I also find its amusing that they're "Bizzard" employees, rather than Blizzard. XD

I just _____ in the _____.

You all know I hate Twilight so, for my amusement, I decided to do some number crunching because, well, Bella's such an airhead that she couldn't do it herself.

In the second Twilight book, New Moon, there is a point where Edward leaves Bella. Bella becomes so devestated that she literally becomes a brain-dead zombie, this is represented by four blank pages.

I admit, it did manage to make me go "whoa" at the time (though nothing else managed to give me that feeling in the series) but the effect was quickly lost and it wasn't long before I realized how retarded it was. It's a waste of good paper.

So, I decided to figure out how much of a waste it really is.

There are 4 blank pages in New Moon. I did some research and figured out that over 24 million copies of New Moon have sold (so this doesn't even count the gobs of them that haven't). Take the 4 blank pages and miltiply by the the number of copies.

4x25,000,000=100,000,000

You now have 100 million blank pages.

But I'm not finished yet. Let's put those pages to good use.

The US standard edition versions of the Harry Potter series (books 1-7) equal a total of 4,175 pages. Let's find out how many copes of the entire Harry Potter series we can make using the blank pages of New Moon. Take 100 million and divide by 4,175.

100,000,000/4,175=23,952

We now have 23,952 copies of the entire Harry Potter series, made from all the blank pages of New Moon.

Let me know if any of my numbers are off!

That's uncanny. Epic Photoshop is epic.

So, I come here to inform you that Twilight is actually an okay movie... For a comedy film. Thank you, RiffTrax, for making such a horrible thing almost bearable.

You have to admit, though, that the form of Bomberman portrayed there would be the best game ever. Period.

I mean, Big Daddy Bomberman! Epicness!

Better than that atrocity they called a Bomberman reboot that was released on the Xbox.
