beckyblurtsout: way hotter than edward cullen
xtugboatcaptain: edward cullen looks too much like a dead person
xtugboatcaptain: i wonder if i should watch twlight
beckyblurtsout: he looks like a douchebag
xtugboatcaptain: or maybe wait for the new one
beckyblurtsout: it's so bad
beckyblurtsout: it's SO bad
beckyblurtsout: SOOOOO BAAAADDD
xtugboatcaptain: i bet he's more attractive in the new one. the 17 year old.
beckyblurtsout: but
xtugboatcaptain: hahahah
beckyblurtsout: if you're stoned
beckyblurtsout: it'll probably be good-bad
xtugboatcaptain: want me to tell you something i've never told anyone?
xtugboatcaptain: in my entire life?
beckyblurtsout: what?
beckyblurtsout: WHAAT?
xtugboatcaptain: at the height of the book series, before it was a movie
xtugboatcaptain: i... knew they were awful, you know?
xtugboatcaptain: and written for preteens
xtugboatcaptain: but hearing katie talk about it...
beckyblurtsout: but you read them?
xtugboatcaptain: so i downloaded them.
xtugboatcaptain: and i tired reading it but it was so, so awful.
beckyblurtsout: hahaha
beckyblurtsout: my friend sam read them all
beckyblurtsout: she loves them
xtugboatcaptain: and then i was stoned and bored one afternoon
xtugboatcaptain: and i started to read it again
xtugboatcaptain: and over the course of the next week all i did was get stoned and read the entire series
beckyblurtsout: hahahahah
xtugboatcaptain: because for some reason i was like, CURIOUS about how it all ended
xtugboatcaptain: but i could only tolerate it when i was stoned?
