Like what you saw or read here? Interested in getting rid of some of that pesky extra money you've got just sitting under your mattress? Well, consider throwing a few bucks in my tip jar!
So, this really hits home the idea of zombies being most dangerous in packs/large numbers. They just swarm mindlessly and…ew.
BUT, I was really hoping this would be done sort of documentary style to preserve the feeling of the book. So, we’ll see.
REI’S ZOMBIE SURVIVAL INFOGRAPHIC
I’ve gotta slightly disagree with the vest. It’s potentially grab-able and won’t come free unless you unzip it…meaning you’re in bite range for far too long.
Also: whacking with a frying pan is risky. Zombies don’t feel pain so it isn’t as effective as against a living target. That said, if you think it’ll give you some room, whack away.
Finally: shining a light in a zombie’s eyes to disorient it? LOL no. If you are close enough to shine that shit in it’s face and all you have is a flashlight, just suck it up and get used to moaning “BRAAAAAAAAAINS.”

You have to face
the awful truth:
one day
the shambling
zombie hordes will
descend upon us
ripping your friends
and family
limb from limb
or worse,
infecting them with the
zombie virus
(created by an
unchecked multinational
corporation
who placed profits
above human life
while working on a
secret
government
contract)
meaning you might
be forced to shoot
them in the head.
But enough about that.
This is the
awful truth:
on that day
there will only be
so many
malls
to go around.
Call dibs on the one
with the best stores
while there is still time.
Yep. Another year, another Zombiefest in Pittsburgh.
Buzznet’s 2011 Zombie Playlist is waiting for you…IF YOU DARE!
Buzznet needs your help to put together the ULTIMATE Halloween Playlists. This week, we need MUSIC FOR ZOMBIES.
Pittsburgh once again hosted a Zombie Walk for World Zombie Day. Of course, there are pictures. More to come as they are edited!
A question in the spirit of the season: Can zombie sex ever be consensual? Because I think if confronted with a zombified Zac Efron, I might go for it if he were properly restrained. Can you teach a zombie a safe word? Does it count if it’s “braaaains”? It’s not necrophilia with the WALKING dead, is it? What would you say is the sexual morality of this situation?
Hope In Zombie Zac If Ethical
If you’d seen Zombieland, HIZZIE, you’d know that a hot person, once transformed into a zombie, isn’t hot anymore. A pretty girl falls asleep in the arms of Zombieland’s nebbishy hero and awakes as a thoroughly hideous flesh-eating monster. Even a zombified Zac Efron—I’m going to resist the obvious joke—would be too repulsive to fuck. Think of the gore, the viscera; think of the Axe body spray.
As for the morality of the situation, fucking zombies is still necrophilia, technically speaking, but practically speaking, it comes closer to bestiality. A human being who has been zombified is nothing but an animal, hungry for brains, incapable of thought, much less consent. We can kill animals for their flesh, but we mustn’t fuck them, HIZZIE; we can kill zombies for wanting our flesh, but likewise we mustn’t fuck them.
