zombie dream

Had a zombie dream.

With slow old-school Zombies.

…which are a lot less terrifying than the new-school type. You can just walk away, as long as there aren’t too many of them.

Then the crew of the Star Trek Enterprise showed up.

Man, I hate Star Trek.

…and I also hated that I had to be careful to not mention that I knew of the show, and thus break the fourth wall and imperil the audience’s suspension of disbelief.

Dang old weird lucid / meta dreaming!

In other zombie blogging:

Zombification—or the reanimation of the dead—is something we Gormogons don’t like to talk about in public. The raising of the dead as mindless slaves to unleash upon the terrified living is a profoundly unsettling topic. And our patents are still pending.

…which points to a fascinating / weird story about the mess that is Haiti, here.

    “Man, I hate Star Trek”

    Star Trek the concept?

    A particular series or movie?

    Or that JJ Abrams rewrote the whole time line?

    He most loathes old (TV) trek.

    He dislikes people fawning upon it (or anything, really — Monty Python works too).

    He doesn’t care about the concept (IMO).
    I don’t think he’s seen the JJ Abrams treatment (which IMO was decent but not redemptive).

    I don’t see where he gets the energy for it.

    Tired old man, hate is invigorating.

    It is, in fact, the next best thing to bathing in the blood of young virgins.

    Best to take it in small doses, say, two minutes at a time.

    The second paragraph of the zombie story is amazing.

    These zombie dream could easily be resolved if people would just burn there dead and flush their ashes down the can.

    Patrick has a good point – I think we all know how well just walking away from a slower-moving but higher-endurance predator worked out for gazelles and deer up against humans with spears.
