	Sorry,but I felt compelled to point out an error in the quiz."Twilight" was inadvertantly listed in the literature category.

	I find it telling that the only two people who were compelled to comment were inspired by the obvious error of listing Twilight as literature.

	I, too, was thrown off by "Twilight" being categorized as literature!

	@EmYanks2001: I think the general sentiment is that a "book" does not exactly classify as "literature." I would have trouble putting Othello and Twilight in the same category.

	@weaselking: I think the problem is twofold: (1) The 'Twilight' books and movies are pretty much equally popular, meaning it could/should be listed as 'Entertainment' rather than 'Literature', and (2) Webster's defines literature as: "writings in prose or verse; especially : writings having excellence of form or expression and expressing ideas of permanent or universal interest", and I don't think that applies to 'Twilight'.

	One might raise the same objection to Cujo.

	These comments are becoming COPSHY. Don't go all JOUC on each other because it chills me to the BESON. You all need to lay off the EDGYHORN and take a nice vacation to CEMOXI. Then maybe we can all be DINSERF.

	I don't think the debate is whether or not Twilight is literature (written on paper in the form of a book) but whether it is worthy enough to be put in the same category as other great works of literature. I'm not taking a hard here because I could care less either way.

	I tried Corky for Rocky. Oops.

	vamsi:	Oct 22nd, 2010 at 14:36 GMT	1 point
	hahaha, i came down here exactly to make a "twiglight is not literature" comment, but apparently several of my fellow sporclers think like me!

	Too bad there isn't a movie called "Shy Cop" or a TV show called "Finders".

	metagloria:	Oct 22nd, 2010 at 14:48 GMT	9 points
	throws generic "twilight is not literature" comment on the pile and walks away

	Fluffy, me too. Couldn't get Corky out of my head to come up with Rocky. Got Othello, Iodine and Amadeus but missed Rocky. Hang my head.

	liberty20:	Oct 22nd, 2010 at 19:23 GMT	3 points
	What? There wasn't a TV show called "Finders"? I sat there and typed it three times in disbelief. Then I slapped myself on the forehead.

	wotan:	Oct 22nd, 2010 at 20:03 GMT	11 points
	And as I completed the quiz I thought I might be unpopular for thinking it was odd that twilight was listed as literature and not kindling

	barnztormre:	Oct 23rd, 2010 at 15:46 GMT	5 points
	I knew it was missing a letter, but my first instinct for BONES was "Benson".

	Norah:	Oct 23rd, 2010 at 23:59 GMT	3 points
	For some reason, all I could think of with "DINSERF" was "Finders." lol. If only that was a real TV show... Anyway, fun quiz! :)

	And, even though Corky is less popular than Rocky(much much much less popular... I've never seen Corky), I think it should be accepted or at the very least be a bonus answer, since it is the name of another movie.

	ezman280:	Oct 24th, 2010 at 01:11 GMT	2 points
	@everybody. I, too, immediately realized that twilight should not be here, as it is not literature. Great minds must think alike.

	@guesswho9121 - the problem is, I don't think most people recognize J-14 magazine as a valuable resource for literary criticism.
