From Dr. Polidori's Lord Ruthven to Stephenie Meyer's Edward Cullen, the annals of vampire lore are filled with attractive, charming bloodsuckers. Which one would you most want to be bitten by?

GOD DAMN ANYONE BUT THAT DISGUSTING EDWARD THING OR ANOTHER MEYERPIRE. Vampires do not sparkle. If it sparkles, it is not a vampire. Kill it with fire. (I could write a 20-page rant about this.)

I have one vampire that I'd willingly give my blood to. Turn me into a vampire? Yes, if I can stay with him and terrorize the world and slay some Twitards. Insert here an evil laugh.
The one and only, Dracula. Bela Lugosi and Gary Oldman are both quite, umm, adorable as Dracula. See for yourself:

...I mean, come on, how can a teenage vampire whose only job in this world is to be SPARKLAAAYYYHHH ever be compared to something like that? That's not the very best picture of Bela as Dracula, but there aren't many good pictures. See the movie. Dracula, from the year 1931, and you'll know what vampires are all about.
Bela's death glare and Gary being almost overly dramatic... Oh, God. I also hate how Twitards say Edward is so ~romantic~ when he doesn't want to turn Bella into a vampire, but Gary's Dracula's pinky finger is more romantic than Edward.
I have crossed oceans of time to find you.
I... love you too much to condemn you.

Compared to our beloved overly bipolar "UUHHH I'M THE MONSTER YOU ARE MY LIFE NOW GO AWAY I'LL HURT YOU I LOVE YOU I WANT TO KILL YOU I DON'T HAVE THE STRENGTH TO STAY AWAY FROM YOU ANYMORE OH GAWWWD I'LL HURT YOU" -Edward, well....  I have nothing to say but Dracula > Edward. In every single way.
Also, the actors. Robert Pattinson looks like a foot and the chair I'm sitting on has more emotions than him.

(For Twilight fans on my friends list: the utter dislike I feel towards calling Edward & others vampires doesn't stop me from wanting to write about them, or reading about them. Meyer's writing isn't that good, the characters are too... cardboard-like for my liking, and the movie was just... staring and panting, basically.)

...oh. I ended up ranting about Twilight. That's what happens. (You know, somewhere online someone wrote about vampires fearing the sunlight and then some idiot replied: "Oh, I thought they only sparkle?" Hence the anger.)

How great, I even have a suitable userpic.

Now I'm off to dismember idiots. Including myself.

What recently developed technology—cell phones, wi-fi, laptops, handheld gaming devices, etc.—do you think has had the worst influence on how people behave in public?

Cell phones, most definitely. Alas, I live in Finland, the promised land of cell phones (I'd like to think everyone knows Nokia, but whatever), where almost everyone who has turned 10 has a cell phone. My cousin's son got one when he turned 7.
One could think that as everyone has their own people would know how to behave with those things. But they don't. Trains, buses, stores, where ever you go, people have cell phones in their hands. They're texting, blabbering, listening to music and so on - and thus they pay no attention to their surroundings. People bump into each other. It's surprising how little people actually get run over by cars and buses while they only see or hear their cell phones.
The worst part is the people who feel the need to go through their parties, sex life or relationship problems via cell phone in a bus or train. I can't describe how much it pisses me off to hear someone blabber in a train about how her boyfriend cheated on him or vice versa.
This gets worse if I find out I'm already listening to music on max volume and can't get it louder. Thus I'm forced to listen to this person talk about his sex life which I couldn't care less of.

Of course, mp3 players or iPods have a bad influence also. People don't hear and if they talk, they talk way too loud. Makes me want to scream "Get the fucking things out of your ears if you're actually going to communicate with the world around you!"

Too many LJers to list have submitted this question—what is your biggest pet peeve?

People. Mostly stupid people, smart people, people who cannot stand critique, young people, old people, people in between,
liars, ugly people, ignorant people, average people, PEOPLE.

Nina Mikkonen. She's this housewife who thinks women shouldn't go to work & that daycare is something that has been adopted from Nazis. "The system needs faithful people!" The problem is that whenever she's talking with someone she just yells and yells and keeps going on and on about how stupid the other one is. She makes me want to grab a shotgun and shout "SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
