On the second day of Sparklemas...

...my blogger gave to me: two feline chagrins and an article written by the AP. With my "team" preference, as promised.

Team Edward vs. Team Jacob: Which side are you on?Christy did tell me that the article was edited for space--although she did insist on keeping my team preference in, because I told her y'all were looking forward to that--so my ( Read more... )

If I wasn't way up here in Nova Scotia, and if it wasn't for the fact Vlad would KILL me if I brought him another brother, I would adopt Edward Cullen Cat and RENAME HIM SOMETHING SENSIBLE. At a minimum, he could be Ed Lane Cat...

Also, good call on your "team." It's really the only sensible choice.

I was almost tempted to try and adopt Edward Cullen Cat, except I live in New York. Also, I don't like cats that much. But he might have changed me. HE MIGHT HAVE WARMED MY FROZEN HEART WITH HIS ICY MARBLE FUR.

Nobody has adopted Edward yet? Oh man. :( Breaks my heart.

I wish I could adopt the kitty. I really hope the person you mentioned is able to adopt him or someone else can real soon.

Yay, Peter Jackson!

I don't get why there even are 'teams'. I read all the books very closely to each other without knowing much about Twilight and there was not one second where I thought that Bella could choose Jacob over Edward. IMO Bella's preferences are very clear, that's why the love triangle only annoyed me to no end. Mostly, because I actually did like Jacob before he started being a jerk.
I also don't get why so many people (and somehow, even the author?) think that picking Jacob would mean a normal life - I think Bella makes an allusion like that, the white picket fence or something - when it is also stated that Jacob is immortal as much as the next vampire? And since Bella is not his imprinted-on beloved, she would still grow old and die? How did this never come up?

SMeyer's pretenses at competition or uncertainty over who Bella will choose are as lame and hollow as her "action" scenes. One gets the impression she was told she had to have some plot and drama mixed in with her great big mound of cotton-candy fluff, but did so only reluctantly.

I think they say that as long as Jacob fursplodes periodically, he won't age. Which means that if he retired from wolfing, he could get older.

Oh, right! Forgot about that. But still, isn't Bella (or the fans who actually give a crap about her, which I don't) worried that one day some random girl (or infant, who knows) will pass them by and there will be the repeat of the whole Sam/Leah/Emily drama?
I see why people would prefer Jacob over Edward, but not why he would be the 'safe' choice, you know? But then, this fandom puzzles me like no other.

Team Alice for the win!
