Thank you reality.

You finally did it. You crushed vampires for me. They are utterly, totally, and absolutely played out.

Thanks.

(Imagine me shaking my fist at the sky, "Is there nothing sacred!")

What did this?

[jakerain]

Nothing specific, however, I did just signed up on goodreads.com, and someone had established a "Best Teen Vampire Fiction" list. Oh, here... I found it: http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/616.Best_Teen_Vampire_Fiction

No matter how great Let the Right One In was... it just doesn't undo all the crap that is coming out.

I had a conversation over the weekend, while playing a game of "Fury of Dracula", and I don't remember the exact subject. But I was reminded and summarized a portion of the Bram Stoker novel, to which the other person responded, "Oh, which version of the story is -that- in." My response was, "You know, the original. Bram Stoker?"

And... while I'm at it.. I'm trying to think of exactly which novel it was I read in which the first vampire was Jesus. Or some crap like that.

LOL

I am dying to know the answer to spitphyre's question!

Speaking of which, any ideas what could crush WOW for you or any other (ridiculously obsessed) player? Just curious. ;-)

Blizard (makers of WoW) is really doing a good job killing fan loyalty. It's not horribly an interesting game in itself. However, it's the only one my parents seem capable of playing, (barely at that). It is a little ridiculous, I know.

If WoW is so uninteresting, why is my husband SO DAMN INTERESTED IN IT????

Just curious. =P

Cause it's a game he gets to play with me, his bro, and his dad.

Get him to explain why when you resurrect an undead, they come back as undead... not alive. What I mean by uninteresting is that it's simplistic and arbitrary.
