A few truly fascinating (and slightly offensive) tidbits from good ol' Webster...
weird
adjective
suggesting something supernatural, uncanny: the weird crying of a seal.
informal: very strange, bizarre: a weird coincidence.
We're gonna change that one someday.
vampire
noun
1. a corpse supposed, in European folklore, to leave its grave at night to drink the blood of the living by biting their necks with long pointed canine teeth.
figurative: a person who preys ruthlessly on others: the protectionist vampires in the Congress.
2. (also vampire bat) a small bat that feeds on the blood of mammals or birds using its two sharp incisor teeth and anticoagulant saliva, found mainly in tropical America.
How... weird.

- Hahaha, holy shit, it's been a long time since I've even looked at my Blogger account. Yeah ok, hi, my name's Lydia. I'm a teenager, I live in the USA, and I'm genderfluid, so call me what you wish, gender-wise. I freakin' love the webcomic Homestuck, so that's probably gonna be... a lot of what I'm blogging about, if at all. I also like drawing, listening to music, and playing with my cats.
The all knowing dictonary.. NOT.
