Meh, it's still be turning into a lunatic.. just towards "bad guys" instead of "good guys" Though really, the difference is all a matter of opinion and beliefs on what exactly is bad or good. o.0 And I didn't exagerate it, that's my plan on how I'm dieing, lol..
And Ihave no idea.. uhm.. A glittering vampire is as odd as a random killing spree? There! I connected em! ^.^

That’s what I meant when I said “…will cause the person to go crazy…” so those kind of people have already lost their sense of right and wrong which is somehow similar to being emotionless but in different words.
Anyways; it’s an exaggeration to me since I consider it up to the women themselves in first place, if each of them did something as a reaction to being hurt in every possible way; the possibility of them being hurt will decrease. I do realize there are many things to consider in that sort of situation, but taking an action against it is for the best…
Anyways, you are free to die that way; it’s a matter of opinion and beliefs after all, like you said.

Meh, to go crazy is letting one specific emotion control all of your thoughts and actions.. To be emotionless is to not feel anything at all.. =P
And iunno... I just think if you're gonna die, ya might as well try to be useful to somebody or something, lol. Dieing in your sleep is all peaceful and everything, but it doesnt' do anybody good.. except scare the person half-to-death when they find your body. >.> At least my way, I can put in my "good byes" to people, and I can decide when to die, lol.

There are many other better ways to be useful besides dying while killing some terrible men whom you shouldn’t be killing in the first place. Killing few of them, even if they truly deserve to die, won’t make the situation any better. Will it end all these things in the world? No. Will the rest whom you won’t be killing stop doing what they do? No. There are other ways to end that sort of thing, which, like I said before, is up to the women themselves in the first place. Committing a crime to solve other crimes isn’t a solution, but actually stepping up and doing or saying something could be a part of the solution.
I don’t have to die in a heroic way in order to be useful. I could be useful in most of the days of my life instead. You can’t decide when to die; you can go to a war and not die, you can be in the middle of the Atlantic in a horrible storm and not die… yet, you can walk down the street and be hit by a car which will cause your death. Anyways; dying in your bed isn’t horrible, if I would die that way and make people around me truly feel there is a gap in the world then I for sure made something useful.

People die and people around them do get sad, but they do get over it and get on with their lives...
Not everybody has to die heroically, but I want to. =p And no, it may not do much good at all, but I'll feel better, and so will the girls that they hurt, so I'll still feel like I did something, even if it's only revenge.
and you can decide when you want to die.. I understand your examples but I don't think mass-killing manwhores is going to slip under the cop's radar. o.0 They'll notice, come after me, and I'm PRETTY sure they'll find me, lol. I don't think I'm THAT good... But you can just as easily aim the gun at your head and pull the trigger.. THAT is chosing when to die. =p

Yes, and that’s for the best of course. Besides, people get off their sadness and learn to deal with the situation but they don’t stop missing the person.
I wasn’t speaking about suicide, because not everyone is able to kill themselves and not everyone is able to kill themselves. Death in general is something you can’t control, for example, on your heroic mission; you could survive and not die; escape the police or something, that what I was talking about.

Ah.. Slim chance. =p You can't control Death, but you can step in it's way. lol. I would see my 'heroic mission' as both Heroic and Suicidal... Then again there was some guy that ran away from the cops and stayed in the same neighborhood (which was dumb of course) and still managed to get free for a couple months. o.0 No idea how much he cost the state. >.< I was kinda routing for him though.. It was like Cat and Mouse lol

There's usually a lot of debate that surrounds Twilight. Some love it. Some hate it. Usually the people that love it are women. "omg lol edward is so perfect n bueatfl in evry waii." Of course he is, idiot. That's how he was written. Doesn't change the fact that he's fictional. Most of my friends are guys and we tend to share opinions, and I'll say this:
Twilight is one of the most unoriginal pieces of fiction I've ever read. I just read another Mary-Sue infested book called Sundays at Tiffany's. They're written for love-sick women, really. I think they're alright for a day read, but not worth an obsession. I found Twilight to be extremely boring, to be completely honest. The movie sucked, too, and made the characters seem even more 2D, which is sad. Oh well.

Well it is a chick-* book. >.> So it is to be expected that girls, gay guys, and romantics (Yay for us Romantics) Would enjoy it.. though true, I can't obsess over it.
But I HATE when people say that.. "he's fictional" Just like when you watch an action movie, see someone shoot a few people while doing a back flip and they'll scream "FAKE!".. I got a news flash.. TV is fake.. If you cannot physically touch it, it can be labeled as fake.. You can touch the TV, but you cannot touch anything or anyone in it, so they are fake.. You can touch a book, but you cannot touch any characters in them, so they are fake...
Now the only exception is non-fiction/documentaries/learning books/shows/movies... But 99% of that is past events, so the documentary is basically consisted of re-enactments, which are FAKE..
And I'm not sure about the book being unoriginal.. That sparkling Vampire concept, though I hate it, definately sets it apart from other books. However of course a Vampire book is going to be similar to every other Vampire book because they all revolve around one concept, "Vampires"
As for the 2D, I'm guessing you mean figuratively, such as they have one emotion/look and it stays that way through the entire film.. which I kinda agree on, but in a physical sense that is definately not true.. At a few scenes in the movie, the director definately had way too much fun spinning the camera around people. >.<

Okay... yeah? Of course everyone says it's fake. That's not my point at all. I'm talking about how unoriginal it is. I think it's unoriginal, not for the vampire aspect (which is also still very unoriginal; Bela Lugosi's as original as it's going to get), but for the fact it's written like every other teen love novel in existence. The sparkling setting apart from other books? Haha. That just makes it really stupid, and that's the only truly original aspect? The villain is in there just to be a villain. It's Mary-Sue infected. I could tell it was written by a novice. I applaud Stephenie Meyer for her hard work and I'm glad she could be famous, but goodness. I really wish she'd written something better.

Maybe she'll improve.. Regardless if the sparkling is stupid (which I agree) it IS original. And true the rest might be "generic' is the term you're looking for, there can only be so many original idea's until you have to be extremely farfetched just to come close to something original.
