i have been into the vampire nostalgia/culture for quite a while now. it started with reading "interview with a vampire" by anne rice. i was hooked. i read several more of her vampire books, read vampire comics...each drawing me in further. even with the advent of her movies i still felt my quirky facination was at least somewhat in the rarity.
but things have changed.
the movie "twilight" has thrust vampire interest into the stratoshpere of popularity. whats worse, it's male star has every teenage girl in love with the very concept of bad-boy vampires. vampires are now right up there with hanna montana, and britney spears. ultimately, in essence, and to wit, vampires have just become too popular for me to continue enjoying.
once a thing becomes so popular that it is status quo, rather than a novelty, i want nothing more to do with it. now if i could only wipe off these damn tattoos.

I have not noticed any such popularity.
Are you a Rob Zombie fan, since you are into vampires?
I saw a kid with a t-shirt, and at the bottom of the back it said something like: Everybody Is A Vampire. What is up with that?
