...there is, ever has been, or ever will be a zombie apocalypse? The whole zombie phenomenon is something that I don't really understand. Although, referring to Easter as Zombie Jesus Day did make me giggle and worry that I might be struck by lightning at the same time.

What do you believe (in reference to zombies, that is)?

    There is totally going to be a zombie apocalypse. I have to tell myself that to justify the weaponry in the crawlspace.

    It doesn't look possible, but I've got the chainsaw ready just in case.

    I believe.
    And I'm prepared.

    For some reason, upon reading this I got the song "Man On The Moon" by REM stuck in my head. Dunnooowhy.

    I need to get some swords,axes, and bowie knives. I have plenty of guns and ammunition, but eventually I'll run out of bullets.

    I hate everything about this current zombie craze. I'll add vampires (particularly those that sparkle) in with my hatred as well.

    I don't know, but I might as well use it as an excuse to work out.

    Of course. Why else would a movie like "Zombieland" exist except as a guide?

    ^^Same here^^

    My stepmother made me watch far too many horror movies as a young child and now I am a total wimp in regards to scary stuff.
    If a zombie apocalypse happens, I am just going to hand myself over and hope they'll be gentle.

    Hmmm, mindless masses, driven by the desperate desire to consume, with total disregard for life in their insensible drive to achieve satiety...

    Yep, we're already in a zombie apocalypse...

    It'll happen eventually, this is why I train like Bruce Campbell!

    In all honesty, there's no reason why it couldn't - check this out on a newly discovered fungus, turning carpenter ants into zombies:

    Always be vigilant, and fully loaded!

    I'm afraid to make comments that might offend a zombie and hence get another strike today.

    Might want to rethink your choice of weapon.

    a) It could eventually run out of fuel
    b) It makes too much of a racket, attracting more zombies and/or unfriendly humans

    Never happen...I'm saving all my ammo for the day the American economy collapses and I need it to hold off hordes of looters.

    The advent of a nuclear attack was and still could be a very plausible possibility...zombies though just seems like a huge stretch, that's why I have a hard time with it.

    This also seems more plausible than zombies.

    Oh, I never said it was my only weapon. I have many in the anti-zombie arsenal and a girl should never give away all her tricks and secrets. Since I'm in a generous mood today, however, I'll share this one: http://pinterest.com/pin/140596819586882171/

    Bullets will be more valuable than gold thats for sure. I already have 25000 rounds of misc calibers , and about 17000 rounds of .22 lr.
