“ 

Seriously, “articles” like this one infuriate me. You clearly don’t know your stuff, because the werewolves in Twilight are not exactly the same as your average wolf. First and foremost, they are shape-shifters, not werewolves that transform during the full moon. Secondly, they are able to transform incredibly swiftly.

I know that it’s fashionable to bash Twilight if all of your buddies do it, but at least have your research, moron.

This one wasn’t mine, but my next Movieline piece is definitely going to include some serious werewolf-baiting.

For when you figure out that the Edward Cullen in your life who told you, “It’s OK, baby, vampires can’t get you pregnant. You ever see a baby vampire?” might not have been telling the truth. Regretsy – The Curse

I suppose the cadaver dressed as Lady Gaga I was going to prop up on the porch this year is now in bad taste. (Totally doing it anyway.)

“Oh, hai, A-Rod! What are you doing down there? Just hanging out? OK, that’s cool. See you Friday! Oh, hey, before I forget, you’re not masturbating into my cleats again while I give an interview, are ya? No? Yeah, I knew it. Just checking.” (God, I love the playoffs.)

Downtown

In Downtown Los Angeles, there is a restaurant/bar that sells French Dip sandwiches, called Cole’s. Through a door at the back of Cole’s is a small bar, called The Varnish, that serves artisanal cocktails. Through a smaller door at the back of The Varnish is a closet-sized room, called Transistor, in which a bartender sits upon a piano stool and pours a single shot of 20-year-old Scotch for each patron. Through a doggie-door at the back of Transistor is a smaller closet with a four-foot ceiling, called Phosphor, where a dwarf named Hibernius will take a swig from a bottle of absinthe, demand that you tickle his exposed scrotum with a peacock feather, messily spray the absinthe into your mouth once you comply with this off-putting request, then cackle in a disturbing fashion as he devours the feather.

There is no door at the back of this room.
