Ha! The jokes on him. When you turn into a vampire, you stay the age you are…you just live forever like that.
And it wasn’t even remotely, you know……funny.
They should also follow the lead of that Hospital in Arkansas, and get the anti-vaxxers to stop using an of the 30 common medications that used fetal cell lines during research and development.

(Because discourse does not seem to expand tweets, it is an image of a Halloween yard decoration featuring fresh dirt, a skull and a tilting headstone reading “I Did My Own Research”.)
Add to that list Dihydrogen Monoxide.
