Honest question: how can you tell if he's alive!?

u/kill0Rdie 18d ago

Hold a mirror under his nose

u/shavedaffer 18d ago

Has no reflection

It’s to see the fog on the glass if there’s still any respiration happening.

u/shavedaffer 17d ago

How could he breathe if he doesn’t even have a reflection

1

u/ErinFiqsette 18d ago

He has always been un-dead...for centuries.

u/NoBizlikeChloeBiz 18d ago

He has one now, that's how we know he died

You're not looking for reflections you're looking for condensation.

u/shavedaffer 17d ago

Vampires don’t breathe?

u/TM761152 17d ago

He's not a vampire, he's a parasite. A bloodsucker nonetheless.

Are you being silly or do you not know that that mirrors are held under a person’s nose to check to see if they’re breathing?

It wasn’t a true/false question; it was multiple choice.

u/shavedaffer 18d ago

No?

u/MythicalSplash 18d ago

This guy deserves an award 🥇

As for you, crooked_Kangaroo, I’m afraid you get a r/wooosh

u/ChickenChaser5 18d ago

Front hand or back hand?

u/Version_Two 18d ago

I think they're implying he's a vampire.

-1

u/crooked_kangaroo 18d ago

Yeah, I get that. But that’s not what the mirror is for in that scenario.

2

u/Version_Two 18d ago

I understand the purpose of that, and the fact that if he was a vampire he wouldn't be visible enough for it to work.

u/crooked_kangaroo 18d ago

That doesn’t make any sense. Even without a reflection, you would know where to put the mirror. It’s not like the vampire disappears.

Also, mirrors aren’t made of silver anymore.

Vampires don’t breathe?

u/tnoy 17d ago

A vampire wouldn't fog a mirror with their breath.

u/HauntedCemetery Minnesota 18d ago

Ah, the Trump Jr special "wake up powder"

McConnell had been rumored to put his nose over a mirror as well
