An open-ended community for asking and answering various questions! Permissive of asks, AMAs, and OOTLs (out-of-the-loop) alike.

In the absence of flairs, questions requesting more thought-out answers can be marked by putting [SERIOUS] in the title.

I have several hypotheses:

  • the same force that stops them decaying also stops their hair from ever getting mussed up, falling out, or growing longer

  • only we can't see their reflection, they themselves can see it

  • vampires are essentially a representation of a parasitical upper class and as such they look like idealised wealthy aristocrats

Loved the second hypothesis. I feel a lot of potential there.

I was rooting for #2 but sadly I am convinced it's #3
