Let's just do the funny today, since I'm still fairly behind on All The Things. Here is some of my favorite Vampire nonsense:
And here is one of my favorite shirts from Shirt Woot!
And for the grand finale:
No, I do not hate Twilight - I'm a librarian. It got people to read who didn't read before. HOWEVER, I was raised on Bram Stoker, Anne Rice, and honest to goodness horror novels. Seeing vampires as boyfriend material makes me giggle.
Except for Eric Northman. He does something else...
I will say I did get a BIG kick out of the Vampire nonsense pics in the post. If anyone is a well read vampires you would get a good kick out this post.
ReplyDeleteI read the first 2 books of twilight and I just could not continue the series....well for now at least.
I love vampire nonsense. I do not particularly care for sparkly vampires.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah... Eric Northman...right there with you.
This was a great post. I'm more into Anne Rice than Stephanie Meyer's vision of vampires. I read the first book to see what all the hullabaloo was about and I couldn't go on. Though, guiltily, I have seen all the movies. I'm so ashamed!
ReplyDeleteGod, I SO agree. Eric Northman...YUM. He and Angel from Buffy the Vampire Slayer are the only two date-able vamps. And real vamps DON'T sparkle.
ReplyDeleteSnap we both have Vampires today! But really, was there an alternative!
ReplyDeleteVampires shouldn't sparkle. Srsly.
Love this one! I tend to agree---vampires should NOT sparkle. That's just wrong. bobbi c.
ReplyDeleteNice bit of fang in throat. However, for vampires in general, you might want to include the spoof that combined "Twilight" with "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter". Photoshopped image of one of the Twilight "sparklers" being chased by Abraham Lincoln, who is wielding a long-handled axe.
