Shore can sound like “sure”

Dozzi92@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I’m from Jersey (New). I go down the shore, and while down the shore I go to the beach. This is how it’s always been and always will be (until the shore comes up to me because we’ve destroyed the environment)!
SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Maryland here. The shore isn’t the ocean or beach. It’s the shore.
BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Vampires are from Staten Island and Noo Yawk Citttttaaaaaay.

Californians: “idk, he just kept asking and I kept saying, like, the beach? The coast? The seaside? Eventually he just stormed off in a huff, but, yeah, no, super weird guy. I still don’t know what he wanted.”
Context: as long as I’ve been on the west coast, I’ve literally never heard anyone call it the shore.
MrShankles@reddthat.com 11 months ago
Lmao, I was having the same thought. “Shore” wouldn’t have crossed my mind unless I’m talking about Gulf Shores. And that’s a beach town in my mind. Hell, I grew up close enough to Jersey and have lived near the Gulf of Mexico for over 20 years; “shore” just isn’t in my vocab like that
frog_brawler@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Lived in FL for 28 years and the last time I heard it called the shore was in Ocean City, MD
SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 11 months ago
Yea we call our side the Eastern Shore.

I’m pretty sure the magic preventing a vampire from entering without permission would not be overcome so easily.
peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Its not magic if its real.
klemptor@startrek.website 1 year ago
Doesn’t matter if you let them in. Nothing stopping them from setting your house on fire and making you come out.
Zron@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Ah, the Harry Dresden Assassination technique

Vampires stopped existing when a wild hermit man once declared that the entire outside was their home.

vampire: Mhm -_- How would you pronouce the first three letters of “yesterday” ^may i come in^peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 1 year ago
Well the first letter is pronounced like the word why. The next one, is like the second name of rapper easy e. Now that third letter, thats a real fun pronunciation. How familiar are you with the 18th president of the USA?
owl@infosec.pub 11 months ago
Not very, but his name was “Ulysses S. Grant” wasn’t it ^may^ ^I^ ^come^ ^in?^

How does the lore work? Does the vampire need to hear the right thing or does the person need to mean the right thing?
makyo@lemmy.world 1 year ago
The whole thing is vampire propaganda to make the general population feel more safe

If I were making the rules, intent would be what mattered.
DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 11 months ago
Otherwise vampires would be getting invited in because some word means “enter” or whatever in a different language.
ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 1 year ago
If vampires are sticking to a code of ethics and honour to enter your house than this wouldn’t work
You are answering a question with an answer … not making a verbal contract
You are making a statement … not giving permission

haha! yeah!

Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Off topic, but it paints a grisly picture of humanity that all vampires have higher standards for consent than many humans.
frog_brawler@lemmy.world 11 months ago
That’s because vampires are fictional.
Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 11 months ago
You’re right, of course, but you should still see the comment about Bryan Johnson elsewhere in this thread, if you haven’t already.
qarbone@lemmy.world 1 year ago
A “standard” implies it’s a societal norm they’re participating in, rather than a supernatural compulsion they’re restricted by.
Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 year ago
That’s a good point. Perhaps they’re instead restricted by a social code of honor and limited empathy. Like they could come in against your will, but most won’t because it’s a shameful violation of vampire ethics, and they would feel bad about it.
hansolo@lemm.ee 1 year ago
Seriously.
One vampire Dev pops “by clicking agree, you consent to vampires entering your home.” Into line 57842368 of the Instagram/FB TOS and suddenly it’s a feeding frenzy…
…How does one seek a script to Black Mirror?

Dystopian technofeudalist vampire is now one of my favorite new tropes. Thank you.
kamenlady@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I’m beginning to realise that even stones may have higher standards for consent than humans.
Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 year ago
For the sake of us all, I hope you’re wrong, but history being what it has been, I’m having trouble coming up with a counterargument.
ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 1 year ago
Beach.
There’s no need to call me names, buddy
Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I would watch a sitcom about the most unlucky vampire who still manages to survive somehow.
Tattorack@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Except it doesn’t work that way. It’s not about wordplay, but the esoteric power of being explicitly invited.
Stitch0815@feddit.org 11 months ago
But it does work that way because vamipres are made up and so are the rules

Counterpoint: Buffy (the series, not the movie, not the comic) is the only true vampire canon, and everything else is fanfic, and older stuff is from future time travelers writing fanfic.
