TwiCrack
I manage two front desk receptionists (one male and the other female) at my job and they've witnessed my journey of reading the Twilight Saga. I used to close the door to my office during lunch and tell them things like, "I have a lunch date with Edward Cullen, please don't disturb me," or "I'm about to be introduced to Jacob Black. I'll be out in a minute." They used to hear me laugh, cry, or even saw my shocked face as I read the books.
One day they both asked me, "What's the big deal about Twilight? Why are you so into it?" My response was, "Watch the movie and if you like it, you can barrow the books." Just like a drug dealer, I decided to give them a little taste of what it was all about. I let them barrow the dvd and once they've watched it, they were hooked. Just like junkies, they craved more and needed their daily dose of Twilight. I wasn't surprised. I sorta anticipated them to become addicts, more so the woman than the male however, the male seems more into it than the woman. I never thought twice about what I was doing to them. I was glad I was supplying them with TwiCrack!
Since then, we are non-stop talking about it. Does it ever get old to me? Hummph, Nope! I love it! But I am starting to notice that they are doing more Twilight related things than doing their work. I may come off as a hypocrite however, I make sure that I get my daily duties taken care of and when I do my daily Twilight Google searches I never get caught.
It brings me to this... Misery loves company. I'm not bothered with the fact that they are Googling what an adrenaline rush is, I just feel better that I have someone or two people in the office to share a mutual interest in something. I took these two innocent people in my office and sold their souls to the devil. They are almost as addicted as I am and I consider myself to be a hard core addict. I'm not going to quit selling TwiCrack. I won't stop until I can get everyone I know addicted to this drug! BWAHAHAHAHHA!!! (that's my evil laugh!)

You are so funny! "Just like a drug dealer, I decided to give them a little taste" that is so freakin awesome!
Its cool you have peeps in your office, no one I know or at my work is as addicted as I am...the worst is my little sister wont even budge, she has watched the movie 2 times with me and I showed her the New Moon trailer after she saw my new desktop bg with a Jake as a wolf and said, "oh. that looks cool" But she would only watch it one time. ONE time? I even thought about slipping the book in her bag when she went to Cali a few weeks ago, but alas, she is a traitor (LOL!)

I'm kinda glad that I found this website (Thank you, Alison Genet!) because there are TONS of peeps out there with the same problem like us. Hopefully your little sis will come around. It took me a long time to finally give in. Eventually, she'll start to live, breathe, and sleep thinking about Twilight and if she never gives in, that's fine too. Of course she's missing out though.
The two people at my job are both Team Edward. I have yet to meet any team Jake fans yet. I tons on this website but it would be nice to be able to actually talk to someone that's into Jake also. So it may seem like it's totally awsome that I have the two receptionists at my job to talk to but they are totally biased (I am too though).

That is sooooo hilarious. I got hooked the same way by my sister-in-law. And I tried to keep it a secret at work when i let it slip that I was reading the books one of my co-workers was like "OMJ why didn't you say anything we've could've been talking about the books with you". Turns out my supervisor and her assistant and a few people in my "Team" are all Twilight fanatics. Of course there's Team Edward and Team Jacob.
LOVE LOVE LOVE TWILIGHT .

Your so funny. I guess I can call myself a drugdealer to...I needed so bad someone to shear this with, so I show the movie to my best friend, and now she has some serious cravings!!!!
I am also (on the DL) trying to get other friends hooked. I am just waiting in the wing.
I am impressed that you let your friends borrow your books, I have done that once and never doing it again. It's like a part of me is missing. I need to get a hit at least once a day. LOL

That's so funny! I have tried soo many times to make my friends read twilight, but they won't give in. I think they are a little afraid that they are going to be so crazy as I am. I had this huge catfight with one of my best buds on IM the other day. She came with all sort of stupid arguments like the Cullens are pale white and UGLY. And the books are stupid etc. Well, she has not read the books nor seen the movie. That's very lame! "Don't judge a book by it's cover!"
But I won't give in. They are all going to read it soon, very soon...

I watched the film one sunday afternoon and i just got hooked i wanted to watch it over and over which i did 4 times in one week. Then bought every twilight thing i saw including all the books, Introduced it to my best friend and she is now officially hooked. I so get hwat you say baout do not disturb im about to meet jacob black etc. When i first read edward was leaving Bella i felt crushed haha and i as i tried to fall alseep i felt as if i had been dumoed too and couldnt face work as i just wanted to read on haha to get him back. I am soo obsessed with it though and so glad im not the only one i love talking about to other ppl because when i talk about it at work as much as i do people think im a little wierd:p x

@Martine:
One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone criticizes something that they haven't ever tried. It drives me nuts when people like to talk good or bad about something that they haven't experienced first hand and that doesn't just apply to Twilight, that applies to everything in life in general. I hope your friend didn't bring you down. Just shrug it off. That's what I do, especially when I get a bunch of crap from people for being Team Jacob. Everyone likes what they like. We are all entitled to our opinion but I will never criticize someone for showing interest in something that they like (just as long as it's appropriate, non-racial, or anything bad in general, of course). Even though Im Team Jacob and I am a little biased, I would never hate on Edward Cullen, I actually like Edward. He's hot too... He's just not my type.
