What Google Knows About Twilight

So I was wandering around somewhere in the blogoshpere last week and I came across someone mentioning that they'd entered "Edward Cullen is..." into a search box on Google and one of the options that had popped up was "...right behind you." This cracked me up to no end (some days it doesn't take much; what can I say?) so I decided to give it a whirl myself to see what Google had to say about Twilight & Friends. Apparently, Edward Cullen is no longer right behind me, although someone may have been lurking at my place: FSE/the Edward Cullen standee does have a way of sneaking up on you!

First up, I googled "Twilight is..."

  • horrible
  • sexist [I'll admit that "feminist college-age STY" would be appalled]
  • love on a knife edge in Forks [wtf?!? I think this was a riddle of some sort...]
  • satanic [really?! yup - that's right: Stephenie is really a devil worshipper]
  • poorly written [er...]
  • retarded [Twitarded???]
  • overrated
  • better than Harry Potter [not going there...]
  • awful
  • crap

Why does it look like the haters spend waaaay more time googling random Twilight stuff than the people who adore Twilight??? They are aimless... wandering... google is their only friend...

Next, I did "Edward Cullen is..."

  • an abusive boyfriend
  • a fag [ha! someone has seen "the tuck"]
  • a stalker
  • real [would that it were so!]
  • so beautiful I creamed myself [JJ, have you been googling Edward again??]
  • hot
  • not real
  • a douchebag
  • how old
  • a vampire [really?!? you don't say...]

...and "Bella Swan is..."

  • a Mary Sue [I had to go look this up]
  • Stephenie Meyer [see above - lol]
  • annoying
  • an idiot
  • pathetic
  • pregnant
  • selfish
  • hot
  • a bad role model
  • played by ["I live under a rock!"]

Hmm...How about Robert Pattinson??? "Robert Pattinson is..."

  • dating
  • a jerk
  • a douche
  • dating Kristen Stewart
  • a virgin [ha!]
  • dead [screech!]
  • not hot
  • a fag [my gay friends wish...]
  • so hot
  • hot

...and just to round things out, "Kristen Stewart is..."

  • pregnant
  • weird
  • a horrible actress
  • dating
  • a snob
  • hot
  • awkward
  • a pothead
  • dating Robert Pattinson

Because I am a glutton for punishment, I also googled "Twilight fans are..."

  • insane [er, maybe?]
  • annoying [sometimes...]
  • violent [only when they have to sit next to smelly people on the train]
  • scary [fine, yes, we are. but mostly just to our S/Os and occasionally to RPatts...]

Did I mention I'm a TOTAL glutton for punishment? Perhaps also a tad narcissistic and/or vain? I decided to Google Twitarded is... cricket, cricket... Except this. It looks like Twitardia is going to have to be an off-the-grid militia. At least for a little while. Sorry. But after we off all the bad guys it'll totally be a Twilight utopia! Twitarded pinky-swear.

  4. A Twitarded militia?! Fucking hilarious!! I can see us all now, lining up with weapons in one hand, Pocket Edward in the other. :) Cuz that's how you know it would happen!

    ReplyDelete
  5. Wait, if we have weapons in one hand and PE in the other, how would we hold our drinks? This plan may need more work...

    ReplyDelete
  6. i have an idea! i just googled "twitarded is awesome" like 10 times in hopes of google catching on. if we all google that, when Twitarded is googled, it will eventually suggest "is awesome"... how freakin sweet would that be? we need to spread the message! lol!!! ;)

    love you girlies!

  7. Kristin- you can buy beer drinkng hats off the internet. Here's one site: http://www.shopgadgetsandgizmos.com/product/15187/?gclid=CKCoqor6qZ0CFR5HagodNjRqjA
    Hope that helps.

    Screw what the haters say, at least we don't go about trashing THEIR fandoms (and believe me, some of my Twilight hating friends love Transformers, and I don't go bashing Optimus Prime infront of them, not even when I'm hammered.

    ReplyDelete

    single
    smells bad
    singer
    smoker
    jealous
    beautiful
    the most beautiful man on earth

    Kinda lame

  10. I haven't even read all this (I skimmed--freaking kids are screaming at me that they need to go to bed or something) but all I am going to say is that LatchkeyWife and I have guns. We are both terrible shots (sorry LKW if I am giving away too much here) and they might be hunting guns but we got 'em. Just wanted you to know Twitardia will not go down easily, well maybe easily, but not unarmed.

