Headmaster: No Vampires at Our School
 
http://www.thebostonchannel.com/cnn-...75/detail.html

BOSTON -- The headmaster of one of the city's most prestigious exam schools is dealing with an unusual rumor sweeping student classrooms.

There are no vampires at Boston Latin School, says headmaster Lynne Moone Teta.

Seriously.

Students at the school, which was founded in 1635, began e-mailing news organizations Wednesday night with the strange story of vampires roaming the halls.

"Supposedly 3 students believe that they are vampires and today when a student was bitten the police were informed," wrote one student in a message to TheBostonChannel.com. "I heard that one girl was arrested another suspended."

Police, however, denied reports that anyone at the school was bitten.

As far as I'm concerned, this is just more proof that kids read too much Twilight. They even mention Twilight at the end of the article. It is for reasons like this that I see Twilight, and the growing horde of rabid fangirls, as a blight upon our society.

Beneath the Shadows 04-12-2009 05:32 PM

"Growing horde?" My impression is that the hype is dying down, as I've heard practically nothing about it in quite a while. Then again, I simply don't have the time or inclination to pay it any attention, so...

lmao... Twilight is brainwashing people

HavelockV 04-13-2009 07:17 AM

It sounds almost like a real-life version of the South Park episode, 'The Ungroundable'. Rather absurd, actually, that these whelps should be taking such a mediocre adolescent vampire story so seriously.

korinna5555 04-13-2009 08:26 AM

I LOVE that episode! XDDD

Tam Li Hua 04-13-2009 11:58 AM

Wow. That's funny. XD

Then again, if a kid was going around biting people, it was probably best to remove him for a little while. x_x;;

becky 04-13-2009 12:02 PM

i bet that school has all kinds of diseases, like AIDs and such

Agent17 04-14-2009 03:29 PM

How lovely.

Ever since Twilight, people have been seeing Vampires in their soup.

Apathy's_Child 04-14-2009 03:33 PM

Lately I've been getting an urge to read at least the first Twilight book, due to the suspicion that something this lame deserves my full powers of denigration.

becky 04-14-2009 03:35 PM

i read it, its about love, desire and some vamp fighting. it was very werid.

Porcelain 04-19-2009 11:59 PM

*sigh*
People used to have a degree of respect for vampyres. Then came Twilight-obsessed emo kids, now known as "vampire kids hardxcorelolwtf" or something like that. I seriously see kids hanging around the city, with those scarecrow fang caps and drinking tomato juice o.o
It's just like how people used to respect goths. Like, they would just mind their own business and no one would care too much. Now you can't friggin walk down the street without being called emo. or bashed for being emo. argh.

Slap Your Love 04-20-2009 12:08 PM

Did you know "to" doesn't have a zero digit in the word? Crazy shit huh?

And you cannot be truth itself, perhaps truthful is what you meant.

Hey, why five periods? Doesn't one indicate the end of a sentence?

Doesn't matter. Vampire obsession began with Twilight for a lot of youngsters, which naturally segues [sp?] into wanting to be the blood-sucking type.

Ironically enough, I thought the only good character in the first book was the one who kidnapped Bella and was going to eat her. I was mad that they killed him. >__<

PrInCeSs 0f G0tH 04-20-2009 12:29 PM

0f c0urse they sh0uld have killed him 0r else the film w0uld be inc0mplete with0ut bella,,,

Tam Li Hua 04-20-2009 12:31 PM

I haven't seen the movie, but I read the first book; that was all I could handle, to be honest.

As for Slap Your Love, I tend to agree with him when it comes to your typing, unfortunately. And trust me, not everyone's going to be as nice as he was about it. :/

PrInCeSs 0f G0tH 04-20-2009 12:41 PM

he?nice???????am i dreaming?????seem that i've already kn0wn m0st 0f the members k0z 0f my writing but i cant d0 anything....i'm addict t0 this....truely im d0ing my best!

Tam Li Hua 04-20-2009 12:46 PM

Princess: My apologies, but I just can't keep this up; your typing and your nonsense is literally giving me a headache. -_-;;

You typed like a normal person for your break-up post, so I'm going to assume that you -aren't- addicted, and are doing it for other reasons.

