Actually I was just thinking about making some kind of stamp like this the other day. I thought about it after seeing a lady at my college wearing a "Team Jacob: Real men don't sparkle" shirt. You beat me to it. I'm sort of glad you did, though, This stamp is a lot better than anything I could have attempted, it looks awesome!

I agree it is. Real men are just human. They don't turn into anything, they aren't immortal, and they don't fly.
You're Welcome!

Exactly. The people that rant about hating it yet can't say why besides its popular are probably the worst. Though, when I read the fourth, I had to stop reading at a certain point because I couldn't believe SM was taking the book in that direction. I didn't pick it back up until a significant amount of time had passed of me thinking how stupid a plot twist to throw in a book.

Agreed, definitely...although I must say I was glad to hear other people disliked it, whatever their reasoning. I'm terribly oblivious to pop culture in spite of being only 20, so was coerced into reading the books (three were out at the time) by a friend without knowing they were popular. And then suddenly I found out they WERE popular, and thought I must be broken for disliking them (since I actually like or have liked several other popular series, like Harry Potter and Pokemon). Then I stumbled onto a liveJournal post that had someone going through and pointing out all of the weird stuff I'd noticed, and all of the people agreeing with said post, and heaved a sigh of relief. Not that I'm terribly opposed to being the only person to dislike things...but like I said: I'm generally a very easily pleased person, so me disliking something was weird enough without me being the only person of that opinion.
.......I'll shut up about that now. =3=' The most upsetting part about today is not being able to use plz accounts. *sigh*
Considering all of the things I've heard about it, I'm not really surprised, lmao. I ALMOST look forward to reading it, just to see how exaggerated/understated all of the rumors are.

Do you still have the link to this livejournal post? I'd definitely like to take a look at it. (And I agree, I've been wanting to use plz all day today, but it's either Gaga or a werewolf.) Someday, being an English major, I hope to write a paper that tears apart the series as well as her separate book, The Host and how pop culture follows it almost blindly.
In a sad way, I look forward to the movies just to see if they go along with the books. I'm big into movies following the books and can even point out when the wrong characters say a certain line (oh the 5th HP film). When I went and saw New Moon, I laughed the entire time. Maybe it was a good thing I waited 'til it was almost out of theatres.