  12. For edward cullen or Robert pattinson it should say::

    Creamworthy
    a walking wet dream
    everyones desire


    any of those work

    ReplyDelete
  13. that is so weird. I don't understand why people who hate Twilight put any fucking effort into hating Twilight. I just want to tell them, stop with your anti blogs, your anti pics... The only peole looking at their gay shit is people who LOVE twilight and feel like laughing. Right?

    ReplyDelete
  14. @ Honolulu Girl, I agree, if you hate something that much, surely you'd just ignore it?!

    One of the DJs on the radio was doing this yesterday (although obv not with Twilight). Go and Google 'what are' ;o)

    ReplyDelete
  15. Wooo! Sorry, had to just post my VW here - cully! Cute nickname huh? lol

    ReplyDelete
  16. I love pinky swears! You point the way STY and I am armed, ready, willing and able to fight. You know I'm all about Twitarded World Dom. *wink wink*

  17. I did Robert Pattinson is... on yahoo
    -hot
    -bothered
    -ugly
    -not hot
    I would totally add doable to that list

    Edward Cullen is... on yahoo
    -Isabella Swan (Interesting...)
    -mine
    -ugly

    Where's the love yahoo???!
    I will never understand why, when people 'hate' something, they put so much effort in to hating it?! Way to waste your energy Mr. or Mrs. Joe Blow

    VW "frimpett" I'm gonna start tossing this into convos for the hell of it. I was SO frimpett!!

  18. You are brilliant! A Twitarded Militia!
    So, I know that we have weapons, if necessary (Vit R and LKW have hunting guns, and I have pointy butter-knives and pepper spray), BUT what I NEED to know before I honour and defend Twitardia against the jealous ignoramuses of the world is: What are we going to wear??? ;D

    ReplyDelete
  19. @ awcrap - the Bella birthday dress of course ;o)

    ReplyDelete
  20. Down with the haters. I've got skillz with a gun - er, I just need someone to supply me with one.its been a while :)

    My theory is most of the haters just done get it..plain & simple - or they do get it and are totes embarrassed to admit it. Man up and claim the love I say.

    Twilitia - has a nice ring to it, no?

    ReplyDelete
  21. HA!!! "a Mary Sue"

    That's priceless.

    ReplyDelete
  22. *giggles* great post!! I start to imagine that we all live in a Twi-bubble, while the rest of the world thinks we lost our minds... Anyway, I don't really care what they all think...

    Happy Twi-bubble!

    ReplyDelete
  23. My Google search top article:
    How Twilight Is Destroying America and Harming Our Nation's Youth .... LOL!!! I had no clue there were so many confused individuals out there.

    I pity them.

    ReplyDelete
  24. YA, we have guns!! Like @VitaminR said! But I don't just have hunting guns my friends.... I have some nice handguns too - I think my friend the 9MM will be just what the doctor ordered to handle any WAR against the Twitards! (Oh, and I'm not a bad shot with that one!! OK, maybe I am... but I can shoot up someone's knees like no one's business!!)

    And I just had to google "Latchkey Wife is..." and I got zilch! At least it didn't say: a slut, a whore, a dirty mouth... er, wait a minute, maybe I'd have liked that! Gah, what is wrong with me??!

    ReplyDelete
  25. @Charla - I like your thinking. I'm off to Google "Twitarded is awesome."

    ReplyDelete
  26. I can see us know: an army of chicks in shiny green Bella dresses, brandishing assorted weapons and Mini-Edward action figures, all wearing our drinking hats, loaded and cursing up a storm... If that doesn't make anyone turn tail and run for their lives, i don't know what would!!! hahahaaa...

    : )

    And is it just me or is Google looking decidedly "Team Jacob"?? Hmmm...

    ReplyDelete
  27. Count me in on the militia. I have 2 pitbulls (that will lick someone to death) and a parakeet that likes to bite people.

    ReplyDelete
  28. @ Meg, lol at your parakeet. I'm thinking we need a battle song - I'm thinking we adopt and rename the Muse ditty 'Knights of Twitardia' ;o)

    ReplyDelete
  29. Meant to comment on that mental image too STY, have to say, it even scares me a little. Have to say I was feeling a tiny bit scared anyway after Latchkey Wife's comment lol

    ReplyDelete
  30. @STY - Sounds like a fucking badass party to me! I'm in!

    ReplyDelete
  31. @ Stan - I just googled 'What are' and up came "what are these strawberries doing on my nipples i need them for the fruit salad"
    Very interesting...

