This whole “Twilight” business is fucking out of control. The most recent additiion to the insanity behind the book series-turned-film is found in a recent piece in the [L.A. Times](http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/columnone/la-na-forks15-2008nov15,0,1116606.story) wherein Forks, Washington (the city where the books take place) is now being inundated with fans wanting to have their pictures taken in front of Forks High School. Some fans drove **four hours** just to do that. Apparently many businesses have taken to selling Bella-themed items, like the Bellaburger (Note: not an actual item in the books) and Bellaberry pie (also not in the books). But there is hope. Mark Brandmire, assistant principal of Forks High School wonders, “Our kids don’t see the novelty. What part of ‘fiction’ don’t you get?” Yeah, no shit.
