Zombie Plan

[DeathBrewer]

So would they be living zombies and/or mutants?

They've been infected with "rage"

"Infected with Rage",

I am seeing a new tag line for Yuri some where in this

I think they are zombies, in 28 day/weeks later and I am legend

you want to see people infected with rage
go ask a union crew to work during a break !
or ask a DMV/Courthouse worker for help

From Wikipedia


"A zombie is a creature that appears in folklore and popular culture typically as a reanimated corpse or a mindless human being."

 

[TwoHeadsBrewing]

I plan to be in the first wave of the infected...and therefore become the strongest and most heinous of zombies. All other zombies will respect and fear me and will bring offerings of the living to my lair. I will command the masses to exterminate the pestilence that is the human race, so we can bring our more evolved species to its logical position at the top of the food chain. No more will we watch our fellow comrades be chopped down by shovels, blown apart by shotguns, or dismembered by chainsaws! Together we will advance on the last vestiges of the living and cry with one voice...BRAAAAAIIIIINNNNNNSS!!!!

Meh. They used the word "typically". And you should no better than to quote wikipedia

A zombie is dead. Like in Voodoo where they would reanimate dead people. There have actually been cases of this where the person was not dead, but they were thought to be dead, and that's where the term originated. Also, like vampires, during the plague when they would bury people that were presumably dead, but then they would get up and walk around the graveyard because they were mis-diagnosed.

When I fall asleep in my chair, my friend will slap me and say "wake up, you zombie". That doesn't make me a zombie

Based on that definition most of the people in the San Fran area are zombies.

Dang-it. See what happens, I go out on mission for a couple days and miss out on all this shameless post-whoring.

 

[Cheeto]

Really?,

WTF is stopping you?

just wait 30 seconds between posts !!!

-Jason

 

[travestyofnature]

Really?! Just 30 seconds?

And isn't the term really "un-dead"? Not dead but not alive? Why are you two arguing? I'm confused.

 

[DeathBrewer]

No, that's vampires. Zombies are dead.

The coming Zombie-pocalypes and Zombie Preparedness in general made it to Canadian Public Radio...Monday on their version of All things COnsidered (called "As It Happens")

CHICAGO ZOMBIE CLUB Duration: 00:06:30


You know that colleague who looks half-dead? That haggard woman at the coffee shop who could barely raise her voice to order a latte? Well, I have some bad news: they just may be zombies. Okay, I sugarcoated it. They are zombies. And if you hadn't hustled away at top speed, they would have torn open your skull and eaten your brains.

Fortunately, we have a zombie-attack expert on the line. He's Alexander Tievsky -- the President of the University of Chicago-based Zombie Readiness Task Force. He's not at school today -- probably because he's hiding from zombies -- so we reached him in Seoul, South Korea.

Oh great...We've discussed zombie marsupials in other threads....but damn, zombie ants?!?

I saw some nasty ass ants when I lived in Florida...I swear, one time when I ran to the store there was a dead frog on my driveway; when I got back 20 minutes later, all that was left was a pile of bones, not one spec of flesh was left....but hundreds of little ants were still pouring over the carcass...

Zombie pirannah ants, wunderful.

So besides Shotguns and machetes, we need giant magnifying glasses as well?

A new weapon to wield against the zombie hordes. Solar powered death ray!!

I'm ready to DIY one. Who's got plans?

 

[Cheeto]

these guys had a few ideas

We all might have to step up our zombie preparation efforts if this experiment on ants goes wrong. New weapon turns fire ants into headless zombies | ajc.com

New weapon turns fire ants into headless zombies
FORT WORTH, Texas — Researchers in Texas are trying an unusual approach to combat fire ants — deploying parasitic flies that turn the pesky and economically costly insects into zombies whose heads fall off.

The biting, territorial fire ants cost the Texas economy about $1 billion annually by damaging electrical equipment, according to a Texas A&M study. They can also threaten young calves.

But now the researchers are trying a tiny phorid fly, native to a region of South America where the fire ants originated. Researchers have learned that fire ants in their home region are kept under control by as many as 23 phorid species.

The flies lay eggs on the fire ants, and the eggs hatch into maggots inside the ant and eat away at the pest's tiny brain.

The ant will get up and wander for about two weeks while the maggot feeds, said Rob Plowes, a research associate at the University of Texas at Austin.

"There is no brain left in the ant, and the ant just starts wandering aimlessly," he said.

About a month after the egg is laid, the ant's head falls off — and a new fly emerges ready to attack another fire ant.

"They're not going to completely wipe out the fire ant, but it's a way to control their population," said Scott Ludwig, an integrated pest management specialist with Texas A&M's AgriLife Extension Service in Overton, in East Texas.

Four phorid species have been introduced in the state since 1999. They don't attack native ants or other species and have been introduced in other Gulf Coast states, Plowes told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.

But it will take time to determine if the flies are effective in Texas, perhaps as long as a decade.

"It's not an immediate silver-bullet impact," Plowes said.

Because zombie children like them.

Back on message...

Crap, what's worse headless zombie fireants OR the flies that make them?

Guess we need these as well...

 

[keelanfish]

I'd forgotten about the turtle kid. What's in that pic? Giant fly swatters?

 

[arturo7]

Zombies, and antses and flies...

Oh My!

 

[HBHoss]

That's how it goes. Introduce one foreign creature (fire ants with no local enemies) and let it cause problems then bring in a natural enemy of said creature (the fly that has no local enemies) and then they will get out of control forcing yet another remedy until the system is so out of wack that the zombie apocalypse occurs.
