I want one so badly. If only that screen control was an iPad that could detach off the wall…

However, nobody quite drives the point home like Reasoning With Vampires. RwV is not just a random funny rant about bad writing – RwV is a funny rant about bad writing with supporting evidence. As the author notes:

It’s too easy for Twilunatics to dismiss claims that Stephenie Meyer is a bad writer, because “you’re just jealous/dense/unromantic/uncool.” When I write that Stephenie Meyer is a bad writer, it’s not merely an opinion. I can prove it over, and over, and over, and over…

The site is full of win, and is well worth a few hours of your browsing time. My favourite so far: WTF? Faces, brought to you by Edward Cullen, pages 1-100 of Twilight.

Awesome!

They’ve been around in some form or another since 1983 and I’d never heard of them before. But a few songs in and they’re my new favourite comedy music group. I leave you with a few juicy samples (some are NSFW).

Dogging: (look it up!)

It isn’t too late to be famous:

And the sweetest but grouchiest ballad ever:

There’s plenty more on Youtube. Go!
