Zombies

[Josh]

Fuck.

[Mr-K]

They can do it. Just watch Lucio Fulci's "Zombie"

They'll also get rid of any shark and topless scuba diver problems you may have.

Jesus Christ, I love that scene.

I have this book:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...books&n=507846
It actually has sound advice, it is done tongue-in-cheek, but does give you info about places to go, the best weapons, types of zombies, and what to do if the world is completely overrun by zombies. Zombies are my favorite things ever. For some good zombie reading pick up Book of the Dead and Still Dead by John Skipp & Craig Specter. They are anthologies of zombie stories by different horror writers and some of them are pretty kick-ass.

The author, Max Brooks, is the son of Mel Brooks. He came to my school to give us a brief lecture on this topic. I wish I could take a class on this kinda supernatural stuff: vampires, werewolves, etc.

But you see, it's not me, it's not my family. In your head, in your head they are fighting, with their tanks and their bombs, and their bombs and their guns. In your head, in your head, they are crying...

When the zombie invasion starts Amazon.com has got you covered.

I need to stock up...

And BTW, the zombie movie is the greatest movie genre ever.

Personally, i think robots would totally be worse than zombies. Their skin is metal, so a shotgun won't stop them. and they have flamethrowers and complex computer brains. and zombies can't enslave you like robots can. Now tell me there's nothing worse than zombies.

[Fe 26]

Yeah, but smart robots have identity crisis and demand you believe they are alive. If you ignored them, they would spend their life trying to prove to you that they are alive and not enslave you.

plus robots can be reprogrammed to be sent back to the past and save you. Try and do that with a zombie.

[MarsKitten]

Problem with robots is you send them into the old logic/contradiction loop and they usually explode. Try to reason with a zombie and you'll have a very short conversation.
Zombies: Brains!
You: Yes, lets all down to the medical school and get some highly yummy med school brain, hell they'll have some on ice for those of you that like them chilled!
Zombies start eating you!
You: OH NOES!

Robots, you can explode with words.

Without question, a zombie outbreak is one of my top dork fantasies. Zombie movies are probably one of the top types of horror movie where you always tell yourself, "Damn, I wouldn't be that stupid, I could totally have survived that." Plus, you know, it's just such a cool idea. If the world is going to fall into chaos, have it be something like that.

We really need to get real virtual reality, so we can experience things like this without actually bringing down society with a concocted virus or whatnot.
