Comediva Pick: A Bad Lip-Reading of Twilight

Alright, so, here’s the thing about Twilight: on the one hand, it promotes abusive relationships, encourages submissiveness in women, oh, and it’s so poorly written it makes Perez Hilton’s blog read like Charles f***ing Dickens. On the other hand, it’s super fun to loathe. Some people rid themselves of aggression by taking kick-boxing classes. Others by smoking a fat blunt. Personally, I find immense satisfaction in ripping apart shitty literature — “shiterature,” if you will.

Twilight is so easy to shred into vampire sparkles that hating on the series has almost become a cliché. That said, this video is pretty freaking fang-tastic.

Note that the dialogue in this little piece of brilliance makes virtually no sense. In that way, I think it is the most spot-on fanfiction out there. If Stephanie Meyer could write characters who actually sounded like this, I’d say, “Slap me down and call me a Twi-hard.”

On a side note, if you can’t get enough of Bella and her eye-rolling, lip-biting shenanigans, check out the latest episode of BAMF Girls Club, right here at Comediva!
