[quote:wisdomknight:MV8xNTkxNjU5XzI2MzA1NTYzXzZGMkY5MzI3] [quote:Greg_B.] Twilight and True Blood are ghey. They both took the thunder from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, which revolutionized the way people think about Vampires and the paranormal, especially as they relate to teenagers and young adults. Buffy is classic, academic. Twilight and True Blood are derivative, weak and disposable. [/quote] :iamwith: [/quote]
Original Message
I read the series "Twilight", and found them to be very well written. I love to read, I'm not a teenager, but enjoyed reading them anyway. I have not seen the movies. Since, the movies have been coming out I have been seeing a new trend, maybe not so new.
Teenagers have a new game they are playing and it comes from these series. They are running around acting like vampires. One group will be on Edwards side and one group will be on Jacks side. Edwards side bites, I'm not saying nibbling, I'm saying bites; breaking skin, leaving teeth marks because they are vampires. They say they are vampires.
I work in an apartment community and are having to evict several persons with teenagers who are going around calling them selves vampires and biting others. This week has been, hell. Does anybody else see this trend? Is it happening in your area?
