Yes, I watch The vampire Diaries, and I'm almost 30!


So WHAT!?! I love the show, Damon Salvatore, played by Ian Somerhalder, is adorable, and I do love looking at pretty things. So, I have to endure being made fun off by my delightful roommate, and my very own SO, who says no female over the age of 12 should watch this show, and that any man that watches it, does so at he risks of his testicles shrinking. Funny, but unfair...
This is just wrong!

I have been watching this show, and every other one about vampires, witches, and other supernatural things for years. It happens to be my favorite genre, and while the irritating sparkle vampires in that very famous movie bother me, there are many things about the series that are intriguing. Such as the special talents that several vampires have, and the bond that develops when a werewolf imprints on someone. I am however a purist in my belief of vampires and the sun, and do believe they should burst into flames like they damn well should not go all glittery like a disco ball. It's RIDICULOUS! So, because I watch pretty much anything involving vampires, I just try to ignore this obvious and blatant disregard to the 'rules' surrounding vampire lore for what seems like thousands of years. They should stick to the things we know about vampires... they burn in the sun, and they drink blood, or they die, I'm okay with them being able to walk on consecrated grounds, not being bothered by crosses or silver, and some other lesser wierd rules, like not being able to cross running water, but I refuse to budge on the sunlight issue.
