You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I believe (but here I may be talking shite and I hope Nilly and/or billytea or someone with more knowledge will either correct me or back me up) that the vampire myth predates Christianity.

This is true; strictly, the European vampire myths are Eastern European myths, which themselves probably originated from contact with the Far East (where they have a long an illustrious career). There are references to vampires in Ancient Babylonian and Assyrian writings, and they apear in Ancient Greece as well.

One of the vampire myths is that Adam's pre-Eve wife Lilith is the/an ur-vampire.

This is also true, and can be dated (IIRC) from Ancient Babylon.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Incidentally - was it Billytea who suggested "Are you now or have you ever been: UnAmerican Buffistas" as the next thread title? Because I'm still loving it.

Not me, though I'd be happy to see it happen.

And Nilly comes through with the Nillying! Proving once again that she is in fact a computer program, not a flesh'n'blood mortal. Go Team Nilly.

Apologies to Jim.

Yes I am a flesh'n'blood mortal, and all the Buffistas who have met me can attest to that - oh, wait, never mind.

Which means, thanks for the compliment, Fay.

I love the fact that the term 'unUn' exists. It is a marvel of Buffistahood.

If I only had a brain...

I am un-un, but in the event of war I shall start claiming to be Canadian.

Cindy - Feb 03, 2003 11:13:15 am PST #1665 of 9843

Nobody

Me too, but I consider the Canadians to be unUn as well.
