Harry Potter oder Twilight Article: Harry Potter is the cure to a Twilight addiction.

Harry Potter is the cure to a Twilight addiction.

posted by 11Anime_Fool

So, Du like Harry Potter? What about Twilight?
I've read (and watched) them both.
When I was twelve I picked up a paper back cover of "Twilight" at the airport for something to read on my plane ride home. I did become quite infatuated with the series, tearing through the second, third and fourth books. I went on this Fan club on my old account (which I have long since abandoned) and talked trash about Harry Potter, and talked about how wonderful Twilight was. I talked about Twilight like it was my Bible, and mocked Harry Potter (which I knew Weiter to nothing about). However, when I was thirteen, I picked up Harry Potter and the Philosopher's stone, just to see what all of the fuss was about. I immediately fell in Liebe with the series, staying up all hours of the night just to find out what would happen next. I began to realize how flat and shapeless the storyline of the Twilight Saga really was. It amazed me, time and time again how much foreshadowing was spread through out the whole Harry Potter series, and how predictable Twilight was. I saw the depth in every aspect of Harry Potter, aspects that Twilight lacked. My Twihard phase was snuffed out after Lesen book one of Harry Potter (BELIEVE ME. I was a Twilight addict, the kind they make fun of on "Vampires Suck") and I can say that I won't ever reach for the black and red volumes of Twilight again.

11Anime_Fool Does my honesty anger you?

cassie-1-2-3 Perhaps it's a useful antidote if you find your "addiction" a problem. Though trading one "addiction" for another has never really worked out for anyone. If you're trying to give advice, I have to say this won't work for everyone, and not everyone needs to be cured. If you're simply sharing your personal experience, I'm glad you've found something you love.

11Anime_Fool I used the term "addict" in an attempt to not offend anyone by calling them a "Twihard." That's all. I really like Harry Potter, so if I mentioned being "addicted" to Harry Potter, I will go back and fix it. I'm simply trying to say that after reading the Harry Potter series it is very difficult for me to appreciate a story that's as flat lined as Twilight. and yes, I am partially sharing personal experience, I have found a series I can be *healthily* in love with.

smallypuppy22 Yah come to the potterhead side, we have cookies :D

11Anime_Fool HP lover since...going on two years :D

Sandfire_Paiger Its true! I was on the Twilight side very strongly. Then I read Harry Potter... I still HIGHLY respect Twilight though!

emilyroxx My parents had to take away my Twilight books because they said that I was getting too obsessed with them. I'm not ALMOST as obsessed with HP as I was with Twilight and my parents encourage it. Twilight, they said, caused me to 'freak out' as they put it. During my Twilight-obsessed phase, I would talk about nothing else but Twilight, and if someone bad-mouthed it, I would ATTACK them. Trust me, they might both be obsessions, but Twilight is 100x more unhealthy an obsession than Harry Potter, Cassie.

cassie-1-2-3 I doubt it. That just sounds like your personal was of dealing with things isn't very great.

wotcher-tonks I had an un-healthy obsession too...Used to bad-mouth Harry Potter an everything! I got pissed, and I mean PISSED when I heard Vampires Suck came out. My brothers would make fun of me when I read Twilight and I would start attacking them. Harry was MY cure too. I stopped liking Twilight the instant I read the first word of Harry Potter. Now, I understand that some people don't like what I do. Now I gotz me a healthy obsession ;) I'm getting rid of my Twilight books now, I'm sort of ashamed to have them on my shelf. (Personal reasons, memories of being such a psycho fan.)

youknowit101 That sounds like growing up instead of being cured by books for all of you. It looks like this only happens to kids who read Twilight when they're young, then read harry Potter when they're older. The main factor is that you're older and you're better at coping with excitement.

wotcher-tonks ^Errr...I'm only 13...I still can't sit still in school, I definitely can't cope with excitement...

youknowit101 At your age you are learning how to cope with excitement. If you still get pissed when somebody doesn't like Harry Potter, then I'll agree that you haven't matured. That's a question you'll have to answer for yourself.

wotcher-tonks I just get pissed when people bash the series when they haven't even read it.

simpleplan youknowit100 right your just growing up :P

zanhar1 I hear you anime_fool I've been there. I was a twilight fan when I was 13 and used to hate Harry Potter that changed when my friend dragged me to see OotP and I saw Bellatrix that's when I decided to give the books another chance. I loved them. But I still didnt dislike twilight then, I started disliking it when everything became about it. All the "hey isn't twilight awesome" twilight this twilight that got annoying. It became so popular that they made twilight underpants! That's what did it for me lol.

lostandhp4ever I think it´s great when people read both of them. Because I hate it when someone says Twilight sucks and never reads Twilight and doesn´t even know why Twilight sucks. Or when someone says that Harry Potter sucks and never reads HP and doesn´t really know Harry Potter. So I think it´s great that you read both books to make your own opinion. And yeah you are right Harry Potter is much better ;-)

Lunalovely Are you sure your article isnt about my life? Twilighter at 11 years?Hating on HP? obsessed with Twilight for two years? Being cured at 13 by HP? Yeah that's my life.

A Mini-Rant About Vampire (Beware)

posted by GemonkDruid

(Warning: Lots of swearing. Sorry, but it's the only way to get my point across.)

Okay, let's get this over with- THE CULLENS ARE NOT FUCKING VAMPIRES. I don't know what the hell they are, but they are not vampires.

Sunlight: A vampire cannot go into the sunlight, as they will burn. There are a few exceptions though; In Romania, there are special vamps called Moroi, Dhampirs, and Strogoi (e.g. Vampire Academy). Also, Vampire could wear special magical jewellry that can let them go out in the sunlight (e.g. Vampire Diaries, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel).

In Twilight, there is none of this....

MyronPwnsBella's Anti-Twilight Story.

posted by MyronPwnsBella

There once was a seventeen Jahr old girl named Sandy. One Tag in July 2008, she saw her sister, Astrid Lesen a book with a slightly torn red ribbon on it. Sandy curiously asked Astrid what she was reading. Astrid told it was part of a book series called Twilight and that it was really good. Sandy has a few doubts but decided to go ahead and read it. When she did, she liked the Twilight Series. Sandy wasn't usually interested in teen romance a whole lot of the time and Mehr often liked stuff with a huge amount of action in it, but she really liked it and wanted to read the other two. Sandy...

Why would they have an all British cast?

Liebe vs. Liebe vs. Obsession: The Natural Progression of a Romantic Relationship

posted by cassie-1-2-3

The plain text is a copy/past of link.
The bold text is my own add ins to relate the situations to Bella and Edward

Liebe is a tricky emotion. There are some things that feel like Liebe but they are much too superficial to be the real thing. Real Liebe takes time and doesn't happen overnight. Here are three things that people often confuse for love.

I don’t personally believe that Liebe can really be defined Von anyone, but oh well. People like to try new things.

Lust A.k.a, Twilight

Lust is the feeling that is often mistaken for Liebe at first sight. Lust is an intense and sudden attraction to somebody...
