A con wherein the con artist gets a cashier to give the twiner more money than s/he gave the cashier plus their shopping for free. Here is an example of how the con might go:
1. Twiner buys a 60p packet of chewing gum with a £20 note.
2. After receiving £19.40 change, twiner 'remembers' he has a £1 coin in his pocket.
3. Twiner gives cashier 5 X £1 coins and asks for a £5 note in return.
4. Twiner distracts cashier with small talk and slips £5 into his pocket.
5. After the cashier has been engaged in enough small talk to make them forget about step #3, twiner gives the cashier a £5 and a £10 note and says, "Actually, you might as well just give me the £20 back."
6. If the twiner is good and the cashier forgetful, the cashier will give the twiner a £20.
7. Twiner now has £25 and a pack of gum from £20.

Get the Twining mug.Seriously, I know there are that many Twitards/Twihards that are completely obsessed with the book/movie, but come off it!!
It is a book series/movie about a plain girl falling in love with a 'beautiful' vampire, having a family (which should be impossible) and living happily ever after in the end.
I wasn't so much into the movie, and while the books may be a little empty as to plot or description (other than that of the perfection called Edward Cullen)I actually did enjoy reading them. Yeah, there is A LOT of cliche's, and rips from other books/movies, but there is still a heap of stuff that's different to the normal image of a 'vampire'.
It may be terribly cliched in the girl meets boy, girl falls in love with boy department, but it's interesting enough to occupy the mind of someone terribly bored.
It's not just tweenfan orientated as people depict, plenty of adults enjoy it, I being one of them (and I must say I'm intellectually sound), and it's funny saying it's just fangirls obsessed because half the dim-witted tweens in my town are to busy out screwing, getting drunk, & failing school to sit down an read a book, let alone ENJOY something that promotes moral behaviour!!
But I feel fit to say I am not a Twitard, and any of the people who ARE into the whole "Oh Edward Cullen is dreamy, I wanna have his babies" type of crap, YOUR KIDDING YOURSELVES!! Fictional character people!! Paid actor people!! He may have good morals (actually, nothing FUN ever came out of abstinence did it) but that's about it!! In person, Robert Pattinson looks rather plain!! Without all those dreamy visual effects makind him look lifeless that is...
Anyway, if you like it, good on ya, if ya don't, good on ya too, it's up to you.
It's a good boredom buster, but don't bust ya guts bitching about it if ya don't like it!! It makes you look like YOU'VE got nothing better to do.

Me: "Pffft.... fuck off."

Get the Twining mug.Twilight is probably one of the easiest books to read. It is written in a language so simple with a plot so dull that a third grader from Mexico can comprehend it.
Basically a vampire foodfight, it is a novel that seems to be aimed at fifth or sixth graders.
This book was then made into a PG-13 movie that was as enjoyable as lacerating your own eyeballs with a sharpened piece of rusted tin.
