People Who Make Fun of Twilight Can Be Funny, Too!

For the sake of full disclosure, I don't watch Craig Ferguson's late-nite show (mostly because most of my evening activities involve Twilight, fanfic, or blogging, and there's not even enough time for all of that most days!), but I've seen enough to know that he's a funny dude. Despite the fact that he is dissing the precious, he's doing it in his charming Scottish accent, so I'll allow it...

This is probably the worst impression of JK Rowling and Stephenie Meyer that I've ever seen (ok I haven't seen many... or any...), but that's part what makes it so funny. That and the fact that while I won't name names, a certain "someone"[-ish] near and dear to all of our hearts makes a special guest appearance...

Thanks to Pippa for sending me the link to this video!



This second one I saw a while back and meant to post it then but then "OMG is THAT A PENNY?! No?! A SHINY BOTTLECAP?! oh but it's SO pretty..." er, well, I must have seen something shiny and I never got around to it... (you know how it is - I'm like a vampire in my level of distractability - it's a wonder I leave the house fully clothed most days...). But Craig Ferguson's still raking Twilight over the coals, and I still laughed out loud. Again, it might just be the accent... What IS it about an accent?! And I mean a foreign accent. Specifically English, Irish, Scottish--something along those lines (just not Jersey... Or anything specific to the continental US, for that matter). It's like the icing on the Robert Pattinson cake, you know?? He'd still be hot without it, but WITH it, he's just over-the-edge, drives-us-all-totally-nutters hawt!



I don't really have a good segue for this next one but what the hell... It also sorta makes fun of Twilight, but I love Kevin Smith and if he wants to poke fun a tad and try to calm all the disgruntled non-Twi Comic Con attendees with promises of hot 18-year-old Twi Con attendees if everyone can just be patient, I'll allow it. I'm sure the air is still crackling with estrogen in the ballroom where he's speaking, since it's where the Twilight sneak-peeks were screened. Hell - I imagine the wallpaper is still peeling and the acoustic ceiling tiles are still recovering from the unprecedented barrage of SQUEEE!!!-ing and shrieking they absorbed.





Thanks to all you awesome peeps for seeing me through my earlier case of The Mondays! I took your collective advice, muddled though the workday, and then immersed myself in Twilight goodness and flair. 'Cause flair always feels good, especially when you aren't wearing it to please anyone but yourself...

You know the only thing better than Twilight flair? Twitarded flair! Thanks to Lys for designing and making these awesome buttons for us! Visit her at Etsy (here @ Little Cowgirl Store) and tell her the whore flaps at Twitarded sent you! [Note: Lys is NOT selling these at her Etsy store - please check back here later for details on how you can get your hot little hands on one of these babies!]

  1. Ok, I'm slaving in a hot kitchen, a tropical storn is supposed to hit tomorrow but these clips just made my day. One daughter heard Harry Potter and came running over and didn't quite understand why the author of HP could fart money. Hilarious! Thanks for making me crack up and I am soooo going to represent and get my twitarded pin!

  3. Did Craig call my Edward a douche bag? How dare he! And loooove Kevin Smith - he's so hilarious - Fang Boy. I totally wish I could fart money. God would that solve a lot of problems. What? Need a new roof on the house? Phfffffftttt... here you go!

    I guess I'm not the only one who's glad to see Monday over!

  5. Kevin Smith was freaking hilarious! It's nice when people point out that people who look like a bunch of assholes are making fun of a bunch of other people who look like assholes - when that's why they are all together in the first place:) I so wish I had gotten to be one of those a-holes:)

  6. Oh shit! lol those were hilarious!!! I loved it when they busted out the pocket Edward and JK started checking out the abs and ass... and then making fun of Robs bouffant.. I'm glad it looks a little toned down in new moon lol.

    Kevin Smith makes me laugh and creeps me out at the same time :)

  7. That's so random, I NEVER watch Craig Ferguson either, but I did happen to catch that skit in the background the other night!

    He really doesn't get Twilight. Have you seen his interview with Jennifer Love Hewitt? She goes on and on about sexy Edward to him, and he just squints at her in confusion! Hilarious

  11. I've never watched Craig before, but the JK/Steph skit is pee your pants funny. I'm snorting out loud on my lunch break with headphones plugged into my PC. That totally will get me through the end of the day.

    Oh, and LOVE the twitarded buttons :)

  13. The best of Kevin Smith's thing was actually much later in his presentation . . .when he admitted that his kid was obsessed with Twilight and bitched because he couldn't walk the floor and pick up Twilight freebies for her. His fans started donating things they'd made about Twilight . . .it was PRECIOUS.

    To second CRAZY PERSON: I seez the buttons. I MUST HAVE THIS MERCH! Too good not to have!

  16. Oh those Craig Ferguson vids were hilarious! Especially the JK/SM one with Pocket Edward! Thank you for sharing those. I had already seen the TwiCon one but it made me smile yet again.

    I am so looking forward to buying Twitarded merch and more pins (I have a bad habit of losing them). Everyone must be Team Twitarded at opening night of New Moon!
