Subject: Which do you think will cause the first "Zombie?"

Studies show that men think about sex every 7 seconds. I do my best to eat hotdogs in under 6, just so things don't get weird.

So, what area will produce the first zombie?

By zombie I mean:
1) Mindless
2) Spreads transmission via bite
3) Aggressive
4) No biosigns (heartbeat, bloodpressure ECG)
5) Resilient (only headshots work)

So, what shoudl we worry about for zombies?

Hey, uh, if you like vs threads, then check out this little group right here, if you have the time. It's pretty fun, just hop right in.

Only headshots work? Biology doesn't work like that.

They're basically walking corpses, right?


So, here is what's puzzling me: vultures feed on corpses, but zombies constantly move (sort of). Would the vultures eat the zombies, or not because of the movement?

People also said that we would never fly. They also said that we never would go into space, let alone the moon.

Never is the time of fools.

And we, ourselves, still can't.

Planes and spaceships can, but we humans can't.

According to this my job is already infected with zombies. I work at a buffet restaurant.

You are comparing apples to oranges my friend. Your body is a living organism, not an invented airplane or spaceship.

OK, curing Polio was also thought impossible. So were many diseases.

This right here has to be one of the dumbest things people continually say.

OT: My guess is genetic engineering.

Online Gaming's pretty much like a zombie movie. There are a lot of mindless idiots roaming around but you find some survivors on the way.

If you're interested in vs threads, here's a sweet little group for you to join

Genetic engineering on rabies probably.

Although I wouldn't class them as generic Romero zombies, more like rabid aggressive humans.

Kind of like the 28 Days Later zombies. As they're more plausible.

  • 12.17.2012 1:55 PM PDT

None of those. There's no such thing as the undead. For a human's muscles to work, you need the circulatory system to be working, let alone for a bunch of other things. You also need your immune system or you would be dead in a week, eaten alive by regular bacteria and viruses. Everything in our body pretty much you need to survive effectively, which is why the normal idea of zombies is so dumb.

Now a "rage-virus" type deal where only your brain is effected, turning you into a mindless killer is possible, but you'd still die if you got shot in the heart or w/e. And you would die in a few days if you didn't drink water, etc.

I'd throw bioweapons under that outcome too.

I was at a baseball game wondering why the ball gets bigger as it comes closer.......then it hit me.......

Let's not get mad at the first guy, looking at Zombie as a species, they are designed for failure. Their form of reproduction and diet are the same thing.

Your one stop shop for all of 343's fabulous errors and ridiculous notions in the Halo lore.

Ahem, zombie ants.

Not exactly the same as your traditional zombie, but please, let us refrain from saying it is impossible.

Bath salts
I maintain that there was no drug named as such, and in fact those were actually zombies.

No dealer would sell a drug that could possibly cause his client to spontaneously eat him.

  • 12.17.2012 2:46 PM PDT

Remember those times when we all had something better to be doing, but didn't do it? Those were good times. Gooood times

No bath salt option? Cause it already happened.

Darn it, someone beat me to it

Never going to happen.

You could take enough mephedrone (aka "bath salts") to kill a small elephant, eat your entire family and you still wouldn't be a zombie.
