'Vampire Test'
Something interesting that I came across while reading the book 'Show your work' by @austinkleon
A little context-
Picasso used to completely drain out a person of all his energies when he met them.

One would have a great time hanging all day with Picasso but would be completely exhausted by the end of the day, not able to do anything.
And well for Picasso, he used to feed on the energy that he sucked and paint all night!

And yet, people were hanging out with Picasso because after all, he was the great Picasso!
But Constantin Brâncuși, the famous Romanian-born Sculptorist refused to have anything to do with Picasso.
Hailing from Romania, Constantin knew a Vampire when he saw one.

And then @austinkleon talks about the Vampire Test'which is-
If you feel worn out or depleted after hanging out with someone, that person is a vampire.
This test not only lets you decide whom you should let in and out of your life, but it works on everything. Jobs, hobbies,etc

Summing it up, Vampires cannot be cured. Should you find yourself in a place of a vampire, swear not to hang around it for the rest of your life!
