The Axiomatic Musings of a Teen who ACTUALLY ENJOYS TWILIGHT.

[Apologies for no post in a while! I've been hanging out with my friends a lot :)]

Yeah, I like Twilight. I like the books and I liked the movie. Sue me.

I've been wanting to do this rant for a while because it's something I really find annoying. I'm getting really sick of Twi-haters. Any time I feel like making my facebook status Twilight related, I'm bombarded with hate comments telling me how stupid it is and how poorly written it is, etc.
IT'S GETTING OLD.
See, teens like to fit in. But, almost as much as they like to fit in, teens like to feel smug about sticking out. We take a sense of pride in being able to say, "i don't like what all the sheep like because that makes me original". It's part of the reason I don't wear Hollister brand (other than the fact it's ridiculously expensive and not even that pretty). That's all well and good. If you feel proud and smug about that, GREAT!
Don't bother me about it.
Keep it to yourself, really. If you want to make yourself feel important, go ahead and hate Twilight. But it's downright rude and disrespectful to rub it in other people's faces. Because by telling someone, "You like Twilight, but I don't, because I'm not a sheep" you're effectively saying that the other person is a sheep. And that's just not nice. This doesn't just go for Twilight haters but for any other obnoxious people out there. Cut it out.

Let us Twi-Hards live in peace :).

P.S. If you're wondering about Sal, I am too. He's in Arizona and hasn't called me since Thursday. WHATEVER. Today would have been 11 months. WHAT-FREAKING-EVER.
