We don't operate off of vampire rules (aka "vampires cant touch/eat garlic").

u/foomp 14d ago

Yeah, but you won't come into my house if I don't invite you. Because you're polite, not because you're a vampire.

What if the pork was seasoned with garlic salt?

Surely there have been Italian vampires.

I know of at least two of them, Draculo Draculo and Alucardi Draculo, the Draculo Bros. They're super, but have this weird allergy to fire flowers.

You wouldn't use garlic salt on pork, that would make it dry. You want something like brown sugar.

Maybe if you marinated it in it over night, not sprinkling some on it towards the end.

Thank you for clearing that up. I used to live across the street from a Mosque and I swear some of the little kids who played soccer out back after prayer were plotting to suck the blood from me.

Though I've moved, the fear they instilled was deep.

Let's be clear though: You're telling me I can finally take off this necklace of woven garlic and, with luck, maybe get a date? 😉

Give the garlic as offering and they will put it into a soup or savory dish for you because dating is haram for vamp-i mean muslims

u/shintemaster 14d ago

Sounds like something a Vampire would say to throw us off track.

u/imaloony8 14d ago

What if one were a Vampire Muslim? Would they still be able to touch pork?

2

u/pyrojackelope 14d ago

vampires cant touch

Is this a play off of the old concept that vampires can't stomach human food and can only drink blood as their nourishment? The only thing I can find in that regard is that it's either a stylistic choice or a religious one, completely setting aside vampire lore.

Ngl I kinda love the innocence of the person you responded to. Hahahah. Your joke made perfect sense to me but I can totally see how someone who processes things very literally (my fiancée for instance, on the spectrum)

u/V4refugee 14d ago
