.. or it's beginning ..
.. or it began ..

A train in Canada with about 280 people on board has been put under quarantine, after one passenger died and several others reported flu-like symptoms.

Source: BBC news

Could this be the Zombie outbreak? It supposedly happened an hour ago, so if movies/books have taught us anything, then the passenger will re-animate in 2 hours.

Nah, it's actually a severe case of gonorrhea!

BeerWolf · 10-05-2008 2:03am

How's that anything to do with zombies?

Peyton Manning · 10-05-2008 2:04am

Whatever the explanation, Ive already boarded up my windows and doused the driveway in petrol.

Black Swan · 10-05-2008 2:06am

Naaaaa, it was the Lizard People experimenting a new agent on their northern neighbors. Puts a whole new spin on "Northern Exposure?";)

Lads I can't find anything about Zombies in Willie O'Dea's Handbook for Surviving Emergencies! I'm seriously panicked.

Where's my iodine tablets? I can't find my fvcking iodine tablets :eek::eek:

Oh if only we had a Zombie forum we'd know what to do.

Filling the bath with fresh water.

If movies have thought us anything, it's that it takes two weeks for it to run it's course and will take out 99.x% of the world's population. Dublin will still have traffic problems.

If the outbreak can be contained on that continent we should be fine ... for the time being at least.

Do the same as all emergencies;
1. Go inside.
2. Sit down and have a nice cup of tea.
3. Listen to RTE on the wireless.

Well if it happened in Canada then I still probably have enough time to get the bus to work, work for a while, go stack up on tins of tuna and sweetcorn, buy a large amount of drugs, get a few shovels (with nails sticking outta them) and download some porn before the internet becomes overloaded with posts by zombies making no sense at all.

Garrranddd.

SimpleSam06 · 10-05-2008 8:59am

I don't think flu like symptoms are much good for zombie plagues. A much better candidate are the rhabdoviridae family of viruses, which are resposible for both infectious hematopoietic necrosis viruses (blood rot) and the rabies virus.

Tell me thats not a winning combination!

and download some porn before the internet becomes overloaded with posts by zombies making no sense at all.

If you haven't already got terabytes of porn safely tucked away, just hand in your zombie survivalists badge now.

/thats my excuse and I'm sticking to it

So it's been a few hours since she died and there hasn't been any news reports of her re-animating. But would we ever find out though?

(we need a shifty eyes smiely!)

Mint Sauce · 10-05-2008 11:41am

Take car.
Go to mum's.
Kill Phil
Grab Liz, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.

How's that for a slice of fried gold?

Dave! · 10-05-2008 12:07pm

I've already killed my whole family to make sure they aren't zombies.

Now I'm going to kill myself.

10-05-2008 12:17pm

Now that's what I call forward-thinking.

Zombie-prevention is an easily ignored part of the battle against the undead.

Good point.

So we should herd everyone into camps and slowly kill them off in groups, thus diminishing their future numbers.

Redpunto · 10-05-2008 3:07pm

Europe should just blow up that continent,,,just to be on the safe side,,,oh crap,,,,forgot CIA have us bugged from space

The government has z day believers too and so does the army. Any such zombies would be put down in ten minutes as they all know to shoot for the head

The_B_Man · 12-05-2008 10:19am

Whats so bad about being a zombie anyway? Why dont we all just infect ourselves with Zombie-itis and get it over with!! That way we'll never have to worry about zombies coz we'll be all zombies outselves!!

Duggy747 · 12-05-2008 10:31am

I warned all ye bastards that this day would come!! Now I gotta defend myself through any means possible........anyone could be a zombie.......even you!! I've already begun taking zombies out (at least I think they were zombies, can't be too sure now!) and I'm hiding out on the roof of a Tesco, using the wi-fi to send out a signal of help.

Good thing I was vigilant on preparing for the zombie uprising:

Pump-action shotgun with 4 boxes of cartridges
Ammo-belt
Lots of tinned food
Tin-opener
Radio
48 pack of 2-litre water
Extra pair of underwear
Walkie-Talkies
A newly aquired friend (Bait, to you & me when I get into a sticky situation)

No melee weaponry ? What are you going to do when those shells run out ?

Yes, in my haste to get on top of Tesco I forgot to bring my machete and lawnmower. Anywho, I still have the shotgun to swing at the bastards + my newly-aquired friend will provide a tasty meal for them while I make my escape.

BeerWolf · 12-05-2008 11:16am

I used the Cashier -- the ones in Ashbourne Tesco are a bunch of stiffs...
