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!

What will you do if you encouter a zombie?

What will it be A:shoot it in the head with a handgun, B:beat the crap out of it with your fist, or C:dance with the zombie.
#2 Posted by Hamz (6842 posts) - 4 years, 8 months ago

D.) Beat the living crap out of it with a crowbar because we all know that when you meet a zombie you crowbar the fucker.

"Shoot it! Shoooot it!!" ...I pick option A! :D

#4 Posted by Roger_Klotz (706 posts) - 4 years, 8 months ago

I dont own a handgun so that eliminates choice A.

I dont think my fist will do much good against a zombie. B, no.

That zombie better know how to dance.

D is not a option so your post does not count.

 I don't own a handgun either, so A's a no go for me as well.

I agree with your assesment on B.

As for C.. It wouldn't matter if the Zombie could dance, because I can't.

So either way, I'm screwed...
#8 Posted by Stevokenevo (572 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

can i dance with my fists?  id like to try that because the zombie would get confused and forget why it was attacking me.....hopefully.

Call Gordon Freeman.

#10 Posted by Gizmo (5382 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

Or Gordon Freemans Brother.

He knows how to deal with zombie goasts

Do a barrel roll.

This is what would happen with most people.

They would get so scared by it that there feet would stop working and they  would just fall down on the ground. Then the zombie would come and bite them.
#15 Posted by guiseppe (2712 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

Honestly? If I saw a real, no bs zombie, I would probably run away from it faster than I have ever run before.

But zombies are slow. Wouldn't you slowly walk away from it to tease it?

I would circle-strafe it and poke it with a long stick

That sounds fun as well. 

#19 Posted by demonbear (1819 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

I'd pick A) Shoot it in thaaaaAAAHHHHHRRGGG GET IT OFF, GET IT OFFFFFF!! OWWW THE PAAAAINNN, SWEET MOTHER OF AAARRHH!H!!!!!..........  ..........   *moans* BRAAAAAAINS! *moans*

#20 Posted by MB (9884 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

I would go hide out in the mountains Red Dawn style.  Remember, never shoot twice - if you shoot twice, the Zombies will know exactly where you are!

What kind of Zombie are we talking about here? Like the normal 50's movie Zombie or the 28 Days Later kind. Cause I'd book it if it was the 28 Days Later kind but if it was the other one I'd probably retreat at a moderate pace.

#22 Posted by AnTiPRO (93 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

First off I doubt you're going to have a gun when you encounter a random zombie...so personally I would find something to impale its head with....that's all I got.

#23 Posted by fluffsman (36 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

My Zombie survival handbook says crowbars are the best against a zombie.

That's all I want for my birthday.

#24 Posted by Mexalen (232 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

If I could pick any weapon (and the skill to handle it right), I'd pick a halberd or other polearm. That grants you a certain distance but is handy in the infight too, you can knock em over, behead them, it doesn't run out of ammo.

What are the chances I have a weapon like that on me, when I turn a corner and see a Z?
#25 Posted by OmegaPirate (5441 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

Quite good if you work in a halberd factory

#26 Posted by BrickRoad (690 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

Are we talking dance as a form of self defence? Like some Jackson esque battle of the moves? If so then no, no I would not dance.

#27 Posted by Psynapse (1064 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

I would B: beat the crap out if it with my fists, then A: shoot it in the head with a handgun, lastly i would C: dance with the zombie.

#28 Posted by betterthantelevision (82 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

I suppose I missed the 'shit my pants' option. That's pretty much what I'd do.

I was actually going to say that I'd probably do a poorly choreographed dancing in an alley with them.

E) Zombies are hungry, therefore, they give a good head. :3

I second that. You're going to be begging us to help you when the zombies attack because you don't have a Zombie Plan.

It's sad to see that some people don't want to see the truth.

Although I wouldn't mind re-enacting thriller the only real answer here is shoot it in the head with my Chuck Norris brand handgun.

I doubt  zombies would cooperate as well as the zombies used in Thriller....

#42 Posted by Carlos (504 posts) - 4 years, 7 months ago

At first I think I would stab it with my sword, but then again if it did happen, I would probably cry and drop in the dead beetle position.

Sure, go dance with them. You'll only end up becoming zombified yourself.
Let's see, the only kind of gun I possess is a... Nail gun? Would that work?
