English Nerd rage

Also, on Tuesday in class our lecturer showed us twilight-esqe book covers that have been released for old classic romances such as Emma, Pride and Prejudice and Wuthering Heights (to name a few).



SERIOUSLY WTF IS THIS CRAP "BELLA AND EDWARD'S FAVOURITE BOOK" WTF ARE YOU SERIOUS. OMG SO MAD. SO, SO MAD.
How could they, even for a single second, compare the two??? And wtf is with that stupid "love never dies" crap.
They're cheapening Wuthering Heights.
>_<
I can't begin to express my love for Wuthering Heights.
AND THE STUPID PUBLISHING COMPANIES PULL THIS CRAP.
omg i hate Stephanie Meyer for even mentioning Wuthering Heights in her stupid pathetic excuse for a romance novel. How could that simpering idiot of a girl that is Bella and that gay sparkly vampire that is Edward EVER match up to Cathy and Heathcliff? Oh God, Heathcliff.
DON'T YOU DARE compare the love between Heathcliff and Cathy to the love between Edward and Bella.
I bet Emily Bronte is stirring in her grave.

The same goes for duh duh duh Pride and Prejudice




"the love that started it all" pfffft wtf. WHO COMES UP WITH THESE?!
And seriously. Omg again, NO COMPARISON!
Elizabeth ACTAULLY HAS A PERSONALITY!  And Mr Darcy! Oh Mr Darcy. Oh god I have to go read his letter to Elizabeth now >_<"

LOL i'm such a nerd =.=

there are more but I've had enough twilight-esque pictures on my blog.

And the worst part is, our lecturer told us that she had been asked to speak to some high school kids about these classics and the high school teacher was like "yeah, the kids have been disappointed that these books were nothing like twilight"
sigh.
I want to hit my head against the wall repeatedly and then curl up and cry.

The only comfort is that people in my class were as angry and disgusted as I was. There was a collective groan when we were shown these covers, followed by exclamations of "oh god!"  and "ughh" and "are you serious" and other exclamations of disgust.
So that was nice.