PrInCeSs 0f G0tH 04-20-2009 12:56 PM

n0 truely i swear 0n my g0th that i'm addict to write like this as for the break up part i'm trying my best t0 write n0rmally....
grrrr this is the 0nly f0rum wh0 is kinda like this!!!!!

Tam Li Hua 04-20-2009 01:02 PM

Princess: Actually, no it's not; most forums with more literate folks prefer to do without the chatspeak. In fact, I think it's even in the rules somewhere that chatspeak isn't allowed on Gnet.

PrInCeSs 0f G0tH 04-20-2009 01:12 PM

*Reads the Weather section of the morning paper* "Slightly foggy with a seventy-percent chance of troll."

It speaks the truth.

xxTalaTerror 04-23-2009 07:10 AM

Okay, let me get this straight.
It started off with a vampire suspision, then to bashing Twilight fans (Which I agree with a lot. I really hate it.), and now to someone that types like she's on major drugs?
Heh, this is some funny shit. :) <3

Hey umm... Haven't people been banned for lesser things?


Anyway, Princess, you're getting very annoying and I hate the ignore function so please, type properly or don't spam this place with crap?
leetspeak is VERY annoying.

Whycome you gotta spell it "vampyres" in that crappy Gother-Than-Thou manner, as if calling 'em "vampires" makes you part of the preteen retard mass?

More like impressionable teenagers who are too pathetic at living their lives that they've blurred the lines of reality and fiction. *rants*
The government should order everyone to burn the books! *maniacal laugh*

Whoah, I'm watching that right now. "You cannot ground that which is ungroundable."

I never liked Vampires ever since Twilight was discovered, somehow I knew this would happen, just like the Harry Potter fans who thought they could do magic.

Let's hope they don't ruin Zombies for me...

I believe these people are after the polished versions of monsters so they can displace their insecurities in the fantasy, associate themselves with the romanticized creatures and, eventually, soak in their make-believe. So, unless some genius starts making good-looking zombies, I think you're safe.

My opinion of vampires hasn't changed, but that is because whatever the fuck the creatures in Twilight are, they aren't vampires. Vampires don't sparkle in the sunlight, and have no issue with sex. Real vampires see humans as playthings or food. Think Lestat. Think Zillah. There are occasional exceptions (Louis, Christian, etc.) but other vampires tend to think of them as emo pussies who are barely better than humans. I like vampire horror. Vampires as monsters. Not cliche "vampire" romances where the big bad vampire has to come along and save the poor defenseless girl or woman, and omg they're in love.

I'd imagine real vampires would no longer be capable of love. They'd be jaded by years of failed relationships, sexual boredom, and outliving their human lovers. They might retain the ability to pity humans, but they wouldn't be likely to love. Even if they were capable, I doubt they'd want to love, because getting attached would only lead to heartbreak.

That's my rant for now. Vampires still take a back seat to my werewolf obsession though. Fortunately, it seems werewolves still haven't caught on as much as vampires have, in spite of the fact that they're apparently in the Twilight novels as well.

I spelt it with a Y because I wasn't referring to the kind of vampires who bop around with scarecrow fang caps and write fanfic in which they have raunchy sex with Edward Cullen. I was talking about the kind of people who are a part of that subculture, or fetish, or oddity (whatever you mayinterpret it as) which is vampyrism.
Anyway, it's just how it's spelt. Traditionally. Well, vampyr I believe is the proper spelling but let's not get all historic.

Once upon a time, I wandered onto your profile. And I was left wondering....that couldn't be her? Too fitting.

Anyway, a few posts back you said "I swEar on mY GoTh".

And, my friend, the point everyone here is trying to make, has been made.

How would they ruin zombies for you? The rabid fans will think they are zombies/want to be zombies and you all know how to deal with zombies...

"'Vampyre' or 'Vampyric' = douchebag or douchebagic."

zebra 05-13-2009 09:14 PM

You know, I never really understood people's love of vampires, pre-Twilight or not. Like, what's so great about them?
