Maybe I'm a heartless bastard, but fuck walking all over the south in the zombie plague looking for a dumb little girl.

I'd tell him to go to hell
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Once Upon a Time seems to have potential for a network show.

Probably will be hurt by the fact that they cant "True-Blood-it-up" and that sits basically LOST again.

I'm mildly surprised that Disney let them realitify certain characters. Snow White got pregnant? Hmmm....

The next two movies I'll probably pay money to go out and watch are that new joint with Stiller, Murphy and Affleck, and then of course J. Edgar.
From the town of Possum's Paw, Alabama, standing 6'2" and weighing 150 lbs, the one, the only, the legend... Bootney Farnsworth.

Alright, this is driving me nuts... was there a movie in like the mid to late 80s or early 90s that was basically a rip-off of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" but a straight comedy? Complete with even an impromptu fishing trip... but minus the lobotomies? I seem to remember seeing it on cable tv back in the day, but now I can't remember what it was called and I think I might just be nuts myself.

The zombie argument

Post by T Dot O Dot » Sun Oct 23, 2011 11:24 pm

posted last year on WX, but always a classic :

http://www.cracked.com/article_18683_7- ... uickly.htm
Let's pretend for a moment that zombies are real (as if half of you weren't already daydreaming about that very thing). Have you noticed how most zombie movies take place only after the apocalypse is in full-swing? By the time we join our survivors, the military and government are already wiped out, and none of the streets are safe.

There's a reason the movie starts there, and not earlier. It's because the early part, where we go from one zombie to millions, doesn't make any sense. If you let the creeping buzzkill of logic into the zombie party, you realize the zombies would all be re-dead long before you even got a chance to fire up that chainsaw motorcycle you've been working on. Why?

Hey, remember that time when that dog got rabies, and then a day later, every single other dog on the continent had it, except for a small band of survivors huddled in a basement? No? That never happened?

Nearly all of the zombie movies agree on one thing: They reproduce like a disease, one that spreads via a bite from the infected (like they have a virus carried by zombie saliva or whatever). But this also means their spread should be subject to the same rules of a normal epidemic, and biting is a **** way to get an epidemic going.

The successful diseases have some really clever way to invisibly spread from victim to victim. The flu has killed tens of millions because it floats right through the air, the black plague was spread by fleas, etc. Not a single one of them requires the infected to get within biting distance to spread their infection. Sure, sexually transmitted diseases like AIDS work that way, but that's only because the infected can pass for the uninfected. Nobody is going to be having sex with a zombie.


Though Google Image Search does turn up a large volume of zombie porn

But let's say there is an outbreak, like if one zombie was able to bite 30 people in the crowd at an Insane Clown Posse concert before they figured out it wasn't part of the show. It's not like mankind is just utterly confused about what to do when an infection breaks out. In America you have the Center for Disease Control (CDC,) who don't tend to **** around. Seriously, it's on their business cards.



Remember the SARS outbreak? That originated in China. The CDC and the World Health Organization put the clamps down on international travel the second it was found to have spread to North America. Flights were grounded, travel between borders was locked tight and only 43 people on the entire continent died.


No one was overlooked.

With zombieism, they don't even have to solve the mystery about how it's transmitted. It's that guy biting people. Shoot him in the head.

the BE episode didn't go in the direction I thought it would. I won't give it away but two face running thru the woods isn't such a big deal

Yeah, I expected a larger relevance (and drama) to that.

its pretty shitty of them to set that scene up - because you know people drew parallels to the Russian woods scene in the Sopranos. I'm convinced they did that on purpose.

That said, BE is a compelling show.

I was thinking last night about how easy it actually was to get away with murder in 1920
