i've heard a lot of good things about that series, but I think i'm like one of the seemingly very few that doesn't really care for zombies.

Same. It's not like vampires and shit like that are any better, but the whole zombie thing just feels played out to me. I've never really liked Night of the Living Dead or any other popular zombie movies, although I've only seen a few.

However, if it's anything like Dexter/Breaking Bad/Weeds as far as writing is concerned, I just might change my opinion.

Zombieland was a great movie. It didn't play as depressing despite the fact that there were only 4 people left alive in the world...it was great.

I love zombie stories, but only when it's really about people/society more than blood and gore. Some of the best zombie stories I've read only mention them in passing.

My last position at work was rather mindless and repetitive with ample time to think. I realized that my workplace was possibly a perfect place to hold out. I work for a book manufacturer in an industrial area, we've got a rather large maintenance area with a couple of really good fabricators (our presses are from the early 60s, we make most of our own replacement parts at this point), we've got a water purification system and large fire doors we can reinforce with skids of paper. A little down the road we've got warehouses storing food for Friendly's and some other restaurant, and our plant is surrounded by flat open land and a rather large pond (usually with a good size gaggle of trusting geese).

having read the entirety of the comics(lolnerd) i can tell you that the story progresses in a great fashion, it becomes less and less of a story about zombies, but more of a survival story entwined with commentary on the duality of man with a zombie backdrop. It presents the point that once you are past the initial outbreak, surviving zombies is the easy part. Surviving in a world where only the strong and the careful survive is a completely different story. It shows alot about what people have to do in order to survive.

oh good, that means I'm not the only one who has thought of where I would hold up in case of a zombie apocalypse. I even have a route in my mind from my house to said place.

My coworkers and I have discussed this too, oddly enough. One of them is one of those Republican gun nut jobs with like 400 weapons, a mixture of rifles, shotguns pistols and even some hand grenades and assault weapons.


We're going to his house via a fleet of forklifts, armed with shovels, garden shears, flooring nail staple guns, etc.

I work for Lowes :D

Owning a lot of guns doesn't make you a nut.


It makes you prepared. Plus, guns are valuable, so depending on what he has, he could make a serious profit.


PS I have a luger from ww2.

If your forklifts are like most box-store forklifts you won't get far. Flat wheels work for concrete but are terrible in any other condition.
