Okay, so, there's something about reading not-the-cliffs-notes version of Bram Stoker's "Dracula" that really helps you appreciate the fact that these people decided to live between an insane asylum and Dracula's creepy house. COME ON, PEOPLE. COULD YOU HAVE PICKED A WORSE LOCATION ( Read more... )

dracula isn't my bff yet, an expert weighs in, already fascinated with the biggest bad

It's mostly bullshit, but actually, the stupidity of some people was spot on.

People don't want to think about danger, death, or taxes if they don't have to.

[Voice] steadfastest September 13 2010, 19:59:10 UTC

Uh---yeah, yeah. I'm not sure it was stupidity or what. I remember when...uh, who are you again?

[Voice] derek_bliss September 14 2010, 00:20:01 UTC

In the case of the villagers in the book? It's the only home they knew. And moving probably wasn't an option.

Name's Derek Bliss. You?

Xander, Xander Harris.

Nice to meetcha.

So, what I was going to say was that I remember when I first learned Buffy was the Slayer, and that there were vampires running around. There was this moment where it just hit me--everything made sense. How creepy my town was and stuff.

[ Poor, Xander. He'll never get out of this one. ]

Good to hear you finally picked up a book.

[voice] steadfastest September 13 2010, 19:59:34 UTC

[Oh, no.]

Hey, I pick them up!

[voice] slayersidekick September 14 2010, 18:36:17 UTC

Only right before something really bad or an apocalypse. [ She loves you, Xander. Really. ]

[voice] steadfastest September 15 2010, 20:43:00 UTC

Can you think of a BETTER time? Because I think the fact that a guy like me helps save lives with them is pretty darn impressive.

Oh. I read that once. It's, um. Very influential, or so I've heard. I didn't really enjoy it all that much.

[Voice] steadfastest September 13 2010, 19:59:58 UTC

Oh yeah? Why didn't you like it?

Re: [Voice] couldhavedanced September 13 2010, 21:38:46 UTC

Oh. Um. It just wasn't my kind of book, I guess.

[Voice] steadfastest September 13 2010, 21:41:23 UTC

That kind of describes every book, to me. Good thing I finally graduated.

[ Think-think. ]

Was it across the street from a graveyard?

steadfastest September 13 2010, 20:00:56 UTC

Was what across the street from a graveyard? 'Cuz when you really think about it, everywhere's a graveyard, kinda.

sniperkingftw September 13 2010, 21:44:37 UTC

If you're gonna think like that, nowhere's safe at all! [ D8 ] Especially places between asylums and big creepy houses.

steadfastest September 13 2010, 21:48:15 UTC

Graveyards are only dangerous when there's vampires hatching out of them. Otherwise they're just big fields full of bones and ashes.

...

Okay, they're always creepy, I'll give you that.

It's a really long book about a vampire. You can borrow it when I'm done, if you want.

[Voice] steadfastest September 13 2010, 21:44:04 UTC

It's sort of a classic, I guess. It's not too bad.

....

You don't know what vampires are?
