T-Rex: So it's well known that you can't see a vampire in a mirror.
T-Rex: BUT DID YOU KNOW?
T-Rex: You can see a vampire in TWO mirrors! They're chiral and only show up when their left-right symmetry is preserved. Parity, dudes!
Utahraptor: Wow! I did not know that!
T-Rex: And you won't believe what happens when you see them under polarised light!
T-Rex: They SPARKLE!
T-Rex: Stephanie Meyer is a physics genius!
