January 17, 200917 yr Author So don't run around naked and always carry a firearm of some sort? This sounds easy. Surely the zombies have something more up their sleeves. The point of any of the many zombie training films is always that the zombies aren't really very smart. What kills the protagonists is that they are untrustworthy shiftless morons. "It wasn't lies.

January 17, 200917 yr Photosynthesis? You mean like Zombie Triffids? Now that's scary. Do they have stings and inexplicable control over satellite weaponry? "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)

January 18, 200917 yr Yes. Star Wars lasers and the like. Whatever's up there. The Triffids managed it, or at least the book hinted that they did and it fits Wyndham's general view of mankind bringing about its own destruction. There you'll be, all kitted out with your baseball bat and various machine guns and then zap! - the zombies take you out with an orbital laser. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

January 18, 200917 yr Watching the first episode of Dead Set right now. Good post Wals. At the part where he sacrifices the dude in the wheelchair to the zombie. Pretty awesome. There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached.

January 19, 200917 yr Unfortunately Dead Set isn't available here - so I have to wait to see it until some TV station buys the rights and airs it. I saw some trailers and clips on YouTube and it looked pretty cool - thought it was like a joke series at first (from the description), but it seem quite serious? Fortune favors the bald.

January 30, 200916 yr Some kind soul has taken it on himself to give early warning to the population of Austin, TX. link.
January 30, 200916 yr I'm watching that on the news right now. Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.
January 30, 200916 yr Author And are there zombies? they would have to appear just when I'm suffering a terrible hangover. "It wasn't lies.

January 30, 200916 yr Of course there's zombies. And they're nazi zombies. Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.

February 7, 200916 yr Would you kill zombie kittens? "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
February 7, 200916 yr Who wouldn't? Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.
February 7, 200916 yr What if it's a dead AND alive cat? "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot
February 7, 200916 yr Fine then. But you could never kill Zombie Longcat. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad!

February 7, 200916 yr I could kill Zombie Longcat. Wait, would my dogs be alive? Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.
February 7, 200916 yr Author Who wouldn't? Finally, we can expect PETA to be eaten. You know how most of our parents were jhoping we;d not turn out homosexual?

I'm fine about that, but I worry about my kids being into animal rights. Animal rights is one thing, but PETA takes it way beyond the point of reason. (reminds me of a recent Zero Punctuation where he mentions releasing a lab creature that knows nothing about life in the wild, into the wild, and watch it get eaten in five minutes by a hawk.)

Two illustrative quotes : "Everytime I read 'Pride and Prejudice' I want to dig [Jane Austen] up and beat her over the skull with her own shin-bone." "Jane is entirely impossible. It seems a great pity that they allowed her to die a natural death." (Source) Edited February 16, 200916 yr by Enoch
