Zombie

Concept »

A term used to (inaccurately) describe the walking dead. They feed largely on the flesh of the living, but are sometimes depicted as craving brains specifically. They often move slowly, due to rigor mortis, but are extremely deadly in large numbers. Unfortunately, they're always found in groups. Shotgun time!

The Zombies Really ARE Coming!!!

I actually saw that on the news last night, I thought it was pretty funny.

Awesome, man.

I wish I would've been in Austin to see it.  I understand the safety hazards this could cause on a busy highway, but at the same time...yeah, it's pretty fucking awesome.

The real question is this:  how the hell did someone actually get to the box on the thing and know how to hack it?  Moreover, why weren't their cameras watching it, people watching it, people working in the area, etc?  lol  Oh well.

It was just a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity where God knew that this would be totally freakin sweet, so he led the way.

That's hilarious.  It's not a very good thing to do, but it sure is funny.

That's really awesome. I was actually wondering yesterday about people who've been able to do this.

BWAHAHAHA!!!!  You kidding?  With me and Log still residing in this fine state, I can guarantee we'll clear the place out our damn selves!  No need for nukes.  = D

No, don't nuke 'em! I want the zombies to come to the Tri-State area! I want to show them the power of the combined strength of The Boss, smog, aggressive drivers, and the Asian population of upper New Jersey! (if you don't live here, you don't know what I am talking about for the last one)

Funny stuff, funny stuff.

The Boss would probably just write a shitty acoustic song about them for charity benefits.  =  /  Either that, or he and Courtney Cox would dance them to death.
Actually, I would pay good money to see them dance the zombies to death.

Here's the funnier thing.  My buddy, dice, lives in Austin.  He came up to Waco last night, and when I asked him about it, he said he had no clue about it.  lol

He's a zombie. Kill him, or bring him here so he can spread the virus. I haven't spent all of this time in Left 4 Dead for only fun you know!

Nah, he's totally not a zombie.  His nose was still attached to his face, and he never once said the word "brains" or "flesh".

Problem with swords is that they have to be sharpened after a while.  That's why I'd go with the traditional black Louisville with nails in it wrapped in barbed wire.  = D

Goddammit, Texas. These false alarms only serve to make us less ready for when the REAL zombie apocalypse comes around!

I have to be able to get to my bunker as fast as possible in order to minimize my chances of being infected. Every minute I spend checking if it's legit is another minute for the zombies to get closer to me, and I WILL NOT HAVE THAT.