    ReplyDelete
  32. Hmmmm...a militia...you guys are envisioning guns...why am I envisioning holsters packing sparkle peens? OMG, I need more coffee...

    ReplyDelete
  33. I have played the Google game with my first name (as I'm sure most people have)... This is a brilliant post! (Though I'm confused -- did you find and/or make the W.A.T. poster?)

    ReplyDelete
  34. Guns make me uncomfortable. I'll be in charge of refilling the drinking hats, okay?

  36. My "first" post was supposed to be funny, btw... guess not.

    I also like to play the "Google Trends" game. Go to Google and type in "Google trends" and see the wacky things people are searching for.

  37. Fun fact: i am currently holding my newly purchased advanced screening tickets for new moon... SQUUUEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  38. OME- thatpic of Robward is my FAVORITE Edward *sigh* That's how I envision Tattward......my my my.....

    Anyway, back to the point at hand. I've got my Mini E ready. And we can always use our Mini Bellas as ammunition as I still haven't found anything worthwhile to do with that skank.

    ReplyDelete
  39. I don't want Twitarded to come up on google, for now it's off the grid fucktastic. As soon as it populates a google search it loses something - like being that off the wall girl with a piercing, than a month later it's all the f'ing teen bop rage. UGH. I like Twitarded being the beautiful hidden gem it is.

    Twitarded is... my oasis from the cookie cutter crap

    ReplyDelete
  40. So I couldn't help myself I googled VitaminR--some crazy shite came up (and actually the second thing to come up was my post with @LatchkeyWife!) BUT the best by fard was this:

    vitaminR is a PantyLicker in the Gamerz Needs - For All Your Gaming Needs!. View vitaminR

    Suhweet!

  41. Good gawd I need to edit before I click. It sounds like I have already opened the liqour cabinet in my previous comment-hey JJ will you pass me that flask?

  42. sorry, SM, but bella couldn't be more of a mary sue.

  43. Twitarded food for thought as always...

    Twilitia sounds like Renesmee's younger sibling...both names bite...in the non vampire sense.

    Have a great day ladies.

    ReplyDelete
  44. Try as we might to hate the haters they only give us fuel for the fire. (We don't need no water let the mothaf*cher burn)I would toatlly join a Twitarded Militia. I could train in hand to hand combat.

    ReplyDelete
  45. apparently I am not too big of a help I can't even swear properly...

  46. you made me laugh so hard i think i peed a little.

    ReplyDelete
  47. Ha! My dad has accused me of "devil worship". Poor guy just doesn't know an innocent Twitard when he sees one...What is up people?? It must be some real old school thinking goin on. Gotta go work on my altar....

    This amused me highly.
    But i read the article "how twilight is destroying..." and i kind of enjoyed it. it didn't say anything i havent heard before. doesnt change my addiction. i would honestly suggest reading it, twitards. i had to leave me 2 cents.
    i side mostly with this though: "Twilight is one of the best books I have ever read, I am 13 and I have never read anything as good. It had me so hooked that I managed to finish all of the series in less than a month, and then had me begging for more! The only crime that this film has commited is not being long enough for people like me to enjoy even more of! I don't understand why people who hate it spend so much time hating it! If you don't like it why don't you shut up and let us have our time, in a bit surely you will like something that we don't and we will not go on... Why not spend your time on something you love rather than wasting it on complaining about one of the biggest films of our time? I don't mean to offend anyone... lyl x" ~danzii

    there was also a 14 year old who sounded much older than us all. i agree with her, to an extent, but i dont take her side on anything.

    an amusing afterthought: when i tried to first go to twilight tonight i was taken to this site: azt.com scared the crap out of me. i thought twitardia was no more. almost shed a tear. but then i went to my best friend, google, and search for it, then all was well. <3 google may not have great search records for twitard, but it's the greatest online friend i have. wikipedia is next. <3

    another afterthought, i am ready and willing to join the twitardlitia. just hand me the book, the PE, and a glass. ;]

  49. TOTAL. WAR. AGAINST. TWITARDS.

    So anyone who doesn't like twitarded is just a T.W.A.T. and a douchy one at that.

    ReplyDelete
  50. hahaha, earlier this morning i googled "Twilight is for", and the possibilities it brought up were: fat chicks, idiots, losers, girls, emos, retards. lol, i took a screen shot and posted it on facebook a.s.a.p.
