s true my love of 4 years, that is true. But THAT’S not why we love Edward. We love Edward for his skills in biting pillows & tearing headboards…. something you won’t understand…. well, not until you ask me to watch Breaking Dawn with you. And ya know what? I just may get naked for that viewing…….

Love,
UnintendedChoice

Ever need a clip from a random spot in one of the Twi films? Without fail LionandLambLove has it! Thanks guys!

Random thought for the day. You know our friend Janetrigs who we pretend to hate really, really hate? Well, she hates a lot of things- including diabetes. She and her friend are involved in a walk for an organization Kristen actually came out to support last year- JDRF. Here’s a little message from Jane Trigs:

(click to fully appreciate the brilliance of this)

Even though Moon & UC hate @janetrigs they LOVE her HATE of diabetes. Please give to Janetrigs, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Fundraising Walk.

-Give to JDRF because you hate @janetrigs, but appreciate her HATE of Diabetes
-OR Give to JDRF because you hate @janetrigs and want @Laurastarra to raise more $$ than @janetrigs OR
-Give to JDRF because Kristen told you to
-OR Give to JDRF because Ron told you to.

The JDRF Walk is this Sunday, June 6th and after Saturday, we promise to stop hounding you to give $$ to sick kids.

Oh hello there LTT, where have you been all my life?

Dear LTT and LTR,

It was a week ago (last Saturday, to be precise) that I first learned about you from a friend who will forever have a special place in my heart for sharing you with me. LTT & LTR, you have filled a hole in me that I didn’t realize existed. You see, ever since I first read Twilight last fall, I’ve been, well, slightly fully obsessed with all things Twilight and, especially Rob.

I mean, I haven’t bought any apparel; I’ve never purchased a magazine because the cover featured Rob or KStew (I mean, I’ve stolen borrowed them from friends, but that’s different); and I refused to pay full price for the New Moon DVD ($24.99—are you kidding me?). I get points for that, right? And, until last week, the only blog/website I’d used for information about Twilight was Stephenie Meyer’s own site. (Well, and People.com, but that’s not exclusively Twilight content.)

But you have given me a gift: I know now that I’m not crazy. I’m normal.

Lost count how many time's I've read these

Just because I’ve watched Twilight… um, more times than I count… even while cringing at the corniness of the movie and KStew’s mumbling, open-mouthed delivery of every line and emotion (is this the bitch face you write about?(Moon: No, but stick around and we’ll teach you!), that doesn’t make me crazy. The countless hours I’ve listened to the movie soundtracks on repeat, the insane number of times I’ve read the four books and Midnight Sun, the way when I’m reading Eclipse & Breaking Dawn I imagine how the directors will make it happen (the LEG HITCH, Hallelujah!!!!),  the way I replay certain scenes from the movies over and over (Edward first talking to Bella, Edward smirking while Mike asks Bella to prom, the first kiss, then in NM when they’re reunited in Italy… sigh)… there’s more, but I feel like I don’t need to tell you. Because you know (Moon: Oh girl, do we ever).

Although my best friends share my love of the books and movies, I’ve always had this intense feeling of guilt and sliminess: I’m lusting after a dirty (literally), awkwardly built (his hips sometimes look wider than his shoulders, and have you ever noticed how awkwardly he walks with his hunched shoulders? Moon: Oh we notice. Those are his “mothering hips”), smoking/cussing/alcoholic, smarmy guy 5 years younger than me.

Not that one, but just as good...

In truth, I’ve always feared that someone would catch and understand the gleam that comes into my eyes when Twilight (and hence Rob) comes up in conversation—do they see how truly inappropriate my fascination is? I know KStew wants her space and privacy, yet I crave photographs and news of Robsten, dying to factor that confirmed relationship (or not) into my fantasies of when I run into Rob, and he looks like he does in the Vanity Fair 2009 shoot (the photo with the cigarette?? OMG)… and he says to me, “Hello, my name is Edward Cullen.” And then he smells my throat… Well, you understand.

And that is why I will always be grateful to you, LTT & LTR. Because you do understand. You strike the perfect balance of obsessing and distancing yourself from that obsession with humor. Through you, I discovered the online archive of the Vanity Fair shoot (the video! the photos!). And so, while I will still never feel comfortable revealing the true extent of my Twilight/Rob obsession to my loved ones, at least now I know that I have kindred spirits. Normal, rational, intelligent women who say that it’s OK to feel this way.

Thank you, LTT & LTR, for providing me an outlet for my obsession.

Yours truly,

ThatsNormalGrlNC
