      How many ways is a normal mirror, then? Do we call it a “no way mirror”?

        wouldn’t a one-way mirror only be used “one way” and a two-way mirror be used in “two ways”?

          While a no-way mirror is a mirror owned by a vampire.

      A one-way mirror is only one-way when the lighting conditions are correct. Otherwise you can see right through it from both sides

      Well I mean dictionaries. Kind of like how webster defines literally with

      Definition 1: In a literal manner such as …

      Definition 2: used in an exaggerated way to emphasize a statement or description that is not literally true or possible.
