    My brother bought an original edition signed by Stoker from some yuppie dumbass's garage sale for $3.

    "Didn't like the book, was my grandfather's."

    We're not so different, you and I.

    It’s sad at how many people think that the writing in this and things like Shakespeare’s work is old English. If those pieces were in old English, not a single one of these idiots would be able to read them.

    þæt hine on ylde eft gewunigen
    wilgesiþas, þonne wig cume,
    leode gelæsten; lofdædum sceal
    in mægþa gehwære man geþeon.
    Him ða Scyld gewat to gescæphwile
    felahror feran on Frean wære;
    hi hyne þa ætbæron to brimes faroðe,
    swæse gesiþas, swa he selfa bæd,
    þendenwordum weold wine Scyldinga---
    leof landfruma lange ahte.

    I can’t read it either, but at least I know the difference between the start of the English language and a certain style of writing.

    The movie was also equally a classic, also on a completely different level than any other modern vampire pictures.

    Fucking love Gary Oldman as Dracula.



    This is how a real vampire is born.

    Nonsense. Not all classics are great reads. Many of them are actually rather tedious and painful to read through. The stories might be generally great, but the writing in some... urgh

    The reason I find the pic nonsense though is that they're saying a decent book is awful and that TWILIGHT of all things is way better. Fucking horrible people.
