Sure. This "party" is "for fans." Because nothing says "party" like waiting in line in the middle of the night so you can spend $30 on a shitty movie you've already seen, all the while filled with false hope that Robert Pattinson is just wandering around White Center looking for some place to brush his hair before he takes you away from all this.

"The stores listed below will raise the stakes with our Give a Pint, Get a Pint program. The first 50 people at the party to donate blood to local blood banks may be eligible for a free pint of ice cream."

They're really loving the vampire digs aren't they?

@6, hope it's not Häagen-Dazs; their "pints" are shrinking to 14 oz. Although I suppose if the blood bank throttled back their vampiry to 14 oz. too, there would be at least a semblance of fairness.

And The Stranger will help fill the pockets of the Mormans even further.
Why do you post this shit!
Fuck Stephenie Meyer! She's a fucking anti-gay bitch!

@8 Yeah whatever
Just because she gives 10% of the income from her movies to the Morman Church does not make her anti-gay. And have you ever heard of freedom of speech?

Haven't you heard?
Mormans are the new black.
Hence people supporting Twilight to the tune of one billion dollars.

the Brit Vampires love black Liquorice, known fact. Really, if you want to ensnare them just make a chastity ring of the stuff, and they'll love you long time and respect your virginity and feed you bloody crumpets.

My 14 y.o. daughter is one of those obsessed Twilight fans. She wanted to stop at Borders tonight to see what was going on. She decided to leave after 10 minutes.

seems like you are out of touch as there are literally hundreds of people outside the stores right now.

Saturday at SPL, there will be a teen debate where they'll fight about which is better: Twilight or Harry Potter. Might be worth checking out.
