	Actually, that might not be so bad. In fact, it might even be good. (Reply to this)

You cut off the quote right before my favorite part:
(subtext: "You must not love me BUT I LOVE YOU but stay away BUT NOT TOO FAR AWAY let me stare at you NO I MUSTN'T but I will LET ME TOE-LOOP MY FEELINGS don't look at me EXCEPT DO I am dangerous TIME TO SPARKLE")

But yeah, I'd totally watch Twilight on Ice. Sparkling would be expected, and nobody would be expected to spew any purple prose.

	Have we sent all the Twilight stuff to the cornfield, then? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I think we have for the moment. Many people are sick of Twilight since it has taken over many of the communities recently. Maybe news or wanks of epic proportions are acceptable, but not the small stuff. At least until all the hype has died down? (I'm just assuming all this based on what seems to be the general consensus.)

Not that I mind all the Twilight stuff. I love it in a weird way.

	Twilight has not been officially cornfielded. Nothing wrong with posting Twilight items, unless you catch one of the mods on a bad day. I pretty much used up my fit of modly pique banning death notices, but snacky may have some rage saved up. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	No no, see, Edward has to be like David Bowie, and they have to be on rollerskates. Also, they should probably sing, and it is required that the line "Do I dazzle you?" be spoken, preferably while skating by Bella and doing a relaxed sort of turn around, maybe while holding his hand out. OKAY BASICALLY MAKE IT XANADU WITH VAMPIRES. And David Bowie. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	See, David Bowie is one person on the face of the Earth who could say, "Do I dazzle you?" and it would be awesome and cool instead of an embarrassment to the entire flippin' human race. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Actually, a friend pointed out that this whole passage:

"You really shouldn't do that to people," I criticized. "It's hardly fair."

"Do what?"

"Dazzle them like that - She's probably hyperventilating in the kitchen right now."

He seemed confused.

"Oh, come on," I said dubiously." You have to know the effect you have on people."

He tilted his head to one side, his eyes were curious. " I dazzle people?"

"You haven't noticed? Do you think everybody gets their way so easily?"

He ignored my questions. "Do I dazzle you?"

"Frequently," I admitted.

Reads a lot better if you imagine the conversation being between the Ninth Doctor and Rose, after he's just confused an alien bureaucrat into letting them do something they shouldn't be doing. And then something blows up, and they have to stop an invasion.

I'm not even a Rose fan, but I'd still love to hear Eccleston say, quizzically, "Do I dazzle you?"

	You're right. Mr. Eccleston could pull that off. But he'd still have to work a lot harder at it than David Bowie. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	He could ask me that, and as a response I would hyperventilate and fall over, twitching and grinning and drooling. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	Ooo, how about Twilight on Ice in Space? Edward will manage to keep his balance, doing spectacular zero-g spins and still somehow managing to land back on the ice. Bella will... float around and manage to smack herself on every protruding surface available (and then some). And then they will SPARKLE. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Let the record show that vampire baseball would be great! They could play night games at Wrigley Field without any lights! Also, the batboy puns would abound!! ...Of course, I think a vampire would rather be caught dead than in pinstriped white trousers, but let's just hope that the Mets never turn into vampires, okay?

	I think it's a measure of how much I've been reading about Twilight that the thing that stood out the most was KStew's dress. It looks like it was made out of black saran wrap. (Reply to this)(Thread)
