Ok, so I finally understand the vampire thing

I really really tried not to get sucked in to the vampire obsession that kids these days have embraced. I generally don't trust kids these days. I also generally don't like fantasy/sci-fi stuff. For example, Avatar (what a pile of shit). But then a series of good friends, who I do trust and who have impeccable taste, were pushing the whole TrueBlood/Dollhouse thing. Dollhouse was first. Now TrueBlood.. 

We (N and I and Doug) were feeling a little bit hungover yesterday so N went and hired TrueBlood and we watched 5 episodes, drank Coke and ate waaaaay too many potato gems. It was total heaven. So now I'm hooked. Which is good because watching actual tv with ads sucks so we like to have a series to watch on dvd when we wanna chill. We think it's ok to be hooked on TrueBlood because it has the same quirky backwater town mixed up in weird creepy shit vibe that Twin Peaks had, and we love Twin Peaks. Have you watched Twin Peaks? You should. 

This doesn't mean I'll be rushing out to see all the other vampire movies. I love true blood in spite of the vampires, ok. But oh, no, actually I do love the vampires, but I really don't wanna go too mainstream. (that was a total TrueBlood reference). Ok, maybe I'm still a little hung-over. Bye.

This is what doug looks like when he's watching TrueBlood
