I think the worst thing about a zombie apocalypse would be the smell.

Just saying.

1. Haven't you read World War Z yet?

Zombies are done rotting and don't smell all funky and shit. The survivors on the other hand.....

:)

3. I just read that last week...BRILLIANT

I'm still waiting on Pride and Prejudice and Zombies to come in at the library.

9. It's the War and Peace of zombie novels!

It should be mandatory reading for everyone. :evilgrin:

[MrCoffee]

10. Ever read a book called Warday?

It's very much the same style as World War Z, but following a limited nuclear exchange between the US & USSR (published in 1984). Really well done and worth the read.

[Forkboy]

11. As a matter of fact, I have read it.

I enjoyed it a lot. There was a sort of sequel called Nature's End that was ok, but it was far more in the sci-fi area.

12. Continuing with that thought ...

I recommend taking a look at Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

http://www.amazon.com/Pride-Prejudice-Zombies-Classic-Ultraviolent/dp/1594743347

excellent book if I do say so myself.

I think you could make a lot of the classics a whole lot more interesting by adding a zombie outbreak into the setting.

Great Expectations and Zombies, Crime and Punishment and Zombies, Romeo and Juliet and Zombies etc.

2. decaying brains auto-shotgunned against the walls

Yummo!

4. It's not so much the smell

as the bits falling off of them everywhere

[Soylent Brice]

5. the Zombie Survival Guide instructs

you to burn the bodies after a siege. it also helps avoid contamination of gardens you may be growing in your "compound" or "stronghold", basically whatever structure you are defending.

this he recommends for both that and to do away with the smell.

6. That would be the worst thing?

You mean the worst thing wouldn't be the zombies eating people while they're alive?

I mean, of all the things that are wrong with the zombie apocalypse, you chose the smell as the worst?

:P

[Deep13]

8. Well, suppose you are holed up safe.

There's still no getting away from that smell.

[charlie and algernon]

18. that's why you find some mountain in Montana or Wyoming

far from any potential zombie source and smell and plenty of food to hunt.

[Nicole Lambeth]

7. I think the screams of the dying would bother me more than the smell...

but I'm a total weenie, too. And you can't shoot them to put them out of their misery, either. Gotta save the ammo!

[Deep13]

15. Let's hope the I-pod juice holds out. nt

[AllenVanAllen]

13. No A/C in the zombie infested South would be the worst

Oh yeah, and the insane crows trying to peck your eyeballs out would be pretty bad too.

[Deep13]

14. What happens to the living dead (or any dead) in that heat?

Whew! That stinks!

[LeftOfSelf-Centered]

16. I don't think so...

The worst part about a Zombie Apocalypse would be the dancing.
Trust me...
:hide:

[Deep13]

17. Whoa! I hadn't thought of that! nt

[LeftOfSelf-Centered]

19. Think about it....

The whole world would be one giant Michael Jackson video....
