Vampire offers - you say yes or no?

[Pharaoh Cat]

Would you willingly accept a vampire's offer to turn you?  This vampire will honor your wishes.  Do you invite teeth to your neck?

I would be sorely tempted.

[Asmodean]

I assume this is hypothetical? We are not talking about those wannabe-goth losers pretending to be actual vampires? (No offence intended for any one except the wannabe-goth losers pretending to be actual vampires)

If it is indeed hypothetical, yes, I'd go for it. If not... No, thanks. I don't need whatever diseases their saliva is riddled with.

Well that all depends is the vampire a form of some unholy hell spawn somewhere out of the bible suggesting God exists, or is he just some fantastical immortal creature.

If he does suggest that God exists I would probably say  "I fucked up, but man I hope you didn't write the bible." To God not the vampire.

Another part of the equation is can I survive on animal blood. If not I would be tempted If I were able to find say records of why an inmate is incarcerated and probably drink the blood of rapists and child molesters.

Oh hell, no.  I don't like the conditions at all.  I might take up a werewolf's offer tho, esp. if I could turn anytime I wanted to.

Ugh! Putrid, bitter CRAP!

Every self-respecting bloodsucker knows that you gets the best taste out of babies, virgins and babies who are virgins. Preferably under the fool moon. In any case, blood of the innocents - good, blood of the scumbags - crap.

I will sacrifice taste for moral, I'm like the Brad Pitt of vampires.

And there's by belly laugh for the day. Well done, Asmodean. Well done.

It depends on what the symptoms of vampirism are. If it doesn't involve making me "evil", or otherwise changing my mind, personality, or personal ethics, I could probably make it work. Instead of spending money on groceries, I could just pay homeless people for small (safe) amounts of blood to sustain myself. I'd have to experiment with sunblock, to see if there was a way to cheat the whole daylight thing. Tanning cream would be a must. The idea of permanent youth and immortality seems very attractive to me. I like the idea of my life ending, eventually, because I feel I've had a full life, not because of an arbitrary lifespan because of the way by body works.

If there's looking glittery, though, I'm out. That's just silly.

Use cream cheese.

Also I don't know anymore the idea of living forever sounds terrible, but then again I could just fly over and steal some morphine...drugs still affect vampires right?

Ugh..! You people!

At least go for Wall Street sharks, eh..? Their blood has all the cool vitamins and proteins and whatnots...

Imagine being able to get every PhD, traveling to every country, learning to play every musical instrument, being able to pursue every dream you've ever had, all because you have hundreds and hundreds of years at your peak age. That doesn't sound awesome?

Murder's murder. That said, Vampire Will wouldn't be above fucking with people.

[Asmodean]

Murder's murder. 

Not if you are above the object of killing on the food chain. Then it's... Just food.

Not if you are above the object of killing on the food chain. Then it's... Just food.

Interesting philosophical questions.

1) Does being higher on the food chain than another sentient being allow for your killing of that being for sustenance?

2) If one were to become a vampire, does one truly stop being human?

[Asmodean]

1) Does being higher on the food chain than another sentient being allow for your killing of that being for sustenance?

Yes, especially if you depend on something specific to that being to survive, but yes in any case. That's what being higher on the food chain means. That you can, and do, eat that which is below your more-or-less noble self 

2) If one were to become a vampire, does one truly stop being human?

Undead vampire? Then I'd say yes. Some other weird variety..? Depends.

Well if you understood me and my apathy it would be terrible, but if I had the motivation, I so lack, (though I do have the want)to do all these things it would be awesome but then again certain drugs ad highly to my creative and motivational need. So I'm not exactly wanting to do them for the sake of being high. Some people are happy in their current state of mind I like altered ones.

I would also like to see current events unfold and the things I listed in "the things you will miss when you die" thread, but there isn't that cliche immortal saying of how it is terrible out living all of your loved one. I would have to convince my family to turn with me, which seems very hard to do on my end.

Though it might be a nice novelty for oh say 1000 years or 10 lifetimes, many seem to think that it would be a curse and would lose its meaningfulness,  to live forever that is.

Edit: I guess you could always off yourself.

What kind of vampire...True Blood, Angel, Dracula?
