Rock Against Bush & Random Farting On Trains

I recently thought about how to kill zombies by spraying them with pheromones so they would make out and devour each other

Hmm...*rubs chin*

My theory is the reason why i think about zombies so much is because i see much of them around me.

Most people are ''zombie-like'' as in lives have very little meaning: work, school, home, television, computer, eat, sleep, shit, reproduce, toilet and then the cycle just repeats itself from square-one. So in essence, their lives are empty and no matter how much material goods they amass, none of them will be happy.

This is what characterizes a lot of people these days unfortunately...so, in effect, they are like zombies because their souls have little connection with their creator or with anything wholesome.

So there's this book by Max Brooks called "World War X." The book makes Israel one of the world's saviors, for some reason Muslim countries decide to nuke one another, and the title is really crappy.

HOWEVER, the book describes how slow-moving, dumb zombies could actually take over the world. Some of the ideas in the book are really creative, like what effect modern weapons would have on zombies and what zombies could do underwater.

The book is also written as an oral history, which also gives it some serious straight up appeal. The writing is really good and the characters are like super-interesting. And since it's an oral history, it is actually a series of small stories with a unified theme and direction.

Another major plus: swearing and sex are at a minimum in this book.I'm actually a little embarassed to have read and enjoyed it so much, but World War X by Max Brooks really opened my eyes to the realities of zombie warfare.

Last thoughts, can zombies enter Makkah or Madinah?
