Just a litte something I've been thinking about (while dealing with bullshit of my vampire-loving friend).
What's with this 'vampires are sooo cool! Have you seen Twilight movie?! I LOVE VAMPIRE KNIGHT!' ?! Really, I think vampires are so overrated! Yeah, I understand some girls find them sexy and so on and so on... I will obviously like a vampire who is good-looking man (well, if he matches my taste which is... ehm... extraordinary) but it's because he's good-looking man or he's doing cool things, not because he's a vampire... I wonder what about vampires makes them sooo sexy? -_- Their pale skin? I don't thing so, I'm pale as well and no one is crazy about me (or at least I don't know about it). Their fangs? Hm, Cat from Red Dwarf has them too and teenage girls are not getting wet when they see him. Their immortality or really long life-span? I wonder if it's positive thing... Surely drinking blood and getting some victims get annoying after... let's say thousand years. Their ability to turn into a bat? I BET they have fleas... plus bats are not that cute. The idea a vampire is going to bite you and turn you into a vampire too so you could be with him for all eternity? Nah, I don't thing so. It must hurt like a hell when someone bites your neck, plus there's no guarantee he'll be able to stop drinking your blood and therefore sparing your life...
And aren't vampires classified as undead? That makes them basically the same as zombies, but somehow less rotten. That makes people who like vampires necrophilliac, doesn't it? (And no, liking Fujiwara Motoo doesn't make ME necrophilliac. He's still alive xp)
I think the explanation is simple. It's not their vampirism that makes them so popular. It's the fact that they are stereotypically portrayed as handsome, mysterious and/or cool guys, so fangirls don't like vampires, they like handsome, mysterious and/or cool guys, who are also vampires. It's their occupation like... let's say Luffy's occupation is being a pirate.
Clearly those fangirls wouldn't like vampires at all, if they looked like the vampire in the old Nosferatu movie. -->

Now to my very retarded dream I had this morning. It was about me, Fuji-kun and Elizabeth from Pirates of Caribbean. I don't know what the hell she was doing here - I don't like her at all - but oh well... Anyway, we were in some random city on the top of skyscrapers and we were apparently doing some parkour (yeah, the three of us doing parkour...) to get away from evil Raito from Death Note who wanted to kill us. Elizabeth was also trying to find her beloved Will, who was hidden somewhere by Davy Jones. We managed to get into some big hall with sarcophagus and when we opened it, there was William inside! He was ok, just a little drunk, but he warned us that Davy Jones will be back soon. Before we could escape the hall, Davy Jones appeared and when I and Fuji-kun took a closer look, we noticed it's actually Chama in cosplay... -_- He was saying some random things, and while Elisabeth and William ran away, me and Fuji-kun were trapped by evil Chama Jones. At the same moment Raito appeared and it turned out he was Chama's 'brother in evil', so me and Fuji-kun were pretty much f**ked up. I remember getting really scared in my dream... O.o Scared of Chama xD (Rape maybe?!) Sadly, I don't know how it continued because I woke up... TT I hope I'll have similar dream very soon xD
