A Kind of Ridiculous Argument

A good deal of the left side of my upper body is sore. I wonder why....

Like most siblings, my sister and I get into arguments. Personally, I think we get into more arguments than other siblings, but who knows. What I do know is while some of our arguments have substantial points, there are some that start from something completely ridiculous.

Enter The Great Zombie Sticker Debate.

It all started the night before my race. I was staying the night at my aunt and uncle's condo. Knowing of my nerdy past perhaps, my uncle thought he would give me this sticker he got from work.

Clever right? I thought so. All was well in the universe until my sister got a look at it.

"What? I want that!" Chloe said. "Why would you get that, I'm more into zombies than you are."

And that's when the Great Zombie Debate began.

Now, it's not really about the sticker. The argument lies in who is more interested in zombies. My sister's argument is that she introduced me to the book World War Z (A great book by the way, even if you're not into zombies). I find that if that's her only argument, she has most definitely lost. Who has watched multiple zombie flicks? Me. Who went out as an undead tennis player for Halloween one year? You got it. However, she still thinks she wins the debate. I beg to differ.

Goodness, when did it become cool to like zombies? Oh right, The Walking Dead.


What's the most ridiculous argument you've ever had?

Things I Have Learned From Fictional Characters

Today’s Thing I Have Learned From Fictional Characters comes from every zombie movie I’ve ever seen.
Always be prepared for a zombie attack, just don’t be that crazy shut in who only thinks about zombie attacks. This might sound a little crazy, but there’s a method to my madness.

In many zombie movies, the setting seems innocent enough at the beginning or somewhere around the beginning. Slowly but surely, you come to the realization that there’s something off. Zombies emerge into the scene, and chaos runs rampant.

The main characters (non-zombie) can be seen throughout the entirety of the film battling zombies, but they had to make sure they could stay alive for that long. Sometimes that involves a zombie breaking into their house, and that means you’ve got to be prepared!

Which brings us to the What To Do If a Zombie Attacks game. Look around wherever you’re sitting right now. Think to yourself: If a zombie was coming at me right now, what tool could I use to bash its head in? You can’t think as well when a crazy half dead is coming right at you. That’s how you play! Quite simple, and useful just in case.

Just don’t be that crazy shut in who obsesses about an upcoming zombie onslaught. Seriously, have a life worth living before the zombie apocalypse. Besides, they usually end up dying anyways, and go bat-s**t crazy before they do. …If they weren’t already.

I hoped you enjoyed that little PSA, because well… you never know!

What is the strangest Zombie movie you’ve ever seen? Definitely Black Sheep for me… Zombie sheep? Oh geez.
