After taking the world by storm (or sparkle, whichever you prefer), the Twilight franchise has reached its close – the final instalment of the film series, Breaking Dawn Part 2, releases in India today. For Twihards, that means it’s the last chance to watch a never-before-seen Twilight flick (complete with red contact lenses if you’re Amruta Khatavkar). But for people like me who are completely anti-Twilight, it’s our last chance to troll the fans of the series – all in the name of good fun, of course. 😉 So if you can’t resist bugging a Twihard fan a little, then read on for some ideas!

1. Replace the book jackets.

Visit your nearest bookstore, pick up a few Harry Potter books, take off the jackets, and replace them with Twilight/New Moon/Eclipse/Breaking Dawn ones. The result? Nipping a potential Twihard in the bud: anyone who picks up one of those books with a Twilight cover will think they’ve purchased a book on vampires – but will actually get home and find that they’ve got to read about an amazing boy wizard instead.

2. Just hide them!

If the above seems like too much work (or we’re dealing with paperback books instead), just do what my BFF did instead: hide the Twilight books behind Harry Potter ones (or whatever book is your favourite). If they just have to read the book, then they may as well search for it.

3. Leave a copy in the bathroom.

Take your Twihard friend’s copy of any Twilight book, leave a lovely little note (as pictured above) on it, and then place it in your friend’s bathroom. If you’re really mean then feel free to nick the roll of toilet paper also, but I’m not advocating that…

4. Swap pictures.

Tell your Twihard friend that you just found the hottest shirtless picture of Taylor Lautner/Robert Pattinson ever, and because you’re such a nice friend and will never hog all the eyecandy, you simply must share it. Then link your friend to this picture instead:

I mean, if you squint really hard, you can see the resemblance… *cough*

5. Treat them to the movie!

Let your friend know that – since you’re such an awesome friend and all – you’ve booked Breaking Dawn Part Two tickets for the both of you as a special treat. Let your friend show up at the cinema all happy and excited, and take them into the screen that’s showing…

The downside of this option is that you’ll end up having to sit through the film yourself. Or maybe your Twihard friend will kill you before it’s over – which, after a few minutes of SOS, you’ll realize is actually a good thing.
