Humor me.

Okay. So Veganism is epic, in itself, but what would make it even more epic? A vegan vampire. One of the leading ladies in my book I am writing, is a vegan from the UK who developed a spirulina based shake that has cultured white blood cells and crushed vitamin b12.

Character bios (and slight sampling from quotes) can be found here.

Sure this is

Not to say that you shouldn't do it as well, but you do know they have "vegan vampires" in Twilight yes?

[leastconcern]

I hate Twilight! And they are vegetarian, and misappropriating the term since instead of eating humans, they eat animals.

it really pissed me off...

"Deer aren't walking carrots for crying out loud."

haha, that made me lol :)

[leastconcern]

Didn't you get the memo? Their antlers are made of carrotine.

While pretty much everything in those books was full of fail, it was mostly funny fail or snarkable fail, that part made me mad. Especially when it was first being described as (paraphrasing) "like humans living on tofu and soy milk, really unsatisfying!" Agh, WTF? FAIL. (Not that living on JUST tofu and soy milk wouldn't be unsatisfying, but I interpreted that as meaning eating tofu instead of meat and soy milk instead of dairy but otherwise eating the same.)

That made me sooooo mad. Also Twilight is awful.

My vampires will have less STARING and less SPARKLING.

[underthethrow]

Will they have fangs?

And less stupid arbitrary powers?

They will have fangs and less stupid arbitrary powers.

And much more hilarious dialogue.

I think "This is the skin of a killer" is pretty hilarious
but it's not supposed to be

have you seen the movie? I saw it for the lulz and was trying so hard not to crack up during the entire thing.

They were using the term rather tongue-in-cheek... I thought it was actually a fairly good metaphor for people who morally object to the normal eating practices of their species, and being able to survive on alternatives, do so.

[leastconcern]

I understand it was used as a metaphor, however the word vegetarian is already abused so much. Many people assume, by self-labeled pesce/pollotarians that all vegetarians eat chicken and fish. So, this implies that Edward, as a vegetarian, mostly eats animals but can dine on say a human or two every now and then.
