Question: How do you tell the real ones from the fake ones?

    I have heard of intergration plans in the last few weeks from a group of experts specialising on the habits of human relations with zombies and they remarked that peoples ability to look more and more like Zombies, not to mention smell and act like them, is growing by the second.

    My question is, how can I tell the difference between the key characteristics of your regular, coffee stimulated boardsie who hasn't slept in days and has lost track of time, to a zombie?

    Because, I don't want no court cases, you know.

    Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    The biting usually gives it away...

    You never know, biting isn't entirely exclusive to zombies, there are a few peckers among us as well. By then it may be too late anyway, I need to know before he has his grinders on my neck!

    Well it is the Irish courts! I'll hit them in the legs and if they continue, I'll have to use the shotgun

    Well in "World War Z", there was a category of people who started acting like Z's (biting and all), and sometimes they had to be put down.

    Other times, they were there own worst enemy, and the Z's took them.

    And, as far as I remember, some governments did try to reprogramme them back into functioning humans.

    Not sure about the lot you mentioned though, I reckon that they may well be a lost cause (now let me get back to my life of ant-like conformity...)!

    The official term for them is Quisling.

    they would if they sneezed, thats very hard not to do. Or if they got a fright. Or if you pop a pimple near your lip or nose, that makes you blink, makes my eyes water too.

    Quislings may sneeze, but what are the chances you'd be lucky enough to see it happen?

    Also, Quislings don't get frights! :rolleyes:

    Could you possibly incorporate this method into your B.A.P.S system, seeker! :D

    ...just to clear up, do you usually pop pimples in front of people and make them cry? ;)

    Scorched earth policy is the only way to go. Kill and burn anything that moves in the affected area. A few innocents may die but thousands more will be saved.

    Easier said than done, I think. The trouble with this policy (which I like...) is that if the infection is so widespread that a scorched earth policy would do more long term damage than good...
